Do you ever wonder what is next?
I mean first there was BB Creams (Beauty Balm) and CC Cream (Complexion Corrector), 
alphabetically it would be DD wouldn't it? 
DD - Dullness Defeater, I probably should learn to think internally as I've most likely just given a company an idea haha! Only kidding but should you ever see a Dullness Defeater remember where you heard it first!
Anyway I have another CC Cream offering for you this time in the form of Nip + Fab CC Cream.

To the best of my knowledge Nip + Fab CC Cream comes in three shade options light, medium and dark.
I was sent the light shade to put to the test and although a little too light for me to use in the typical sense it will be a good match for most light to light medium skin tones. I must warn that although dubbed light it may be a little too warm and orange in tone for fair complexions, in my opinion it should be a good match for those around the NC20-25 mark in MAC foundations.

Nip + Fab's CC Cream promises to be more than just a tinted moisturiser with the addition of an SPF 30, Hyaluronic Acid, Light Diffusing Pigments and Oat Extract. Texture wise the Nip + Fab CC Cream is quite loose and runny in consistency and akin to a liquid foundation. Sadly the coverage isn't as wonderful as the official blurb leads you to believe and is pretty much a glorified tinted moisturiser. I find it to be great for evening out the skin tone and offering a natural finish but if you have any flaws such as blemishes and scarring you will need to at least pair it with a concealer, oily skins will have to set this CC Cream with a powder otherwise it will turn shiny as well as slipping and sliding pretty quickly but on dry skin the highly moisturising formula would be a dream. Once set with powder it wore a little shy of six hours on my oily skin.

Sadly I don't really rate Nip + Fab CC Cream all that highly and find it to be just another run of the mill offering much like the majority of the CC and BB Creams out there. I know I have said it numerous times but so far nothing has come close to rivaling Clinique's CC Cream which you can read about here - link.
