Recent skin research has revealed that UV rays and other external stimuli cause significant stress to the skin, accelerating aging. While skincare used to focus on repairing damaged skin at night, today's focus is shifting to a daytime approach, with a focus on protecting skin from damage as much as possible and daytime care essential. The concept of whitening has also shifted to proactive care, emphasizing that "rather than treating existing problems, it's important to prevent and prevent them from occurring, and to do everything we can to protect skin." This is why CC creams' all-around, full-power daytime skincare provides maximum protection for beautiful skin. This can be considered the most aggressive whitening care available.

We've carefully selected four CC creams from this spring's lineup that deliver maximum protection for beautiful skin while also creating a healthy, radiant complexion. Let's take a closer look at each product's protective effects and the beauty-enhancing skin concepts they aim for. ■Helena Rubinstein Replasty CC+
Developed in collaboration with La Clinique de Montreux in Switzerland, this CC cream from the Replasty line brightens and corrects dull, dull complexions. Not only does it have a beige-rosé color, but it also uses light-reflection control technology to enhance saturation while enhancing radiance. It also offers the highest level of UVA and UVB protection, active oxygen care, and anti-aging benefits. (SPF50 PA++++ / Release Date: April 22 / 40mL / ¥12,000)
■Guerlain Perle Blanc CC Cream
The light beige cream color covers uneven skin tone and redness, while its texture smooths out unevenness on the skin's surface. It protects against stressors such as UVA and UVB rays, other light sources, pollutants, and extreme temperatures. It also balances skin's moisture and oil levels. Since it's part of a whitening line, it also contains a unique whitening ingredient made with pearl extract. (SPF30 PA+++/30mL/7,000 yen)
■ CHANEL CC Cream 50
Chanel, which pioneered the CC cream market in 2013 and created a huge buzz, has already announced a revamped version this spring. Its UVA and B protection index has been raised to its highest level, and it also boasts ingredients that protect against active oxygen and air pollution, moisturizing ingredients, a smoother fit, and longer wear time. Available in two shades, 10 and 20, you can find the one that best suits your skin. (SPF50 PA++++/30mL/6,300 yen)
■ SK-II Aura Activator CC Cream
The brilliance of two pearlescent ingredients that create a pearlescent sheen and the translucent texture give your skin a natural, radiant, natural look. It adheres perfectly to the skin, providing the highest level of protection against UVA and UVB rays in SK-II's history, while also providing long-lasting moisture and achieving a clearer complexion with continued use, aiming to improve the skin's overall appearance.
