Blackout Curtains

Im thinking of buyins some cream ‘blackout’ curtain linings. Do they really work? or should i look for black ?
I have cream curtains so cream lining would be better but do they really shut the light out as well as black ones would?
it will work very well, I had yellow curtains with a cream blackout lining and it does work. the window was south facing which meant the sun made the room hot in the summer until I got the b/o linings, now its dark and cool
