Review: Covergirl foundation
I recently found myself in need of a new foundation, and decided to give cover girl's outlast, stay fabulous 3 in 1 foundation, as I had seen some beauty bloggers giving it a go.
I grabbed mine in the tone 'buff beige' and payed $18NZD for it, which isn't too bad, as I think it generally retails for around $20NZD. In giving a review of this, my opinion are mixed. I found that it has a nice light weight feel to it, a handy pump applicator and the colour I picked matched my skin perfectly, which is something I often struggle with. However, from first application I really struggled in applying it. I varied between flat top brushes, foundation brushes and the lot before i moved on to a blending sponge from Beauty Bay (the same shape as a beauty blender, but not the same size). this sponge was the only thing that I could use to get the foundation to evenly settle across my face without streaking or leaving patches. I also found that the coverage varied between light-to-medium coverage when I personally prefer a medium-to-full coverage.
However, despite these few issues, I do find myself liking this product, if used with a tear-drop sponge, and experimented with a few times to get the right technique.
Hoped this helped, and thanks for reading :)
Love Becca,
