| lawgirl's Full Review: Cover Girl Ultimate Finish |
For those of you that know me best (and have read some of my epinions) you know that in the makeup category I am in constant search for the perfect foundation. I have acne (yes still at the age of 26) and I have a hard time finding a foundation that will meet my coverage needs as well as not clog my pores. Well, friends, I think I've found it!
Nice price.
I have paid up to $30 for a bottle of makeup. Well, now I am looking for a job and looking for foundation at Walgreens. Luckily for me, I had a free sample coupon for this foundation. I got a sample in "Ivory" and now I am hooked! I have purchased this at drugstore.com for $5.69 and Walgreens for $6.50.
Light, smooth and creamy!
This foundation feels like buttah. Well, not really, but it makes me want to say so because I love it so much. It is very, very smooth. It is soft and goes on so smooth. I have had no problems getting even coverage and it is very easy to smooth out over your face. It firms almost immediately leaving a smooth and soft foundation on your face. It also sets up and feels very light on your face. I never notice I even have it on. It gives you that soft-to-the-touch feeling you get when you put your powder on- only you don't have to fool with foundation! This is an all-in-one and I love it.
Coverage.
This makeup feels so smooth going on and the coverage is fabulous. You never look completely natural and it gives you very uniform coverage. It never forms blotches or cakes in one place or the other. And I rarely need a concealer. It is super fast and I love that as well. Just one application and you are out the door!
The coverage is so great that I even use it underneath my eyes. It will give you a perfectly even face- you can put it everywhere and it will look absolutely natural. It also blends very well and I never notice any lines around my chin or anywhere else.
Long lasting.
Having oily skin, I usually wear makeup off in no time. I have not had this problem at all with this makeup. I usually do a touchup after 5-6 hours if it needs it, but it usually doesn't need any touchup.
Soft applicator.
This comes with a very soft sponge applicator that gives you flawless coverage everytime. I love it! It makes you like putting on your makeup because it is so soft and gives you such a flawless look. And the sponge fits in the case separarately from the makeup so it stays out of the way and stays clean.
Anything I don't like?
The only problem that I have had is that if you have dry patches of skin (I do in places from using acne meds that dry out parts of your skin) this makeup might not work perfectly. It tends to give you that made up look in those places. But other than that- I think this stuff is great!
