![]() ![]() From reading other reviews, it looks like I did some stuff differently compared to other users. While I do like this foundation, I do want to offer some advice to ensure you get the best benefits. The only exception is Physician’s Formula, but it still looks extremely cakey.įortunately, the Simply Ageless foundation hasn’t broken out my skin at all! Let’s hope it stays that way when I wear this foundation again. CoverGirl, Revlon, L’Oreal, they all broke my skin out. I had to stop wearing all drugstore foundations because it would break out my skin. If foundations tend to oxidize on your skin, I suggest keeping that in mind before buying this foundation. I didn’t have this issue, but I also don’t have that problem too often. I do want to point out that some reviewers complained about this foundation oxidizing. While the weather is getting cooler here in Florida, all foundations have to be put through the “swamp heat” test before I can truly say whether or not they last. I do want to mention that I stayed home last night. ![]() It didn’t fade, oxidize, or really change in any way. I wore this foundation for several hours, and it lasted well. Since when were foundations scented? I don’t struggle with fragrance sensitivities, but I know others do, so that would be the main thing to consider when buying the foundation. It wasn’t a big drawback for me but I was confused by it. It has a very fresh, almost laundry-like scent. The main drawback for many people is the scent. And for younger people, it’s especially great if you have acne scars like me. While the foundation is marketed to mature women, I think this is a great foundation if you want natural-looking coverage. It looked a little cakey at first, but all of that went away.Įven though I went over it with a concealer, the foundation did a great job at disguising my acne. As I stated previously, the foundation blurred my acne scars. I really like that even though my skin is more on the dry side, I don’t like dewy finishes. I’m definitely going to use this foundation up! FinishĮven though this is a moisturizing foundation, it has a matte finish. ![]() Yet, this foundation really blurred the appearance of my acne scars very well, better than my Make Up For Ever foundation. I only used a basic Mac primer with this foundation, no blur or pore minimizing primer at all. I’m most impressed with its blurring powers. I was able to cover up a zit without using concealer. I would say it’s medium-to-full and blendable. I’m really impressed with the coverage here. However, that goes away when you blend out the foundation. I noticed the foundation looked chalky and cakey when I first applied it. The main thing that threw me off at first was the cakiness. Make Up For Ever’s HD Foundation has the same silicone as its first ingredient, and I’ve been using that foundation for years. It’s actually not surprising to see silicone-based foundations. While it doesn’t pose a risk to your health, it may cause mild irritation in some. Silicones give the foundation that rich feeling and they blend into your skin well. The reason for the thick consistency is the first ingredient Cyclopentasiloxane, a silicone. However, I also saw reviewers apply it with a Beauty Blender and had beautiful results. I would use a clean foundation brush with this foundation. ![]() Because the formula is thick, it does take a bit to blend. I put two pumps of it on my wrist, and that was even too much. While it’s slightly chalky looking at first, it does blend into my skin after a bit. I just so happened to choose the perfect one, 220 Creamy Natural. I had to hold the bottom of the bottle up to my face in whatever mirror I could find to match my shade. Walgreens had no open samples, and there were hardly any mirrors around. My biggest qualm with CoverGirl is they offer no resources to find your shade. Let’s put it this way, the Sephora foundation I like to use is only a little more expensive than this one. This foundation is a little more expensive than typical CoverGirl foundations - I paid $18. I bought this foundation at my local Walgreens. Buying the FoundationĬoverGirl is a very easy brand to find just about anywhere. Your face will look smooth and flawless, giving anyone a more youthful appearance. The foundation is made with ingredients such as vitamin C and hyaluronic acid, so your skin is hydrated and radiant. The CoverGirl website promises the foundation will give wearers a youthful glow and reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
