Hello Dolls,
About two days ago, I decided that since I am running out of my Sephora Collection foundation and only have a sample of MACS Studio Sculpt, I would go out and see if I can find a good, affordable, drug store foundation. So, I went to my local CVS and browsed the cosmetic isles looking for different foundations, their prices, and if they had my color.
Before I picked up the Cover Girl Clean foundation, I stopped by L'Oreal's True Color Match foundation and Black Radiance. The L'Oreal True Color Match collection had my color (Nut Brown, i think) but it was a bit pricey for what I wanted to pay for a drugstore foundation. It retailed at about $11 if I can remember. The Black Radiance foundation was about $5, but I hadn't heard anything about the product, so I decided to continue looking.
Came across the Cover Girl Clean foundation, and decided to give it a try! If I am not mistaken they have three different categories for their foundation, which include normal skin, sensitive skin and oil control. I went with normal skin, although my skin tends to get oily at times. But that's nothing that a great setting powder or mattifying ointment couldn't solve.
I used the product today and I actually like it. For an every day use I would use this foundation. You don't need a lot of product, just a great foundation/blending brush to apply it. The coverage was good, but not as great as the coverage I get from using brands like NARS, MAC, and Cover FX. But overall the foundation gave me good coverage and a fresh face. If I was going out somewhere special or was taking lots of pictures, I would probably end up going with a high-end foundation, but for everyday use this is a great product. My face looked fresh and smooth, without looking like I had on foundation.
Check out below, what the contents of the bottle state:
The color I chose for my skin was 165 TAWNY. Which is the last color under the normal skin collection.
I recommend browsing through your local CVS or any drugstore that has a cosmetics section and just see what they have to offer!
