Makeup Review and Look: CoverGirl Clean Sensitive Skin Foundation

Hello my dears, today we are back with a more typical blog post. As I am still feeling most under the weather it is not the typical Monday mode and is just kind of a fun product review. The rest of this week will most likely be a tad random and then next week I will be introducing my typical weekly schedule!! Are you as excited as I am?? Without further ado, let's jump into my review of CoverGirl's Clean Sensitive Skin foundation.

Let me apologize in advance for the lower quality photos as these were taken in poor light on my iPhone. 

I was at Walgreens today and of course, I had to stop by the makeup to see if there were any sales. I came across this foundation that I had never used. Best of all, it was on sale for $3.99. To be honest, I have never had the best luck with the traditional liquid foundation and have stuck more to bb creams and cream or mousse foundations. I was intrigued to try this because it was a sensitive skin formula. 

Off the bat, I had an issue with the design of the bottle. There was no pump or anything and I had to shake the bottle for about 5 minutes to get the slightest amount out and then had to repeat. The flaw in the design is a minor detail to me. 

The formula was very creamy which was a plus to me. I used my Real Techniques Expert Face brush to apply and it went on very smoothly. It covered the redness of my skin very well which is always a big concern for me. I would say the coverage is about medium which is perfect for me on a regular day. It applied quickly and easily and I was already pleased.

I loved the finish and the coverage and I think it sat well on my skin. It was fairly matte but still looked natural. I am definitely going to be using this foundation and highly recommend it. 

I then went and completed the look the way I typically would. 

I started by using my DreamLumi concealer. 

Next I set it with my All About Matt translucent powder.

My next step was to add bronzer. I use the bronzer from my Sephoa Palette. (The top of the photo)

To complete my face I used a touch of blush, also from the same palette. (The bottom color in the photo)

Finally I finished my look with some eyeliner (Ulta Gel liner in Primetime), a touch of mascara (Benefit They're Real) and some lipstick (Ulta Lipstick in 237). 

It is a fairly simple and clean look but I love it. If I am going out during the day and wearing makeup, I typically wear a look like this. 

I hope you are having a fantastic Monday and I will talk to you tomorrow.

P.S. In just a little bit I will be posting the weekly schedule that I will be using starting next week.
