Remember those filmy Covergirl foundations I mentioned before? Cover Girl Clean Makeup Oil Control Liquid Foundation is the definition of my problem with the brand. This product provides less coverage than most concealers, let alone foundations. The watery formula doesn’t even blend well! On the (extremely nominal nearing nonexistent) plus side, it feels silky when used and it might make a decent concealer - frankly, this foundation’s so thin you could easily make the color work even if you had the wrong shade. (I bought Classic Ivory #510.) Greeeeat. Now I have emergency issue concealer. If I’m ever trapped in some region where I don’t have access to a CVS or three dollars, I know I can count on Covergirl to kind of maybe halfway take care of my blemishes. From the Cover Girl signature twist-top wannabe-glass bottle to the substandard quality and even the lukewarm outdated marketing, everything about this product seems cheap.
The verdict: 1/5 stars - I’d give it zero stars but I didn’t build the dropdown menu on the right to support such a thing.
You’ll love it if: You’re trapped in some region where you don’t have access to a CVS or three dollars. Well, maybe not love.
You’ll hate it if: You have taste.
Think of a tingly sensation on your face and a strong eucalyptus smell… wearing this stuff is like wearing medicated chest rub on your face! It overpowers your perfume if a person leans in. Coverage is okay.
