Product Review: Covergirl Ready, Set, Gorgeous Foundation


Hi readers! It's been a long time since I've last posted huh? Well don't you worry! On today's post we will be reviewing drugstore brand Covergirl's "Ready, Set Gorgeous" Foundation.

 The claims of this foundation is:
One simple step for a flawless, natural look that lasts all day. The formula blends easily to even skin tone and reduces shine all day. 
  • Oil Free 
  • Won't clog pores
  • Suitable for sensitive skin
  • Lasts all day 


Packaging:
  • 30mls of product
  • Translucent Plastic Squeezable tube
Let's see if this works?

Before Application
Bare face, no primers have been applied. Apologies, I am in the middle of a breakout, but hey! It's the perfect timing to test the coverage power of this foundation.
Initial Application
1 Layer
  • Smooth to blend 
  • Thick formula 
  • Evens skin tone - Covers redness, scarring and hyper pigmentation
  • Luminous Finish
  • Buildable coverage
  • Skin like finish - skins textures (pores) are visible
  • Clings to dry spots - my under eye area

 After Applying The Rest Of My Makeup
 


 End Of Day - 12 Hours Later
  • A little bit of visible shine - not overly
  • Creased along my nostrils
  • Coverage is still in tacked 
  • After my natural oils kicked in I noticed that the foundation no longer seemed to be clinging to any dry areas
  • Patchy along my nose where my glasses touch my face - which is a usual with me and unset foundation. 

Final Thoughts?
  • Natural Look? You can still see your skins texture and it leaves a nice bounce to your skin that gives it a very natural finish. 
  • Lasts All Day?  It lasted 12 hrs!
  • Blends Well? Definitely blends well, took me under a minute to do my whole base. 
  • Reduces shine all day? I am definitely impressed with how it maintained my shine. By the 8th hour I'm usually fighting to find blotting paper or compact powder to touch up - but with this foundation I didn't find myself doing that. 
In all honesty, I am very impressed by how this foundation sets and wears - definitely a great everyday foundation for work or running errands.

DIY Make Up Brush Cleaner

Keeping your make up tools clean is a very important step when it comes to make up and skin care.  I do a regular spot clean, but spot cleaning isn't enough. Without deep cleaning your make up brushes they will hoard and make the perfect home for bacteria - a big no no for your skins well being.  Not only do you want a deep cleaning solution that will get the most deepest and stubborn of make up out, but one that is soft and gentle on the bristles.  I am a huge fan of AprilJustinTV on youtube (yes this story is going somewhere) and she always talks about this home made solution she found on the internet and it works absolute wonders for her make up brushes. I had to google it.  It turned out so great, cleaning my brushes has never been any easier. Takes less than half the time it use to. I just have to share the DIY solution with you guys!   What You Will Need: - Your brushes that need a good clean - Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Soap (I prefer our ge...
