I don't know who told CoverGirl that ivory was basically beige, but I believe they should be fired. I've always had problems finding my perfect match in this line, and it really sucks when the lightest shade is too dark for you! I applied this foundation using my beauty blender, and it went on like a dream. If I disregarded the fact that it wasn't my shade, it looked pretty dang flawless. This however did not last long as the beigh-ish color on my skin began to oxidize. I must have looked insane to the people who saw me out grocery shopping! Makeup faux pas aisle one! The coverage was nice, it didn't break down funny on my skin and as I said it looked pretty flawless... had it not been too dark and then even oxidize on my  skin. This experience almost made me want to give up the hunt for my holy grail foundation. Thankfully I was able to break that mood and test even more.

This is my holy-grail product, and I use around the shade 825 (depending on how tan I am). I use a moistened makeup sponge to apply and use translucent powder over it. I've always suffered from acne, and this foundation flawlessly covers my blemishes. It truly does stay on all day and you don't have to use concealer with it. It is very thick, full coverage, so it isn't for everybody. However, I don't think it feels heavy or thick on my face. It also has SPF built in, and it definitely protects well against the sun because I have never gotten a sunburn on my face while wearing it. Good price, and lasts a long time. 

I applied this foundation with a beauty blender, it was NOT full coverage and did not act as a concealer. My under eye circles show through. The finish is nice- almost a velvety finish. My bronzer and blush blended well on top of it. There is no smell and the pump is super nice. I just prefer a more medium/full coverage foundation. I had to really work to get the coverage I needed for the day. It does seem to be transfer proof which is a big plus in my book.

It’s more natural to medium coverage so if you’re into real full coverage then I wouldn’t really suggest this, I mean you can build up so the coverage can be full but I have other foundations that just work so easily and not put in so much effort for full coverage. This is a really great drugstore foundation and is sooo worth the money but I just really love to have full coverage though. I do have oily to combination skin and it’s great on my skin, also keep in mind I have REALLY sensitive skin and not even ONE breakout.

I use this everyday. Out of all the foundations I’ve tried, both high end and drugstore, it works the best with my skin. It is more on the matte side and lasts most of the day. It looks natural on the skin, especially with the proper primer and moisturizer underneath. You don’t need to use more than one pump, and oftentimes a little less will work just fine; any more than that and you risk it accentuating your pores. The only issue I have with it is if I don’t blend it out enough and/or I use too much it will oxidize into a gross sherbet-orangey color.

This foundation has good coverage and lasts pretty well throughout the day. It is easy o apply and blends well. I love how this has a pump to make things easier. However as it oxidized it just turned pink on me. My sister in law had the same issue with hers as well and we are completely different skin tones and undertones. I am more of a light to medium skin tone with warm undertones and she is fair with cool undertones. And since trying out other foundations I will not be repurchasing this or giving this another shot. I have since found other foundations that I love more that work better for me and do not turn me pink as the day goes on. I have also tried a few different shades with this foundation and it all did the same. If this didn't always turn me pink then this would be such an amazing foundation, but I just cannot seem to find a shade that won't turn me pink, so I have just given up on this foundation and now use others I know that don't turn me pink.

Holy grail foundation for my oily skin ! This lasts on me the whole day and I love how its a matte finish ! It a medium coverage but it can easily be layered to get more full coverage . If you want a more fuller coverage use a brush ( but for me I always use a beauty blender or my real techniques sponge so it gives me more of a medium coverage for everyday use ) . Also this foundation is very lightweight and it doesn’t break my skin out even though I have oily skin . Already have repurchased it again and again because I love it so much

I was a bit skeptical at first using this product. Usually Covergirl and me do not get along, especially their mascaras and eye liners. BUT, this foundation is AMAZING!! You literally get full coverage, even without a primer to start with!! I use a blender to put mine on. Love the matte finish, and love that it does not feel heavy on my face! Very affordable as well. I think I have found my new favorite department store foundation for every day wear. I save my Girgo Armni Power HD for special occasions, and this is pretty much on par with it!! Love it and so happy i purchased this.

I have always had trouble when it comes to finding the perfect foundation. I would spend up to $50 for a bottle that would only last me three months. One day I borrowed this foundation from a friend and it changed the game! It is super affordable and it goes on so smoothly. It doesn't leave streaks and it accepts my powered foundation perfectly. If you are looking for a high-quality foundation at a really good price, this is the one for you. 

After years of searching for a foundation that could stand up to my super oily skin, I've finally found "the one"!!!!
Seriously! This is the one and only foundation that does not melt off of my face and look terrible after a 4-5 hours of wear! It applies flawlessly and gives me an airbrushed look. It's medium-full coverage, but feels feather light on my skin! Tries down to a natural matte texture that does not budge! it lasts all day without going anywhere and I can even go the whole day without feeling like I need to blot! I'm used to being so oily that I need to blot just after an hour or two of wear, ad by the end of my work shift my makeup would be practically gone! I've tried Kat Von D, Maybeline Fit Me!, Loreal matte foundation, Nyx foundation drops, makeup forever, etc. and they've all let me down! Cover Girl Is the absolute shiz-nit for oily skin! Seriously, you gotta try it!
