My
experience with the product:
This foundation was gifted to
me by my cousin who lives in the U.S. This particular foundation however is not
available in India. CoverGirl Clean Liquid Makeup Foundation is available in
three variants: Oil Control, Sensitive Skin and Normal Skin. Each variant has a
wide range shades to choose from. I own the Sensitive Skin variant in the shade
260 Classic Tan which is a bit dark for my actual skin tone. The beige shade
would suit me better. So I do not use this foundation on a regular basis.
The foundation is packaged in a
glass bottle having a screw cap. I dislike the packaging as taking out the
product from the glass bottle is a pain!
The foundation is not very
runny in consistency. It has a mousse type of texture. It takes around two
minutes to dry up once it is applied on the face. This foundation gives medium
coverage which is decent enough. The finish is somewhat dewy. Unfortunately my
face turns oily within two hours on application of this foundation (I have very
oily skin). If I use a compact over this foundation then my skin remains oil
free for around 3 to 4 hours at the most. A compact is a must in order to
control shine.
The best thing about this
foundation is that it lasts all day long and does not oxidize. It also did not
cause any breakouts. I like the way it evens out my skin tone. This foundation
is more suitable for use during winter when my skin tends to get dry and this
foundation will moisturize it well. This is a big no if you are oily skinned.
The oil control variant will work better for those of you having oily skin. If
you have sensitive skin which is not on the oilier side then this sensitive
variant will work well.
In conclusion, I would say it
is an okay product. I would have used this on a regular basis if the shade was
a good match for my skin tone.
