I hadn't really given Cover FX much thought as a brand until the beginning of this year really. I had tried a few of their products but I guess there very simple marketing and almost plain products never really shouted BUY ME! Granted they are plain but actually I am a big believer in simple is often best and Cover FX certainly has that covered,
see what I did there? So onto my point, over the past few months I've decided to give my makeup routine a shake up and try some products from a few new brands to me. I have been trying out a primer, foundation and 'skincare' item from the range, and I have to say I am rather impressed. So lets start with the primer, I deal with a little redness in my skin so I was interested in trying the
Calming number and I have to say it is quite wonderful indeed. The creamy hydrating formula melts into the skin like a moisturiser but leaves a smooth feeling that isn't sticky or slick which I love. In terms of reducing the redness I think it does a little, but who knows how as it doesn't have any tint or colour correcting properties to it. I have also found it locks my makeup in a good few hours longer than if I weren't to use it. I love a good base and trying foundations is one of my favourite past times,
yes yes I am sad. The
Natural Finish Oil Free Foundation isn't something I would usually go for, i.e if it doesn't say glow in the title then I m not interested but I am so glad I tried it as it it something a little special. It has an amazing coverage with a natural finish that isn't to matte which my dry skin loves! It glides on without any effort and would make the perfect everyday foundation if you like something that covers but looks natural, oh and the staying power is superb. Basically in short a great all rounder foundation that will work on all skin types. Lastly we have my favourite product of the three and it's the
Custom Infusion Drops in F+ Neroli Hydrating. This oil type of infusion product can be mixed with pretty much anything including skincare and makeup, but I love mixing it with foundations the most. Because of my dry skin I find some foundations a right pain in the bum to blend out without catching or looking streaky sometimes, especially if they are more on the matte side of things. One or two drops of this and any foundation blends like a dream, it may make them a little dewier but nothing noticeable. I believe they were designed to be mixed with the
Custom Cover Drops to create your perfect base and so they come in a few different varieties from Radiance to Anti-Aging. Have you dipped your toe in the Cover FX pool, if so what shall I get next? Love...
