Covergirl Ready, Set, Gorgeous Foundation + Concealer | FIRST IMPRESSION

Hello! For ages I have heard EleventhGorgeous rave about Covergirl’s new foundation “Ready, Set, Gorgeous!” It has just recently arrived in Australia and, as it was 50% off at Woolworths (and still is as this goes up), I thought I would pick up the foundation and concealer and do a first impression on them both!

Packaging


I personally hate when people talk about the packaging as to me it isn’t that important, but this tube is pretty cute and is perfect for travel! I love it when foundation isn’t in a glass tube as I am so clumsy and will probably drop one, one day.

What It Claims


The Foundation: 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. It is oil free, won’t clog pores, and is suitable for sensitive skin.

The Concealer: Helps conceal dark circles and imperfections in an instant! The lightweight formula glides on smoothly, blends easily, and lasts all day. It is oil free, won’t clog pores, and is dermatologically tested.

My Review

Pls no judging for my non-matching eyebrow face
I picked up the shade 115 Buff Beige in the foundation which perfectly matches my skin tone, it has yellow undertones but isn’t orangey-the perfect shade! It’s in between a thick consistency and a thin consistency-also perfect. The foundation is definitely a medium coverage, and isn’t really buildable to a high coverage. I like this because it feels natural on the skin, still looks like skin but covers my acne well, which is a big thumbs up from me. I applied this with a sponge but I have to say I think it would be amazing applied with an applicator.

The concealer, which I got in the shade “Light, Pale” has a dofer applicator, which is my favourite for concealers. It’s a semi-thick look of a consistency but it is in between, like the foundation. It’s quite light but doesn’t cover huge dark circles, but it does a fair enough job. It blends well into my pimples well too, and covers up the redness of them. It has a natural finish and sinks into the skin a bit.

Overall


I would recommend this foundation as the natural, skin-like finish is perfect for all skin tones. The tube is perfect for travel and for $16.99 AUD RRP I would pick it up! As for the concealer, I would give it a miss as there are much better concealers out there.



Have a great day xx
