The title says it all.
I've never had any luck finding a good powder foundation from the drugstore. So, I am over the moon about finally finding one that exceeds all my expectations !
Shade & FormulaThe
Covergirl Tru Blend Minerals Pressed Mineral Foundation in
04 - Soft Honey is a near perfect match for my NC 40 skin tone. It looks a lot darker in the compact but its the glue to bringing together my dark chin with the rest of face which a couple of shades lighter.
This is a sheer to light foundation - not something that gives a whole lot coverage. If you
are looking to hide blemishes or acne scars this alone may not be enough. This over a liquid or creme foundation will work better.
I am tinted moisturizer kinda girl so all I want from a powder foundation is to
- help even skin tone
- be light weight
- keep me looking fresh all day long.
I get all this and more !
Lookin Clean & Fresh, Man !I wore the foundation this past weekend over my
Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel and got complimented ( from a boy, no less !) on how
clean my face looked. It must have been good right coz we all know boys never notice anything.
If you have uneven skin tone and had a bout of dry skin -
clean sounds mega fantastic to your ears . After almost 3 hours of wearing I still had a friend tell me that she wished she looked as
fresh as I did. And then I told her I was testing a new foundation. Everybody gave huge points ! And I do too.
I wear all my powder foundation over a primer so they spread well. But this one does great over just a moisturizer. Even in Texan 100 degree weather I looked great for
at least four - five hours. At the end of it I did
a mini touch up with my Cover
Fx Kabuki Brush (the best). The brush that comes with the product is useless.
The
Covergirl Tru Blend Minerals Pressed Mineral Foundation can be found at all drugstores and
Walmart for $10.11.

I have a huge thing for medical dramas. Most keep me interested but this one has to be the best yet ! Finally a true show where unlike
HouseMD the first diagnosis is not Lupus for everything. Plus how adorable are the doctors ! And they have the best personalities to match !
Dr.
