Covergirl Natureluxe foundation


I've been really wanting to try something that's more light weight and doesn't make my skin look like it obviously has makeup on it. I decided to try the new covergirl Natureluxe in alabaster (305) the lightest shade they make.
I have to say I'm pretty happy it docent actually make my skin look pink, because that's usually a huge issue with drugstore foundations for me. It also smells really good, but not a strong smell like their blushes, its smells fresh and summery.
The only thing i don't like about this foundation is the fact i find it doesn't last very long, which for me is a problem since i have dry skin AND i set it with a powder, so i can't imagine how it will be for oily skin. Other then that i love how light it is and it doesn't make my dry skin look dull or cakey(which is a nice change). It cost me around $14 which is ridiculous, and if i were to buy this again i would never spend that much for it, its not that special. Also i had to go to 3 different stores before actually finding one that carried the lightest shade, which happened to be the most expensive of the three stores...

  1. I've been wondering about this product for awhile now. Thanks so much for the review, I think I'll pass now. I really don't like when companies jack up their price just bc the product is "new". And the sad truth it's probably only 1% natural ingredients or something crazy like that!

  2. So true! I'm thinking the hard candy tinted moisturizer would of worked better for me, and cheaper!

  6. I've been wanting to try this one for a while. It is oddly pricey, so I have been pretty hesitant. If I find it on sale it might be a go though. I too have dry pale skin, that has more yellow than pink undertones. You could be my perfect source for product testimonials in the future. :)
