Cover Fx Powder Foundation Review

Hi dolls, it's Onyxbeauty 1988 And I am here with another foundation review I picked up the Cover FX Powder FX compact foundation at Sephora the other day so you guys know I’m a bit of a foundation junkie but I’m also someone who suffers from acne prone skin, so I do have to be careful what i put on my skin so when i was looking around Sephora i was actually there looking for a good navy blue eyeshadow because in my head I’m like fantasizing about this really cute navy blue smokey eye. and then i realized like i don't have any really good navy blue eye shadows in my own personal collection because usually i wear bronzes and browns and neutral colors, earthy tones like that. sooo, I was like i need to kick it up a notch and i thought about it, if i'm going to get eyeshadow i have't to get Nars if i want a really good pigmented navy blue eyeshadow. so thats what i got and love it but anywho, i actually wasn't even looking at the Cover FX because of the fact that its for tattoo cover up and i have a lot of clients that I do tattoo cover up on or photoshoots and weddings and different things, so i was like okay let me go ahead check this out and the process of doing that i saw their foundations so I like i'll give it a try so that foundation claims that it is dermatologist's first choice provides max coverage for normal to oily skin it's also for sensitive and acne prone skin and it's free of parabins, oils, wax and fragrance. I was like heck yeah, right?! No I absolutely do not like this foundation. I feel like my face looks cakey and I hate that and its lighter I just don't like this foundation and I really tried to like it. You can apply this foundation wet or dry. I tried it both ways. Neither way came out with the result i liked, i just looked cakey to me. like it looked ashy to me. and I really not have had good luck with powder foundations, outside of my MAC Studio Fix foundation the powder I absolutely love that one and it's completely awesome. but in the summer it's just too light on my skin because it only goes up to a NW50 and in the summer i'm a NW55 so i thought that this may be like a nice, light powder form foundation definitely you're not going to get a dewy finish to it, its going to be mat. My problem with it is a little bit too matte for me. It's almost to the point where, in my opinion, looks a bit ashy. I mean you guys can actually Look at my face and look at my chest here, I mean it looks way just way way lighter than he rest of my body, I dont like that It did look different in Sephora when i tried it on that is the thing that is kind of deceiving especially about foundations that sometimes in the store its looks different under their lighting I knew better, I should have stepped outside and saw how it looked outside but I didnt and that's my fault I'm going to be returning this to Sephora and getting something else cuz this is just not going to cut it. and i also have experienced a little bit of breakout because of using this foundation and you know that for me even if it was the correct color thats a really big issue for me. and i dont want anything thats going to make it flare up, but it could just be my skin other people may have great results with because they do claim for acne prone skin so it is $35 and come with a applicator, regular foam applicator and the way the foundation looks is um It’s just a compact, a regular compact Makeup compact And There’s a nice amount of product in there I have only Used in a couple times And all the times I used it I didn’t like it But I imagine a powder like this would last you a long time like the MAC Studio Fix does But I’m not going to find out. It is SPF 10 So it does have some sunscreen protection in it so That is good. I think you need a little bit higher than 10 I'm guilty of not wearing sunscreen unless it’s in my foundation, so Most of the MAC foundations that I have are between 15 and 30 SPF So that's where i get my sunscreen protection from and i know it’s terrible You should wear Sunscreen even if you're dark I definitely should be doing that And maybe i will one day On paper this sounds Like a fantabulous foundation But just for me it didn’t work. So let me know if you've tried this foundation and what you think of it Below in the comments Thank you guys for watching as always. dont forget to subscribe above if you havent already and also like and comment and all that good stuff and follow me on facebook and twitter, /onyxbeauty1988 and i will see you guys on Wednesday for a How To Become a Makeup Artist video See you guys then.
