Collection Cosmetics Cover And Go Concealer and Foundation Duo in Fair 3 Review


Here's a review on Collection Cosmetics Cover and Go Concealer and Foundation Duo in Fair 3.

THE VERDICT:

The hardest part about being a beauty junkie is you can't leave without bringing all your favorite products. Best case study would be me, for one: My everyday makeup kit occupies 50% of my bag and whenever I'd travel, I bring three kits chock- full of beauty products (full- sized, to be specific) from makeup to toiletries-makeup brushes not included. I'm vain, yes you could say that, but the main reason I guess would be I just feel happy when I see tons of beauty products right in front of me. :D Weird I know.

This is why I appreciate innovative products like this one called Cover and Go Concealer and Foundation duo from Collection Cosmetics-Ah, it contains two of my essential makeup products. Delight! I anticipate the day when there'll be a swiss army knife type of packaging for beauty products so I can lighten up my daily bag load and make more room for shopping during traveling.

Anyway, let's take a look at this product.

COLLECTION COSMETICS COVER AND GO CONCEALER AND FOUNDATION DUO IN FAIR 3 IN DETAIL

Collection Cosmetics described this product as a daily makeup product for complete coverage in a screw top foundation with a concealer within the cap so you can touch up anytime, anywhere, and comes in three shades only. Description's pretty candid but that's pretty much the packaging, but I'd like to add that it looks nice and nowhere near tacky.

More about this product after the cut.



Top: Concealer
Bottom: Foundation

The concealer has this whipped, silicone- like texture, but it feels oddly draggy. Coverage is medium. For this shade, the concealer's tone is light beige with neutral undertones. It is unscented.

The foundation has this watery-creamy, bouncy consistency and gives off this nice, cooling sensation to the skin. Coverage is sheer and pigmentation is so-so. For this shade, the foundation's tone is Ivory Beige with pink undertone and it does not match my skin tone. It is unscented too.

Bare under eye

One layer of the concealer

Concealing power is okay because my dark circles have become significantly light, thanks to my effective eye creams, but I could imagine that those with very grave dark circles and puffy eyes may not benefit so much from it. It's not very moisturizing too, and it gets patchy when I pile it on.

Skin with ArtDeco Camouflage Cream + Cover and Go Concealer

Two layers of Cover and Go Foundation

This foundation is very sheer-coverage is very much like tinted moisturizer and BB Cream: it just evens out the skin tone, but cannot conceal dark discolorations. For shadowy discolorations, it does an okay job. It's a lil' wet and moisturizing and takes a while to settle in.

The only thing I liked about the foundation is its dewy effect. When set with a good powder, it's actually nice. It looks okay here because for one, I don't have severe skin troubles to begin with and I have used a very good face concealer and finishing powder along with it. The foundation isn't that flattering on skin bumps too. When I see the word FOUNDATION on a product, I want to get foundation, not BB Cream, tinted moisturizer, or tinted primer. The foundation fades completely at the end of the day and has no sebum- controlling powers so I think it will suit those with normal and dry skin with minimal to no skin problems. I also think teenage gals will like this too because overall finish of both products is very, very light.

  1. Been waiting for your review ever since I saw your IG post about this a few weeks back. :D
    Yes, I noticed that it really doesn't last long but for me, what I like about this is that i did not have break outs when I used this for 3 days straight. Some foundations break me out so I try to steer clear of them, but this did not so i still give this a thumbs up despite its staying power. :D

  3. Haha. I think its more of a bb cream than a foundation. But i like that the color suits you. Or maybe it's just that you already set your face with a good powder. Hihi. Anyways, either way, you'll look beautiful :)

  5. Despite having dry skin and not a lot of imperfections, I was underwhelmed by this product :( I think it's the too sheer coverage...
