Covergirl Natureluxe Foundation in 335 Dune

Hi loves~ Sorry again for the long hiatus. But I am back today! Sorry ;-; I said I'd do a post about my birthday but there isn't much to post about that so I may or may not do a post on that later. So... Sorry for the URL change again, I promise I won't change it again for a while. I just wanted it to match my tumblr URL so... Sorry!!! I won't go and change the other pics though so I saved the previous URL okay. Now, onto the review!
 So, this is the Covergirl Natureluxe Foundation and I'm sure there are millions of reviews of this but oh well. I really don't buy much anymore so yea... I bought this in the color Dune and it only came out to about $4 since it was on clearance at Target. I have been using it quite often, but not daily. It is a light foundation that has a mild, clean kind of smell to it. However, it can be too perfumey to people who are sensitive to scented products.

I got this in 335 Dune, which is the second to last color. It is not really all that dark. I don't think that the color range for this foundation is too bad, but it is not as diverse as other foundations are.

 Here is what it  looks like when you open it. It's not the nicest packaging since you do have to squeeze it and it sucks because it explodes when you open it sometimes due to the pressure. Like it did when I did this review.

So here is a gigantic swatch...

 What it looks like when smudged out. As you can see, it is pretty sheer and also, a little goes quite a long way. It looks like it leaves a white cast but its ok really. I just didn't blend it all the way. And it'll oxidize after applying, so don't worry.

So, here we have the sharpie dot test. And, as a result, it really doesn't cover the sharpie dot. So, we can conclude that this is a very sheer foundation and it is meant for people who don't have much to hide. I use this on days where my face is reddish, but I still have to use concealer to cover blemishes. It's not a bad foundation, but I don't think I have a use for it really.
Throughout the day, it doesn't really do much, I mean, it is still there when I take it off at night, but the coverage is hard to monitor since it doesn't offer much coverage in the first place.
Good thing I only paid $4 for it because I don't think I would have paid full price for it, since it is so sheer.

Makeup War!: Mascara: Stila v.s. CoverGirl

New thing here... Im going to be comparing two products based on Quality, Price, Effectiveness, and more.:) Hope you like it :DD
(Got this idea in the shower o_o)

CoverGirl Lashblast Volume
Price: around $8
My rating: 8 out of 10




Stila Major MAJOR Lash Mascara
Price:$22
My Rating: 8 ot of 10

They both have the same rating... but lets see who wins!


Pictures of the brushes will be in previous posts.... (I dont wanna put too many pics.)
 Well:
CoverGirl:
 Stila:

Now, The stila one looks more bold(in the color) and makes them appear thicker. Covergirl makes it appear as if you have more lashes. stila also does not hold your lashes upwards... So it adds more length? than volume.  theyre pretty much the same!

COVERGIRL wins!
why its better: The price is more than 1/2 less and in my opinon looks better (more natural) :)

CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara

I actually got this awhile ago in a three pack for around $15 at Costco... Split it with my mom & sister. Pretty worth it.
Havent gotten around to reviewing this. Its one of my favorite mascaras. I wish they didnt package it like that... That way I wouldnt have to watch the brush turn all ugly. This mascara will sometimes clump if theres too much on the brush. the brush is all like... hmm.... Spongy?

This mascara has a smell to it. Its not bad.. But I didnt know that mascaras had smells... >_< It doesnt stay on all day. It smduges if you rub your eye(DUH) but its very quick in drying and separates lashes pretty well. It doesnt give you length, But it does hold your lashes well for volume.
