Mini Reviews!! :) Covergirl, Almay, Luxie
Hey Guys!
Today I'm going to be sharing some mini reviews of some products. The Covergirl Vitalist Healthy Elixer Foundation, Almay One Coat Multi-Benefit Mascara, and Luxie 640 Tapered Brush.
I've been using the Covergirl Foundation in the shade 710 Classic Ivory for the past few weeks. It seems to last okay throughout the day. It claims to be a lightweight, oil free, full coverage foundation with SPF 20 in it.
First off, the packaging is gorgeous. It's very clean and sturdy and comes with a pump which is always a plus. In response to the claims, the foundation is indeed lightweight however, it is not full coverage. It can be considered good solid medium coverage. I enjoy using it and it looks gorgeous in photos. It is oil free and hasn't caused me to break out. I would give this foundation an 8/10 only because it isn't full coverage as it claims to be.
Next to the Almay Mascara in Black Brown. It does make my lashes look fuller and longer however, throughout the day I have noticed some flaking and black fall out onto my face which is not the best. For that fact alone, this seems to be a dud in my opinion. Right now I have been enjoying the L'Oreal Voluminous Lash Paradise Mascara and this just does not compare. I would give this product a 4/10 for the fact that it does initially make my lashes look fuller and longer, however for the fall out it doesn't meet my expectations.
Lastly, the Luxie 640 Tapered Brush. I've been using this brush to apply my highlight and at first it seemed to apply a very subtle highlight no matter what I used, however as I lowered my hand on the handle of the brush it intensified my highlight and did exactly what I wanted it to. That being said, I definitely don't think this brush is for beginners. It leaves you feeling like you don't have 100% control and that can be difficult when applying an in your face highlight. That being said I do enjoy the brush and I'd give it a 7/10.
