I got hung up in school so writing about this has taken longer to post that I would have liked, but this blog is mostly for me to keep track of spending and to get my thoughts out there, so I don't feel too bad.
In any case, today I tried the CYO Lifeproof Long Lasting Foundation. I have two bottles of this because it was on sale and it came so highly recommended by Taylor Wynn. Unfortunately, this foundation has been discontinued so even if I end up loving it, I wouldn't be able to replace my current foundation with it. This is in the shade 103.
This is supposed to be a medium coverage foundation that is transfer proof and lightweight. I do find that the coverage is medium, but I don't feel like it looks very skin-like on me.
This is a photo right after application. I feel like it is more noticeable around my mouth and nose, but I don't feel like it offers very good coverage as I can still see some redness on my cheek that wasn't covered. I didn't want to add more because I already felt like the coverage was heavy looking.
The coverage looks even worse in natural light, but the photo doesn't do a good job of showing that. I also find that the color is the right tone, but it looks a little too pink. Meh.
The finish of the makeup is ok, maybe a little more matte than I would ideally like and I don't mind the coverage being a little lighter, but I can't get past the way it sits on my skin.
At the end of the night, the coverage was pretty much gone. The texture looked a little better, but this is nowhere near as good as how my normal foundation performs. This one is a pass for me.
