    First Impressions: For the past couple of months I have been using this foundation in the shade 925 buff beige. This foundation claims to be super blendable and can multitask as a foundation, concealer and primer. From my experience with this foundation, I like how it has 20 SPF which is good for the days where I forget to wear sunscreen. This foundation is very runny but one of the pros about this foundation is that it has a pump. Whenever a foundation has a pump I feel a lot more clean than foundations without it. The product also contains 30mL (1 FL OZ), which I find a decent amount of foundation. One downside to the packaging is that I lose a lot of product onto the sides of my cap. The pump does leak a little for me and it goes all over the cap and runs down the blue pump.
    Application: This product does follow up to its claims. The foundation is very runny, but it applies very smoothly and is very blendable. One layer of the foundation gives an even light/medium coverage. I usually give myself one pump and buff thin layers of the foundation onto my face to build up to my desired coverage. I do realize that the foundation does cling to the sides of my nose which makes it look cakey. However, the application for the rest of my face does feel very light and looks natural.
    Staying Power: The foundation is not entirely matte but it isn't very dewy as well. The bottle claims to be oil free and it does keep my oil to a minimum for a few hours but later I can feel my oil seeping out. My skin type is oily, so I would recommend using a mattifying primer as well as setting the foundation with powder. When I use both a setting powder and mattifying primer the foundation can last me up to 10 hours.
    Pros/Cons: This foundation is long-lasting and gives a pretty natural look. However, I would not recommend this foundation if you have oily skin and live in humid climates. When I was on vacation this foundation did wear off with all the sweat. Since I've been using this foundation I did not find any new growing acne which is great because it didn't break me out.
    Overall Rating: 8/10
    This is a great everyday foundation that is affordable and long lasting. This foundation has been in my daily routine for the past couple of months.

    I have only used this foundation a few times but i would 10/10 recommend. Flawless finish, IT DOESN'T CREASE which is a major problem for me.
    I have extremely severe eczema on my face and so far, this is the most comfortable foundation for my worst flare ups. ave it a fair trial using a few times over the course of the week, and really liked the texture and coverage that it provided. When it was clear to me that the colour just did not suit me, I passed it along to a friend of mine. She usually wears tinted moisturizer, and really liked that Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation that provided more coverage without feeling too heavy.

    This medium-to-full coverage foundation says it has the “lasting power of a primer, coverage of a concealer, and blendability of a foundation” and it’s “Shine free.” Well, I’ve worn it now a few times and feel comfortable giving a review. My first impression of the bottle is great! I wish every foundation came in a bottle with a removable pump. The pump makes it less messy and more sanitary. being able to remove the pump head also means there is no waste..an extra bonus! The packaging is unremarkable but effective. Now on to actual product.. First the" lasting power of primer"..Well..it does act as a light primer but fine lines and pores are still noticeable. The dark circles under my eyes almost seemed to be extra noticeable the first time trying it. I added my usual under eye product as well on day 2 and everything was fine. Second the "coverage of a concealer". i found it did cover all my imperfections quite well. Thirdly "blendability of a foundation" Well here it falls a bit short. I found it didn't blend as well as my usual product. Using a sponge or makeup is by far the best way i found to blend. the color was a bit off as well and this is probably affecting the blendability. Last the "shine-free". Well it here it is fabulous! The coverage is quite matte-like almost powder finish, that does stay for the whole day. Usual areas where I find oils wear it off tend to stay put right through to evening. Overall i would recommend the product as it does the job well and is a very reasonable price.

    For a drugstore foundation, this isn't too bad. Few drugstore foundations are light enough for my pale skin but this one actually had a good color range. I would consider it a medium coverage foundation and it is buildable. It applies nicely and leaves your skin slightly dewy and natural looking. The only downfall to this foundation is its lasting power. After a day of work, I find that the coverage is fading!

    I have never used Covergirl Foundation before, as I haven't had a good experience in the past with their products. When this came out, I heard some good reviews on the product, so I thought I would give it a shot. Starting with the packaging itself, I like that you can twist the pump one way to open it up and then turn it the other way to close it so that none comes out, and then there is also a lid that goes on top which adds extra protection especially if you are putting it in a makeup bag or your purse. The product is feels light on my face and doesn't leave my face feeling cakey or heavy. It is easy to blend (I use a foundation brush as opposed to a sponge) and easy to use, and dries to a matte finish. As for how it lasts throughout the day, I don't have oily skin, so I can't say if it helps to control oil or not as I have dry skin, but with dry skin I find that this foundation holds up well throughout the day as long as you have moisturized your face before applying it. An added feature that I think is great which Covergirl has done is if you go to their website you can answer a few questions and get colour matched with a foundation. I think this is great for people who don't know how to pick out foundation for their skin type.

    good price point, very smooth texture, easy to apply. like the fact that it has SPF, no need to apply one more layer to the skin. a good variety of colors to choose from to match your skin tone

    Covergirl is doing amazing job with their foundation. This is another hit in the park. Packaging is on point with the glass bottle and PUMP (thank you)! It claims to have the lasting power of primer, coverage of a concealer, and blendability of a foundation in one and I do have to say that they're not lying. Again, my skin is very oily so the fact this foundation stays on my skin for a good 10+ hours in a day is a good foundation for me already. This foundation is easy to put on, easy to blend into my skin, and feels light-ish. Reason why I say light-ish is because the more you do build coverage it does get to feel a bit cake-y. Love the array of colours too. One bad thing about this foundation is it does oxides a bit so that's the tricky part of finding the right colour for this foundation. But I highly recommend giving it a try!

    I don't even know how many times I have repurchased this product, that's how much I love it! I would grab my cover girl 3 in 1 over a high end foundation any day. Great price, great coverage and a great colour match for pale girls!

    I like this foundation and that it has 3 products in one bottle, however I do find that it is not strong enough for my under eyes so I still use a concealer. It stays on all day, doesn't make my skin look all cakey and is full coverage and buildable.

    I truely liked how this foundation had the benefits of 3 products built-in to this 1 bottle.
    I had always suffered from the odd acne and skin imperfections and I also have a very busy lifestyle so taking the Primer step and concealer application step out of my daily routine, yet I can achieve the same results as if I had spent countless time applying each of those steps.
    This foundation also comes in an array of different shades and pigments to match every skin tone for a more even coverage and blends on nicely too.

    The only thing I don't like about it is how it can look and appear cake on dry skin. I do highly recommend this product and I will continue to use this product in the future!
