Cover and Go with Collection Cosmetics!
#productreviews
I don't really use concealer because I don't really need it. Well now, don't think for a second that I feel that I am perfect, my skin is anything but! But I really believe that one should only use products that one needs. Like for example, the concealer.
If you do not have dark circles or if your baggies aren't that deep, then skip the concealer. Your makeup look will still be complete even without the concealer. Sometimes, the foundation you are using is enough to cover the under eye area. Remember, if you put something to highlight something that you don't need some highlighting, then you could end up looking puffy than you actually are.

Thank you Collection Cosmetics for these fab duos!
When you buy this product, it has a safety plastic seal so you will have to test them at the Collection counter. When I received these foundation duos, I couldn't tell which one would best suit my skin color and tone so I had to review both of them at once so we can choose together (yay!)
I like the packaging because it looks pro. Sassy and at the same time chic. Anything that is sassy and chic, I like!
The instructions are printed inside the sticker. You will have to peel the corner of the sticker so you can read the ingredients list. Yes, their products are formulated and developed in UK, but is manufactured in China.
I love the compact design of this product. The concealer that complements the foundation is on the cap of the tube with a small mirror. Perfect for those days when you are running late and you have to do your makeup in the car -however, I don't recommend you doing makeup in the car, specially if you're driving!
Collection Cosmetics Cover and Go Foundation Duo in Fair 03 |
The FAIR 03 concealer is slightly on the yellow side. And the foundation has a slightly pinkish hue that is perfect for mestizas where their skin tone is on the pink side.
Collection Cosmetics Cover and Go Foundation Duo in Natural 04 |
This is how I apply concealer, I use a concealer brush and I lightly apply it only on the inner corners of my eyes. Hmm... I think I should start wearing concealers more. It lifts my eyes! You can see that Natural 04 suits my skin tone better.
The Natural 04 foundation suits my skin tone better too. I find the fair foundation to be a bit white on my skin and the yellow tone of the Natural 04 complemented my skin tone better.
This is the foundation when set with powder. Flawless, even looking skin.
