This is the Covergirl Ready, Set Gorgeous Fresh Complexion oil free foundation. I got the shade 105 Classic Ivory and it seems to be the perfect match for me. This is 1 fl oz and retails for $8.99 and it's only been spotted at Walgreen so far, but I'm sure it will make its way to other drugstores soon! It comes in 12 shades total. Now, onto the actual product! Here is the packaging:
"One simple step for a flawless, natural look that lasts all day. The formula blends easily to even skin tone and reduces shine all day.
*Oil free *Won't clog pores *Suitable for sensitive skin *Lasts all day"
Now, for MY thoughts! I love this foundation. It is very lightweight. It is light to medium coverage, and isn't matte or dewy. It evens out my skin tone, does a good job at covering imperfections without looking like I'm wearing make up, and lasts all day. I usually apply it at around 8-9am, and it lasts until 5pm before I start it wearing off around my acne spots. I'm definitely really enjoying this foundation, and recommend to check it out if you see it! Here are some pictures to show you what I'm talking about, since a picture is worth a thousand words!

Now, for the concealer.
I have the shade 105-110 Fair, but these seem to run VERY light. This is .37 fl oz and retail for about $5.49. The concealer comes in 6 different shade ranges and they run on the light side.
*Oil free *Won't clog pores *Dermatologically tested"
MY thoughts? This concealer is very thin. It's not the best concealer but it will do in a pinch. It's not great for a dry patch or really red or dark areas. If you have just a very minor imperfections to cover, this would work for you, but anything more, it's not worth it. Definitely a pass in this collection in general.
And now onto the powder in this collection.
I have the shade 105-110. This is .37 oz and retails for $8.99. This is a powder foundation, not a setting powder. This also comes in 6 other shade ranges, but the shades seem to look darker in the container, but seem to be pretty blendable to match your skin tone.
"Powder foundation covers like a liquid to help even skin tone for a natural look. Extra fine oil absorbing powder control shine.
*Oil free *Won't clog pores"
I'm not incredibly impressed with this powder, but nothing is bad about it either. It is very smooth and blends into your skin very easily, but it doesn't give much coverage like it implies it does. I'll keep you updated on Instagram on how I like it in the upcoming weeks, so keep checking there to keep updated.
Conclusion: The products are hit or miss. The foundation is awesome and I highly recommend it. The concealer would be a pass for me. The powder I would pick up if you like wearing a powder, but if you don't wear a powder normally, then I would take it or leave it. Be sure you're following me on Instagram (emsbeautydiaryx) for any updates on if anything changes or if any of these products go on sale and when they start becomes available elsewhere.
Thanks for the reviews, I was excited about this foundation, especially since I love covergirls 3 in 1 so much. I'm going to try it out.
