CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation

I received a coupon to redeem for a bottle of the New CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation in exchange for my honest feedback. 

After reviewing the different colors that were available I selected the Natural Tan 860 and felt this color would best match my face. When I returned home I immediately washed my face so that I could try my new foundation. After washing my face I applied L’Oreal’s BB Cream and then L’Oreal’s RevitaLift Miracle Blur. I opened the bottle of CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation because other foundation’s I have used in the past didn’t have the pump feature that this bottle has. I dabbed a little bit of foundation in several areas of my face and then blended it into my face first using my fingertips and then finishing with a sponge applicator paying close attention to under my eyes and around my jawbone making certain that it was blending well. I was impressed with how well it blended with my natural color and the matte finish it left my face with. 

The next day I was going on a 12 hour field trip with my son and his 2^nd grade class. This would be the real test if this foundation could last a full 12 hours in sunny Florida, with the humidity, at an amusement park. I went through the same steps I had taken the day prior when applying the CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation. I also applied my Mineral’s loose powder that I normally wear, as well as a little bronzer on my cheeks and eye area and finished with clear gloss.

Several hours into the field trip we all had stopped to take a bathroom break. I went to grab my powder out of my bag as a habit of needing to refresh my makeup during the day, but when I went to apply it I noticed I didn’t need to and put it away. A couple of hours later, after lunch, I went to the rest room again. When I looked in the mirror the only thing missing was my gloss! I was very impressed, but still had my doubts. As the day went on it became very hot, it was the middle of April and it happened to be a very hot day. Although I was sweating from the heat my makeup was still withstanding the day. At the end of the day when I returned home and went to go wash my face I took a few minutes to stare at my reflection in amazement with the reality of the situation; my makeup looked almost identical to what it did when I applied it that morning. Not only did the CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation prove to be all that is in its name by outlasting the day and staying fabulous but the bronzer I applied that morning was also nearly perfect. My bronzer has never made it a few hours into my day before which made it clear that the foundation was an excellent primer as well.  

I have now been using the CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous for over 2 weeks and I am still amazed at the end of each day. I’ve also noticed that more and more I am leaving the makeup bag at home, because I don’t need to refresh my face several times a day as I use to have to do. I can be confident that when I apply my makeup, it will outlast even me!
