Dermacol Extreme Coverage Foundation Review

Hey guys, I hope you're all well. I will be reviewing the Dermacol full coverage foundation, I am sure you will have seen it all over Youtube. I ordered mine from Ebay and it arrived within a week and cost me £2.89.

Above is a link to the Dermacol cosmetics website. If you want to read the full description and claims of this foundation then go a head and click the link. If like me you are too lazy to do that then I will give a brief summary of what they say. 

 The claims for this foundation are as follows:

-waterproof

-hypoallergenic

-SPF 30

-Suitable for all skin types

-50% pigment

-Extreme full coverage (enough to cover tattoos)

Lets get into it. 

I did my skin care as normal, if you want to know what I used then check out my skin care blog, http://bit.ly/2tZJVOt . I then applied the foundation with a real techniques miracle complexion sponge. The foundation is very thick which is to be expected from a high coverage foundation. I found that it took me a little longer than normal to blend out the foundation, in future when using it I will either add a drop or two of oil or mix it with my normal foundation. The coverage is very good but not as full coverage as I expected, you can still see some of my freckles and redness through the foundation. However I did not apply any concealer as I wanted to see how it would work on its own and it covered my dark circles very well. I found that the foundation does set but it stays quite dewy looking. I used a small amount of translucent powder to set my under eyes and any where I thought it was too shiny. I then applied a jelly blush, liquid bronzer, powder blush and powder highlight over the the foundation and they all applied normally without any issue.

You will see the application and how I applied the rest of my makeup in the video. I will apologise in advance for the water mark on the video, I am trying out a video software and I am yet to purchase it. I have also taken pictures of the make up throughout the day.

After 3 1/2 hours the foundation had started to wear off across my jawline/cheeks. I have fairly dry skin so getting oily or shiny is very rarely an issue for me, it wasn't a problem I had with this foundation, the finish didn't change. My under eyes were looking pretty dry, other than that it was doing well up to this point. I can't complain too much about the foundation wearing off as I am someone who touches my face more than I should, I lean my face on my hands and my 2 year old often grabs my face for kisses (so cute btw).

After 12 hours the foundation had mostly worn off, but there was still coverage on the skin. Again I didn't get shiny and the foundation didn't break down. The rest of my makeup didn't last. The last check in I did for the foundation was at 1:30 am so needless to say I am rather tired looking.

Told you!!

To summarise this review, I do like the foundation and I will be using it again but in the ways I described earlier, with oil or mixed with my other foundation.

Pros:

Good coverage

Nice finish

Didn't need much powder

Good colour match

Make up went over it well

Sat well on the skin

Cons:

Under eyes looked dry

Didn't last as long as I hoped

Didn't blend well

Formula was slightly dry (for my skin type)

I would definitely recommend this foundation. If you have normal to dry skin then I would suggest moisturising well and using with a drop or 2 of oil or using as a coverage boost to another foundation. If you have oily combination skin then I think this foundation will last well on you, just powder lightly where you need to and use a good mattifying primer.

I really hope you have enjoyed this post, I really enjoyed making it. Let me know what you thought in the comments below.

Have you tried this foundation? If yes then what did you think? If no are you going to? Love you millions.

LETS BE BEAUTIFUL TOGETHER!!!!

My everyday summer makeup

Hey guys I hope you're all well. This post will be about my every day makeup routine, what I use and how I use it. My plan is to lay this post out like a recipe... A face recipe. I can't tell you why but this thought amused me greatly. I hope you enjoy this. If you have any make up looks in particular you would like me write a post about please let me know I would love to create the content you guys want.

Ingredients (aka products):
Primer- NYX Angel veil
Foundation- L'Oréal true match 1.N
Setting powder- baby powder (seriously)
Concealer- collection lasting perfection fair
Blush, bronze, highlight- collection #blushandglow pallette
Brow gel- MUA brow define dark brown
Mascara- Too faced better than sex
Lipgloss- collection lock and hold
Lipstick- collection velvet kiss

Method:

1. To begin with I apply the primer with my fingers to the T zone. I smooth this over the skin then pat it in to maximise the pore filling effect.

2. I then apply a light layer of powder. This method I first heard about by Wayne Goss on his YouTube channel. I will have a link at the end to his video talking about this.

3. Next up is foundation, I apply a light layer all over, blending it using the real techniques miracle completion sponge.

4. Then I apply concealer under my eyes, around my nose and on my chin. I will also Spot conceal any blemishes I may have. I will then lightly set where I have applied concealer with powder using the real techniques setting brush.

5. Next up is my blusher and bronzer. I will lightly bronze around my forehead, temples, back of the cheekbones and the bridge of my nose. I then apply blush to the apples of my cheeks and blend it into my bronzer. To do all of this I use the real techniques multi task brush.

6. Then I light brush through my brows with a spooly and then light brush through with the brow gel.

7. Then taking a fluffy blending brush I will dip into the lighter blush, shade and blend that through the crease and outer portion of the lid. I will also blend some of the bronzer though the crease and lower lash line to add some depth to my eyes.

8. Now it's time for highlight, everyone's favourite part of the day. I apply the highlight using the real techniques setting brush. I apply it to the tops of the cheek bones, brow bone, bridge of the nose, inner corners of the eyes (sweeping it lightly across the lid aswell) and my cupids bow. Then whatever is left I will light sweep over the center of my for head and my chin.

9. I then curl my lashes using a pound land eyelash curler and apply 2-3 layers of mascara to my top lashes and 1 layer on the bottom lashes.

10. Last but not least I apply a light layer of the liquid lipstick, wait for it to dry down, then go over top with the lip gloss.

I will sometimes use a setting spray or a mist to finish with, but I don't have any that I am using currently so I don't have any products to mention.

And that is my everyday summer look. I hope you have enjoyed this. Any questions on the products or my application please feel free to ask them in the comments. Let me know if you have any suggestions for future content. Thank you so much.
