Hey YouTube fam! It's ya girl Lia back again with another video and as you can
see from the title it is another foundation review Friday and I'm smiling
from ear-to-ear just because I have not filmed outside of my fenty foundation
review a foundation review Friday for you guys since the end of June. And you
guys might be like I just saw your L'Oreal Infalliable what are you talking
about. That was filmed about you know several months ago before my accident.
Even if you pay attention my hair is the model model Dominican braid which is an
old hair. I don't have the scar on my arm from me accident so that was a long time
ago. Today's foundation is the foundation I actually bought back in July I was so
gung-ho about my foundation reviews that I'll pre bought so many foundations. So
this was new at the time and as you can see from the sticker it says new on here.
Don't mind my nails it's a nail day I need to go out and get my nails done at
some point today hopefully. Um and I have the Covergirl Vitalist Healthy Elixir
foundation. Now in Canada I realized recently they call this foundation
Vitalist Elixir. They take out healthy so the bottle looks a lot different and I
don't know if it's different throughout the entire you know international land
but that's something I thought was weird is it not that healthy. So like I said my
foundation reviews aren't first impressions I wear the foundation out
Monday through Friday. I type my notes out and print them out for you guys at
the end of the week and tell you guys what worked with me. Like my hair reviews
I like to give you guys the nitty gritty and things I noticed. If you're not
familiar with my skin I have dry skin very dry skin. And if for you guys who
are also are new I list every single foundation that I've tried throughout my
foundation review series down below. So if you have any questions about what am
I in this foundation don't worry I got you all down below. So the covergirl
vitalist healthy elixir I'm looking down at my notes if I look down at any point.
It's between nine ninety nine and eleven ninety nine and the places that I saw it.
Now 1199 it was at Ulta and Ulta already tries it 999 I saw it at Target and I
actually bought mine at Target for 9.99 so it's a high
in kind of depending on where you get it from foundation from the drugstore they
have 14 foundations shade my shade is 757 and that is golden tan on the back
it also gives you a little expiration date so it lets me know that it will
expire in March 2019 that's a long time that's quite some time you get one
flowing ounce which is typical for most foundations in the bottle is very acute
I have to say for drugstore this is a very cute glass kind of bottle that is I
really like it now in terms of applicators and what I used this week in
terms of applying the foundation I chose to apply it both a few days with the
brush about two days with the brush and two days with the beauty blender and
one day with the real techniques sponge with the brush you do get a more fuller
coverage in terms of you don't get a full full coverage with anyway you apply
this foundation but the brush you do get a fuller coverage than you do with a
Beauty Blender sponge and that just depends on what kind of coverage you
like. If you follow my channel you guys know I outside of filming on camera with
you guys Monday through Friday I tend to like a sheer to medium coverage I'm not
trying to walk in the face I'm not a model my career isn't modeling so I
don't really love a full coverage so everything about this scream applied
with a Beauty Blender for me now in terms of primers I have been loving this
combination without question for all the foundations that I've been applying
gracefully and it's the primer water by Smashbox and the Smashbox photo finish
foundation primer I'm so the water and the primer itself have worked
wonderfully for me so what I do and what somebody suggested I do this is why I do
this I use the primer water of course and spray but for my areas that I get
fine lines in and I get a lot of fine lines with my smile lines because I'm
not Julie or happy person most of the time and so I get smile lines right here
I put the actual primer the Smashbox primer on these area so places where I'm
tend to get wrinkles I tend to put this here and it's been kind of working for
me recently I get wrinkles right here too because I'm very expressive
somewhere huh I do a lot of eyebrow movements like so I think it wrinkles
here a lot so applying this real has helped so how the shade looks on me
it's the back of the hand like I said I have gold and tan that's what one pump
looks like and that's what it looks like on me and my skin you guys can see now
I'm gonna do a second pump we're gonna see how far two pumps can take me
so I know I originally applied two pumps on the back of my hand I actually have
gone back in with two additional pumps to make it build up a little bit more on
camera for you guys but if I was doing this day-to-day I could get away with
two to three pumps four pumps if I wanted to build it up a
lot more of course you could use a lot less the reason why I say this isn't
full coverage for me and that's one thing I'll say right off the bat the
pump says it is a lightweight full coverage makeup I have to stop you right
there the way I can tell if a foundation is
full coverage because I don't have a lot of blemishes or like dark spots on my
face I have freckles on my nose though and if my freckles kind of peak through
which I don't know if it's gonna show on camera because I applied a little bit
more than normal but we day to day throughout this week I've noticed that
applying one kind of layer to kind of layers I still see my freckles coming
through so I'm like yeah pull cover eye foundations that are full coverage that
new cover that area so I'm like let's stop you right there covergirl you tried
it now in terms of the states I normally gripe about shades early on when I see
something that says 14 shades I'm like uh because I think there's only about
three shades darker than my shade it might be three or four shades darker
than my shade the reason I don't give covergirl too much heat for not having
those shades a lot darker is because they have the Queen collection that's
the only reason I don't read covergirl for filth a lot it's because of that
Queen collection it saves them a little bit because they have I used to love
covergirl Queen growing up and I definitely need to try some of their
foundations a part of this foundation review series because when they first
launched that that was something new and nobody had ever really had a darker line
back what was that like eight years ago nine years ago when Queen first came out
so in terms of the finish that you're seeing right now it is a very kind of I
hope it's showing up on camera how luminous it is it's very luminous right
now now I'll show you a little bit later when I come back and apply this in my
face but I think it settles down to but initially very luminous if you're seeing
right now it looks look like a mazing shade match I'll show you guys a little
bit later I think it oxidizes a tad bit you'll see that when it interacts with
my skin but I think off bat when you're first applying it I think yay look at
I look luminous the shade is matching me just from this one bottle didn't have to
mix or anything J it looks amazing but of course as per usual I'll play the
rest of my face and come back with my you know how it interacts with my
product stop so stay tuned now I am back and of course applied the rest of my
face so this is the finished look and I'd have to say I hope it's showing up
outside of the areas that our bronze I bronze up a little bit around here
however oxidizes a wee bit now not an annoyingly amount for me now like I said
I want to pick this product up it was in a June I didn't crack it open until
October so I think it would have been probably amazing if during those summer
months like those summer months like while I was at the peak of the the kind
of shade that I am right now but as I'm weaning down like we're in still October
right now but I know as you know December hits I'll get a little bit
lighter and this may not be the perfect look but for me right now
I'm not mad at the level of oxidizing it does now will my winter shade be I think
755 it's all honey I couldn't be mistaken I know honey is in the title
what is one shade lighter than 757 so I don't know if that's something that I
would need to pick up for my winter shade or not but I have to say for right
now if you guys can see it's a little bit darker on me but I am a little bit
as you can see I'm not you know this stain I'm more so this shade now so it's
blending with my body and and flowing well with my skin tone which I really
like I need my foundations to look like me
I'm so good job 757 in terms of playing well with products I'd have to say I
have to give this foundation a little bit of a thumbs down what I mean when I
say playing well with products is how does the product interact with my other
products that I layer on top of it meaning my blushes and my highlights and
my contours it's in that realm now what throughout the week I thought
it was kind of a fluke in terms of applying but then as I applied more and
more each day I kind of realized it doesn't really like other products being
on top of it that much it's not the biggest fan of other products and that's
really weird but I am not outside of you know filming for you guys and being on
camera throughout the week I don't apply a lot a lot of product but if you're
somebody who does like likes a lot of blush a lot of highlight I've realized I
had to apply a little bit more of my blush than I normally do when I put
powder on top of this it's like we're not liking it
that's like I'll do I just wore my brush in my blush to kind of pick it up and
put it on and turn into a highlight I normally pack it on like this is a lot
of highlight that I put on for me today like in a normal life I kind of wiggled
my brush in there and apply highlight but for this it's just subtle it's just
very you know right here right here it's very much so subtle and so it's like
when you put the product on top of this foundation this appears a little bit you
have to apply a little bit more in terms of creams it worked really well with my
cream eye cream contour a lot i cream bronze a lot I'm gonna work well with
other cream so these are things I just wanted to highlight straight off of
applying the oxidized is a little bit may not be the best friend with some of
your products and I would have to say it does settle down to a natural finish if
you are a dry girl as you're a dry girl you're not gonna have a very do me but
you're gonna have a natural natural finish and I love a natural finish if I
can't have dewy I'll settle for a natural finish now it says it has
vitamin E in there and if you guys know since my accident
vitamin E has been my best friend I bought this from Target and untying it
on my scars it has really kind of helped a lot in terms of scarring I applied
cocoa butter and I applied my vitamin E so a vitamin E is a vitamin that I have
really been enjoying on its own recently so the fact that it's been a foundation
I like that um but yo let me not ramble on let me go ahead about the rest of my
day and come in and check with you guys later and let you guys know how this
product holds up throughout the day and my end of the thoughts and what I
repurchase it so see you guys soon so now I am back it has been about 5 hours
with this foundation now this isn't how long I would typically wear my
foundations I would of course wear them a lot longer on a typical day but I am
about to lose natural some latter's getting dark and like six seven
something so I am trying to utilize all the natural daylight I have
near my steps you guys say you love taking me film here so I love coming
here so this is five hours of where but you guys know me being a dry skin person
my foundations and a lot of foundations I try on their theories tend to last
longer on me than an average oily a person or oily a person usually has to
blot a lot they have to pee powders throughout and a lot of the time and for
me luckily I hate being dry skin but I love the fact that foundation stay and
look good on me for an extended period of time so that
is a plus being a dry skinned person but what have I noticed in wearing this
revitalization throughout the entire week now first oxidation you guys know
it did get a little bit darker for me it wasn't something that I couldn't handle
but it would cause me to have to maybe use a lighter shade in the winter time
now I'm gonna see how long I stay with this kind of tan but on me right now
perfect shade and now this oxidizes a little bit this shape particularly but I
I don't know how other shades I always wonder I'm only one shade do lighter
shades oxidize do darker shades oxidize the same way that these were oxidize I
don't know but for me 757 might be a little tinge darker and you just
attention othing unbearable I would say in terms of a longevity longevity of
wear with this foundation throughout the wear of it the longest I wore it was on
Tuesday of my work week and I put I always get up in the morning put my
foundation and makeup on from 8:00 to 8:30 and that particular day I took my
foundation off at 11:00 p.m. now how did it look what you would expect a nap
foundation that you wore for upwards of 14 hours to look it didn't look the
absolute best and for me this foundation does start looking a little different
during my work day around 5:30 I leave the office at 5:30 Easter day and I
don't look at all the way I look at eight o'clock in the morning so the way
I built my face up today to come on camera I could say I could probably wear
the look that I'm looking right now mmm I'd say a weird four five more hours
maybe still look exactly the same on a day-to-day basis a normal person
applying foundation who doesn't have to film on front of a camera you might see
you know six seven hours of wear oily skin person
I know you would probably have to block this foundation there's no way around it
so that's why I want to say it may not be the most oily skin friendly
foundation I'm just putting it out there I don't know maybe your oily skin person
to adore this super oily and you adore this foundation I think this is more
geared and nowhere on the site does it say geared towards dry skin types oily
skin type normal skin types it doesn't say anything about it but I'm saying for
me I could see a normal to dry skin person loving this maybe even
combination super oily I think you're gonna look like a free spot by the end
of the day and I think you're gonna have to blot uncontrollably but would I
repurchase it that's the question of the hour how did I feel and what I
repurchase this foundation and I would have to say hands down I think I would
repurchase it I i surprisingly I don't know I've seen a couple of reviews out
there for this foundation but I haven't seen that many about it might still be
like I don't know what about that but for me I kind of would repurchase it
only because I'm more soul of a share to medium coverage that's just me I'm also
somebody who's not concerned about how other it works well with other products
because Monday through Friday when I'm at work throughout the week I don't care
about my contour being on fleek I don't care about my blush being on point I can
apply a little bit lighter hand or some contour with some blush with some
highlight and be okay with it I'm more so love a sheer coverage day
today and I love that too I love a natural to luminous - do we finish I
think this gives a very natural finish I think that's one of the reasons I love
Mac face and body and that's one of my highest ones and for some people they're
like no no no no this is in that category I think for shade match I found
a foundation that I can buy one of and it was probably my shade from about mate
even now who knows it's North Carolina it can be hot forever I hear who know
the Sun be building down I'm sure I can get a tan in the middle of November out
here so I think shade rice I found this foundation and I don't want the mix with
anything I don't need to do one part of something to get a perfect match I think
this pad matches me pretty perfectly I think it's lightweight just like the
back says I don't feel like I have foundation on I don't feel cakey I don't
feel like that so yes I hope you guys enjoy my foundation review of the cover
