If you know me well enough, this should be no surprise to you that I am using a new foundation. I've always loved trying out new ones to see what I like and don't like. High-end and drugstore, I try them all.
If you remember from a past blog post, I mentioned I was using the Covergirl 3 in 1 foundation, which was amazing!
Now I've switched to a brand that I have tried everything else but their foundation, which is MAC. Lipsticks, blush's, and powders I am pretty familiar with when it comes to them, but foundation? Nope.
So I figured why not try out the MatchMaster foundation. I heard it was perfect for oily skin (which I have) and they had a wide range of colors to choose from.
Going on almost a month of using it I can tell you that without a primer, the foundation will still make you a little oily BUT this foundation lasts all freaking day.
I only have to pull out my blotting papers once a day which is a lot less than I'm used to.
One of my favorite things about this foundation is that the bottle is in pump form so its less messy and you don't have to worry about wasting product.
Basically, I like this foundation but am I in love with it? Not really. The coverage is really good but for the price I feel that it should be able to keep me oil free all day.
So if you are looking for a foundation with medium and build-able coverage I recommend it, and if you have oily skin, don't forget that primer!
Would I purchase it again? Yeah probably, but I have other foundations that I want to try first.

As much as we always want to buy that $40 foundation we see at Sephora we cant always bring ourselves to spend that much when we know there is a foundation at Target that will work just as good (maybe even better) Especially for us college students, beauty on a budget can be a struggle sometimes, but glorious when we find a product that can match that expensive one we have been eye balling forever.
So here are my favorite affordable drugstore products that I just cant get enough of!
When I did my everyday makeup blog I was using the Sephora brand foundation but since I finished that I switched to the CoverGirl Outlast Stay Fabulous foundation. Its super lightweight but build-able. However, it might say shine free, but I still find myself being oily after a while of wearing it. But then again, that's with any foundation that I wear. I got mine from Target but CoverGirl products can be found anywhere.
My next product is also by CoverGirl. Its their Clean concealer and this is probably the best concealer that I have ever had, including high end ones. I like that it comes in a tube and has an applicator like a lip gloss which makes everything a lot easier for me. Totally recommend this one!
So enough with CoverGirl, and on with Revlon. Right now I am using the Lash Potion mascara and the formula is great and makes my eyelashes look better than any other drugstore mascara I have used. Im pretty sure I only paid $5 for it, so you cant go wrong with that!
Last, to clean all of that off my face at the end of the day, I use the Ponds makeup remover wipes and these not only smell good but they seriously get ALL of my makeup off. Eyeliner, mascara, EVERYTHING. I cannot live without these bad boys. Go get you some!
Let me know what drugstore products you all are loving at the moment!
Stay Fab,
