Camouflage with Cover FX

I recently came across Cover FX and am amazed with their products. Take notice because this doesn't happen often when it comes to makeup. As you know I don't like wearing a lot on my face and prefer to keep things looking light and natural, hence my love of Bare Minerals. Well, now onto my new lover Cover FX.

I've been using their Translucent Setting Powder and SkinTint Moisturizing Treatment & Tint SPF30. It really is about time a reputable company put some real SPF into our makeup routine. Previously, I have been using a separate SPF prior to any makeup application. This eliminates the extra step and makes my skin super soft and dewy, but not in that icky oily way. It is supposed to add a little sun kissed look as well. However, my skin is already Pretty tan. Also, the SkinTint adds a sexy sheen between cleavage to highlight your assets.

While using the Translucent Setting Powder, I've noticed that it helps keep my other makeup in place while significantly reduces shine. I don't reapply my makeup during the day either; whatever makes it on my face in the morning or before an evening out is what stays. The only thing I touch up are my lips.

Cover FX products are unique to the market. They were created in 1985, by Lee Graff, a corrective makeup specialist at the CosMedic Clinic at a leading Canadian hospital, who has worked with thousands of patients with various skin conditions. Together with Chemical Engineer Jenny Frankel, and leading Dermatologist Dr. Neil Shear, Lee began development of Cover FX. That's over two decades ago, so the current products are all top quality and reflect needs and wants of real women, not Hollywood sets.


Also, since Graff started her career as a camouflage specialist, she has learned how to cover skin imperfections without any irritation. This is ideal for someone with roseacea, acne scars, skin discoloration, and any other imperfection that one might have. The cosmetic line itself is made for all skin tones and therefore makeup routines can easily be tailored to skin tone and skin imperfection.
