This has a very creamy yet lightweight texture that isn’t dry and feels quite hydrating on skin. I’ve tried many concealers like this from the drugstore and most are terribly dry. ![]() The formula itself is actually really good. This comes in a plastic tube with an attached sponge applicator for dabbing on. Marketing on the Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Concealer as well as other products in this collection seem to be targeting a younger demographic than myself and after trying the concealer I’d say this is more for a teenager perhaps or an early twenty consumer.Ĭovergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Concealer is an oil free concealer which is formulated to conceal dark circles and other imperfections according to the brand. But, I only have the one foundation and, at this time, I don’t know if I would repurchase it because I am really happy with my CoverGirl Clean foundation, and it’s not like I’m cheating on the brand.Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Concealer is one of several new products that launched for Summer 2014 featuring Katy Perry as the model for the collection entitled Covergirl #InstaGlam. I use the concealer semi-regularly, so I have one or two unopened ones stashed in my drawer so I don’t have to worry about running out. This foundation retails at $7.90, and the concealer retails at $6.65, so these are lovely value products, and since they are available in drug stores, they often go on sale so you can scoop them up at a good price. However, this foundation has a much wider range of shades that other CoverGirl foundations, which is really nice because it is so annoying when you want to try a product and it doesn’t come in a shade that matches your skin tone. But apparently this foundation actually wicks oil and sweat away from your skin to avoid shine instead of letting all of these little nasties stay trapped under the foundation, so that is nice. So the real question for me was how does this foundation differ from CoverGirl’s other ones? I personally like the CoverGirl Clean foundation better than this one because, though it is wetter and therefore a bit messier to apply, it feels much lighter on my skin than the Ready Set Gorgeous one. So just as a little warning, remember that these packages are plastic and therefore can break. ![]() ![]() I couldn’t get it open one day so I harnessed my inner Hulk strength and I ended up breaking it. I did have an unfortunate incident with my concealer though where I cracked the lid. The concealer comes with a sponge-tipped wand, making it really easy to apply on imperfections or on dark circles. What I love about this foundation-concealer pairing is that the shades are numerically matched for you so you don’t have to test out concealers on the back of your hand in the store to find one that most closely matches your favourite foundation. The foundation shades range from Classic Ivory 105 to Soft Sable 320, covering a wide variety of skin tones, while the concealer shades range from Fair 105/110 Deep 315/220. ![]() Plus, it does an excellent job of battling shine. This foundation offers good medium coverage and conceals a multitude of imperfections without looking heavy on the face. Shade-matched concealer with sponge-tipped wand.Foundation available in 12 shades concealer available in 6 shades.I thought about reviewing these products separately, but since they are both from CoverGirl’s instaGLAM collection, I wanted to review them together. I sometimes use the concealer underneath my CoverGirl Clean foundation if I have particularly dark circles under my eyes, or if there is a pesky little blemish on my face. Why hello there □ □ I stumbled upon this product while rummaging through my makeup stores looking for another trial size of Clinique’s High Impact Extreme Volume Mascara, and I realized I had never tried the foundation before.
