It is incredibly handy to have a tube of foundation with a concealer hidden in the cap along with a small mirror. The advantage is the 2 products tone well together and means I only have one product to carry rather than several in my bag!
Collection Cosmetics is a well established UK brand which is relatively new to the NZ market. However it is quickly gaining quite a following of loyal customers here because of their high quality products at inexpensive prices.
I found the texture of this foundation to be quite thick when I squeezed it out of the tube. However when I applied it to my skin it felt surprisingly lightweight and blended really well. It gives a light to medium coverage and I felt it gave my skin a beautifully natural finish. Probably best described as it made like my skin look like it was naturally flawless!
The concealer hidden in the lid matches the foundation shade and I found the concealer like the foundation gives lightish coverage. As generally my skin is blemish free I don't need to worry about needing heavy concealer coverage so it worked well to minimise some skin redness I was experiencing.
I know some of the more expensive brands on the market also do a foundation & concealer duo but for me it's great to have a foundation & concealer duo at a realistic price point and I am very satisfied with my purchase!
