Finding a good foundation and
concealer for my skin tone has always been a struggle. Even the lightest
drugstore foundations make me look like an oompa loompa and then I'm not
even talking about the concealers. When I spotted these two products in the
Catrice make-up aisle I was immediately intrigued. High coverage, a good price
and what seems the right colour? I'm in!
Let's start with
the concealer. The Catrice Liquid Camouflage High Coverage Concealer in 010 Porcelain
is meant to give a flawless, long lasting finish that even claims to be
waterproof. Not that I go swimming with my make-up, but oh well.
It has a very
creamy consistency and blends in very nicely. The colour is a complete match to
my skin, which is new for a change. It doesn't highlight my skin, since I'm too
pale for that, but I love that it covers my dark circles, hyper pigmentation
and spots. It's a great all-round concealer that works for everything and for
€3,59 you can't really go wrong.
The Catrice Even Skin Tone Beautifying Foundation in 005 Even Ivory is meant to have a medium to
high coverage and will make your hyper pigmentation less visible, even without foundation. It also has SPF25 which is
a nice addition.
I think it's a
good foundation, but nothing can top my love for the Revlon Colorstay
Foundation. I find that this Catrice foundation gives me a very shiny face at the end of the
day. However, it does blend in nicely and the colour match is spot on.
For a drugstore
foundation I think it's very good. Especially for people with fair, acne-prone
skin. It covers my spots and acne scars really well and the price (€7,59) is
amazing. I don't know about the claims of making my skin more even, but for me
it's all about the coverage and colour anyway.
I think they are
very good drugstore products. I will definitely repurchase the concealer over
and over again, the foundation is good, but I think I will stick to my Revlon
foundation for now. If you have fair skin definitely have a look at the Catrice
make-up aisle!
Have you tried any
of these Catrice products?
Great post! I'll have to try out the concealer. Thanks for sharing :)

Thank you Raquel! :) x
DeleteI am on the look out for a new foundation, my BareMinerals one is running low and I want to move to something with better coverage of acne. This Catrice one could be an option - especially because I too have very fair skin!

So, hi.
Thank you Rach! It means a lot! Of course, I will have a look right now! :) x
DeleteIt's great to hear it covers acne-prone skin well, I occasionally get a few on my chin and never like to settle for any makeup that doesn't entirely conceal them! It's great to read a review on Catrice products too as I've never used any before.

I have the same problem! I need a foundation that covers up my spots and scars, but it's so hard to find. Especially one that looks natural too! x
DeleteThank you Tanya! :) x
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried much from Catrice before but I always read great things about their products. The concealer sounds amazing & what an affordable price too x

I LOVE Catrice! It's basically my favourite drugstore brand! x
DeleteI haven't tried these Catrice products, but they look really good! I'm sure they don't carry them in the USA.

Aah nooo! I did see an American YouTuber use them in a video and she bought them from an American store. Have you checked Target and Ulta? :) x
