e.l.f.Camo CC Cream, SPF 30 Color-Correcting Medium-To-Full Coverage Face Foundation, Delivers An Airbrushed Finish, Vegan & Cruelty-Free, Rich 650 C

I’m seriously impressed with the e.l.f. Camo Foundation! It delivers full coverage without feeling heavy or cakey, and it blends beautifully into the skin. It covers redness, blemishes, and uneven tone like a dream — my complexion looks smooth and airbrushed every time I use it.It also wears really well throughout the day without breaking down or getting oily. For the price, the quality is unbeatable. If you’re looking for a high-performance foundation that won’t break the bank, this is it. Highly recommend!

✔ What I liked most: • Medium to full coverage that covers imperfections without looking heavy. • Lightweight, easy-to-blend texture. • Adapts well to skin tone and lasts for several hours. • Doesn't clog pores or leave a greasy feeling.

I first bought this among several other drugstore products whilst on a search to replace a high-end foundation that had become too expensive for me to continue buying. The e.l.f. Camo CC Cream had been suggested as something people who liked the other foundation also liked. I tried it, and I absolutely hated it at first -- it goes on very patchy, doesn't last well on my oily skin, and my primer (Smashbox Photo Finish) only made the problems worse. But, I was stuck with the bottle and I figured, "Well, I don't want it to go to waste. I'll keep it around in case I need a more moisturizing foundation."The turning point was actually when the Renaissance Fair came up a few months later. This CC Cream has a SPF 30 which is atypically high for foundation, so in that regard it was perfect for being out all day in the sun. I just had to find a way to make it stay. Since my Renfair makeup is a production that takes weeks or months of test runs there was ample time to devise a system, and ultimately using it in combination with Mehron Barrier Spray kept it on all day in 90 degree heat. Moreover, I learned in the course of my testing that, although the CC Cream tends to come off easier than my preferred foundation, it also repairs more easily than that foundation. Meaning: if I have to do something like wipe my nose and all the makeup comes off, it's simple to retouch with more makeup and not end up with a patchy effect.So, given the realities of wintertime I switched to the Camo CC Cream as my everyday makeup. I also went ahead and bought the e.l.f. Liquid Poreless Putty Primer and that also made a big difference in the wear of this makeup: with the putty primer it's not anywhere near as patchy, and it stays on much better, as well as getting a more flattering matte finish. The necessity of wearing it with the primer does add to the cost per application, but, it's still cheaper than that high-end stuff I was replacing.

I have to say, I remember when E.L.F. first debuted as a cosmetic brand, and they've come an INCREDIBLY long way. I have never been displeased with anything they've come out with in the last two or three years, and there are even a few products of theirs that were so good I either replaced my usual luxury products with it or simply cannot tell the difference. I've never tried a CC Cream before, but have been dying to give it a go, so when I saw this come out I simply HAD to order some.I will say, the package is about on par with what you would normally get from a drugstore brand- it's plastic tubing, and it's not anything especially gorgeous to look at, BUT!!! 1.05 oz is pretty good for the price and quality- my FENTY foundation that I normally use is like $30 or $40 and you still only get 1.08 oz.Now let's talk about coverage, baby! I am a very pasty lady, and because of this ANY hyperpigmentation is super noticeable, especially on my face. I have very rosy cheeks, I have very visible pores on my cheeks and nose, and of course I have some acne scarring from my teenage years. This product covers them smoothly, gracefully, and without any visible caking or creasing. I will say that this is a product you won't want to use for a REALLY full-coverage makeup look, but for my lovelies who like going for a softer, more natural look, this might just be perfect. It's nice and lightweight, and you don't really feel greasy even though it's got a more dewy, natural finish. I am very confident that I could wear this to work and nobody would notice that I had foundation on- which is exactly what I'm going for! And as someone who has difficulty finding foundation that is actually MY shade and not just 'the lightest shade of foundation this brand happens to carry', I do also have to say that they did a fantastic job with their shade matching.So again, I am VERY satisfied with this product, it works very well with products from other brands (I apply a cream blush instead of a powder, and I also tend to use brushes over beauty blenders which do have a way of sometimes scraping makeup off rather than applying more- I have not had a problem with that while using the E.L.F. CC Cream foundation). I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to give a new product a chance.
