This isn't the first time that I've blogged about Veil's Cover Cream*, I mentioned it in my "Skin Saviours" post earlier this month. Back then, I promised I would do a full review on it and today, that's exactly what I'm going to be doing. I've been using this for over a month now and I've fallen in love with it. Full coverage, cover creams are some of my favourite "foundations" as they cover absolutely everything. I also find that they don't cake on the skin. I've tried a few before (both of which I continue to use); Keromask, Dermablend and I love them both equally. Just like I love this one. I was sent the Demonstration Kit* which contains 20 colours and a sample of Veil's Finishing Powder. This kit is recommended for make up artists as it teaches you how to blend and work with colours to create the perfect shade. Obviously I'm not a make up artist but this kit has been wonderful for me to try out the shades available and get a feel for the texture. This Cover Cream blends flawlessly into the skin - I use my Real Techniques Expert Face Brush to get a beautiful finish - and once it's set, it doesn't budge throughout the rest of the day until you remove it. It feels light on the skin; it doesn't cake the skin in make up or make it look like you're wearing make up either. It is as full coverage as coverage gets and it completely covers up my scarring. As always, I've included a before/after comparison photo as for me, there's no better way for me to tell you how good a foundation is than showing you.
Just look at that! You can see exactly why I love it and why it's given me the confidence I needed again. I will be buying a full pot of this. A full pot of Veil's Cover Cream starts at £23 and you buy one here. If you're not someone who needs full coverage all over your skin then Veil's Cover Cream would be perfect as a concealer for you. A little goes a long way and a tub of this would last you forever. I was also sent their Cleansing Cream* which is a lovely cleanser to use. I apply it to my skin, massage it around and then remove with a flannel and it completely removes all traces of the Cover Cream in an instant. To find out more about the brand, their products and to also buy them, click here. Veil also do their own Colour Matching Kits which retail for £6.50. I love this idea as it lets you match up your skin and try the product before you commit to buying a full sized version. You can also view all of my foundation comparison posts here.
