wet n wild Coverall Cream Foundation

I forgot how much I love this foundation. When it stopped being sold in stores (replaced by the PhotoFocus line) I thought it'd been discontinued. I was as sad as it's possible to be about a makeup item being phased out. Then I realized that this product is still on Wet n Wild's website but I was hesitant to purchase. I'm weird when it comes to online shopping and try to avoid purchasing things online at all costs. After trying a few other foundations though (drugstore and high end) and not being impressed with any of them, I decided it was time to bite the bullet and re-up on my HG foundation.

When this came in the mail and I opened the box, I was a little disappointed right off. The packaging seems smaller to me for some reason. But there's always been 1fl oz of product, so maybe they just made the squeeze tube itself smaller? It may just be me, but if you get this and wonder if they're selling less product for the same price, they're not.

Speaking of the packaging... this is my favorite packaging for foundation ever. I had a bad experience with a drugstore foundation that comes with a pump, which makes me appreciate the fact that this comes in a plastic squeeze tube, even more than I did before. Yeah this foundation is pretty cheap ($3.99), but you'll never have to worry about crappy packaging malfunctioning, because this product is packaged like a dream. You can get every last bit of the product out too, which is important to me.

Onto the foundation itself. The shade range is terrible as a whole, but 815 Fair matches me perfectly. I have "normal" skin... gets slightly oily in the summer, slightly dry in the winter, and is slightly breakout prone year-round. This stuff just works. With or without a primer... with or without a setting powder... it lasts all day. It's so low maintenance. I saw a reviewer below me talk about how bad this smells and I completely disagree. I don't notice a scent to this at all.

This foundation isn't too liquid-y at all. It's a cream foundation that blends easily, doesn't get soaked up in your blending sponge too badly, and provides medium to full coverage depending on how much product you use and what look you're going for. The finish isn't matte and it isn't dewy. It looks like natural, flawless skin. I've never broken out from this stuff. When I got it in the mail and put it on again I could've cried. My skin looks beautiful again (the other foundations I was testing out over the past 6 months or so left much to be desired.)

Since this stuff is so cheap, I'll probably buy 10 tubes next time I place an order. I've tried out lots of foundations in my day, and nothing compares to this one.

I'm Not Gonna Lie, I Got This From The Dollar Tree And It Was Pretty Good Coverage (In My Option Its Is A Full Coverage), But It Gets Cakey And Patchy And They Have A Short Verity Of Shades And Omg It Stinks Like It Has The Worst Scent Ever!

Really nice foundation aside from the fact that it comes off onto your iPhone screen when you talk on the phone for a while.... you cannot lean your face against ANYTHING if you want to keep it there! Otherwise, super cute! 💛

Best HG foundation ever--covers well, lasts forever, full coverage but not noticeable in pores--so of course since I love it it's DISCONTINUED! Wah...

it's very thick and I have to wet my sponge when applying this to make it look more naturally because it goes on heavy. a little goes a long way and you have to make sure the color matches perfectly or you'll have terrible lines. but the coverage is great for a cheap foundation. I definitely have to use a powder on top of it and a little extra blush cause it washes me out a little. but for the price it is definitely workable.

I do not like it very much. My face turned oily after a few hours I put it (and I have very dry skin). Also it has some funky smell. But.. it works very well as an under eye concealer. Maybe I will buy it again for the under eye area.

There are sooo many good reviews on this product that when I first hated this product I thought it must just be me so I went back to it again and I wish I didn't!

First of all I have pretty oily skin, normal foundations on me last about 4 hours before getting oily and this was no exception. This was so hyped up for people with oily skin and it was the same as most for me. This was also hyped up for people with acne prone skin and the product itself claims to "coverall". Well no it didn't. I have clogged pores type acne all on my forehead and general acne on my cheeks and chin and this didn't cover them at all, in fact I'd say it was light to medium coverage.
I also don't mind foundation packaging like this where it squeezes out of a tube but I found I lost quite a bit of product this way by squeezing too much out.

But the worst thing about this foundation is the shades. I bought the shade Light and even when I have fake tanned this is still SO ORANGE and dark on me! Who came up with these shades?! The shade "light" should work for me normally when I don't have fake tan on but this didn't even work for me when I wore it.

I don't recommend this product at all even though it has very good reviews

This was my holy grail foundation for many years. I still love it. I have dry, sensitive, clog-prone skin, and this gave just the right amount of luminous finish on top of my sunscreen, and never clung, emphasized, or created dry patches. The finish was super natural and skin-like and it wasn't prone to transferring, though I did blot once during the day. The price was amazing and I found the packaging fine. The only downside to me is the use of methylisothiazolinone as a preservative. It doesn't personally bother my skin, but I've read enough studies to be wary of it, and I discontinued use of this foundation while I was pregnant, and had a hard time finding anything I liked nearly as much. I'd pay ten times what I do for it already! I have since moved on, mainly because of methylisothiazolinone, but if this were reformulated to be otherwise the same but with parabens (*no, parabens is not evil) I would go back to it in a heartbeat. I currently use Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder and I like it for my dry skin but it is a bit greasy over my sunscreen and it doesn't have as much coverage. Anyways, if methylisothiazolinone doesn't bother you, this is absolutely worth a try. It's a total steal. But it wasn't the price that attracted me, it was the finish.

I bought this product after doing a lot of research. I did not want to spend a fortune on a product that I was not gonna use very much. I use bb creams for daily makeup so this is my choice for big nights. This has great texture, did not cause breakouts, covers very well and stays on perfectly. My skin feels very dry sometimes, even then this does not get affected by dryness, great product for such small price.

i use this as a concealer because it's super cheap and full coverage. but for some reason I don't like it as a foundation...i just prefer my other one. but as a concealer this product is exceptional
