CoverGirl Clean Whipped Creme Review

While ago at the grocery store I notice a big display of new CoverGirl products and I was immediately drawn in.  Like any makeup addict would be!! ... There were new blushes, lip products, a new mascara and whipped creme foundation.  I've recently been on the hunt for the "perfect foundation", if that's possible, so I grabbed the foundation, CoverGirl Clean Whipped Cream foundation in 320 creamy natural.  

The CoverGirl website says:

"Our lightweight whipped crème foundation gives your skin a boost of moisture without the greasy, shiny finish. You’ll love the dreamy, 100% breathable formula that leaves your skin looking smooth, natural, and matte. Available in 10 shades to match your skin tone."

First thing I noticed about the product is how light it is.  If you're considering picking up this product, definitely take some time and look into the shade.  I am a very fair skin type and usually pick up foundations in the 100's. Not this time.  

This foundation would be a medium to full coverage foundation and has a great build-able.  I put a layer all over my face and added a second layer on areas that needed a little more attention.  Adding the second layer allowed me to skip concealer and didn't look cakey either.  

My first initial impression with this product - I was very impressed! Went on easily, seemed to cover all my problem areas and had a good matte finish.   However, as the day went on I noticed some shine that then moved into oil as the day progressed.  

Let me stop for a second and explain my skin type - For the most part I have normal skin, but can get oily around my chin area, especially during the summer months.

I tried switching up my primer - tried both SmashBox and Hard Candy - and no primer at all.  Unfortunately, nothing seemed to help. No primer at all was the worst!! By quitting time at work, my face looked like an oil slick!
