Oil-Free Matte Cream Foundation, Fair, 1 oz

I’ve tried so many BB creams over the years, and this one surprised me in the best way. The texture is light and blends easily with either fingers or a sponge. What stood out the most is how well it controlled shine—my T-zone usually gets oily by midday, but this formula stayed matte without looking cakey or heavy. The coverage is light to medium, but it evens out redness really well and looks very natural. It doesn’t settle into fine lines or cling to dry spots, and it wears comfortably throughout a full work shift. I also appreciate that it’s oil-free, which makes it a great option for acne-prone or combination skin. Shade matching was accurate, and it layers nicely under powder or concealer without pilling. If you want something breathable with good oil control that still gives your skin a smooth, even finish, this is a great everyday product.

Honestly one of my favorite face products!!! I always thought tinted moisturizers were too oily and foundation was too cakey, but this BB cream is the perfect middle point of the 2!! More pigmented than a tinted moisturizer but light enough that it looks like you just have amazing skin. Doesn’t highlight dry areas & stays pretty matte on my oily skin (though I also powder & setting spray over.) repurchased for years

I’ve been using the Covergirl Clean Matte BB Cream and I’m honestly really impressed. If you struggle with oily skin like I do, this is such a good everyday product. It gives a really nice natural matte finish without making my skin look dry or cakey. One of my favorite things is how it helps control that oily shine, especially throughout the day, my face looks more smooth and balanced instead of greasy. The formula feels lightweight on the skin, almost like you’re not wearing anything, but it still evens out your complexion nicely. It’s perfect for those days when you want something simple and breathable instead of a full foundation. Pros: Controls oil and shine really well Lightweight and comfortable Natural matte finish Great for everyday wear Cons: Light coverage (not for full glam looks) Overall: If you have oily or combination skin and want something quick, affordable, and effective, I definitely recommend this!

This makeup is better than any of the rest I've tried. It doesn't settle into wrinkles and doesn't stay wet and greasy. Great makeup especially for the low price.

I have been experimenting with different foundations/bb creams lately because I wanted something lighter that was not going to break me out. I LOVE L'oreal Infallible Pro-Matte foundation, but find that it upsets my skin a bit. My skin is very very sensitive to products and will break out after wearing a product just ONE time. Although this sucks, it also is very useful in helping me quickly eliminate products that will or will not work for me. For example, I tried the Maybelline Fit me Foundation (it has a TON of amazing reviews). The finish was flawless and really nice, but after wearing it for the first time for a few hours, my skin had broken out ALL OVER. My skin was completely clear that morning when I applied the foundation. So now on to my review of this bb cream: I ordered the Covergirl Clean Matte BB Cream based off of all the positive reviews. Here are the highlights: -I've worn this several times already ALL DAY and my skin has not broken out once. -I apply this with a slightly damp beauty blender and while the finish is not exactly matte, it's beautiful. It doesn't even look like you're wearing makeup; it dries to a soft dewy matte finish (if that's a thing!) I DO wear Maybelline Blur primer underneath. -Again, this DOES NOT LOOK LIKE MAKEUP ON YOUR SKIN! Very very natural finish all day. -Did not prevent my face from getting oily throughout the day, but it's fine, I just blot. The finish still looked natural and healthy all day; no caking, no oxidation. The staying power is impressive given that it's just a bb cream. -The coverage is about light/medium. If you have a ton of blemishes you are trying to cover, you will likely need a lot of concealer. -I was really upset that there were only so few color options available, so I bought 3 of them (light, medium and deep) so that I can blend my own color depending on how tan I am. The darker colors are very warm, so I blend in a little bit of LA Girl Blue Pigment. This stuff is awesome! -Even though there are very few shade options, I realized that since this is not a full coverage foundation the colors just blend in nicely with your skin tone as long as you selected a close enough match to your color. So don't stress too much about the color choice and buy multiple colors if needed and blend your own custom color. Overall, this is an amazing bb cream and I think I will replace my L'oreal foundation. I LOVE that it looks like I'm not wearing makeup and the fact that my face doesn't have pimples all over it at the end of the day when I wash this off is just awesome! Definitely worth a try!!

Like you, I was searching for a less heavy foundation to wear every day–you know, something that still has minimal to light coverage but doesn't look too 'heavy baked.' Amazon of course recommend me to two products: (1) CG Smoothers and (2) CG Clean Matte BB Creams. So I bought both and compared, so you don't have to... Please note, I'm a 30 year old mom still suffering will occasional breakouts and uneven skintone. Nothing new, just life... I normally wear the following; - Revlon Colorstay foundation in 150, Buff, - Maybelline FitMe Powder in 110, Porcelain 1) CG Smoothers- 805 Fair to Light The consistency of this product is really smooth and light, more moisturising than tinting. Very light coverage, a little goes a long way, but also doesn't feel heavy on your face. I love that the color is true and doesnt oxydize. You definitely however need a setting powder to refresh every now and again. (4.5/5 stars) 2)CG Clean Matte BB Creams. It's a very dense BB cream, it's similar consistency to sunscreen, heavy. It also has a very heavy sunscreen odor to it too. However it's medium coverage and very matte—keeping your face shine free all day. It's not very blendable, and you need a lot of product. Please note: this product does oxydize and gets darker. It's more medium toned than Fair and I do not recommend it for people with dry skin (3/5 stars)

The COVERGIRL Oil-Free Matte Cream Foundation in Fair is perfect for keeping my skin looking smooth and shine-free all day. The formula is lightweight, blends easily, and gives a natural matte finish without feeling heavy or cakey. It provides good coverage for everyday wear and works well with other makeup products. I also like that it’s oil-free, so my skin stays comfortable even during long days. Overall, a reliable, high-quality foundation I’d definitely repurchase.

I'm a tough reviewer and I LOVE this product. It matches my skin tone well, covers imperfections naturally, great price, applies easily, doesn't break me out, and best of all it... it actually likes to stick to blemishes so that you don't need a separate concealer. All day wear too. I wouldn't recommend it for full glam or fancy events, but this is the best easy everyday make-up for oily or combination skin, especially acne prone skin. Feels good (not heavy) on your skin too.

Ok

Good as expected

I like it it gives matte finish
