Review: 5 Camouflage Cream Palette by Make Up For Ever




Bought this palette bout 6 years ago and oh my, it still looks untouched!
I wrote this review in 2009 (in my old blog) and my opinion is still the same. It does not do the job and not worth the price. Hence, the untouched palette as I barely used it. Well, probably less than 10 times or 5 times. 

 When I first got it, I was really excited as it claims to be perfect for covering dark spots and other skin blemishes and unifying the complexion, even when wearing light makeup!! Mine is Palette no. 5 which contains MAKE UP FOR EVER's 5 main corrective shades.

The orange is to correct the bluish under the eye.
The green is to correct the redness.
The purple is supposed to do the highlight.
The light cream is the concealer while the darker shade is for contouring.

The texture is creamy and the first time I opened it, it was oily all over the palette. I don't know what the purpose for this oil is and yeah, it was quite disgusting! The oil also makes the palette kinda messy and you can see that from my palette.


Oily!!!

As I am too excited to use it, I tried it on my face last night to see what difference it can make on my face. Unfortunately, I cannot see any difference though. The staying power is really bad and I STILL CAN SEE MY BLEMISHES, REDNESS AND ACNE! 

Basically these are the PROS and CONS of this product:

PROS:
- You can get 5 colours in one palette.
So it is easy to bring it along whenever you go.


CONS:
- When I first opened the palette, it is oily and quite disgusting for me.
- It is not working for me, NOT AT ALL!!
- The products fade away easily.


Overall, I only can think of one benefit for this product. I am very disappointed, as it is not working for me; it does not correct my redness and hides my blemishes or acnes.

p/s: This review is based on my personal opinion on the products. It may work for others but definitely not for me.
