Co-creators Jenny Frankel and Lee Graff
A few weeks back I was invited to the first ever Cover FX beauty blogging event. Which of course I was so excited about because I have been a fan of their products for well over a year when my makeup artist friend, Michelle French, suggested it to me. She told me the magic of how their total coverage cream foundation can even cover up tattoos and that they are an industry staple and so I was sold.
I have since been in love with their products. It even made my 'Top ten things I can't live without.' They are a Canadian company that was born out of Lee Graff's specialty in corrective cosmetology within Sunnybrook Hospital. During the SARS incident it was quite difficult to get people in a Toronto hospital she branched, joined forces with Jenny Frankel and they inadvertently started a cosmetics company.
And what a dynamic duo they are. Their company, now celebrating it's ten year anniversary, to astonishing heights. They have won the "Best Prestige Foundation" three years in a row from Cosmetics Magazine and have joined the ranks in the beauty industry as one of the best go-to products around. They sell in Canada, US and the UK and have been depended upon by the likes of Angelina Jolie to cover up tattoos when filming.

The evening started with lovely cupcakes made especially by Sugar Baking, which of course I couldn't eat (#GlutenFree) but I really wanted too ...Learning the art of flawless foundation
which was at first a little awkward for me. Blending foundation - who knew I could do it? But the results were fabulous. I will share the details of how to do this in another post. But I am pretty sure that if you are shopping for a foundation you will want to look into their products because they are all made from a dermatologist and a chemical engineer, they are all good for your skin.So during the night we learned the art of getting a flawless face through their 3 Step Essentials Kit
I *may* have gotten some goodies to try
