I am exploring ways to cover my tattoos for my future wedding because I found even with sleeves, many are lace, and my tattoos are still visible. So far this appears to be a good option. Luckily, I have identical tattoos on each arm, so I have an ideal scenario for you to see the differences between make-up and no make-up!
1. Buildable The first layer I put on was still somewhat transparent, but by the 3rd layer I was good to go. The container is a good size so I'm not worried I'll run out as I build, but I'm only looking to use the product for two events.
2. Skin match I bought the 2nd shade up from fair and it is still very pale (or perhaps I'm more tan that I thought). If I proceed with this option, I'll buy a powder close to my skin shade to try to match. However, it's not egregious, it would probably work as is under a lace sleeve
3. Comparable options I've attached a photo of the makeup next to the cover-up sleeves. The sleeve is also the incorrect shade for my arm, but I don't have a way of correcting the issue, giving the sleeve the disadvantage here. Also, surprisingly, the sleeve is more transparent than the makeup.
4. Smearing/wearability It's been 10 minutes and the makeup still feels a bit sticky, and has left a mark on my pants. I will update this review if it stains. I did put some powder on the product, but may not have been generous enough. I suggest picking up a translucent powder as well. Perhaps setting spray and primer too.
