So without any delay let's get into the review.

My experience with
L.A girl Pro Coverage HD illuminating foundation
Packaging
The foundation comes in a plastic bottle with a pump packaging. Packaging wise it is really travel-friendly and sturdy.
How is the consistency, coverage and blending power of L.A girl Pro Coverage HD illuminating foundation
This foundation has a runny consistency. And as per its claims, this really gives full coverage. I really loved when it effortlessly blended into my skin. This foundation can hide minor dark circles and dark spots too. And I completed my base makeup just in one pump. Frankly speaking, you will not need even one pump because I took one pump and there was some extra foundation left on my hand. I use beauty blender from PAC Cosmetics to blend all of my foundations and the consistency of this La girl.. is perfect as it makes the foundation to blend in no time. So if you are using a brush to blend then you may probably need just half a pump of it and you will be done with your face and neck. Of course, you can build it up later. But I would recommend to start with lesser quantity, built it up gradually in order to get a beautiful finish.
How is the finish, staying power of L.A girl Pro Coverage HD illuminating foundation?
On oily skin
So as the name suggests this foundation really gives a dewy full coverage finish to the face without making it look artificial *sounds great right?* But at the same time, it feels sticky too. And oily skin people like me may love the glow at the beginning, but if you don't set this foundation with the powder you are going to regret it later. After setting it with powder the dewy look was gone and it stayed on my face just for 2-3 hours. After that, this foundation started to crease around my nose and made my face oilier. And the worst thing that happened to me was that it started settling into my pores. It claims to be an HD foundation, so I wanted to test if it really blurs out my pores. That is why I tried it without any primer. I personally do not use primer and neither are my pores so large that I could see foundation settling into my pores. I do have visible pores around my nose where usually many other foundations do settle but I did not notice any foundation settling on my nose the way this did. This foundation accentuated my pores especially the pores on my nose. So I would highly recommend you to prep your skin with a good pore filling primer prior using this foundation or better skip this foundation. So this L.A girl Pro Coverage HD illuminating foundation is definitely not for oily skin. I personally didn't like the way it made my face look after 2-3 hours.
On normal- dry skin
However, every single thing seemed to be working in an opposite manner on a normal skin. It gave a very beautiful natural and glowy finish on my sister's face who has a normal skin. It did feel sticky in the beginning but after some time it was all fine and she has to just set only the usual areas where she sweats. Do not set your entire face else the beautiful illuminating effect will not be visible. She is in love with this foundation whereas I don't like it all. It did not make her look patchy too. For people with normal to dry skin this is one of the foundations which you will add to your favorites list after trying and it is perfect for weddings and parties too.
