BATTLE OF THE DUPES #22: it Cosmetics vs. Revolution Pro

Now you might know that one of my favourite foundations is one from it Cosmetics which I did a blog post on it; REVIEW: IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream with SPF 50+ and have repurchased the minis in my shade as well as other shades for when I tan and even bought the full size in my natural colour (Casper the ghost shade). I saw on Instagram @dupeboss this post (click here to see it) so as I have just done a blog post on that product FIRST IMPRESSION: Revolution Pro CC Cream Perfecting Foundation SPF30, I thought why not see for myself if it is a dupe.

Before I start my skin was moisturised before I applied the foundations, my left (right in the picture) I will apply the Revolution Pro foundation with a brand new Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge and my right (left in the picture) I will apply the IT Cosmetics foundation with another brand new Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge. My skin at the moment is doing well, slightly dry. NOTE: I love my hair in the first picture.

IT Cosmetics: This foundation brings a lot of coverage to the skin as you can see. It is easily blend-able and just feels so nice on the face.

Revolution Pro: Now before we get onto how it is applied, I know these are the exact same shade but not far off and it isn't the shade we are see if its a dupe, it is more the formula. This foundation is nice to blend, not as full coverage as the other foundation.
