CoverGirl Continuous Color Lipstick

kristen — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 23:43:44 +0000

Long wear lipsticks are traditionally drying, despite the fact that they all claim they are not. CoverGirl’s Continuous Color Lipstick lasts for hours, but it actually leaves your lips in better condition! We tried it for work and waited for the inevitable parched feeling but it never came – the lipstick lasted a full day at work. It’s no wonder; this lipstick is 50% moisturizers, including Vitamin E and Vitamin A. If you’re looking for a nice red matte lipstick, try their Really Red shade 575.

If you have some extra time to play with different makeup looks, try CoverGirl Exact Eyelights Eye-Brightening Shadows. They have a collection of shadows for each eye color family – blues, greens, browns, and hazels. When we saw the palette for brown eyes, which includes gold, black, cream and silver, we though it would be a disaster. But when we followed the instructions, the colors actually did look very pretty together! We really liked the soft bristle brush that comes with the shadow, you get more professional looking results.

Tip: To stop your eye shadow from flaking on your cheeks when you apply it, reverse your makeup routine. Put your eyeshadow on first, then be sure to brush off misplaced eyeshadow before apply foundation and concealer.

Almay Intense I-Color Eyeliner

Makeup is so often about concealing and hiding, we appreciate Almay’s approach, which is to enhance what you already have. Their Intense I-Color Eyeliner collection is made to make the color of your eyes really stand out. There are four shades – royal slate for brown eyes, midnight black for brown eyes, deep jade for hazel eyes, and rich mocha for green eyes. Beyond the eye color enhancers, you may just want to try these because Almay simply makes good eyeliner. Their reputation for hypoallergenic makeup is certainly a plus when it comes to eyes! But what we really liked was the built in smudger at the end of the pencil, which is gives a soft and more professional look. This kohl eyeliner is also soft so you don’t have to worry about dragging delicate eyelid skin. The only bummer is that this eyeliner is not automatic, so you’ll have to get your sharpener out every now and then. Looking to save? Almay offers printable coupons on their site!

For seriously aging or dry skin, we have found the real deal. CoverGirl Simply Ageless Foundation goes on smoothly just as all foundations do for dry skin. But the difference is that it doesn’t become trapped in lines, it stays suspended over your skin so your makeup looks like it’s just been applied all day. This foundation also contains a healthy dose of Olay Regenerist Serum and an SPF of 22, so the condition of your skin will improve as time goes on. We’re excited to know that we can get a product of this quality for aging skin without going to a department store.

The concept of enhancing what you already have is always appealing. So we tried CoverGirl’s Exact Eyelights Eye-Brightening Mascara. This line of mascara contains light reflecting metallics and a subtle tint that brings out blue, brown, hazel, and green eyes. Although we didn’t see a drastic difference as far as eye color enhancement, we really liked the formula. This mascara has a good balance between lengthening and thickening, and the brush left no clumps behind as promised.

Lip gloss never tasted so good! We tried Covergirl Wetslicks Fruit Spritzer in Plum Splash and liked the subtle fruit flavor. This gloss is fun but effective; it contains botanicals that improve lip condition over time.

If you like false eyelashes then you will love CoverGirl Lashblast Volume Blasting Mascara. It gives the look of dramatic eyelashes in just one coat. We found that we didn’t have to use multiple layers to get the volume we wanted. Another plus is that it removes easily with soap and water so you don’t have spend your evenings removing your eye makeup. It’s hypoallergenic so contact lens wearers can join in the fun too.
