Thank you to Kroger and CoverGirl for sponsoring this review. While CoverGirl provided me with a $30 gift card to purchase CoverGirl products at Kroger stores, the opinions I’ve expressed here are solely my own, represent my honest viewpoint, and not that of CoverGirl, Kroger, or Proctor & Gamble. I am making no claims about the products, just expressing my thoughtful opinion. Clever Girls Collective supports Blog With Integrity.
I’m a huge fan of the show America’s Next Top Model. Have you seen it?! Each week I wade through the drama so I can see the amazing pictures from the photo shoots, but my favorite episodes are the ones that include CoverGirl commercial and photo shoots. Why? Really because as a mom of two little ones, who is always on the run, I love to see all the new products they’ve come out with that can cut down on the amount of time it takes me to apply my make up in the morning. Being that I’m so faired skinned, CoverGirl products work great for my complexion because they have so many fair skinned foundation options. Yahoo!! I won’t even go into details on how much time it takes me to find the perfect shade of foundation in a department store.
I ended up purchasing the following products to review and have loved using them over the last week. So much so that they are the only 3 products I’ve been using.
Professional Use Powder – to give me a smooth and fresh look. Plus it’s for sensitive skin, which I have so it’s kept me from breaking out, especially around my chin.
Lash blast Length Mascara – because serious, who doesn’t want longer lashes?!
Lipslicks Lipgloss – to give my lips a little shine and honestly so it looks like I actually did put some effort into making myself look decent before leaving the house.
CoverGirl has amazing products at really affordable prices and they are sold at more retail locations than you would think. The products I got, I purchased at my local Ralph’s, which is where I do my grocery shopping anyway. I always love a one stop shop. Now just because I went with something more simple, it doesn’t mean you can be bold and fierce with CoverGirl . You totally can with some of their fun eyeshadows and lipsticks.
If you have tips for what you do when getting ready in the morning, I’d love to hear them. I can use all the help I can get! I’m hoping to get a tutorial Vlog up sometime in the next week showing you products I love to use when I apply my make up in the mornings.
In the meantime, Happy Monday friends!

So a while back I ditched my fancy Bare Minerals makeup (hello, it was eating up my budget for stuff like spray paint ;P ) and I started buying cheaper makeup. I now buy Covergirl's CG Smoothers and tinted moisturizers. They work great and are basically a 1/3 of the cost. 🙂

Isn't the Wetslicks gloss fantastic?! I purchased some for my review and I'm in love.
I got the lash exact mascara and I don't like it as much. I may have to give the lash blast a try.
