NEW! CoverGirl + Olay Face Lift Effect Firming Makeup



Firming Makeup
$17.99 @ Walgreens ($14.99 w/ Walgreens rewards card)

The foundation is very similar to the original CoverGirl & Olay Advanced Radiance Creme Makeup except with a $18 price point instead of $6. CoverGirl has some of the more decent skincare makeup lines out there today in the drugstore only reasons why more people don't buy it is 1.) Price and 2.) the color range. This particular foundation had only 4 shades on display in Walgreens. The packaging is a plastic container which I am not a fan of at all. Containers like these can turn into a cesspool for bacteria if you are not careful. So use a clean makeup spatula or clean cotton q-tip to get the product out. DON'T use your fingers!!! 

The foundation texture is a mixture between a creme and a mousse. It is not light but not extremely heavy either. It applied very easily but took a little while to blend and smooth out. The coverage is a nice medium coverage. I don't recommend layering this foundation or otherwise it can get greasy. Definitely set with a powder for a longer wear time (This product started to come off a bit after 3-4 hours). 

The product itself claims to give a face lift effect. It gave a nice coverage and finish but comparing it to a face lift I think this one looks a lot better than the surgery.

De-Puffer Eye Concealer
$7.99 @ Walgreens ($5.99 w/ Walgreens rewards card)

The line also has a de-puffer concealer to combat the puffiness of under eye circles. The actually de-puffer essentially comes from the metal tip and not the product itself. The metal tip has a cool feeling to it that allows it to gently de-puff the eye. The concealer is not anything special but gives a light and awake look to the skin and is easy to wear and blend.
