Cover Girl Outlast Double Lipshine Lipgloss ($9.99) Meet the dynamic duo of shine! One side delivers opalescent color with serious staying power, the other lays on a liquid gloss, for shimmering color that lasts up to 10 hours.
My Thoughts:
I actually don’t like this long lasting lipgloss as much as I as like Cover Girl Outlast All Day Lipcolor. Performance wise, the gloss perfermormed as well as the lipcolor. It was definetely long lasting. The gloss lasted through meals, drinks, and a work out. The color of the gloss was comparable to the Cover Girl Outlast All Day Lipcolor. The big difference between Cover Girl Outlast Double Lipshine Lipgloss and Cover Girl Outlast All Day Lipcolor was the gloss. The lipcolor had a lipstick form of gloss while this one had a liquid gloss. I much prefer the lipstick gloss because it was so much less messier than the liquid gloss. I found the liquid gloss to be too glopey and gooey for my liking. If you can’t decide between this gloss and the lipcolor, go for the lipcolor.

Cover Girl Outlast All Day Lipcolor ($9.99) The #1 original long-wear lipcolor! Our advanced formula with resilient, brilliant coverage, color and shine gives you up to 16 hours of color that stays true in just 2 easy, breezy steps. Outlast has a moisturizing topcoat that helps lock in shine-no feathering, no bleeding.
My Thoughts:
This is most definitely an outlast all day lipcolor. It lasts all day and all night. It lasts so long I have to use Pond’s Cold Cream to remove it at the end of the day. It’s not as drying as most long wearing lipcolor, but it can be drying. Just be sure to moisturize well before applying the lipcolor and to be sure your lips are well exfoliated also. This allows the color to go on smoothly and won’t accentuate any dry, cracked lips. The best thing about Cover Girl Outlast All Day Lipcolor, besides the lasting color, is the amazing color selection you get. The only complaint I have about Cover Girl Outlast All Day Lipcolor is that the color of the tube doesn’t reflect the actual color of the product. It ends up being darker than the tube color. I found this to be one of the best long lasting lipcolor I have ever tried.
*Tip how to apply: Be sure lips are well moisturized and flake free. Apply a thin layer of lipcolor. Allow the lipcolor to dry. It’s best not to layer so much of the lipcolor, but if you feel the need to layer on more, do so in thin layers. After the lipcolor dries, apply gloss. Viola! Long lasting lipcolor.

Cover Girl Smoothers Aquasmooth Compact Foundation ($9.49) Designed with AquaCurrent Science, this vitamin-enriched formula directs moisture to your skin’s surface to improve its condition over time, while giving smooth, even coverage that makes imperfections virtually vanish before your eyes. This solid makeup transforms into a liquid during application, then dries to an even, powder-light finish.
My Thoughts:
I found this foundation to be okay. It does feel like you’re applying liquid foundation, but yet, it dries to a powder finish. When you apply the foundation, you have to blend quickly because it dries fairly quickly. It accentuated my dry spots, which I did not like. This actually reminds me of foundation sticks. I won’t be repurchasing Cover Girl Smoothers Aquasmooth Compact Foundation because I feel there are better drug store foundations.

Cover Girl Outlast Lipstain ($7.99) The water-based colorants of Outlast Lipstain give lips a beautiful, lightweight flush of color that won’t come off, lasting for hours without the heavy look or feel of an ordinary lipstick. Its pen-like precision applicator makes it easy to define your lips-just draw on color without any hassle!
My Thoughts:
This lipstain was no good at all. It’s like you’re taking a dried out marker and trying to apply color to your lips. Not a pleasant feeling. The colors are outrageously bright. Like popsicle or kool-aid bright. It comes out a lot brighter than the color on the tip reflects. The lipstain was extremely drying and dried unevenly. Some parts of my lips were darker than others. Don’t waste your money on this stain.

Cover Girl Lashblast Luxe ($8.49) The blackest-black LashBlast formula, now tinted with luxe shimmers. The giant Luxe brush helps blast lashes to their biggest, boldest, and most beautifully shimmering. In 4 shades that are ready to match your every mood.
My Thoughts:
This is great for daytime lashes. If you want night time lashes like dramatics lashes, i wouldn’t recommend it. Even though there are shimmers in the mascara, it’s not very noticeable. This mascara seperates my lashes well and doesn’t clump, even after applying 3 layers. I wouldn’t repurchase it though because I prefer the original LashBlast mascara. It gave my lashes more volume.
