Cover Girl Nature Luxe Silk Foundation Review

6:00 AM

Okay Okay!!I admit it I said I would NEVER buy a Cover Girl Nature Luxe product again after the total fail of their Mascara and me not getting along. BUT I swear I have a good excuse!
I was watching Saaammage's review on this foundation and it made me so curious! She has really good taste and I find I do tend to like a lot of things she likes so I thought maybe just MAYBE this might be better then I had originally thought.AND it was on sale for $9.99 plus I had a $2 off coupon so eh why not right?
I have never ever really found a foundation that I really liked, I actually don't wear it really ever.....

Redefine luxury with our lightweight feeling silk foundation. Enriched with hints of natural jojoba, rosehip & seal buckthorn extracts. 


Purchased at London Drugs $9.99 - $2 coupon
I think $7.99  is very reasonable since this will last me forever!


The packaging is alright, the same as all the other Nature Luxe products. I like the squeeze tube, a pump would be ideal of course but the price would go up.
I also like the slim packing, easier to store.
Of course glass container types always look nicer but again the price goes up and this can just fit easily in my makeup drawer.


I purchased this in 310-Flax. Second lightest shade =( . They do have a fair amount of shades to offer compared to some of the other foundations I have seen.



You can really smell the cucumber scent and I actually really like it. Not over powering and once applied you don't notice the smell.


Okay I think I take the picture too close because this just makes my hand look all wrinkly and old! lol. But this formula is seriously so light and it blends like a dream!

I find this a little bit more then a light foundation, more towards medium but you really don't notice you have it on. You don't need a ton, it blends so nicely! I don't notice a huge difference in lasting power compared to other drug store foundations I have tried, honestly I find that nothing stays on my face all day even with primer. I would say the lasting power is alright, nothing amazing, nothing terrible.

I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good drug store foundation, I think this does even out skin tones nicely and it can't be any worse then most of the crap on the shelves these days.

Don't forget to order your $2 coupon Here (for Canada.. There is a USA one too I believe but since I don't have an account I couldn't find it)

Have you had a chance to try this foundation?

Cover Girl Nature Luxe Mousse Mascara

6:00 AM

Cover Girl's Nature Luxe Mascara Made with a touch of Bee's Wax, with this light weight formula this is able to give your lashes easier lift then most mascara's.
Sounds interesting doesn't it?



"Discover luxurious volume that feels light as air. We took out a select few heavy synthetics and put in a light touch of beeswax - for luxurious lashes that are 20% lighter*. 2X more volume!"



From the packaging, it just looks like another Nature Luxe product.. It's nice but nothing too special.



 This is quite new to Canada, with that comes the price of $10.99. I paid $11 for mascara! Wow what was I thinking? I never ever pay that much but I was very interested to see what this formula might be like.


 
The brush is a cool green color, and looks very spiky!!

 I think the type of brush helps the mascara from getting all clumpy on the brush


Okay BEWARE!!



I don't know why but I just find this picture creepy looking lol. This is my attempt to catch the outcome of the mascara..This is 2 coats PLUS It is cheating a little bit, but I put a waterproof top coat of L'oreal's voluminous as I always do no matter what. As well my lashes are curled in this picture. It might look like it's ok mascara but my lashes are decent in length just not volume, which you can see in the picture.

Overall I wouldn't purchase this mascara again.Here are a couple reasons why:

*The brush is so sharp, if you think the L'oreal Million Lashes is a pointy brush, then I wouldn't advise you to use this. I don't find that one to poke me but this one sure did. Bristles are very sharp on the end
*Did not give my lashes ANY volume what so ever.
*Price was too expensive for what the outcome was.

Now for the good parts


*Not clumpy
umm that's all I got =/

This isn't terrible, I have tried way worse before but I think my expectations were a little bit high since it sounded like a different kind of mascara that might do wonders for my lashes.I haven't actually found a Cover Girl mascara that I like, maybe they just don't work with my type of lashes?
I say wait for a sale if you are really interested in trying this.

Would I repurchase? Nope
Would I recommend? No

Have you had a chance to try this yet? Or hear any reviews on it?
