Outlast 3 in 1 stay fabulous foundation
Claims to have the lasting power of a primer the coverage of a concealer and the blend-ability of a foundation.
The Good:
- glass bottle plus a pump dispenser, no product is wasted
- it is a liquid (will run down your hand as you apply it with the other)
- blends amazingly
- does not get oily or "move" during the day
- lovely lively glow with out glitter gives a semi matte finish
- not good for dry areas, does tend to highlight them
- looks cakey over blemishes (I cropped mine out!)
- coverage is not full maybe light/medium works on minor skin discoloration not redness
I am happy I tried this. I do really like how it feels on my skin very natural. I don't mind touching my face with this on. I do wish it didn't cake up on blemishes as much as I want clear skin I do not have it...It really lasts the day quite nicely but not HG for me. I wouldn't recommend it for people who want to cover blemishes.
Lip perfection jumbo gloss balm
Similar to the clinique chubby stick but I find Covergirl has more youth full color choices 3 shades easily caught my attention.
The Good:
- watermelon twist has no glitter (a plus for me)
- better color deposit that what I excepted
- very soft and moisturizing
- wears off evenly on the lips, no staining effect
The Bad:
- doesn't last too long about 1 1/2hrs
- the glossiness may look too young? maybe it is just this shade but it comes off very young looking in person, I am sure it is just too pink for me...
Overall thoughts
I was looking to try something new. Lately I have been leaning more towards gloss-balm hybrids this kinda made up my mind I may be going back to lipsticks. I like lipsticks lasting power a tad more than I enjoy a gloss.
Both great new releases from Covergirl.

try the revlon just bitten kissable lip balm stain!!! i love those!!! :D same idea as tarte or the clinique chubby sticks! :D
ReplyDeletebtw, i got your package today. i even got surprised that canada post was doing mail on a sunday!!
thanks!! I'm so happy that i really ended up loving the scent!!! :D at least for me i think it smells fresh and pleasant (not floral or fruity). and the lovely trinkets (jewelry, purse & gift tags) were so adorable!! can't wait to use them during the holidays! :D
@libys11 I am shocked it got to you on a Sunday as well! but glad you got it. I really enjoyed finding a cute way to package everything up and really happy you enjoy the scent. It is unique and not an obvious feminine scent.
ReplyDeleteI have tried the revlon balm stains and loved the color at first but found I didn't like them when the stain was wearing off it kinda left my lips dry and not so pretty:(
That colour looks so pretty on you!! x
