[During, and after my COVERGIRL makeover]
At the fabulous fashion week retreat, the Style Coalition NYFW Influencer Lounge, I was able to relax, eat some delish food, and get beautified by skilled makeup artists. COVERGIRL products abounded at the beauty stations, and so did a bevy of glamorous looks from finger tips, to eye lashes! Saying that I am addicted to COVERGIRL’s LIPPERFECTION in ‘flame’ is a bit of an understatement (try more like you will never find me without it!), so I was super excited to try three of the brand’s new products, as I expected a similar, covetous reaction to Clump Crusher by LashBlast Mascara, Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation, & Outlast Stay Brilliant Nail Gloss.
For me, all three of these products are fashion week survival essentials since I need a good, reliable mascara to open the eyes, a brilliantly-hued opaque polish to decorate my digits, and a concealer and foundation combo that will smooth and cover any signs of exhaustion which are CERTAIN to be present! Thank goodness for the nail and makeup artists found at the lounge, as it was fully equipped with plenty of COVERGIRL products to test, and you KNOW I tend to be in desperate need of a touch up or two after all of the running around that occurs throughout the week!
You can always follow along for more info, fashion tidbits, and inspirational makeup looks at COVERGIRL’s Facebook page, but here’s my favorite parts of the new products that I tested there:
Clump Crusher by LashBlast Mascara: no clumps! Go ahead and layer on the strokes — it.won’t.happen. No almost poking your eye out either; the curved wand helps you grab every lash in one fell swoop, so you won’t have to angle the brush dangerously close to your peepers. Four fab shades — I LOVE this, as I tend to be a brown mascara girl, and it’s hard to find a good one; I have TWO options with the new Clump Crusher — yippee!
Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-in-1 Foundation: caked on makeup is not in, and hopefully never will be, so don’t feel that you will ever have to resort to that look. This foundation packs a primer, concealer, AND foundation into one step to save you time, money, and comes in a ton of shades for a perfect match (14). Through micro-correctors, microscopic topography modifiers, and polymer technology, or as I’d like to call it, magic, you get lightweight, yet full, incredible coverage.
Outlast Stay Brilliant Nail Gloss: I LOVE nail polish, and truly feel naked without it; I’d rather paint my nails and be late for an appointment than show up without anything on them! If you’re like me, you’ll love that you can choose from 45 colors, perfect for mixing and matching, and creating two of my favorite current nail-trend looks: a bright French tip, and a half moon mani! Plus these polishes have a built in top coat and dry super duper fast, so you may be able to paint your nails…and still be on time for that appointment!
