i think the cover girl whipped foundation is a creamy texture whereas the maybelline one is a thicker, "mousseier" consistency. if you want reviews on both, check out Makeupalley - Street Smart Beauty - Homepage =)

Re: *Thread for CoverGirl Products!*
I really love my Covergirl Clean makeup, I've been using it for about six moths now and no breakouts! Since I have sensitive skin, the Frangrance Free version is best for me. My mom's been using it all her life and she has barely any wrinkles, so that's another plus. I don't really like my VolumeExact mascara because it dries my lashes and eyes out and makes them sting, which is weird. Sure, it adds a lot of volume but it's not enough to sacrifice my lash comfort for lol. I have higher hopes for Lashblast, which I want to buy SOON. But I adore my Wetslicks Fruit Spritzers, it smells awesome and adds the perfect glow, the only downside is the seal on it so it doesn't leak is busted oh well at least it's cheap
Has anyone tried the Lashblast? I hear it leaves your lashes soft but I don't know.

Re: *Thread for CoverGirl Products!*
Aqua Smooth foundation. I cannnot say enough good things about this. It has the coverage of mac studio tech, but it cleared up my skin totally and was a fraction of the price of studio tech. My face at the beginning looked horrible. I was using studio fix fluid. My face had all kinds of pimples. then My friend suggested i try it and i could tell after one application my face was less oily and not irritated. Within a week my face had healed and now it is so smooth. I love it, I buy a backup all the time! Go and try it for the money it's worth it.

Re: *Thread for CoverGirl Products!*
Most Covergirl shadows are really great...they usually don't crease. They do tend to break, however. I've done this I don't know how many times...
Last night, I ran out of mascara and found a new kind of CG. It's called Lash Blast.
Let me tell you, the brush is huge and it gave me lots of last definition! No clumps, and all the the lashes are individual, not all clumped together. I got length too. I would recommend it.

i'm not sure if it is oil free, but oil cuts oil so that could be the reason it works well on my skin. And i love it because it smells like absolutely nothing.

Re: *Thread for CoverGirl Products!*
I don't really like Cover Girl. The fruit spritzers are alright.

I have the lastblast...in the orange tube. I've been using it for like 2 weeks now. I like it okay. I loved it the first few days, but I don't know if I love it so much now. It's not a mascara I would use everyday. The

Re: *Thread for CoverGirl Products!*
I really love CG...IMO, it's a fantastic line. The makeup is good-quality and inexpensive!
I'm deeply, utterly, head-over-heels in love with the Cheekers blush in Snow Plum. I use it as a highlighter on the tops of my cheekbones. I'm addicted to it. It gives you the perfect barely there shimmer. It lasts forever too. I've had mine since August I think, use it everyday and I can't even see pan!
I also really like their new Wetslicks Fruit Spritzers. I have it in Fig and Guava. They're really pretty---not sticky at all with good color payoff. And they smell delicious. Perfect to keep in your purse for touchups.
Lash Blast is really amazing too. I'm a mascara freak and it really gives you thick, dark, volumized lashes. The packaging is cute too and it's easy to find in your makeup bag.
However, Lash Exact and Volume Exact are horrible. No color payoff, it makes me look like I'm not wearing any mascara. My eyelashes look wimpy and limp. Ick!

Yeah Lash Exact was terrible imo...with Volume Exact I could actually tell that I was wearing mascara but it didn't really make a huge difference in terms of volume (or length)...and they flaked like crazy!

Re: *Thread for CoverGirl Products!*
TRUconceal concealer is awful. It's way too watery to provide any real coverage, waste of money.
Fruit Spritzers are GREAT! They smell so yummy and aren't sticky. I got them BOGO at Wal-greens yesterday... want to go back and buy them all
CG Smoothers tinted moisterizer is fantastic too.
Lash Exact mascara, personally I LOVE it, I am going to buy it again when time comes. People complain about not getting much product, but I personally don't use more than 4ml before it's time to pitch it anyway.
