Covergirl: Not Impressed

      Ah, bad reviews are never my favorite to write, but it has to be done! I'm all about trying out new drugstore products to save money but still get some bang for my buck but I find that one of those drugstore brands that just doesn't ring my bell is Covergirl. I'm not saying that all of their products are bad, but I recently bought two lip products that just a bit lack luster.

Top: LipPerfection Jumbo Gloss Balm in Blush Twist, Bottom: Lipslick Smoochies in Luv U

                                                 Right: Lipslick Smoochie Left: Jumbo Gloss Balm

        Both of these products are balms and are meant to be moisturizing so I knew not to be blown away with the color outcome, and I will admit they are moisturizing but one thing I cannot get over is the smell and taste. Remember when you were little and you got your first lipstick? Remember that taste? Get ready to take a jog down memory lane because that is EXACTLY what these taste like, more so the Smoochies. Speaking of Smoochie, I'm not a fan of the name. Seems very childish to me, maybe that's why I'm not a fan of Covergirl. It reminds me of the makeup you wear in your early teens. 

      I don't think I will continue to wear the Smoochie since the scent and taste is much stronger in that one but I will continue to wear the Jumbo Gloss Balm with a slight gloss over it to add a little more color and get rid of the taste. I do prefer the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stains because they have more color pay off and they have a lovely peppermint scent and taste. 

     Is anyone else over Covergirl? Any products that you DO like and want me to try? Leave a comment below!
