COVERGIRL TRUBLEND!!!!!!!!!


Hey my beautiful people!!!!! Today I have a first impression review on the new Covergirl truBlend liquid foundation and truBlend fixstick concealer.

OK so let me start by giving you some facts about these products...

lets start with the foundation .....

OK so the new truBlend  foundation is a light to medium coverage, so this means you will not be getting the benefits of a full coverage foundation, you may still have little imperfections that you may not like to show through. This formula is not that much different from the original, I read the ingredients and they do have some changes, but nothing dramatic to really change the formula. Something really different is the packaging, this packaging is more appealing than the last one. Other facts, it comes in 21 new shades ranging from light, medium, and deep. Each of them are divided into 7 shades for each color range, I think that's awesome!.
For each bottle you get 30ml(1fl oz liq.), and it come with a pump. A pump is way much better and its more sanitary.




Without Flash
OK so my thoughts about this product is that its OK. I really didn't think this foundation did a lot for me, when I tried it on it didn't look flawless. To me it seemed more like a tinted moisturizer rather than a foundation. I know its not supposed to cover everything well to a perfection but I did hope for it to at least give me some sort of coverage. I used 3 full pumps of foundation on my face, on camera it seem like it evened out but when I took pictures you could still see a lot of my smaller imperfections, that's what I was hoping it would at least cover but it didn't.








With Flash











As you can see in the picture without flash it looks OK, my face looks matte, which is a plus. 
Now the picture with flash, that picture really disappointed me because you could really see what I had going on my face, and that's no bueno!. My face does look a little shiny but I have to admit I didn't set my foundation with a setting powder. Maybe it would of still looked matte. So OK for 3 full pumps of foundation the only thing I should of been able to see were my 3 really pigmented acne scars and that's it... but nope u can see everything.  With social media now in days people take a lot of pictures and especially selfies,  with a foundation like this I really would not want to take any pictures at all.

 All In all I really didn't like this foundation. I would recommend this to anyone just wanting to cover redness or to even out skin tone, but not to someone with bigger problems than that.







Now lets talk about the concealer....

I believe that their concealer is way much better.... its smooth, it doesn't dry your skin, and is highly pigmented! It really doesn't crease that much... when I did my video I didn't add a setting powder and it did just fine...it did crease a little bit but like I said I didn't use a setting powder plus my lights tend to be super hot....

All in all I did like this concealer a lot, and a highly recommend this if you are looking for a cheaper alternative

I think all in all this foundation will be good for people with no skin imperfections. If you have redness around the nose or mouth area it will definitely even out your skin tone , most likely you will have a flawless finish.


OK you guys I hope you found this helpful and i also hope that you are having a wonderful day. Know that you guys are beautiful and more wonderful than you can even imagine!

love you guys a lot take care and stay positive

Beauty sleep




Hey my lovely makeup addicts I have some advice for you today about sleep so take some notes...so you always hear everyone say you need your "Beauty Sleep" in order to not have bags under your eyes and to look younger pretty much, but in reality you need sleep for so much more and ill explain some of the reasons......

1. Skin cells repair!  While we sleep our skin cells repair meaning we make new skin cells to replace the old ones.

2. No more dark circles!  When we have lack of sleep our blood vessels dilate and that makes our famous look of dark circles, and yes we can fix that with some powerful friendly concealer but we also need sleep for other reasons too.... 

3. Hormonal imbalances, if we don't get enough sleep our hormones go crazy. Hormones is like our skin, as we sleep our body balances which will prevent us from being cranky in the morning, mad, and or depressed... so start sleeping girls and boys because makeup can't cover those mood swings we tend to get when we don't sleep....

4. Brain farts! Not sleeping makes our brains work very slowly it causes us to have brain farts and a lot of them...lol.. our brains starts with not paying any attention, it take all our alertness, concentration, reasoning, and problem solving. Imagine how bad we will do our makeup.... oh man .....
5.Health issues! Not getting enough sleep can also give you health problems like heart disease, heart attack, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes and so much more including death, not sleeping causes so many problems and its scary to think what can happen.
So you see my beautiful makeup addicts we need our beauty sleep not just to look good from the outside but also from the inside:-) we all need 7-8 hours of sleep in order to look and function good, just don't sleep too much because the same things could happen as not getting enough sleep sad but true:-( ...
