CoverGirl Outlast Nail Polish || $4.79 – I LOVE CoverGirl’s Outlast Nail Polish is one of the best true drugstore nail polishes. It has great opaque color in just one coat, a second coat isn’t needed but is just the icing on the cake. I’ve used several different shades and had no problems with staining or chipping super early.
CoverGirl Outlast 3-in-1 Foundation || $7.83 – I initially avoided this foundation because I was SURE that the hype that surrounded it was purely that, hype. However, I needed a foundation that was closer to my skin shade for a tutorial and I decided to just jump and grab this foundation. I’m so GLAD that I did! Besides my MAC foundation this is my favorite foundation in my collection.
CoverGirl Flamed Out Mascara || $5.19 – This is another product that I picked up for the tutorial that I was unsure of at first and again I was glad that I took the plunge and got it. This mascara gives volume, length, and curl throughout the entire lash but more specificallly in the outer corner for a “Flamed Out” look.
CoverGirl Clump Crusher Mascara || $5.51 – Another CoverGirl product that got a lot of hype was the Clump Crusher mascara and it lives up to it’s hype. This mascara not only gives you gorgeous lashes but, for me, it’s also a “Saving” mascara. Whenever I have another mascara that’s not giving me the length and/or volume I want or is clumping I plop a coat of this over the top and BAM gorgeous lashes again!
CoverGirl Flamed Out Shadow Pencil || $5.19 – The CoverGirl Flamed Out Shadow Penchil’s are good to use for numerous things. They work really well as a base before putting on powder eye shadows and they work extremely well as eyeliners too. They are also easily blendable so you can mix shades as well.
CoverGirl & Olay Simply Ageless Concealer || $8.15 – The CoverGirl & Olay Concealer is creamy, hydrating, and gives excellent covereage. Also, it doesn’t break down like I’ve seen other concealers do, especially when wearing with mascara.

Look at all that beauty! I love the nail polish. Cover Girl has been around a long long time and I’m glad to see them still thriving.

I’m a Mary Kay and MAC girl, but it have to say I love Cover Girl’s Olay concealer! Your description of it is spot on. It’s great. I’ll have to try out the polishes. One coat opaqueness is something I look for in a polish for sure!

Cover Girl IS the mascara for me. It’s so amazingly affordable and performs better on my lashes than expensive brands!

This post just reminded me that I need to get some new mascara as well as other makeup supplies the next time I go out. I usually never go anywhere without my makeup on.

Joanna Sormunen
Great make-up and really economic! Thank you for the tips, Cassie. The only make-up I really like is thick eyeliner pencils. The one you have here looks really good.
Jennifer @TheRebelChick
I do love me some Cover Girl make up! I do use a few dept store brands, but most of my make up, and my daughter’s, are from the drug store. Cover Girl is a great brand and so affordable!
Liz @ A Nut in a Nutshell
What you said about the clump crusher makes me know I need that. I feel what you’re saying about having a mascara that can save other mascaras. MUST have it.
