Beauty For Breakfast Pt. 14

Product: COVERGIRL + Olay Concealer Balm

Been Using It For: Less than one month

How I Found It: The reason why you haven’t seen a “Beauty for Breakfast” post in quite some time is mainly because when I find something I stick with it forever. There are some bloggers who try out new products frequently, but that just seems…expensive. Birchbox, I still love you! For Birchbox, I would change my ways. I had a moment the other day when I was on my way to work. Looking into my mirror, I noticed that I had done a pretty poor job of trying to cover up a blemish, but I was more than halfway to work and wasn’t going to turn back around to go home again. On a whim, I decided to pop in to the nearest Walgreens and within minutes found myself glazing over the COVERGIRL + Olay Concealer Balm. First off, every girl knows that buying drugstore beauty products is a gamble. You can’t try it out which is the biggest issue and when it comes to skin and making sure you get the shade correctly, a drugstore product is a huge risk! I was in a rush though and it was my only option so I ended up buying it. Luckily for me, it resulted positively, but never again. What I love about this product is that not only did I guess my shade correctly (that’s just a plus!) but it also doubles as both a cover-up and an under eye stick. For years, I have always had issues covering up the dark circles underneath my eyes no matter how much rest I try to give myself and this stick has managed to mask them pretty well!

Beauty For Breakfast Pt. 5

Product: CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Blasting Mascara

Been Using It For: 4 years

How Did I Find It?: I believe I decided on my own that I wanted to try this product after reading recommendations for it in a few magazines. There was a period of time though, however, when I also used Dior ‘Diorshow’ Mascara. Both are great. One is a little bit more expensive than the other, but it’s been tricky for me. I guess I’m not exactly ever sure what I am looking for in a mascara. For one, it should do what it says – make my eyelashes appear longer and it shouldn’t be clumpy. At the same time, both brands get rave reviews so now I’d like to ask you guys what kind you use and what you could recommend to me.
