Can CoverGirl and Olay Make Me Beeeeautiful???

New product alert!  I was provided two new makeup products from Bzz Agent** recently and I’ve been giving them the ol’ college try.  I admit I was excited to try the products because first, they were a combination of CoverGirl and Olay and I’m a fan of both products.  Also, they are designed to “de-puff” your eyes and give you a “facelift effect”.  YES!  I’m getting to that age where I could use a little de-puffing and facelift effect in my life.

I received the two products and the color is actually pretty good on me.  That’s probably my favorite part. If I’m to be honest here, the de-puffing eye concealer does not go on well at all… it didn’t “rub in” and just sort of sits on your skin while you rub it around.  It’s weird.  I don’t like it.  I also didn’t notice any changes in my puffiness… not that I’m PARTICULARLY puffy, but still.   The Facelift Effect Firming Makeup goes on much nicer, but I found it to be quiet heavy or thick feeling.  I know I’m not supposed to touch my face all day, but I find myself touching my face and it feels weird when I’m wearing this, not soft like normal.

I want to note that I don’t dislike the firming makeup, but I also don’t see any firming going on.  I have lines around my eyes and mouth and there is zero change when I use the makeup.  I even tried doing half of my face to kind of do a test and I could see no difference in the lines on my face.

Overall, I do not recommend the De-puffer, sorry CoverGirl/Olay, this one wasn’t a home run.  On the other hand, the firming make-up is not bad for people who like wearing face make-up.  It does give good coverage, but be prepared for it to be a heavier make up, versus a light one.

** Reminder for new visitors, I belong to BzzAgent.  Bzz Agent sends me products that I get to try for free or for a greatly reduced price (in the case of this make up, it was free!)  Then I tell you about the products and what I think.  Honestly, most of the time I like the products, but every once in a while I get one like this that just doesn't do it for me.  but, i want to make sure that everyone knows I was given these products at no cost to me.

MOUNTAIN MIKE's - Just Eat There!!!!

I am OBSESSED with Mountain Mike’s pizza.   I ran across them by accident, tried the amazing pizza and then found out it’s a chain!  Now, I count myself lucky that there is one near my job so I can take a long lunch and scarf down on their pizza and salad buffet (who am I kidding… I totally skip the salad part) with a soft drink for $7.99!  DEAL!

Anyway, the pizza is perfect.  It’s not too thick, not too thin, crispy outside, but soft inside the crust and the toppings are top notch quality.  I personally feel that the Garlic Tuscan pizza is the freaking BEST PIZZA EVER!  So good.  Just try it.

So, the point here is that if you have a Mountain Mike’s near you and you haven’t tried it, you’re in for a treat.  I also recommend checking in on Yelp because the shop near me gives a 10% discount when you check in on Yelp (not on the lunch special, but for a whole pizza!)
