| dance4joy's Full Review: Cover Girl Professional Eye Enhancers 4-Kit Shadow... |
Covergirl has come through again with the four-shade "Professional Eye Enhancers" compact!
How many hours have you spent searching through stores, trying... unsuccessfully... to find several perfectly coordinating colors of eye shadow, all in similar textures (for even application when used together) and of high quality? If you are like me... too many to count! For me this is one of the most frustrating things about buying eye shadow... I like to use several different shades of a similar color all at once for highlighting, etc. -- and far too often, I'm left frustrated and with nothing!
Not any longer! Cover Girls has come through again, and made it easy for me! My favorite is "Grapevine" -- however, I have had it a while and I don't believe it is currently available. But there is a nice one called "Grey Groove" which I definitely intend to purchase soon; the grays and pewters which look best on me can be particularly difficult to find, especially in the more pastel colors. It also comes in:
Cool Colors
Rhythm & Blues
Warm Colors
Spice Islands
Country Woods
Tranquil Browns
Candlelit Dreams
Neutral Colors
Watercolors
Taffies
I admit I am a bit disappointed at the lack of cool colors... especially since Grapevine is apparently no longer available. (At least I am unable to find it, and their website does not list it.)
This eye shadow is long-lasting and stays on rather well. This is especially important to me since I live in a subtropical climate where makeup has a tendency to "melt" off during the day.
Another nice thing about Cover Girl makeup is that their website (www.covergirl.com) does provide a lot of information regarding their products, including application tips. I especially like having these "hints" available as to how to use their makeup more effectively.
As usual, Cover Girl also comes through with a reasonable price. And they don't sacrifice quality... they are "inexpensive" -- never "cheap."
"Professional Eye Enhancers" comes in a nice, sturdy compact with a see-through lid. The foam applicator holds together well, and has a foam tip on each end, which helps enable you to keep the colors separate on the applicator.
I'm happy to recommend this product to anyone who needs a high quality makeup at a reasonable price... doesn't that include you??? :-)
Thanks, Cover Girl... you definitely came through for me once again!
