I grocery shop at Kroger on a regular basis, but I’ll be the first to admit that I do not typically browse the make-up aisles there. I have always assumed they didn’t have a big selection, that it was more expensive than other stores, etc. So when I was challenged by CoverGirl (via Clever Girls Collective), I jumped at the chance. But I did kind of think to myself that with only $30, I was going to talk out the door with 2 things.
I set out one Sunday morning, gift card in hand, to see what I could get for my money. I was more than pleasantly surprised by the prices. Who knew? I had a great time picking things out and trying my best get as many goodies to test out as I could. Here is my haul:
CoverGirl NatureLuxe ($9.99): First of all, I love that this is not thick like that traditional liquid foundations. I tend to stay away from liquid foundation for that reason or I them with lotion to thin them out a bit. But I saw this and liked the container (I’m all about being honest here), so I went for it. And you know what? I LOVED it. It’s not cakey at all and just makes me look like me, but better.
CoverGirl TruBlend Minerals Pressed Powder ($8.19): I know you are supposed to use this with the TruBlend foundation, but I find that it works great alone or with the NatureLuxe. I really like that this isn’t heavy or thick either. Used lightly, it’s a good to way to control the shine. For the price, you really can’t beat it.
CoverGirl Classic Color Blush ($4.55): I was expecting this to be your standard everyday blush. I mean, for $4.55, how great could it be? I was totally not expecting the fabulous shimmer that came with it. I was blown away.
CoverGirl Last Blast Fusion ($7.34): Love it! I’ll admit it, I am an expensive mascara girl, but I think this may now be my go to mascara. I love the length it gives me and the applicator is great. And I love that Kroger displays the different types of applicators right on the shelf.
I’ll admit it, I went over the $30 limit. I spent $30.07 :). Can you believe I got all that for only $30? I was blown away and am so thankful for this opportunity. I am all for saving money and Kroger and CoverGirl sure fit right in!
What would you get if you had $30 to spend on CoverGirl products at Kroger? Do tell!
