So I am a member of an awesome website: BzzAgent; in which you are sent invitations to campaigns based on how much you have participated in the past and your interests.. and they send you free stuff! All you have to do in exchange is "buzz" about it.. AKA introduce the product to some of your friends or write a review or at least have a conversation about it. Some of my friends are also bzzagents. We get so excited when we get the products :) Aaand back on track.. One of these campaigns was the covergirl blast collection. I signed up for it and chose to recieve the smoky shadow blast in "silver sky" and the shineblast in "heat". So I got the products a few days later and I was so excited to try them. I opened them up and they looked pretty much as I had expected. I tried to shadowblast first. Let's just say it was an extreme dissapointment. Very sheer and greasy. To achieve this look (on Drew) with just this product as shadow you would basically have to use the whole stick. It also broke as soon as my daughter picked it up and tried using it. (she loves doing her makeup and is 1 and a half.. she didn't know to be gentle with it but it definitely was very flimsy.) This totally reminded me of the Mary-Kate&Ashley shadow sticks that I used to get from wal-mart and use as a shadow base. So I guess it might possible be useful for that; but I doubt it because it is so greasy it will probably just slide off. Not worth the money no matter how inexpensive. The lipgloss I feel doesn't even deserve a whole paragraph. I had hardly any pigment whatsoever and smelled like plastic wicked bad. It had huge chunks of glitter in it that I would only be seen wearing if this was 1995 and I was 14. I never used them again. End of story.
PS: the next review I do is going to be a positive one :)
