Isn't Dream Matte Mousse by Maybelline? Or is there a CoverGirl one too? Am I just thinking the wrong thing?
I've always seen CoverGirl eye products but for some reason, never gave them a shot (and I love DS products!). This thread is making me want to try some!
I love the CG bronzer that I have..I think it's called Tanfastic.

I've had mixed results with the shadows, but I love two of the triple shadows-- shimmering sands and the pink one. They're a little sheer but the darkest colors are pretty pigmented and the light ones are gorgeous highlights.

And I really, absolutely love the Trushine lipsticks. They range from quite sheer to really pigmented, and they last a pretty long time. They're a gel-ish texture, like clinique butter shine and avon glazewear lpsticks, and probably a bit like mac slimshines...they aren't shimmery but they feel really nice on, they look natural, and they stay quite well. And I think the shades are really flattering - peach shine is a great coral-ish color, lavender is a pretty light pink with purple undertones, and fire red is a gorgeous sheer red. I highly recommend, they've become one of my absolute favorite lipsticks.

I like the colored eyelights mascaras too. They aren't super strong color, but they have some shimmer and are a nice twist on basic black. The formula's pretty good too.

I dunno about the color enhancing my eye color, but it has really subtle sparkles in it I like.

I bought Black Sapphire today actually! It's true that it's not volumizing at all, but it's lengthening, doesn't weigh down the lases and is actually a dark denim blue with a silver sheen to it. I think it's pretty, but I need volume so will probably wear it over LashBlast

I just got the TruBlend foundation in Ivory, and it's actually light enough for my skintone! Thank you so much Covergirl for making something that doesn't make me look orange!

I bought the tropical quad and I was disappointed that I shelled out $5 for it..the colors don't show up for beans unless you use water or mixing medium

I just realized what I don't like about LashBlast.. it's not black enough!!!! I LOVE the way it goes on - it makes my lashes so full. But it's almost a charcoal colour. Is there any other mascara out there that has a similar effect but is more black?

[Amber*Christine]

I LOOOVE CG Lashblast mascara, makes my lashes long as falsies, and CG TruShine lipstick in "nude shine" and "valentine shine". Soo creamy and lovely. I'm going to buy some of their neutral eyeshadows next to try 'em out.

Before I started to take issue with animal testing, I wore a number of Cover Girl products. From that time in my life, one eyeshadow trio has remained in my collection (the rest went to a younger cousin or to the garbage) - Cover Girl Eye Enhancers in Golden Sunset 115. This trio is the perfect dupe for (from darkest to lightest) Bronze, Amber Lights and Skintone 2 (from Notoriety), Skintone 2 being similar to a number of other things in MAC's perm line.

Though I now opt for something else over Proctor and Gamble (Cover Girl) due to animal testing issues, I have to say that this trio applies beautifully and blends like a dream.

Has anyone tried their new version of Lash Blast but with a thinner brush/wand...I had seen it in the Allure magazine..the brush is a lot thinner and it does look promising..I want to try it..I surely didn't or don't like the CG Lash Blast. So maybe this will be much better.

I find that the Lashblast applies just as well as DiorShow does if you take care of your lashes well and wash it off at th end of the day. All of it. I use the Very Black shade and it's pretty much a true black, so I'm really happy with it. Another product I really like is the Amazemint glosses. Not the best for pigmentation, but they're great for every day or over lipsticks to add a wet look.

The classic clean liquid foundations are pretty good, but mostly would recommend for people that don't have loads of zits. Not that there is anything wrong with those who do. ^_~ I like their shimmery nude shades of eyeshadow and think they're good for every day just to add a little color and shape to your eyes. Most of the crazy colors came out sheer and were a little bit disappointing. I would probably buy the nude shadows if I ran out of the ones I'm using. Not before then, though. =P
