Beauty Board MBP (Most Beautiful Product): COVERGIRL Exact Eyelights Collection













Eyelights It's a given ... we love eye makeup.

Give us eyeshadow, give us eyeliner, give us mascara ... we want it.  

And COVERGIRL did!  They sent the Beauty Board the complete Exact Eyelights Collection: the eyeshadow quad, the liner, the mascara ... AND they sent us the colours customized to suit each of the Beauty Boarder's eye colours.  (Luckily, we had a mix of blue-eyed, brown-eyed, hazel-eyed and green-eyed!)

When the ladies arrives at the event, the first thing we gave them was the set.  They immediately took their seats, opened (read: RIPPED apart; TORE through; DESTROYED carefully) the packaging, and started applying - on themselves or on each other!  What fun.

The great thing about this product is that its foolproof - all the shades are complimentary of one another and the combinations of colours and looks are endless.

So user-friendly and easy to use, we even had brown-eyed beauties wanting the colours for green or blue eyes as well as blue-eyed stunners curious about the colours for hazel eyes!

Definitely a fun favourite for the night!

Reviews:

LOVE the eyeshadow.  The colours are fantastic and they blend really well. LOVE THIS LINE!  I also love that the eyeshadows come with a full size brush!– Dara F.

Love the idea of contrast and complimentary colour packages.  Also love the fact that the colours are easy to use form day to night! - Meredith S.

Very neutral colours that I would use for everyday wear.  I would wear the eyeliner - nice green colour. Good to know that the mascara is contact lens friendly! – Paula V..

Will most liekly use the mascara for blue eyes, even though mine are brown!  I like that it is user friendly with the eye colour designations but that seems to stifle any beauty creativity! – Denise W.

[Eye Brightening Liner] When testing it was nice and smooth!  – Anita M..

I use this already and LOVE it.  The mascara really brightens my eyes and does not clump.  Much better than other more expensive brands - true to its claim! – Allison C.

Love that it caters to eye colour.  It really helps. - Kathy C.

I really like the colour combination!  I can't wait to get home and play. - Ayla F.

Subtle highlighting really accentuates eye colour!  – Anny S.

Eyeliner is smooth; doesn't smudge.  Eyeshadow shades look nice! – Monica D.

Easy to apply colour. – Joy K.

Loved the colours for green eyes.  Eyeliner went on smooth.  Eyeshadow made my eye colour pop! – Lindsay R.

Love the instructions provided on the back of the shadow palette.  Very excited to try the colour - it looks great, also wonderful that its suitable for contact lens wearers! - Natasha B.

The eyeshadows look very natural, but you can also play up your eyes and add a more dramatic look with the darkest shade.  The brush is very good for something that comes with the package! - Alysia I.

Love the mascara! Great consistency, non-clumping.  Copper eyeshadow is lovely! - Lisa C.

Love the sparkles in the mascara, the make my eyelashes standout.  Eyeshadow looks very nice and blends well! - Shyanna S.

I really love the mascara line.  Really makes my eyes sparkle.  The eyeshadow for brown eyes is great.  They blend well. - Lori S.

I'm excited for my colours.  It's smart to have pre-packaged colurs by eye colour for people like me! I like the diagram on the back of the package - helpful! - Alice L.

I have blue eyes and I wouldn't normally think of using blue eyeshadow, but the demos gave me some new ideas. I'm looking forward to trying it at home when I can play! - Clara J.

Mascara is nice - separates the lashes well. - Leigh C.

The eyeliner is easy to put on.  It glides on the lashline which is awesome. - Maureen P.

  • February 28, 2010 – The whole no-makeup makeup look. I started with clean skin as I am currently experimenting with Olay's Pro-X skincare line. I blended on rms beauty un-cover concealer in 22 only over red areas and blemishes. I then applied rms beauty's living luminizer on the highest part of my cheekbones and underneath the brow bone. My cheeks were naturally flushed this day, so I didn't bother with blush. I lined my eyes with Shu Uemura's Eye Drawing Pencil in ME Black and applied a bit of Burt's Bees lip balm. Done-zo.

my brides are wearing ...

  • … MAC Mineralize Skinfinishes Bronzy, pinky, or pinky-bronzy, they love this stuff. It give a soft but noticeable glow over the cheeks. I dust it on high on the cheekbones and over a matte blush. Skinfinishes seem to mesh with the skin rather than sit on top of it so they look seamless. I used to use Warmed and Lightly Flushed, but they were limited edition. But I never worry about running out. MAC has a standard set and always introduce limited edition colours, so I make sure to pick up one that is slightly bronzed, one that is super pink, and another one that is pearly.

did you know ...

  • … washing your hair daily does more harm than good? Giving your hair a good shampoo daily may leave you with squeaky clean hair, but squeaky clean doesn't mean healthy. Washing your hair daily with shampoo and conditioner strips your hair of all the natural oils it needs to protect, moisturize and keep the hair shaft healthy. Understandably, it may be hard to make the switch from daily two 2 or 3 times a week (which is recommended). Start by shampooing your hair every other day instead and rinse with just water in between. Experiment with "day after" hairstyles and accessories such as hairbands or barettes and ponytails and braids. You'll notice a vast improvement in the condition and texture of your hair once you break the daily habit.

have you tried ...

  • ... Noir Cosmetics? Neither have I ... yet! Just last month this Canadian-based brand was kind enough to send to me a selection of their black eyeliners and shadows. I cannot wait to test them out and report back to you. What I already like about this line is the fact that they focus on two great beauty products: black liner and black mascara. Their brand consists ONLY of black liners in several forms: pencil, kohl, liquid, gel, etc. Then they have one eyeshadow palette and one mascara to finish the look. How smart is that? Anyway, this month, I'll be Rockstar Queen as I wear heavily lined eyes daily! Be sure to check back for my reviews.

  • ... Herbal Essences Tousle Me Softly Mousse and Spray Gel. I recently got a bad haircut. B-A-D! So while I'm growing it out, I'm wearing my hair naturally wavy (which is super funny because I always thought I had super straight hair). Straight out of the shower, I remove all excess water from my hair. Rather than combing through, I actually let it stay a bit of a hot mess while I scrunch in a golf ball amount of Tousle Me Softly Mousse. I twist, I smush, I make a mess. I let it air-dry. Before I head out the door, I spritz a bit of the spray gel on. This gives me a "yes I slept in" look that kinda looks alright.

and i just bought ...

  • ... rms beauty un-cover concealer in 22. I die. I absolutely love the texture of this concealer. It provides enough coverage for me to wear alone and it lasts all day. I rarely need to touch up and if I do, it's due to my own vanity and not because the product has slipped and slid away. Firm in the pot, it turns creamy once I warm it up a bit an layer it on over my flaws. The perfect colour for my yellow undertone too. It's officially a must have!
