Every new year should begin with a new repertoire of beauty products. At least ideally. Not sure how practical that is, but it sounds good, right! I actually started mine with testing out some new yumminess by the all American brand, Covergirl. I remember wearing the powder when I was in High School-- I think more because I really liked the way it smelled vs. a true need.
When I got to try a few products from the new 2012 lineup, now repp'd by the sassy and sexy Sofia Vergara, I went for the kill in channeling my inner accent. The one I've been practicing for years. While I applied the 24-hour mascara and Blast FlipStick lip color, I spoke with thick accent and told myself how fabulous it was to try makeup before it was even out in the market. I was in candy land. The mascara, like most I use did in fact last all day and night... good! I hate reapplying and admittedly, it's my one must have on when I walk out my door. And gloss too, but the duo lip color was lovely. The test color I tried worked perfectly with the hues in my fall/winter wardrobe. I can't wait to get my hands on all the other colors! I'm particularly lusting over the color mix of red and gold. Ooh wee. Speaks to me, I tell you.
For the price point, you can't go wrong. Stick it in your clutch for night's out and worry not if a girlfriend accidentally walks away with yours... cuz yeah, she'll like that much.
I'm tickled a Latina, full of curves and phenom looks is gracing the ad campaigns of Covergirl. She just needs to leave room for us up and coming types!
The 2012 collection is available now in stores and includes:
o Tone Rehab 2-in-1 Foundation
o Blast FlipStick LipColor
o LashBlast 24 Hour Mascara
o LineBlast 24 Hour Eyeliner
Check out what the lovely Sofia and other reps, like Taylor Swift are up to by visiting Covergirls' Facebook Page.
In the meantime, tell me: What's your favorite lip color?

Sofia Vergara IS AMAZING!!
Yes she is! That top and final shot of hers for the campaign is stunning! So old hollywood glam! Love it!
esa mujer si es linda. no uso mascara pero los pinta labios estan bonitos.
The post holiday doldrums always gets me down. Freshening up your look with new makeup is a great way to rev up after the exhaustion of prepping for and picking up after the holidays. Thanks Bren!
I love Sofia! And I love your make up. Great article - Cover Girl products take me back. And I use all brands of cosmetics.
I tend to use a lot of warm rose colors for my lips or fun lipgloss.
Sofia Vergara rocks!!! I love her! I've used Cover girl blush in the past. On my lips I either go nude or dragon red. Always extremes! LOL
Love that lipstick on you!
Thanks chicas! I totally should have mentioned that the lip color is really smooth and applies nicely. Lasted about 4 hours... pretty good even after serious espresso drinking! Can't wait to try other colors! THis particular combo looks look with dark colored clothes... and the pink should def. go on top! xoxo.
Sofia is such a gorgeous woman! Wow. She looks amazing in her makeup. Who knew covergirl did that!?! And the lipcolor looks good on you. I like mauves and pinks for myself.
I buy Cover Girl. I love it.
It has not made me look like Sofia, but, eh. It's OK! LOL
