Great Deals On CoverGirl Products At Your Local Kroger: What &30 Can Buy!

Thank you to Kroger and CoverGirl for sponsoring this review. While CoverGirl provided me with a $30 gift card to purchase CoverGirl products at Kroger stores, the opinions I've expressed here are solely my own, represent my honest viewpoint, and not that of CoverGirl, Kroger, or Proctor & Gamble. I am making no claims about the products, just expressing my thoughtful opinion. Clever Girls Collective supports Blog With Integrity. 

 

I love shopping at Kroger because they have such amazing deals going on each week. I am a very loyal Kroger shopper, which is why I was so very excited to be chosen for this campaign. Although I shop there every week, I don't spend much time on the make-up aisle. I'm not sure why. Maybe because I thought the prices would be higher than at a drugstore or they wouldn't have a very good selection. Who knows, but, when given a $30 gift card to shop for CoverGirl products, I couldn't wait to score some new make-up! I've used CoverGirl cosmetics since I was in middle school, so I love them and use them often.

I was very surprised at the great deals and left the store with a great selection of make-up to try out. I spent just over $30 and here's what I got:

CoverGirl Natureluxe Gloss Balm SPF 15 ($5.99) - This is a New product from CoverGirl, which is why I really wanted to try it. I chose the Clove color (280) and it's perfect for my complexion. Fortified with mango and shea butter, it really keeps my lips feeling moist and soft! Plus, the balm is very light-weight and sheer, giving a natural shine to your lips.

CoverGirl Cheekers Bronzer ($3.35) - Since I'm going to the beach soon and am pale as a ghost, I thought a nice bronzer would give my skin that sun-kissed look I love so much. Unlike other bronzers I've tried that make your skin look orange, CoverGirl Cheekers is makes the tan look very natural and blends very well. Plus, this little bronzer is very compact, so it can easily fit in your purse or clutch.

CoverGirl Classic Color Blush ($4.55) - I chose Soft Mink (590) as my blush color because I thought it would work well with my skin tone and it matched perfectly. I love the Classic Color Blush because you really get your money's worth. This blush lasts forever and it includes a mirror for on-the-go usage.

CoverGirl Exact Eyelights Eye-Brightening Eyeshadow ($6.39) - I was most excited about trying this eyeshadow because each pallet of colors is expertly designed to really bring out and highlight your eye color. My eyes are Hazel, so I choose the Majestic Hazels (715) Pallet. The set includes 4 different colors to apply and a brush, along with instructions on how to achieve the bright-eye look! I love, love this product! It really works and the colors are great when combined. The colors are more for the fall season, I think, and I can't wait to put my whole new fall look together.

CoverGirl SmokyShadowBlast ($6.39) - This eyeshadow contains two different creme colors to help you easily achieve the smoky eye look I love so much. I chose Tempest Blue (825), which has both a light shade and dark shade of blue. I followed the directions and it looked perfect for a night on the town! I'd never used creme eyeshadow before, but loved how easily it went on and mixed with the other color.

CoverGirl Professional Super Thick Lash Mascara ($4.24) - I'd never tried this Mascara before, but it was the cheapest mascara by CoverGirl and I have thin eyelashes, so I figured it was worth a try. Sure enough, it worked perfectly to give me length and made my lashes look fuller. I used my lash curler to make them nice and rounded. I purchased the Black Brown (310) color, which goes very well with the CG Exact Eyelights eyeshadow colors!

Total = $30.91

Can you believe I got all of that for just over $30? Just imagine how much more I could have saved with coupons. Combined with the $5/2 CG Natureluxe products in a recent newspaper, I could have gotten another lip gloss for $.99! With this coupon was another $1 off any CG product, too!

As you can tell, Kroger has some amazing values on their CoverGirl cosmetics. Leave a comment below telling me some of the great deals you've gotten at Kroger!

Poshling nuLOOM Rug Collection Sale This Week Only

I wrote a post about Poshling a few weeks ago and have fallen in love with this website!  What is Poshling? An upscale deals website dedicated to bringing in-the-know Moms premium products at amazing limited-time discounts. Poshling Members also have control over what products get featured by voting for which ones they'd like to see. I've voted for a few of my favorites, like See Kai Run and Mini Boden. I can't wait to cash in and save on some cute children's clothing and shoes!

Current Poshling Deals

After searching around the website today, I had to inform you of a new sale going on right now on children's rugs. I know how hard it can be to find the right accessories and decorations to match your child's room. When I saw the nuLOOM rug collections featured on Poshling, I was in heaven! There are three separate sections of rugs by nuLOOM:

• Adorable Nursery Carpets: Featuring nuLOOM's KinderLOOM rugs with several different themes and colors to match your decor. From Alphabet rugs to cars and the jungle to the circus, these rugs are absolutely adorable and can brighten any room! No doubt, children will love these wool rugs.

• Kids Decorative Carpets: Stylish nuLOOM rugs from the Cine and KinderLOOM collections to match your child's tastes and personality. You'll find more mature themes for children, such as Polka Dots, Swirls, Heart Prints and more! 

Polka From the Cine Collection

• Soft Shag Carpets: nuLOOM Flokati shag rugs are hand-woven from 100% New Zealand Wool. These rugs are not only stylish, but amazingly soft! Even in the pictures, you can tell just how fluffy and soft these carpets are.

These rugs are great for not only bedrooms and nurseries, but for playrooms and living rooms, too. The nuLOOM Cine collection is very durable and more stain resistant, which makes it great for a busy household. As I took a look at the prices, I found some rugs at over 60% off retail! Those are wonderful prices.

The nuLOOM sale ends on Saturday at 8pm, so don't delay! Now's the time to become a Poshling Member, receive a newsletter with sale updates, and make your own suggestions for future sales!

Kicking Off the Block Party Early- Poshling Review & $25 Giveaway

 Over the years and many shopping trips, I have become obsessed with children's boutique clothing. I love fashion and want my little ones to be stylish, too. I like dressing my boys in Mini Boden, Appaman, and See Kai Run shoes. Okay, I admit, It can be very expensive, but it doesn't have to be. With Poshling, Mom's can find luxury clothing at great prices!

My Thoughts

Every time I've logged into Poshling I've found some of my favorite brands and some other great finds I wish I'd known about earlier! Today I found an Appaman clothing (one of my favorites) and Heather Lehman nursingwear, all of which were discounted greatly. Later this week you can find cashmere sweaters and blankets from Amber Hagen and the adorably popular Morgan and Milo shoes. This is the type of deals website I've been dreaming about! It's selective, I have a say in what gets featured, and it's stylish.

Need another reason to give Poshling a try? Their $5 flat rate shipping! How many times have you been ripped off on shipping rates? I know I have. I make what I think is great purchase only for a $15-20 shipping charge to pop up at the end. It's ridiculous and makes me rethink my the purchase completely, but Poshling guarantees the flat rate of $5 for shipping and returns! That is very appealing for those of us on a budget!

You'll definitely want to stay tuned for future sales. With 2 stylish grads from Harvard Business School running the website, you can definitely expect great things from Poshling! I am crossing my fingers for a See Kai Run sale in the near future.
