Covergirl: Ready, Set, Gorgeous Concealer

I was looking for a new concealer to use since the one I use before is a foundation-concealer stick and I wanted to have something separated, if you know what I mean? I wanted that stick and another concealer so I can conceal up those red spots, zits and dark circles.

I stumbled upon Covergirl cosmetics and saw that Katy Perry's advertising the Ready, Set, Gorgeous line. The saleslady showed a swatch on my arm so I can look for the correct shade for my face. I finally found one in the shade 'Medium' (there were numbers on the box but I threw it away so now I don't remember the exact 'number' shade, my bad.) I only remember buying the Medium shade.

When I purchased it, I read a couple of reviews online and saw that some liked it and some didn't. They say that it doesn't settle in well or it doesn't blend well and cover up your dark circles properly – I agree that it doesn't cover dark circles properly but I love how it blends well and hey, at least it covers up even just a little bit of your dark circles. As for the redness, it doesn cover it up. But here's one little tip for those who say that it doesn't blend well: apply the concealer on the spots you wish to apply it on, leave it to settle in for a minute or so then blend it with a beauty blender or like what I use, my ring finger. 

Here's how the product looks like:

As for the consistency, I like it since it's creamy and once it settles in the skin, it blends so well. 

The applicator is a small spongy-like brush that glides on well on the skin. 

I don't only use this concealer for my face but I use two more which is the Wet 'n Wild and my foundation-concealer stick. I use those two for extra coverage on my undereyes or spots and redness around the nose. 

If your undereyes' dark circles are not that evident, I suggest you use this concealer since my undereye circls are not that dark so I use this concealer along with the two products to follow just so I can have that extra coverage under my eyes. 

What about you, guys? What concealer do you like to put on your spots, dark circles and redness? Comment down below and reccommend other concealers if you want!

My Dogs

Looking back through old posts, I realized that I never made one of my dogs I don't think it's necessary to make one but hey, I love dogs so I've decided to make this post.

I have two Beagles (Copper & Ava).

Ever since I was a child I wanted to have a beagle or a great dane but having a Great Dane takes a LOT of responsibility and buying one costs more than my lunch money (obviously). 

One day my dad and I were driving around our village and we passed by this house that had a banner up saying "BEAGLE PUPPIES FOR SALE" so I told my dad in a very excited way that we should probably check it out and ask how much one puppy is. 

Days have passed and my dad and I walked up to our neighbor's house to check out the Beagle pups and this one certain puppy has caught my eye. He has a tiny scar on his head and had these huge eyes and cute little legs. I was in awe and was completely in love when I first saw this puppy. I practically begged my dad to buy this because it was one of my dream dogs and who wouldn't love to have their dream dog, right? So the next day we got him and my grandad decided to name him 'Copper' which was taken from the movie 'The Fox and The Hound' (I love that movie too). Until this day, Copper's still well and healthy and may I add, 'fat' and lazy. He is one of the laziest dogs I have ever had but he may know a trick or two cause I taught him how to. Copper still has his tiny scar on his head which makes him look like a living plush toy. 

This was Copper when I first got him and carried him home. He was such a skinnt and tiny little boy back then. Photo was taken by my dad last August 2012.

Her's Copper now, he winks!

Of course if you can't get enough of Beagles, you have this urge to purchase another one to keep your other dog company. 

My dad has this friend that owns a lot of dogs and the good news is that he was selling Beagles pups too! So my dad, along with my sisters drive to his house to pick up our new Beagle puppy which was named Ava. We didn't pick her name since she was already named by my dad's friend and we were ok with Ava so we stuck to that name. Ava has this cute 'baby girl' face that will make your heart melt. Oh and her head tilts are the cutest! Her eyes have this sweet shape and they have a wonderful shade of brown with a hint of grey to it. 

Ava at 3 months, look at that cutie!

Sorry for the low quality. This is Ava recently. After 2 years, she has grown intona beautiful doggie

As of now, Copper and Ava are still completely healthy and Copper's still the couch potato he is and Ava is quite actually the opposite. Ava is the kind if dog you want to have if you're looking for a disciplined but VERY playful dog. Copper's the kind to chill with you or the kind of dog you can patiently teach tricks since he gets it at once unlike Ava who only knows how to sit haha. 

Also, my dogs took some selfies on my phone:

Copper doesn't seem to know the act of how the 'selfie' works.

Looking at this photo I always have this thought in my head that Ava might say like "gotta get my good angle, yep that's it."

How about you guys? Do you have any dogs or pets? If you have a dog, comment down which breed is it and how his/her personality is, I would love to hear from other fellow dog moms/dads!
