Bargain Cosmetics

Last week I had one of those weeks where I kept having little accidents - hence the 8 inch scratch up my left resulting from an incident with a barbed wire fence. Pre menopausal or pre menstrual? Not sure, could be both. Anyway I also managed to drop my virtually new bottle of MAC foundation all over the bathroom floor, having treated myself on a recent trip to Kirk's in Wellington.  As my self inflicted punishment I popped down to the Warehouse to pick up a cheap replacement, CoverGirl's Simply Ageless Foundation (the one advertised by Ellen Degeneres).  I have to say I am really surprised and impressed with this foundation - its very easy to apply with the latex sponge, gives great lasting coverage, and the colour (Creamy Natural) is one of the best I've used for my complexion.  I was even able to go to their website beforehand to match my MAC colour (NW20) with theirs. At the fraction of the price of MAC, this could become my new preferred foundation!
