[@cherob2182]

I LOVED the Noxzema scent. I miss it. I enjoy Cover Girl products, the old scent was comforting to me. Took me back to simpler, kinder days.

[@bluevictory1010]

Same, I miss that scent so much!

[@Tii12319]

I like that Covergirl is cruelty free as well.

[@catchinghorses]

Yes!!

[@elizabethnelson2287]

Absolutely~cruelty free is a total deal breaker👍🌟Cheers to cruelty free brands!🐭🐰

[@beama]

Thanks for taking the extra time to update us on how the foundation lasted throughout the day.

[@emilynoel83]

happy to do it! Setting alarms on my phone as a reminder helps a lot!

[@Elquds]

Ah yes, that Noxzema scent! When I see CG products, that’s what I remember most.

[@doonagoding6146]

Takes me back to 1972….

[@4fron4]

Memories from high school in the 80s of the noxzema smell of the touch up powder in the brown compact. I associate that smell with acne.

[@tiawarren5403]

I remember that smell! Part of my 80's youth...lol

[@skiptomyluludarling8519]

I remember when my aunt hit pan on her compact. She’d give it to me. One of my earliest scent memories of that Cover Girl. Anytime I get a whiff of that. Reminds me of her. Love this look today. And that lip color is fabulous.

[@HerGreyness]

I loved that old scent. This was my first foundation lol - bought with my own cash. Cover Girl also updated their eyeshadows- I was ready to grab a YSL shadow quad and I went into CVS and saw the CG new lipsticks, and some eyeshadows. Voila! I saw a trio of beige/cream/taupe beige shadows which is perfect!!❤

[@radicaldreamer18]

That glass bottle is iconic!!! My mom used it for 40+ years!!! And I started in 8th grade. Cool new package but sad to say goodbye to the old days ❤😢

[@sweetra07]

But it wasn’t definitely hard to get the product out.

[@sherrifrederick620]

Thank you so much for doing videos on affordable makeup products! So many other channels focus on high end products only and not everyone can afford them. Your channel is so refreshing,

[@raeana_mari]

I love the classic Covergirl scent the original foundation and pressed powder were the first I used. I also loved the aquasmooth in middle school

[@leeannbaxter]

I love seeing Covergirl make a comeback, this is the brand that started it all for me! Also enjoy affordable makeup options ❤ thanks for your thorough review

[@jennifermolina4396]

I LOVE the new L'oreal liquid blush. It's lasts all day on me. I am obsessed with Dewy Worth It. So pretty.

[@thefarsideofforty4012]

Is anyone else getting tired of "radiant" foundations? I really don't want to be shiny anymore.

[@kreepykulture]

Same here, I just set everything very heavily lol. I quite like a dewy foundation that gets set with a matte powder because it gives you a velvet-y finish!

[@debrabarycki8819]

I am! I’m just not into that super glowey look anymore

[@queenbunnyfoofoo6112]

Yes! As an oily girl, I don't need more shine😂!

[@monicapatton1405]

Yes, I was done with that a year or two ago. I want my skin to look healthy not wet 😂

[@LindsayD228]

Oily skin here, I don’t need any more glow! 😩

[@hbunnie]

💕 Love that CG is cruelty free🐇

[@mariadentino6811]

For regular nail polish, the Dazzle Dry system is all I use. It dries in 5 min and lasts 7-14 days, even longer on the toes. I now paint my fingers and toes regularly and love that!

[@chericoffman6321]

This video is so needful today. The world has gone mad. I can come here and decompress.

[@emilynoel83]

yes I feel you

[@candicemorrison304]

I can't seem to leave a comment...so I'm leaving a piggy back comment 😂🤷🏼‍♀️ I love that this started out as a regular makeup room video, then turned more vlog style! 😘🥰❤️

[@valhin2751]

I couldn't agree with you more.

[@chanelyrodriguez2002]

This channel is where I come when feeling stressed, pressed, and depressed. Been here for years ❤

[@jessicazhong9083]

This was my first foundation and long time holy grail. I'm absolutely stoked they didn't raise the price. I loved watching as always!

[@kellysmith5105]

What a check-in, mom! ❤You’re the best. The foundation looked great on you and you put it through a day! ❤❤❤

[@emilynoel83]

haha thanks!! :D

[@SueHawkins6816]

Thank you for the thorough review. My favorite CG product is their blush/contour/highlight trio. I think its called Suddenly Cheekbones? I hope it never goes away

[@kimleein09]

CG clean was one of my first foundations. I have such core memory of the smell. ❤

[@gingergirl8797]

I my teens, a lifetime ago, I used Cover Girl occasionally when I had a blemish. Always loved the scent of Noxema and it always dried up any blemish in a day.

[@krista436]

I really like this foundation. It wears really well on me, I don’t set it. Definitely a good summer formula for me.

[@gladysgarrity5721]

Thanks for sharing not a bad foundation for a small price See you soon ❤

[@hayleymunn24]

Not sure if you've tried them Emily but the CoverGirl trublend high pigment blush in sweet seduction is a GORGEOUS fall blush. Always love your thoroughness, hope you and your family are well 💕

[@callmesg_16]

I've been more of a fan of lightweight foundations and tinted moisturizers lately since I usually apply a "heavy" amount of concealer, so this foundation looks like it's right up my alley. Thank you for the honest review, Emily! I love seeing and hearing your kids in the background, too. ❤

[@PodieM18]

Thanks for this, you are looking beautiful lovely (and busy ) lady. I really liked the old Covergirl Clean makeup, this looks like it's a good step up. All the other items look gorgeous as well, I really really want to try that new L'Oreal Lumi Blush 🤗🥰😊

[@BibleBeauty]

This video was so fun to watch! And as soon as you mentioned that Noxema smell, I was a teenager again! ❤

[@pameehanson3866]

My sister has worn this foundation since I could remember. I shared your video with her and going to try it as well, couldn’t stand the smell before 😮. Thanks for wearing all day ❤

[@pamelawolf313]

Awwwww CG Smoothers, that’s still one of my all time favs. Idk what it is about that but I love it still. ❤🎉

[@patricialomden8519]

This has been my favorite foundation for years.

[@bobbieg3220]

I have this foundation and I love it. I works very well on my 67yr old face.

[@pamelawolf313]

Oh wow I LOVE Rimmel clean and free concealer. My Walmart doesn’t carry Rimmell anymore though. I wish they’d make a comeback as a brand.

[@kate7621]

My walmart doesn't carry rimmel anymore either!!

[@nancynewman1356]

I love your videos. I have never worn Cover Girl but they do seem to be trying to get with the times. Plus, the price is reasonable. Thank you for a fabulous review. Wow, Bubba is so tall. Can’t help but see him as a future football player like his Daddy. God bless and Happy October🧡

[@firsttimepanner]

Hey Emily! I was wondering (if you have access to the store) if you could do a review on Sally’s Beauty Supply makeup. I didn’t realize they had so many brands! Love you! ❤

[@emilynoel83]

thank you for this reminder about Sally's! I haven't been to my local store in quite some time. Now I want to see what's new there! :D Love you!

[@firsttimepanner]

@@emilynoel83 Thanks so much!

[@missrachelk81]

That’s a great suggestion! When my girls had dance recitals it was a great one stop for hairpins, strong hairspray and red lipstick

[@firsttimepanner]

@@missrachelk81 Thanks! It really is!

[@angelaolive147]

​@emilynoel83 I was just in our Sally's and I was so disappointed. They didn't have hardly any makeup. The salesperson was saying that a lot is online only. I was disappointed but a lot of store are like that now because it's easier to go online.

[@xochitlpv8849]

Hi Em! For regular polish I love Gelous as a base and top coat with either China Glaze or Orly nail polish and quick dry top coat Seche Vite. It's kind of a lot of steps but the Gelous males it last a long time and the Seche Vite dries super fast so you don't have to wait forever. Always do thin coats!

[@kreepykulture]

I would have never ever given this a try on my own, but after seeing how much it made your skin glow I am sold! Especially for the price you can’t beat it!!

[@CleverClarkCreations]

Thanks for the full day wear! Go Mom!

[@siamesekrazy]

Same, feel sorry for something if I don't use something for a while, lol!

[@dhayden1981]

FINALLY! My prayers have been answered. Do you know how long it has been since I've waited for this to happen? A very long time. I use to use this foundation in the bottles back when I was a teenager. I'm 43 now. The bottle had a blue cap on it. There was no applicator of any kind so I had to use a q-tip or simply make a huge mess all over my hands. I also had to use cotton balls for face application. I rarely wear foundation now. If I do, I use it to conceal my deep hollow dark under eye circles. Otherwise, i simply just use concealer. Anyways, CoverG, was my holy grail many moons ago. I loved their stuff. Its been awhile since I've used their products, tho. I prayed for this over and over again. So I'm super stoked about this. Thanks for sharing this. I am so happy now.

[@PWatts-ff2fd]

I looked for the links for the skin care products you mentioned using specifically the lighter VaniCream Moisturizer and the sunscreen, but couldn't find them here in the description. I was looking forward to purchasing these using your links to benefit you financially! 😢 I went to a day in the life VLOG from 7 months ago to purchase your skin care products using your links.

[@sharon1894]

Love the check-ins throughout the day! Thank you for all the hard work!

[@deann3621]

This looks great on you!! You have such lovely skin! Love the eye makeup look as well. Will be trying this one! ❤

[@melissayoung7451]

I just remember the overwhelming scent of Noxema. I like this version

[@monicapatton1405]

[@delacarter6427]

Sadly the stopped selling this brand in the U.K. I think it's sister brand is maxfactor. Love the video,God bless🤗

[@emilynoel83]

Wish we still had Max Factor over here! :)

[@651LYS]

@@emilynoel83 My hunch as to why Max Factor is t sold much in the US anymore is that the heir to the company turned out to be a convicted abuser of terrible crimes. Very scary and creepy.

[@MsSussiluss]

Thank you for a great video and the update on makeup during the day.

[@rebeccapotter3413]

I like that new foundation it looks good in my opinion.

[@lynettewalsh4918]

Hi Emily. I remember the Noxzema scent. Love the Physician Formula lip product. Question: did you straighten your hair? Looks straighter than usual. I think it looks good on you.

[@mermilani4525]

I used the original as a teenager and young adult. I loved the noxema scent. I would still buy it now and then for nostalgia. Is it gone? I also feel bad if I'm neglecting makeup 😂

[@jenniferfoley8273]

I have been waiting for this!

[@MagsNLily]

I always appreciate your profound thought but this one esp bc as much as everyone else loves fall, i prefer spring bc fall comes before winter and living in canada, its too cold and theres snow. I still love fall colours so you helped me to reframe my seasonal depression

[@gailschaefer-guajardo6731]

Very interesting and informative and a great wear test done. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@nathaliehofsink5020]

Emily, I have the new version of foundation too; this is probably not a popular opinion but I think I prefer the OLD formula (scent and all! Lol) it always gives a beautiful finish. I feel like the new one doesn’t cover much. Do love the “new” Covergirl though - it’s having its moment. ❤

[@rickiebee6011]

Oh wow, i used to buy that in high school! (We're just about the same age) 😊😊

[@Pinupred21]

I love Covergirl, so happy they are cruelty free now 🐰 ❤ Essie gel couture with the matching top coat is the only regular polish that lasts 7 days for me.

[@catchinghorses]

I hated the smell and package design, so I will definitely be trying this!!😃

I totally need to get a new foundation, will definitely give this a try! ❤

[@Beautybytracilei]

Nail polish: I really like Essie Gel Couture, both the polish and the top coat.

[@Alice-fr1ef]

After seeing all of the check- ins this is a foundation I would consider for sure. I liked the look and lip color was right on point. I already have that eyeshadow palette and I like it too. I think the CoverGirl Clean Foundation is a good buy. Thank you so much Emily and we love you too.🥰❤💗🤎💕💜💛🙏🌹🥀🌺💐

[@theglamourqueen24]

I do wish that the brands send sample size foundations or concealers if they are guessing the shades with a voucher for a full size. That way, there is no waste happening. But thats just me.

[@kathyjackson3751]

Lovely foundation on you. I’ve been getting a lot of use out of the L’Oréal liquid blushes and the worth it lip liner and lipstick. Thanks!

[@stygia2002]

I’m so upset! I loved the noxema scent…it was so nostalgic and the only foundation that I can use on my textured mature face. It didn’t cake or settle into my pores and I could control coverage. I’m not thinking I’m going to be happy with the new formula. 😢

[@ceciliasanchez5901]

Hi Emily! Lovely video. Question; do you remember the brand Cargo Cosmetics? What ever happened to them? 😳

[@LeeDee5]

If it doesn’t have that Noxema scent I might try it. I could never use any of those CG powders and foundations because the scent was so bad to me.

[@vickiweber4718]

I would always get the fragrance free version if it was available.

[@Snickelfritz_]

No smell, and the powders don't have it now. I guess whatever made that smell, caused my face to burn. I can use these new products on ly oily, sensitive skin. Love them, and the new eyeshadow sticks are amazing.

[@lindamakowski7387]

Nail polish: Essie first, OPI second. Favorite to use as base and top coat: Sally Hansen Hard as Nails.

[@paulinej24]

Great review Emily, thank you!

[@vickiweber4718]

Thank you for this! I wore Clean during my high school and college years since it was affordable. I was wondering if this version was just as good. Since my face is combo-oily, the only way I can make ANY foundation last on me is a gripping primer. I'm wondering how good the NYX Face Glue is.

[@thruErinseyes]

I was wondering if they had changed it. I actually remember loving that foundation. In fact my bff in grade school always wore it and and the powder and I thought it was too much coverage for me. lol. I used it for a while after high school. This seems like a little less coverage??? Am I right about that feeling? Mind you I haven’t tried it yet.

Hi Ms. Emily! LOVE LOVE the haircut! I am so very sad & a little pissed that they dropped the old formula with no warning like that. It is the only foundation I have used for more than 35 years that NEVER gave me an issue. My question is would you be able to do a side by side comparison between the old formula in the glass jar & the new one from his video? Do the colors between these formulas match too or are they different? I didn't see these bottles in the sale area or anything at my local stores. Just *poof* gone like they never existed. I was just giving covergirl kudos for having this product line for so long & not doing what all the other brands have done in pandering to the attention deficit population & changing every 2 years. Thank you in advance.
