#ProductAlert @COVERGIRL COVERGIRL CGsmoothers BBcream with SPF Highly Recommended by @ManhattanPeachy #WhomYouKnow

It has been said by the greatest minds of business that simplicity is genius: to that end we are pleased to present our kickoff coverage of Cover Girl with the brilliant CGSmoothers BBcream with SPF!  COVERGIRL cg smoothers BB cream has a sheer tint of color to help even out tone and hydrate skin. SPF 15 provides UVA/UVB protection from everyday sun exposure, while the lightweight formula glides on for barely-there coverage that’s naturally radiant and smooth.  It really is easy, breezy and beautiful and for those that have seen Peachy in person recently, she has been personally wearing it.

It goes without saying that you need SPF when you go outside in August in New York!  We aren't doctors; however, common sense dictates that the sweltering heat that is unique to Manhattan because of the immense amount of concrete and vertical density containing glass buildings with reflective rays from the sun requires that you protect your face.  What could be more important than that?  And, if you don't live in Manhattan, we imagine you don't want to get wrinkles before you have to either!

Our intelligent, detail-oriented panel of varying levels of tan (of course you get at least a little tan if you don't live under a rock and we are out and about!) tried a spectrum of shades suitable for our fair Irish to Black Irish (you know, the Spanish Armada which is how Peachy and Rufino are probably Galacian cousins...stay tuned for Rufino updates in the future) skin and the coverage is terrific.  CGsmoothers is aptly named as we universally found it applied to our skin with tremendous blending capability.  You never want to look like you're wearing makeup: it is completely natural.  This multi-action BB Cream boasts 10 skin friendly benefits: 

1. Natural looking radiance

2. Sheer color

3. All day hydration

4. Improves skin elasticity

5. Broad spectrum SPF 15

6. Blends effortlessly

7. Lightweight

8. Helps skin feel smooth

9. Covers to help instantly improve skin’s appearance

10. Won’t clog pores

COVERGIRL CGsmoothers BBcream contains a unique combination of ingredients – humectants, occlusives and emollients – that make up nearly half of the formula to provide prolonged and immediate skin hydration benefits.

Humectants readily attract water from an area of higher concentration by ionically bonding water molecules, moving moisture to actively improve the condition of skin. Occlusives in the formula specifically impede water loss by forming a barrier at the skin surface and increasing water content by blocking evaporation.  

We are also thrilled to see they are bunny approved on their website: cruelty free by cruelty free international.
