Joan’s Beauty Pick: Cover Girl Queen Collection
Last week I went makeup shopping with a friend who was looking for new makeup products but at a budget friendly price. I recommended Cover Girl Queen Collection; I’ve tried a few products before and was pleased with them (mainly lipsticks and liners).

I love the Natural Hue Mineral Bronzer, it gave me a great winter faux glow… and it doesn’t get any better than that. Coverage lasted all day and it didn’t feel heavy at all.
