P&G Beauty Essentials

July 11, 2015 by Lisa 18 Comments

Sponsored PostP&G  provided with a Walmart gift card to purchase my favorite Olay & CoverGirl beauty essentials.

As a busy working mom, I still want to look and feel my best. I’ve learned that you don’t need to always shop at high end department stores for quality beauty products. They can be found at your local Walmart. And two of my favorite beauty brands are: Olay and CoverGirl. Walmart helps me save on my favorite P&G beauty essentials that keep me looking and feeling fabulous.

My P&G Beauty Essentials Shopping List

Olay Ultra Moisture Beauty Bars

Olay Beauty Bars are made with shea butter and have a creamy moisturizing lather. And it’s gentle enough that I can use it for my face. I love stepping out of the shower and my skin feels clean, soft and smooth.

Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream

I’m turning 40 in September, I can’t play around with my skin care routine. So I’m all about moisturizing my skin. And Olay’s Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream is excellent. It’s reduced the appearance of lines while boosting hydration and brightness. I use it nightly and when I apply, I don’t forget my neck. Don’t ignore your neck, ladies – it needs moisture too!

CoverGirl CG Smoothers Pressed Powder

It’s summer in New York and with the heat and humidity, I couldn’t imagine using anything heavy on my face. But CG Smoothers Pressed Powder is a light powder that creates a smooth complexion. And it’s great for mid day touch ups – especially if you’re like me and have an oily t-zone.

CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara

I love mascara. Even on days when I don’t wear makeup, I still put on a little bit of mascara. And CoverGirl’s LashBlast is my new favorite. It’s light and feels natural. Plus it’s a patented volume-boosting hypoallergenic mascara.

CoverGirl Perfect Point Plus Eyeliner pencil

My favorite facial feature, are my eyes. I am all about my eyes. They say they are the window to a woman’s soul. My eyes are definitely that and I like to play them up as much as possible. And a little bit of eyeliner can go such a long way. CoverGirl’s Perfect Point Plus Eyeliner just glides right on. And it includes smudge tip, giving you control and versatility.

I want you to be able to purchase your favorite P&G Beauty Essentials at Walmart too. And I’m excited give away a $25 gift card to Walmart…enter now to win!

I’ve had these skates for 5 years and I finally I’ve had these skates for 5 years and I finally got to skate in them for real. “Why do my skates feel funny?” I wondered. I assumed it was because I’m not used to roller skates. So I spent the first 15 minutes skating with my skates on the wrong feet 🙄😐🤦🏻‍♀️ but once I fixed them - skating was a little bit easier. 🤣🤣
When the student becomes the teacher… I got to w When the student becomes the teacher… I got to workout with one of my (favorite) former students this morning! From the moment I met her 2 years ago, I knew she was a force to be reckoned with. In the classroom, she is enthusiastic, bright, confident and strong. But at the gym she’s next level! Mel really pushed me today and I know I’ll feel it tomorrow. It wasn’t easy keeping up with this 19 year old. I held my own up until she said 20 minutes on the stair master after our work out. I lasted 5 minutes and then did 15 on the elliptical. 🫠🫠 And obviously we needed a quick locker room photo shoot. 🤣 Also…I don’t know if it’s the angle or the lighting but I can’t believe my arms/back look like that! 😳🥹

Started reading Carmen and Grace by @melissacossaq Started reading Carmen and Grace by @melissacossaquino on the 6 train. By page 5, I had to close the book and take a minute to absorb the words on the page. Ok ok ok, I also may have begun tearing up a bit. I love when a book makes me feel. There are times when I come across a book, and the words are exactly what I need at that precise moment. This is that book, this is the time. “The only way out for you is through.” 🤍

Yes. It does. But what feels even better is that I feel strong. Stronger than I’ve ever felt in my entire life. Thanks for an amazing class @freelikeoj_allday & @tiabrooks_0106 for always offering to take a picture.

Earlier this week, I was unpacking my spring/summe Earlier this week, I was unpacking my spring/summer clothes. I found 3 dresses that I’ve had forever - probably 15 years. They were probably only worn once. I held on to them, even though I couldn’t fit into them. Because I knew one day, I would fit into them again. Over the last 2 years, I’ve lost some weight but they still didn’t fit last summer. When I tried them on this week, they fit! I haven’t been able to fit into these dresses in more than a decade. And so yesterday I put on the blue dress. I didn’t go anywhere spectacular. I wasn’t on a date. I visited a friend in the neighborhood, went to a meeting and then White Castle (don’t judge me). When I first bought this dress and when it fit, I held on to it - waiting for an occasion. I refuse to do that. I’m not waiting for a man to take me out, or a party or an event. If I want to wear something, I will wear it. I am the special occasion. I am the event. I am worth getting dressed up for. 

Also - I realize that holding on to clothing for 15 years hoping it will fit again is probably not normal. But oh well. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤣
