Celebrating a #covermoment #Selfie with P&G COVERGIRL #PGmom + Giveaway
Trending
It took me a while before the hashtag #Selfie caught on. I don’t tend to follow trends so it wasn’t something on my radar to understand right away. But as a P&G mom when I seen the hashtag #covermoment I had an incline that it would follow the word COVERGIRL.
#covermoment | kəvərmōmənt
Noun: The moment one feels her most beautiful and empowered self and wants to share it with the world. A #covermoment celebrates the uniqueness in everyone – it showcases the moments in life when one feels most confident and authentic.
After meeting a true COVERGIRL P!NK a few months back I gathered the definition quickly.
That is me.
I will be honest to admit I join the two-thirds of Canadian women who were surveyed when I say that I am unhappy after seeing a #selfie I snap. Even when my COVERGIRL face is on I still feel silly. I personally think it is that I don’t have the right angle down yet, but maybe I find the whole #Selfie thing silly? When snapping a #selfie with someone else I feel less silly. Or is it my confidence? Oh no… Here is my #COVERMOMENT from today feeling silly and all.
New Line Up in Review.
COVERGIRL sent me a little surprise this week as a P&G mom I received some COVERGIRL products to sample. I must say I love how smooth the COVERGIRL Lipslicks Smoochies Sizzle Gloss slides on. I have never been a lip stick or gloss girl, but with age I am really enjoying gliding on a little color to perk up my confidence throughout my day.
My favorite new product that was sent would have to be COVERGIRL TruMagic Skin Perfector. There always seems to be a little shimmer on my nose, not the type of shimmer you want to see when you look in the mirror, but in keeping my routine simple I have never bothered to cover it up with think finishes. COVERGIRL TruMagic Skin Perfector is so thin and quick to apply giving you an amazing matte finish!

Watch your angles! That can make or break a good selfie.
I don’t like my picture being taken but if it is done I look a lot better with a big smile.
I have only done 1 selfie with my husband after getting my hair done…lol.
I don’t take selfies that often.
I’ve never liked photos of myself. Even as a kid, I’d do my best to hide or turn away.
I am not a fan of selfies. But I do take a lot with my son. Ive learned to just smile. One day I will look back on them and enjoy them!
I gave up trying to pose in evry picture long ago, now I just smile and it is what it is! Thats who I am take it or leave it 🙂 self confidence is way cooler than duck lips anyday!
I can’t stand pictures of myself – I am very unphotogenic!
Use the camera timer for your selfie so you can do it one handed. 🙂
I can honestly say that I have never taken a selfie – just haven’t felt a need.
I am not a fan of selfies for myself. I am not photogenic at all and have never liked having photos taken of me. I am usually the one in every photo with their eyes closed.
I feel like taking selfies after taking a lot of time for myself 🙂
I don’t have the inner confidence to post a selfie…if I had Covergirl products I would be much braver!
OMG! I can’t share a selfie. I might try later today though. Got a new “Canadian” hat!
Start with a shower…don’t forget to get dressed afterwards. Color is king..perk up your lips with some gloss. Do not attempt sexy face. 😉
my selfies always involve my children…helps distract from me!
Im not a selfie taker, but I wear lipstick and mascara.
I don’t like selfies i like liner lipstick and blush
I like to play up my eyes. The pics that I like of me are the ones when I’m not expecting ready for the camera.
I don’t like selfies. I do like to wear blush and lipstick
I’m bad at selfies, I prefer to have others take the pics
I do not like taking pics of myself,,I am never happy with them,. I would like some tips!
When I take selfies, I take lots of shots, to make sure I get the right look. Some of them turn out so awful, so at least I have options. Generally I take them when I feel like I am having a good hair day.
When I do take a “selfie” (not often), I do so in whilst looking into a mirror – bit of a head tilt, eyes not directly looking in the camera, and this usually works best for me.
Cheers.
i don’t like taking ‘selfies’ I just don’t understand them
I don’t do selfies…..to add a bit of colour to your lips just add a bit of lip gloss.
I don’t like selfies, but I feel that drinking water is one of the best make up tips!
I don’t do selfie’s. I never like how they look! So I don’t really have any tips to share.
I dont take selfies and I usual put my kids in it lol
I love the natural look, but with a little mascara and lipgloss!!
When taking a selfie be natural. It brings out your best side and looks real
I just got a smartphone 31 days ago so I am totally new to the selfie thing .. I had to google the word when I saw it months ago. Taking it took me a while. Mind you if you want lessons on how to take the perfect picture of your thumb, ceiling or floor drop me a line.
After maybe 200 attempts I am comfortable enough to take them and at 54 what you see is what you get. I admit to putting on blush, mascara and lip gloss all from my cover girl bag. . So my tip is this.
The more self confidence you have the better your selfie will look. its really selfieconfidence. The camera sees it.
Take your time. Move around your house or location and find that perfect lighting. when you do move around the camera to capture it. lift your camera up to look up and in for a distinctive look or straight on for a full shot . TILT YOUR HEAD to the left or right don’t ask me why but light refracts off you better and you will look amazing. a little blush and gloss is all you need . put on your fav shirt the one you look great in because if you feel great your picture will show it. snap off several we all have a good side. I have an overlapping front tooth . very noticable on the left not on the right. play with it and you will look beautiful.. we are all beautiful 15 or 50. good luck hope this helps

#selfie and #covermoment
i love covergirl products. there lipstick is great and i really love there mascara
I can only take a selfie with my baby. Then she’s the focus!
I am horrible at taking selfies, I always end up cutting off half my face or looking incredibly awkward. My only tip is to make sure you take it from the right angle…although I dunno what the right angle is!! #worstselfies ever!
I usually feel ridiculous taking a selfie… so I just do funny ones, ie, huge duck lips or silly faces.
My tip is go easy on the cover-up. I have seen one too many girls who have way too much on and its so unattractive.
I only take selfies when I’m on vacation and want to catch a picture of me at a certain historic site.
I tend to only take them with other people!
I also feel silly when take selfies. I think I take around 30 pictures before I am mildly satisfied with one of them. I wish I had more self esteem and confidence to not care. No tip other than keep taking them until you find a good one 🙂
I have never taken a selfie before. I don’t know if I’m brave enough!
I don’t wear makeup very often so I don’t have any great tips! Love to turn to my fave blogs for tips!
Selfie tip if you are taking a selfie in the mirror check out what is behind you before you take it.
I have taken selfies but never post them for anyone to see. I just don’t feel they are of good quality and don’t represent how I really look. I think lighting has an important part to play in getting a good selfie.
My tip is to apply lotion everyday
Here is a selfie tip! Hold the camera or phone above you so your shot is a downward angle. Eliminates any possibility of having the dreaded double chin!! Also makes your eyes look bigger because you are looking up!
I don’t really have any tips, I’m no expert, but I think natural is better. Don’t wear too much makeup!
I find tilting your head to the right or left results in a good selfie.
I also feel silly taking selfies sometimes and I like to wear my over sized sunglasses to cover my face lol
