The Cover Girl brand will always be nostalgic for me. I remember buying a black eyeshadow from the brand back in the Laguna Beach days and trying to mimic the makeup style of the girls on the show. I remember my first foundation purchase and the first blush that I ever tried. All Cover Girl. At that time, the brand was accessible and affordable. (Though the prices at the drugstore have increased significantly in more recent years.) Perhaps that is the reason my weakness for Cover Girl remains. It is nostalgic, but the brand also has some great products. Recently, it was the Squishy Glaze in the shade Raspberry Twist that called to me. This is described as a Lip Butter Balm and it comes in several different shades. Keep reading for a full review.
The Squishy Glaze line from Cover Girl is described as a tinted glaze "bursting with irresistibly squishy flavor." It is supposed to provide nine hours of hydration and lips that look fuller. According to the brand, "the buttery formula, infused with essential fatty acids, hyaluronic acid, shea butter, and plant extract, provides rich nourishment for soft healthier-looking lips." There are five tinted shades available in this line of products. Though the Fresh Plum and Peach Gummies shades were tempting, it is hard for me to resist anything raspberry, so Raspberry Twist seemed to be the ideal shade to try from the line.
This product comes in a fairly standard squeeze tube, but it has a curved applicator that makes application better. The product goes on smoothly and mess free, which is always a benefit. I love the matte pink colour that was chosen and the fact that this is a cruelty product. It is also clean and vegan. As for the product itself, the Squishy Glaze is impressive. I love that this delivers lots of shine, but the formula does not feel sticky or tacky. The colour is subtle, but still provides a nice wash of that Raspberry Twist shade. What I love most? The smell. This has a sweet and pleasant scent just makes the world seem more beautiful. The spring and summer months will certainly include a lot of Raspberry Twist. Though there are other colours in this line that are extremely tempting, my goal is to be more mindful about the amount of cosmetics that I am purchasing, so one shade it is.

Are there any drugstore makeup brands that feel nostalgic to you? Have you tried the Squishy Glaze from Cover Girl?
