Taylor Swift's Covergirl Lashes are Not for Real - Sad Face

 Covergirl's Nature Luxe Mousse mascara gives 2x the volume?  

As some who has tried the mascara, I wonder why Covergirl made THAT claim on this product? I can tell you it does not give 2x the volume.  In fact, it's the opposite, it's a great mascara for those who like a no-makeup makeup-look. But you can't really sell THAT truth in a mascara advertisement can you?

The National Advertising Division of the Council of Better Business Bureaus says, the post-production enhancement on Taylor's lashes, gives consumers an inaccurate impression of the product's abilities.

Even though Proctor and Gamble puts a disclaimer on these ads, a lie is still a lie.  Remember those Covergirl Lash Blast ads where Drew Barrymore's lashes were **enhanced with falsies?  A few years too late, but at least these types of ads are starting to get pulled.

So Taylor's advertisements and commercials went bye-bye.  Can't say I'm disappointed, those ads were of the super cheese variety.  Taylor Swift twirling around in swathes of flowing fabric?  No thanks.
