I gotta hand it to Target for keeping things fresh, and I don’t just mean in the produce aisle (ba-dum-bum cha!). They’re always trying new things and partnering with new designers and lines, like the limited-edition products and regional boutique brands showcased in The Shops at Target.
There’s Boston’s Polka Dog Bakery (biscuits and bones for good dogs, good dogs!), Connecticut’s Privet House (vintage, bohemian-chic curiosities, antiques and home decor), San Francisco’s The Candy Store (sweet treats in glass jars), Miami’s The Webster (home of Miami’s passion for très chic fashion) and Aspen’s luxurious Cos Bar (where Aspen flirts with fake lashes).
The Cos Bar at Target collection features affordable, limited-edition body care products, bath accessories, beauty tools, manicure essentials and cosmetic bags — all for under $20 each.
Haven’t been able to see the Cos Bar collection in person yet? Well, maybe we can take care of that now. 🙂
Enter now (it only takes a comment and/or tweet), and you could be one of 10 lucky ladies or gents to win a selection of Cos Bar at Target products valued at $22.
- One (1) package of False Eyelashes ($9)
- One (1) Pair of Tweezers in Green ($4)
- One (1) Body Butter in Orange Citrus ($6)
- One (1) Mini Nail Polish in Purple ($3)
- There are two ways to enter, and you can do both of them for two chances to win. First, you can enter by leaving a comment at the bottom of this post, a comment about anything at all, like, are you down with cosplay? What’s the game plan for tonight? When was the last time you went to a drugstore specifically to buy makeup? Do you prefer body butters or body lotions? What’s your favorite drugstore makeup/beauty brand? — you get the idea.
- Second, you can enter by following me on Twitter @karenmbb and retweeting (RT) the following message:

I bought the PF felt tip lash booster last week at CVS.
bruna louise says
cool lashes! =D
Nikki says
I prefer body butters and oils to lotion – my body has very dry skin, unlike the oil well that is my face!

Hey! I went to CVS to grab some chips (cravings!) but a coupon printed out for $3 off $10, might go back for nail polish lol.
mn says
Hope you are having a great day.

Girls night this weekend! Dressing up in Rockabilly style, playing games, and going out to eat!

Perks of working at a winery = free wine on a friday night!

i just had my graduation commencement ceremony today!
Lily says
We have a huge anime convention in our city every spring and even though I don’t personally Cosplay I love seeing everyone dress up in their costumes!

I’ve no experience using false lashes. I wonder if their popularity will make volumizing mascara redundant in the future.
Vanessa says
My sister graduates from High School on Tuesday. So weird, she grew up so fast! I cant handle it hehe 😀
Quinctia says
I love seeing what cosplay people come up with!
I think my favorite DS brand is a tie between Physician’s Formula and Milani. PF has a lot of great powders, and Milani does great lippies and eye pencils.
Heather says
I’ve never tried cosplay myself, but I love seeing how people put together their own costumes 🙂
blkrox says
Sometimes it seems like the ONLY reason I go to the drugstore is to buy makeup, LoL

I love seeing new drugstore brands pop up. It’s nice to have an affordable and well-performing alternative to the high-end brands. I’ve been super surprised with Revlon lately and how well their products perform. Maybe Cos Bar is another one?!

One of my best friends asked me to be a brides maid last night, so excited! 🙂

I bought the cos bar blueberry face wipes. Mmmmmm, smells soooo good!
Sunita Magar says
Truth be told, I was never interested in doing cosplay. :/ But, I totally dig the hair colors! PINK! BLUE! PLATINUM BLONDE! ;D (Because I have boring black hair which I have never dyed before for fear of damaging it) Maybe, I will get a wig in one of these colors one day. 🙂
Also, I am a makeup newbie. If only I could get my hands on this kit to play around with…
Tina says
Our gameplan for tonight is to take our two kids to the beach for the evening. There’s an awesome boardwalk there with tons of rides and games to play. We’ll get you’re typical boardwalk food like funnel cake or ice cream and just make it a fun family night.

Enjoy your evening.
Avery says
I bought a nail file from this line and then accidentally threw it away! Very sad.
Mary says
Cosplay is one of my favorite things to do! There’s nothing more fun than completely absorbing the personality of another character, especially one that’s really a fan-favorite. My go-to cosplay is a female Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7. I choose to make the character feminine to make it more unique, and it’s such fun seeing people’s reaction to their favorite character.
Andrea says
hi Karen and Tabs! I just moved to LA last month and it’s super hot. I’ve become way too addicted to MAC’s Fix +!

I love Physicians Formula, Milani and Revlon :)!

jane says
I really want to try the new Revlon chubby sticks.
Madelynn says
Cosplay is kinda odd. But I do love renaissance faires.
Danielle says
Cosplay can be cool, but it can also be those weird 300 pound guys in tights who haven’t showered in a week. Yes, I have been to ComicCon.
Tania says
I love body butters over lotions. My current favorite and has been for a while is Yes to Carrots brand from target. Love the texture and smell of it.
Janelle says
I’m always down for dressing up in costume! If I have an awesome costume planned, I would definitely wear it. 🙂
Xochil says
I love body butters, they work better on my dry patches than lotion.
Erica K says
imma have to get me some of those lashes! i also want to try their cleansing wipes, saw them on their website with their awesome leopard design
Bonnie says
I don’t usually go to the drugstore for the express purpose of buying cosmetics, but I sure do love looking (and sometimes buying!) while I’m there.
Liz G. says
I’ve been to Aspen twice and visited the Cos Bar each time. It is a great store so I was really excited to hear about the mini-line at Target.
Liz says
I listen to my skin when it comes to choosing between body butter and body lotion. If it’s on the dryer side it gets butter, and if it only needs a little help it gets lotion.
Janet says
Ohhhh, what a cool giveaway! I’ve been wanting to play with falsies lately. This is perfectly up my alley! Thanks, Karen! 😀
Lili says
I like lotion a little better than body butter

Wow…great giveaway…thank you.

This prize pack is a good way to start an awesome girl’s night in.
Tierra says
I also go to the drugstore for a MU fix quite often! We don’t have a Sephora in my town. Maybe that is a good thing though…at least for my wallet!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Liz says
I gotta say after purchasing a few high end mascaras, I just love Jordana mascara at Walgreens and really don’t need to look further.
Crystal says
Body butters > Body lotions IMO !
Nina says
currently waiting for the NBA finals to start.
Jane says
I went to cvs the other day so that i can get sunscreen to wear under my makeup 😀
Elaine says
I’ll have to go to target now to check these out in person.
Jennifer says
I go to the drugstore at least twice a week just to buy makeup or nail polish. My brand of choice is Revlon but I will try just about any brand if it catches my eye!
Yao says
Hope you had a good weekend!
Prima says
Is it bad that i only hope to win because those green tweezers are super cute?!?
SANDY says
I go to the drugstore just to see what is new in makeup- so many great items and fun to shop when you can afford and no one is pushing a makeover on you
Lori says
Game plan for tonight is to watch Game 3 of the NBA finals between OKC and Miami and hope we win. (I’m from OKC). THUNDER UP!
Carolyn N. says
Recently discovered body butters! They’re amazing!
Larie says
I rarely go to a drugstore just to buy makeup, but I always make my way to the beauty aisle just to “see what’s new!” I think my favorite drugstore brand is Milani, or maybe Revlon 😉
maggie mae says
oh I really want to try their nail polish
Lynn says
I haven’t bought drugstore beauty products, besides nail polish, for a few year i’m stuck on Sephora…I hope i win that…i really want to make VIB for next year. I got my eyes set on tarte make up right now.

Rena says
So sad my daughter didn’t call her Dad on Father’s Day, and her Dad pays some of her bills while she works a low paying job. On the bright side, she’s working.
Haven’t tried anything from the Cos Ba,r yet!

Body butter but I feel like it doesn’t last as long!
