My thoughts....

Originally, this blog was started as a diary a couple years ago to pass time at my extremely pathetic job. I left for quite a long time and just recently realized it still existed. Since I have some hard things going on I decided to get back into it, so to speak. I have many passions in life, but one that has always been a constant since I was three years old, sitting on the bathroom counter watching my mom put on her face, has been makeup. I know this isn't really unique and there are so many blogs out there dedicated to this subject, but since I do love it, I am going to make it a larger part of my blog. Not the only part, but a big part. I hope all my info is helpful and I am by no means a professional, I just love makeup and know a lot about it. Enjoy!

Reviews of yet more makeup....story of my life...LOL...

I recently purchased a couple of mascaras and thought I would tell you how they worked for me....I bought the Lash Stiletto, from Maybelline I believe, and I have to say...not impressed at all. Very expensive too. I have really long eyelashes that don't hold a curl worth a shit and this mascara made my eyelashes stick straight. I think if your eyelashes were really short it would work great but if you have eyelashes like me, skip it. I also bought Cover Girl Lash Blast Luxe, which has shimmer in it...by far my favorite mascara I have ever tried thus far. Works really well. The brush is weird because it's plastic and really big but I highly recomend it. Works really great. I have also purchased Exact Eyelights for hazel eyes by Cover Girl in Black Gold. Allegedly, this mascara has sparklies in it that are suppossed to enhance your eye color and what not...I don't see it. My eyes look the same. My eyelashes look like I am wearing mascara and that's about the only difference, lol. I really don't like the brush either. It's small, hard plastic, and it isn't very comfortable to use when applying. I might buy it again but I doubt it. It is waterproof though, which is nice for the pool or what not, but it's hard as hell to get off. Even with eye makeup remover. Like I said though, if you live in a humid climate, swim a lot, or are going to the beach or vacation it's really good in that aspect. Anyways, hope all who read this liked it and found it helpful....
