L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Shocking Extensions Mascara

 

Love, love, love

 

I am an fake eyelash junkie. I love wearing falsies and I usually prefer them over mascara. I may prefer them over mascara because I had never found a mascara that works how I would like it.

Finally I found a mascara I love. At first I was alarmed by the brush, some sides of the brush are completely flat and others have only small plastic nubs as bristles. When I opened this tube I figured it would not work well because of the brush, but indeed I think that is what makes it work so well. I am amazed at the added length that this mascara creates. It doesn't crumble or flake off.  Costs about $9 at CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Target etc.

5 Stars!

 

 

 

 

 

E.L.F. Studio Makeup Mist & Set-- Meh!

Not Impressed

 

 

I had read a few good reviews about this product so I wanted to give it a try. But after trying it with just powder, just liquid foundation and a combo of both, I received the same result: the misting created a look of I just got sprayed in the face and half my makeup is now running off.

 

Wouldn't use again. Costs $3 at Target.

L'Oreal Paris Pencil Perfect Self Sharpening Eyeliner

Pros:
 -Beautiful color
 -Glides on easy (eyeliner stays soft)
-Self sharpening- LOVE this. No mess!
-Does bug my eyes or contacts. I sometimes have a problem with mascara and eyeliner doing this and making them burn.....

Cons:
-Says smudge proof...I don't totally agree with that but it also depends on if you have any makeup on prior to using it.
-Costs about $8-$10... but keep your eye out for it in old packaging at the dollar tree. That's where I scored it.
-Doesn't stay on any better than a cheaper brand in my case.



 

NYC Smooth Skin Perfecting Primer

Pros:
-Smoothes skin
-Didn't make my skin break out
-Can be used alone or with foundation
-Minimal expense- $4.00 at CVS, Walmart etc.
-Allure magazine claims it works great. Maybe it just doesn't work too well with my skin type.
 
Cons:
-Makes skin shiny
-Does not extend the wear of foundation
-It also claims that it smoothes imperfections , lines an pores for a perfect complexion. I did not notice that at all.
 
 
 
 
 
Honestly, I don't feel like this does too much. Sure it smoothes the skin, but that's about it. I also have watched many videos about primer and most claim that they are just used to smooth skin and help provide something for foundation to cling to, of which all videos claimed that any facial lotion will do just as well.

 

Glam Eyes Rimmel London HD Eyeshadow

Pros:
-Love the colors-- I got 007 Heart of Gold colors. Great brown tones for blue eyes.
-The have an eye shadow map chart on the back to allow (like a paint by numbers) to show the user how and where to apply each color
-This eye shadow stays on great
-Also the colors keep to the color the are in the container. Just as shiny and 3d as they appear.
-Very inexpensive-- I found them at the dollar tree, but even at CVS, Walmart, Walgreens they are usually $5 or less.

Cons:
-The only thing I did not particularly like was that some of the colors are in such small parts in the container you can hardly get a brush into them without getting all the other colors on your brush as well.

Wet n Wild Nail Polish

Love, Love, Love this color.

Pros:

Awesome color(Wet Cement 201)
Stays on (surprisingly for wet n wild) -- it really does stay on longer! I was very surprised with how chip resistant this was.
Glossy finish
Super cheap ($2-$3)
Found at Walmart, CVS, Walgreens
With Manicurve pro brush-- makes for easy application

Cons:

Doesn't dry as fast as some (for instance Sally Hansen InstaDry)

Overall I was very surprised  with the great finish and long wear of this nail polish. I will definitely purchase this brand again.
