Revlon Grow Luscious Mascara Review

WHAAAAAAAAATTTTT??????????? 

Was my first response when I finally gave this underdog product a try this week. Jessica had recommended it to me a few months back, but I never gave it a try until now, and I am SO glad I did!!!!

THE GOOD

DAAAAANNNNNNGGGG for a drugstore mascara, this product creates the most lengthy, BLACK, and curly lashes while still allowing flexability in the lashes once it has dried! Another trait it has is the large wand. Some may say this is a bad thing, but I think it depends on one's own preferences. I personally am neutral about it. Sometimes I'm extremely happy with it because it coats my lashes far more rapidly than a lot of my other mascaras, and other times, it gets annoying to get the inner corner and lower lashes.

THE BAD

The product itself is adored by me daily, but as for the packaging...ehh. All it has is green and silver in a very simple, normal looking tube. There's not really anything attracting to it to draw people in. However if people would try their best not to judge the book by it's cover, they would find out how great of a product it really is!

THE GLAMOROUS

One thing I really appreciate about this product is the price, and what you get for that price! It's a real bargain and it's sooooooooooo what's the word? Oh yeah, LUSCIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your's til the glitter end,

Straight-up High School Makeup: How much is too much?

Good Day peoples, today I would like to tell you all about high school makeup. I am in high school and I think that often times (especially in the online beauty community) this topic is often overlooked. So when you're in high school what exactly is the right amount of makeup?

The Face

So you know how a lot of girls in the beauty community use foundation all over their face? Well let me tell you something they're not telling you. 

If uneeded, why wear it?

Many girls suffer from hyperpigmentation and sunspots, and in many cases, bad acne. These circumstances are when foundation is typically preferred to people. But girl! If you only have like 5 blemishes and some dark circles?! A little concealer for spot concealing and some powder will make your skin look flawless! Wearing unecessary makeup is clogging your pores, thus slowly but surely making your skin get worse and worse.

No Stripes on the Cheeks Please

Have you ever noticed the amount of blush that some people wear everyday? Some girls wear so much, you can literally see stripes on their cheeks. For high schoolers, this is definitely too dramatic. So how to get a natural flush to your cheeks without looking like a zebra? Find a blush that is a light baby pink, and make sure you do your research. You want a blush that is not very pigmented, as many blushes that are pigmented tend to leave stripes, and sometimes even blending it out with a powder or kabuki brush just won't do it. For blush, I highly reccommend Maybelline's "Fit me" blushes. These blushes are often overlooked in the beauty community because they're not very pigmented. However in my experience, if you apply a good two sweeps across the cheek of this product, you will achieve that nice, natural glow.

The Eyes

Crazy Contouring?!

Who ever said you had to contour in your crease like mad? A simple shimmery white under the brow bone and on the inner corner with a champagne color on the lid will do the trick to truly enhance your natural beauty. However, if you still want to contour your eye without those crazy stipes on your eyes, applying a tiny bit of a light brown on the outer part of the lid will create the same effect to your eye without making your makeup so dramatic.

No more Mascara Mayhem!

Why wear coat upon coat upon coat of black mascara, when you could wear just one coat of a very natural looking mascara that doesn't clump? I highly recommend L'Oreal's Telescopic mascara, as it never clumps, and looks so natural on my eyelashes!

Yours to the glitter end,

Review: Maybelline Color Tattoos

I want to tell You about these Maybelline Color Tattoos!
Hello sunshines! Today I would like to review a product that has gotten a lot of buzz on the web, the color tattoos from Maybelline.

The Good, the Bad, and the Glamorous

The Good:

Very Pigmented
I loved the pigmentation on these. With many cream eyeshadows, it is very difficult to get the pigmentation that I want. But with this product, it is very easy to build the color(s).

The Bad:

False Advertising
This product says that it should last for 24 hours, but in my experience, the most it will last is 3-4 hours before reapplication is needed. Creasing is a bit of a problem with this product, however it more clumps together in certain areas of the eyelid rather than creases.

Sticky
Unlike the MAC paint pots which this product has been compared to many times across the web, it is quite sticky and not as smooth as them.
The Glamorous:

Good color selection
Although this product has its faults, I will say that Maybelline gave us a great color selection and it is a good cream eyeshadow for its price ($4.99).

From Left to Right: Bad to the Bronze, Silver Strike, Painted Purple, Tenacious Teal, Edgy Emerald, Too Cool
