L’Oréal Paris Elnett Extra StrongHold Hairspray

Beth — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 00:11:12 +0000

Dubbed the holy grail of hairsprays, L’Oréal Paris’ Elnett Extra StrongHold used to be stowed away in every girl-in-the-know’s checked luggage back from Europe. But now this coveted spray is available in the states… hello Target! They did have to modify the ingredients slightly to make it passed our FDA, but I am really liking this hairspray. The HUGE gold bottle is so eighties, but in a good way I think. I sprayed…

L’Oreal Telescopic Explosion Mascara

Beth — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 18:46:17 +0000

L’Oreal’s latest addition to the mascara scene is very reminiscent of a certain high-end fashion-house-gone-beauty brand’s very popular mascara of 2008… Givenchy’s Phenomen’Eyes anyone?! L’Oreal’s Telescopic Explosion Mascara has a very similar brush, but the wand is much longer and skinnier. It takes a few tries to get used to applying mascara with a little round ball like this, but once you get the hang of it, it does have its…

L’Oreal Clean Artiste Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover

Some products are so good, I just keep going back to them. I have probably been using this eye makeup remover for around 10 years. No matter what else I try, I just never like it quite as much. It is cheap and easy to find at any local drugstore. This easy to spot blue bottle can be found either in the cosmetics or skincare aisle along with other L’Oreal products. They recently changed the…

While I am a fan of awesome gel pot eyeliners, I do still use lots of pencil liners. The are good in a pinch, especially when I’m feeling lazy. When I want a thick, dramatic eyeliner line and I don’t feel like dealing with a brush, I reach for a soft pencil that will give me lots of color without much effort (or pressure: I hate when pencils are too hard and make…

L’Oreal’s Extra-Volume Collagen Mascara

Beth — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 20:47:00 +0000

I’ve found yet another mascara that I really like… and best of all, you can get it at the drugstore. I am a big proponent of tossing your mascara every 3-5 months, which is hard to do if you spend $20 bucks on it! But L’Oreal’s Extra-Volume Collagen Mascara is cheap, looks great, and is easily replaceable.

First of all the brush is just fabulous. It is big a fluffy, yet doesn’t get in…
