ginormous lash mudslideI am a pretty consistent user of the blackest black of black mascara’s out there. But seeing as I am blonde with blue eyes, I can easily tone down my eye look by going the brown/neutral route. I was skeptical at first to try Hard Candy’s Ginormous Lash in Mudslide because a least 75% of the mascara’s I try disappoint. I look in the mirror at work at about 3pm and they are all over my…Read More

diamondsEven I am a sucker for a drugstore promo display. Evidenced by my Walgreens purchase of Maybelline’s  The Colossal Volume Express Mascara with Diamonds when all I was going in to do was get some cash. It looks like a fun idea, mascara with sparkles!

Typically, washing them off involves a lot of elbow grease and lost lashes. Against my…Read More

Disappointed: MAC Zoom Fast Black Lash

zoomfast-blacklash-image1I was super excited to try this new mascara that MAC came out with for one of their latest collections (they have so many, I can’t keep track or stay up), but I was really, very disappointed. I love MAC’s original Zoomlash, an inky black mascara that gives great volume and darkness, so I thought this latest version would be just as good. Zoom Fast Black Lash is supposed to just be a deeper, darker version of…Read More
