CoverGirl LashBlast Waterproof Mascara
When packing for a weekend at the beach, a few beauty items most not be forgotten. My friend Megan kindly reminded me that having a waterproof mascara is essential. I was skeptical of purchasing one just for my mexico trip since I’ve never had much luck with waterproof formulas. They seem to always disappoint, never giving a ton of volume. Typically, washing them off involves a lot of elbow grease and lost lashes. Against my…Read More
Disappointed: MAC Zoom Fast Black Lash
I 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.

L’Oreal Telescopic Explosion Mascara
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?!

Benefit’s Bad Gal Blue Mascara
I feel it very necessary to have at least 4 to 5 different mascaras in my beauty rotation at any one time. So why not have a color or two in amongst the blacks and more blacks?! I’ve tried Benefit’s Bad Gal Plum in the past, but never their more popular older incarnation Benefit Bad Gal Blue. I got a sample of bad gall blue recently from Sephora and have been using it ever since. I…Read More
Cover Girl LashBlast Length Mascara
Some products I get to try hit the ball way out of the park… and others leave me very disappointed. This one is in the latter category for sure. I reviewed Cover Girl’s original LashBlast mascara a long time ago, back in 2007 to be exact! It was an awesome drugstore fine: great fat brush, great formula and color. Only unfortunate thing was the big fat orange tube it came in. Well Cover Girl is now…Read More
