Maybelline XXL Mascara

Mascara at a good price. That’s “Maybelline XXL Mascara” and that’s all the positive I have to say about that one.
I bought it and only used it one time, not because of the wear or look of the mascara. I hated the design of the wand. It was too short and it drove me nuts. I gave it to my girls and they don’t seem to have a problem with it, but I disliked it enough to waste my money.

Maybelline Superstay Foundation

I have been trying different foundations lately in an attempt to find good coverage without spending a ton of money. I’ve now been using Maybelline Superstay foundation.
The product ad says it will last for 16 hours. I can’t verify the 16 hours because I don’t last 16 hours. But I did receive the coverage I wanted for a decent price. After using this product I searched the Internet for Maybelline Superstay and found there is a website where you can receive a sample of the product.
If you haven’t used it before it is worth the try.


Cover Girl Volume Exact

I do have a difficult time finding a mascara that I like. Most clump or flake off during the wear of the day. I decided to try Cover Girl’s Volume Exact. It was about $6.50 and this package came with an eye liner.
I have previously used Almay Lengthening Mascara and Revlon Fabulash Mascara.
I like the Cover Girl Volume Exact better because it goes on smoother separating the lashes and seems to last longer through the day.


Almay Pure Blends

I purchased Almay Pure Blends mineral makeup in brush form. I paid about $11.00 I like the brush powder set-up. I push the button on the bottom and it distributes the powder to the bristles I bought this product hoping for the ultimate, even coverage.
I’ve found this product doesn’t have enough coverage for me to use as a base/foundation and is too much for a powder finish.
So I continue my search for the foundation.

Little bit of this, little bit of that haul


I recently got a little money and decided to spend it on, what else, MAKEUP. So, I ordered s few things from all over. Everything together: From Coastal Scents I picked up a bunch of glitter samples, the purple gel liner, and some samples containers. I plan on making some piggie samples for my elf. From NYX, I picked up the round lipsticks in lala and penelope, long lip pencils in deep purple, hot cocoa, and currant, and purple glitter mania. I also got lip glosses in clear, beige

'Cuz Robert Pattinson shure do have a purty mouth...


I've decided this is the reason I, embarrassingly, find myself drawn to the movie theater to see Twilight. Or perhaps some sort of former professional interest in the makeup--which does look very interesting--model perfection in the pouring rain and cold. God, I'm glad I didn't work on this one. I think I would have been in tears the entire time. It would have been Coniston Water all over again
