Mascara, Mascara, MASCARA!


Hello again!
Second post of the day, woohoo!
I'm on a major mascara high lately, so today I decided to make a post about my least favorite mascara. I hate it. It's "Lash Stylist" by Mabyelline. I hate it. I wish I loved it, because it does do a really good job of volumizing and lenghtening and thickening your lashes. Like that aspect of it is amazing, except that it deposits these little chunks of mascara on your lashes, and it just looks terrible! I've tried expirimenting with the application to try to avoid the annoying little clumps but I can't figure it out! The brush is so innovative, and you'd think the product would go on great, except it doesn't. and it's sad. :( I've also tried combing out my lashes afterwards, and it does eventually get the chunks out, but by the end, you've just messed up your lashes and they're all in different directions, and it's just a really hard mascara to work with! It also takes an annoyingly long time to dry. Like you have to keep your eye wide open for like 30 seconds or else it'll smudge. ALSO! when you blink, about like 10 minutes you'll see mascara on your bottom lashes, EVEN if you didn't put any!! And last but not least, this mascara flakes really bad!!!

Rating : 4/10

Pros: Thickens, lengthens and volumizes REALLY well.
Cons: Flakes, smudges and leaves chunks of mascara on your lashes!!

Update & Shout out!

Hey everyone!

Well, I sure haven't blogged in a while. School has just been so hectic and with mid-term exams coming up, I've been really busy. But I've still been following all my subscriptions videos and I've been in a couple Ustreams and I've also been reading blogs. I'm really loving the Current State Of the Union. I've been reading the clique books since the first one came out a million years ago, and I always love Massie's CSTU. I might start it up, but I rather not be accused of "copying" since that drama has been going on a lot lately.

Moving on, I'd just like to give a quick shout out to Strawbezzi. I'm sure you are all quite aware of this amazing youtuber, but if you aren't, GO SUB TO HER RIGHT NOW! If I made youtube videos religiously I'd make her a vid, but since I don't, I'll have to settle for a blog-shout out! Honestly guys, she's amazing and beautiful and her ustreams are always soo much fun. She's so down to earth and cute, and just overall a blast to watch! :)

So yeah, basically. After exams end, and it's winter break, I'll probably be blogging much more. I'll be away on vacation for about 12 days, but I'll have a lot of time before and after I depart.
I hope everyone is having a good day, and I'll see you later!!

My new mascara obsession and beauty rush lip glosses

So, I wanted to tell you about my new obsession...fresh supernova mascara. What first caught my eye was it's gorgeous packaging. It's so pretty and dainty in it's black tube and white flowery design! Second, it was on Sephora's faves for mascara. I love it a lot! But the price tag, not so much. It's a fairly expensive mascra, but in my opinon, it's more than worth it!! It seperates, elongates and volumizes your lashes without the least bit of clumping. It's the most dramatic difference, but the most natural one too! I can't say enough good things about this mascara. GO PICK IT UP!

I'm currently on a Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush high right now. I carry around 5 at school. 2 in my pockets, one in my locker, and 2 in my pencil case! I adore them!! They are sooo cheap, $7 each, $12 for 3, and $15 for 5. GET THEM NOW! I have : "grapefruit blast", "slice of heaven", "mango madness", "pinkberry" and "red delicious". My favorite would probably be "slice of heaven". They smell and taste amazing, look so pretty, last a decent amount of time, and aren't sticky at all. They are a great alternative to high end lip glosses and probably the best cheap lip gloss on the market. I will definately be buying more soon. :)



That's it you guys, til next time,
Lauren

Introduction!

Hello, everyone! :)

Welcome to my blog!!!

I decided to start a blog, not because everyone else was.. (though it helped cause I knew my idea would be warmly welcomed since everyone started doing it.) but because it's much easier for me to update you guys on everything going on! It takes a long time to make videos, and upload them, and especially when people aren't requesting them.. it's much easier to just write my thoughts here, and when I have an actual request, I'll make a video! So basically I will be writing about new products, new mac collections, things I love at the moment, things I want, skin care, hair care, and sometimes the occasional life blog! So I hope you guys follow because I think this has the potential to be even more popular than my youtube channel! So please stay tuned and check back regularly for new posts!

See you around,
Lauren
