Review: Bambi Eye Mascara by L'Oréal

By M.C. -
My willingness to try new mascaras is ENDLESS.

Which is why I decided to pick up  L'Oréal's new Bambi Eyes mascara. L'Oréal claims that this mascara delivers "volumized, elongated lashes for a doe-eyed effect," which sounds absolutely perfect for me, so I decided to try it out.

I've now been using it for about a month, and I have some THOUGHTS to share.

First of all, I'm not seeing the elongating element in this mascara. It gives my lashes a little bit of length, but I think the effect is minimal. Every mascara gives some length, but this was nothing exceptional. However, this mascara does deliver nice volume, so I enjoy that.

So, does this mascara give a bambi eye effect? I would say the answer is kind of. It definitely makes your lashes look full and dense, but I don't think it gives you the length that I associate with "doe-eyes."

Also, I should note that this mascara retails for $11, which I think is reasonable for a L'Oréal product. Although, as always, I wish it was a tad bit cheaper.

So, in conclusion, I think this mascara is just okay. I have nothing against it, but I probably wouldn't buy it again.

Final Rating: 7/10

Beautifully Bare Foundation Serum by e.l.f.: Review

I'm a big fan of e.l.f. complexion products, so, when I was placing a big order from their website a few months ago, I decided to check out this product: the Beautifully Bare Foundation Serum. I've used it quite a few times since the order arrived, and I have to say that the name is accurate. It does make your face look beautifully bare. It's almost invisible on the skin; it's like a light veil that downplays imperfections. It really is a "your skin but better" look. E.l.f. describes it as a "weightless silky formula melts into skin for a radiant and youthful-looking glow. The luminous, dewy finish helps boost suppleness and minimize the appearance of pores and fine lines," and I think that's a good description. The product basically illuminates and blurs your skin with a minimal amount of coverage. E.l.f. notes that this product has flawless coverage, but I think it's important to note that this product has very little coverage. It m...

The De-Clutter is Real

By M.C. -

Let's get one thing straight, I have way too much makeup. I am confident that I will continue to have way too much makeup for the rest of my life. I have enough eyeshadow and lipstick to make sure that my lips will be sticky (weird choice of words, I know) and my eyes will be shadowed for the rest of my life -- and then some. Anyway, I don't mind having a lot of makeup, but, sometimes, it gets a little overwhelming (even for me). So, I recently embarked upon a de-clutter. I especially wanted to de-clutter some stuff because I was preparing to move and I didn't want to drag a lot of unnecessary stuff to my next apartment (I'm fairly sure that I did drag a lot of unnecessary stuff to my new apartment, but that's beside the point). Anyway, I managed to de-clutter quite a bit of stuff, and I wanted to talk about the items I'm getting rid of, so let's get into the details. These are the products I decided to de-clutter: Bright Set Loose Finishing Powder by S...

New to My Collection (November 2017)

By M.C. -

A few months ago, I started a series called New to My Collection, in which I talk about products that I've recently added to my makeup collection and what I think about them. I didn't get a ton of new things in November, so some of these things are from October. However, I want to talk about them anyway and give you my thoughts. So, without further ado, here are some products that were new to my collection in November: Infallible Blend Artist Foundation Blender by L'Oreal - You can stick a fancy name on a makeup sponge, but it's still just a makeup sponge and that's what this is. Personally, I think this sponge is just okay. However, I should say that I prefer sponges with a flat edge. I think this sponge is a good size, has good density, and is very good about not soaking up all your makeup. It gives nice coverage and all of that jazz; I just wish it had a flat side. That being said, I think it's a great value for the money ($8) and I would recommend picking...
