[[.Snob Reviews: L'Oreal Voluminous, Starry Eyeliner Gel & CoverGirl Lippies.]]

I picked up L'Oreal Voluminous Mascara in Blackest Black. I was in CVS and saw a cart in the front of the store filled with clearance items. I was digging and I found this at the very bottom!! It was marked down to $2! $2!!! It retails for around $7-$8! Good Bargain. I really like this mascara. It doesn't clump up at all. I applied 2 coats and there were no clumps what so ever. It lengthens and separates. It is super black and not a charcoal black like other mascaras. I find no cons with this product. The brush is very thick and full but its precise enough to get all the little lashes on top, as well as on the bottom. This is becoming my h.g. mascara.



I stopped by Ross a few days ago... I always stop by the beauty section after getting an amazing cream (review coming soon). Anyway, I said a cardboard pop-up display that was broken and rundown with the name of Starry on it. I recognized the brand from going to beauty supply stores, cherryculture.com, etc. I took a look and there was only one box left, I took a look at it and decided to purchase. It came with a synthetic brush for lining. I got it home and did my makeup as usual. This is the first time that I have used gel eyeliner. First thing that I realized that I liked the ease of being carefree with using my liner brush, let me explain more. With traditional liquid liner, I would have to super duper careful to be extra steady with my hand to avoid accidents. Also, it was easier lining and not being worried about getting liner on my lashes. That is one of my pet peeves when it comes to makeup. Oh! I forgot! The price! $2.49! Wow!

Alright, let me talk about these lashes. These lashes looked sick and I have seen them over and over but never bought them. I went out on a whim and bought them a couple weeks ago. I rushed home to open the package and the lash band was very thick and stiff... BOOO!!!! Anyway, they were $1.99. Who can beat that?? Those lippies are by Covergirl. The swatches are below.
These lipsticks are very sheer. Although they are sheer, they lay down just enough color on my lips. I love them along with my MAC dazzleglasses.
They were $2 each.
Well, that's it!! Hope you guys enjoyed my post!

  2. I don't really like the liner... it never dries... I know use it as a base or to cut the crease. Thanks for reading and commenting...
