Maybelline The Falsies Mascara

Hi beauties! Today I will be reviewing the latest mascara to enter my collection. Mascaras are actually something I don't buy that much since they tend to dry out quickly and you're *supposed* to throw them away.

This is a well known mascara in the beauty community. I would say it's decent, I mean it's a good mascara but I honestly think it's not that special. It adds volume and length but not in the way that I would like to. Volume is what I want more of, but it doesn't exactly do that, sadly. Doesn't give the effect of false lashes on me. But it doesn't clump, which is a plus.

The brush is like a spoon aha, it's curved. What I like about it is that it fills the gap.

Overall, I think that this mascara is an okay one. Not the best, not the worst. I feel like it works for some and doesn't work for some people. Maybe it's for you, but wasn't completely for me.

April favorites

Hi lovelies! Crazy how this year is going by! Can't believe it, feels like just yesterday it was January. In the month of April, I've been sick for almost like 3-4 weeks. So glad to be feeling better! So I haven't had the chance to experiment with a lot of makeup, so I'm sorry about that.

Revlon Brow Fantasy in Brunette: I really believe that doing your brows can frame/change your makeup. This includes pencil and a colored brow gel. If you're eyebrows are pale like me, or you just want more definition; this will be your best friend - two steps and voilà! It will make your eyebrows stand more while still looking natural, if that makes any sense.

Rimmel Scandaleyes eyeliner in Nude: This is great to wear on the waterline. It does not stay on all day but there's no eyeliner this color on the market (I think) so for the price, we can't complain.

Maybelline Masterduo by Eyestudio liquid eyeliner: This dual tip eyeliner is great for cat eyes/winged eyeliner. A super pigmented black and glossy eyeliner. You can use either the flat disc side for a thick dramatic line or just turn it around and get a more sophisticated thin line.

Benefit They're Real mascara:  One of my all time favorite mascara. I'm almost out of this and I'm gonna buy the full size once I run out. This is such a jet-black/glossy mascara. Volume/length. The custom-domed is one thing that makes this mascara outstanding: you can get precise applications for those tiny lashes you can't usually get.  

Maybelline Vivids: I love these! They are perfect for Spring/Summer. For now, I have two: Fuchsia Flash and Pink Pop. I don't want to do a mini review right now, cause I plan on doing a full review soon - I want some more! What are your favorites?

Lise Watier: Ombre Soufflé Supreme in Taupe Fantasia: Lise Watier, I believe, is a brand that is only sold in Canada. This, is such an unique product. Never anything quite like it yet: Long lasting eyeshadow part cream/part mousse. It's a light airy formula.

Physicians Formula eyeshadow palette in Nude: This palette comes with 9 eyeshadow, separated by sections of 3 to create 3 different looks, but you can surely mix and match and create your own looks. This palette contains neutral/nude eyeshadows. When you swatch them they don't seem that pigmented but all together they look gorgeous!

Evian Facial Spray: I went through 2-3 bottles of these. I always get great deals on them! This facial spray moisturizes, refreshes and tones. It can also help to fix makeup. This is a great facial spray, especially for the Spring/Summer, I recommend it to everyone.

Hope you enjoyed my April favorites. What did you liked using during the month of April? x

February favorites

Hi lovelies! I'm kinda late with my February favorites, but better late than never, right? So, this month of February was an important month for me- I turned 20 on the 1st! On the other side, I did not experiment with beauty products all that much but I still want to show you some of my favorites! So, let's go!

Maybelline Color Tattoo Metal in Inked in Pink:
In the pot, it may seem a bit scary. Honestly, I was a bit scared cause I thought: "I don't wear that kind of pink eyeshadow", but then I tought of Sin of the Urban Decay Naked Palette and I heard that it was a great duo with Wet N' Wild Walking on Eggshells. (which is also one of my favorite) It's a light frosted pink/rose gold/champagne color, it's super gorgeous. Believe it or not, you can actually get a pretty neutral look with this, which is what I love.

Wet N Wild eyeshadow trio in Walking on Eggshells:
As I said, this is a great duo with the color tattoo in Inked in pink. Or it can also be great on it's own. It's great for an everyday look. For the quality and the pigmentation, you can't go wrong with how much you pay for this. It's just an overall amazing little palette.

Maybelline The Rocket Volum' Express Mascara:
This is a great volumising mascara. Some people LOVE it, some people HATE it. But I think it's great and one of my favorite at the moment. I have a review on this mascara which you can check out here.

Essence Cherry Blossom Girl Blush in Asian Sensation:
This is a great everyday blush, it gives you a natural and fresh complexion look.

Essence Cherry Blossom Girl Highlighter:
This might be one top my Benefit Highbeam highlighter. It's a pinky color. It gives a GREAT glow which I what I really love about this product. I'm sad that this isn't in their permanent lines, because it's really great.

Essence Cherry Blossom Girl Quattro Eyeshadow in Under a cherry tree:
I've been loving the two neutral eyeshadows on the right; they are super glowy, pigmented and blendable!

First online Sephora order

Hey lovelies! I'm so happy, today, I received my first Sephora order! The closest Sephora to my town is like 2 hours away. Since I didn't go to that Sephora 2 weeks before or after my birthday, I didn't want to lose my beauty insider gift. So I bought one thing (I would have bought more, but I bought so much makeup lately, I need to calm myself a bit aha), I bought the Urban Decay Naked Basics! Aside from my birthday gift I got a bunch of samples, I was very pleased with them, and I will surely order from Sephora online again! :)

Here's an overview of everything I got.

Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette: This is the only thing I ordered. It was on my wishlist of numerous beauty things I want, the decision was hard, but it was only 32$ (which is not expensive if you're familiar with Sephora) and I got my beauty insider birthday gift and numerous samples. I'm in LOVE with the packaging, it's super cute. As I only got it today, I have not had the chance to try it that much, so I won't do a review right now, but I will soon. 

Benefit real birthday turns-on including Benefit They're Real! mascara and Watt's Up soft focus highlighter for face: I was super excited when I saw that this was the beauty insider birthday gift for this year, because I've been wanting to try these products for SO long. Maybe I could do a review of those two products and tell you girls if I will buy the full-size product? Let me know! This is actually my first time having a Sephora beauty insider, super exciting, right? Haha! 

Too Faced Glamour Gloss Volumizing lip gloss with lip injection Comfort Plump in Flirt: As the name says, it's a plumping gloss, the color is a pretty neutral pink! Seems like a color I will use alot. 

3 samples: I'm not positive but I think that you can always have 3 samples when you order on Sephora. So these are the ones I chose:

• Laura Mercier Foundation Primer - Radiance
• Soap & Glory Face Soap and Clarity 3-in-1 Daily-detox vitamin c facial wash
• Justin Bieber's Girlfriend Perfume

Hope you enjoyed seeing my first online Sephora order. I will be doing some review, I will do one about the Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette for sure! And I was very please with the online service from Sephora and I will surely make a bigger order! haha. If you want any other reviews or more information let me know! xoxo

REVIEW: Maybelline The Rocket Volum' Express Mascara

Hi lovelies! Today, I will be reviewing my favorite mascara of the moment: Maybelline The Rocket Volum' Express.

The blue and pink packaging totally sold me. But the product itself is as great as the packaging. Maybelline says it will make your lashes 8X bigger and smoother. Which is totally true. This is by far, one of the best mascara I've used. Also, the best volumizing one. Also, it doesn't clump.

When I first saw the wand I thought of the Covergirl Lashblast Volume. Except I feel like the bristles are a bit smaller on The Rocket mascara.

I haven't tried that many mascaras, because I like to finish them up because they dry so fast. As I said, in the ones that I have tried this is one that suprised me alot. I'd say it would be in my top 5. If you want beautiful, sleek and smooth volume this is the right mascara for you.

RATING: 10/10
