Okay so we all know that most women are always on the look out for a good mascara and I finally found one. It's L'Oreal Extra Volume Collagen mascara and it's awesome. I like the 'old style' brushes, not like the the funky looking ones they're coming out with now. Better yet, it's only like $5!

Product Rave/Rant

Okay.. Like most women I have an ongoing hunt for mascara. I know people swear by Mac or other expensive brands, but I wear makeup every.single.day and normally touch up mascara throughout the day so that's a little much for me to spend. Recently I tried Rimmel London Sex Curves Waterproof mascara to be extremely disappointed. It says a "Full volume and curve mascara" and well it lied. It makes my eyelashes piece out and look really thin. It's difficult to apply and takes forever to dry. For it to even look decent I have to curl my lashes before, take forever to apply it and then curl them again after it's dried. It takes longer to apply this mascara then it does to apply everything else. If you like a light mascara this might work for you, but it's just not my style.

Now the only mascara I've tried and loved is the Mary Kay brand. It's awesome! :)

Product Rave Update!

So the hairspray I posted about yesterday failed me. it smells good and probably does really well for curls or when you put your hair back.. but not so good for poofs. It was good for about 3 hours and then I was looking a hot mess. I will say awhile ago I used Paul Mitchell, but at $20 a can and the way I go through hairspray.. it was a little too much for me. Maybe I'll get that just for the poofs. Lol who knows.

Another Product Rave!!

Okay I know I'm being a blog whore today.. but whatever.

If anyone likes to 'poof' their hair like I do you go through a lot of hairspray, and you've probably tired a billion different ones. For the longest time I was using Aussie (because it held and it was cheap), but they didn't have the kind I use so I got Tresemme Extra Hold Hair Spray and I LOVE IT! It's awesome (and smells a lot better than Aussie). I could use it for a poof to make it stay or with some curls. It doesn't freeze them so it's not like you're wearing a helmet lol.

Product Rave!

I know I have a lot of these.. but the best way to know if something is good is by word of mouth. This one isn't as exciting as most, but it's necessary. It's a vacuum. It's the Bissell Lift-Off Bagless Upright with the Shedaway Pet Grooming Tool. We got this spur of the moment when our vacuum decided not to work so we ran to Target and got a Bissell because well I'm not ready to spend $500 on a Dyson just yet. This one is $175 and at the time we got a $35 Target gift card with this vacuum purchase. So it made it cheaper than the other one. It has a HEPA filter and It's a multi-surface which is awesome. I haven't used a broom since we got it because I vacuum everything. It also has the strongest suction power bissell offers. Now the Pet Shedaway tool we could have definitely done without seeing as how we have a short haired dog, but it actually works. I have also heard great things about the Bissell Healthy Home (you can see it here).

Product Rave!

So I wear a bun in my hair at least 3 days out of the week. I love that you can make it 'messy' with a pouf and wear it with an evening gown or going to run errands or you can do a tight bun for the office. I just love it. With my hair I have to always use a new hair tie (so that it's not stretched out) or a billion bobby pins.
I saw a commercial for this Spin Pin made by Goody. I had to give it a try. It comes with two of them in a package for $5.99 and IT WORKS! It's awesome! You twist your hair into a bun and spin one from the top and one from the bottom (make sure not to interlock them) and it holds! It feels more secure than a hair tie or bobby pins.

I just had to Share.
