Make Up For Ever Smoky Extravagant Mascara (Review)

Time for another review! As you can see from the picture below I have a sample of the smoky extravagant mascara from +MAKE UP FOR EVER. The full size at Sephora retails for $30 and contains 0.23oz. While the one I have contains 0.13 oz and is worth about $17. As strange as it may be I was really sure that it originally cost $28 but I guess they bumped up the price. 

This mascara is meant to add volume, length and curl while also being clump-free. The mascara is meant to be long-lasting while being able to define each lash for a extravagant impact. 

I have to say that this mascara does not clump unless you don't wait for the first coat to dry and there is no fall out. I love the length that it gives me because I can't wear fall lashes due to my glasses (I know! The horror!) I did notice that after 14 hours the mascara does smudge under my eyes but I feel like my lashes look a lot fuller and longer which is what I love. However, I did find when applying several coats of the mascara that my lashes were so long that they were rubbing on the lenses of my glasses. 

I love trying out new mascaras because if you guys haven't noticed I'm the type of gal who has long hour days like today and yesterday...So I need to find a mascara that's not going to rub off after a few hours and leave me with raccoon eyes. And no one wants raccoon eyes. I love that I can put this mascara on my lower lashes without my under eye area smudging after twenty minutes. 

Time for the rating. I am going to give this mascara 4.5 stars on 5. It does last a long time and makes my lashes look good but it does clump. It's not a perfect product but it's pretty damn close to it. I recommend you guys that if you get a chance, try it out for yourselves. 

***(Unfortunately, from what I gathered on Peta's site, Make Up For Ever does test on animals. 👎)***

Neutrogena: Healthy Skin Instant Tone Corrector (Review)

Image
***Not Cruelty Free 👎*** This silky, lightweight formula is meant to smooth the skin and correct complexion in seconds. This formula contains essential soy which is "proven" to correct and brighten skin tone while also reducing the look of dark spots, pores and wrinkles. It also helps make-up to be applied smoothly and last longer. The SPF in the tone corrector helps the skin looking healthy. It can be worn alone or with makeup. It contains SPF 15 and is for all skin types. This product costs around $20 but I got it for a $1! You can checkout Neutrogena's website  here.   Essentially, this is a tone corrector and it can be used as a primer after moisturizer. When I read the description on the box I was praying to God that this would work because as I've previously stated in the past few blog posts I've written; this summer my skin has been freaking out with pimples and in consequence I have dark spots all over my chin area where I previously had pimples

True Blood: Season 1 Episode 6 Cold Ground (Episode Review)

Image
((((((This review contains spoilers.)))))) Adele Stackhouse is dead and of course Sookie is in shock but damn everyone keeps on bugging her. Can everyone just let the poor girl grieve? Of course Sam and Bill have to seize each other up. My question is why does Bill think he knows Sookie so well? Dude, you've known her maybe a week tops. Or has he known her for a week as he would like everyone to believe? I don't understand how Sookie was able to clean up the kitchen after her grandmother was murdered in it. It's a shame that Adele died she was such a gentle spirit.  Jason is just slowly deteriorating beyond belief. Addicted to vampire blood, suspected of several murders and now hitting his own sister. Thank God for Tara and Lafayette because they are amazing friends. They are funny and caring I wish they were my friends.  Sookie yelling and cursing at everyone during the funeral just made me laugh so much. I would react the same way if not worse had I been abl

Ouija: Origin Of Evil (Movie Review)

Image
(((((Please be warned there are spoilers))))) Movie Summary: In 1960's California, a fake medium's daughter tries to communicate with her late father through a Ouija board, but unleashes a demon instead. This movie is the prequel of the movie Ouija which I have already reviewed. The review for the movie Ouija is here. In the movie we are introduced to the Zander family. The widowed mother Alice and her two daughters Paulina and Doris. Due to losing her husband, Alice becomes the sole provider for her family and to earn some sort of income she performs séances to help her clients get closure from their passed loved ones. She makes money off of scamming people and she uses both her daughters to do it. Personally, I think it's really fucked up to exploit someone's pain and grief to make a few quick bucks. But using her own logic, through deceit she is able to provide some sort of comfort and closure. It does not take too long for Alice to incorporate the po
