Benefit They're Real Mascara = HOLY GRAIL MASCARA

Holy shit, guys! I think I just found my holy grail mascara!

I have been searching and searching for the perfect mascara and I think this is the one.

Personally, I love dramatic eyelooks so a dramatic lashes is a MUST.
This mascara makes my lashes look so long. I didn't even think that my lashes could look like this.



Excuse my nails. I need to do them soon. Can I just say that I freakin love shellac by the way?

Anyway, I received the sample mascara on Sephora and just fell in love with it right away. I decided to purchase the full size mascara. 


I think it's the brush that makes this mascara so perfect and the thick fiber formula.
Here is me wearing them. Two coats.

PROS:
- It really does lengthen the lashes
-Very dark. Which I like
- Good Formula
- Makes my eyelashes look "fake"

CONS:
-Very Pricey. 23 USD

Overall, I think this is the best mascara I have ever tried.

Here is an instagram version and how it looks with dramatic make up ;)


WHAT IS YOUR HOLY GRAIL MASCARA?


Neutral eyes + Red Lips = Best Combo

Hey dolls, It's almost the weekend!

Well almost the weekend for me, since my week ends on Thursdays. No school on Fridays. I freakin' love college!

Today, I decided to do this FOTD. I've never really been a "natural" kind of girl since I am such a huge fan of dark makeup but I decided to give this a try.

The red lipstick makes the look complete in my opinion.
I love it

MAC Archie's Girls FOTD

I was thinking about picking up this collection. I was looking at the swatches and most of the lipsticks got me. 
Originally, I was going to pick up Betty Bright, Daddy's Little Girl,Ronnie Red and Girl Next Door but when I went to my local MAC counter, everything was sold out and I only got my hands on Girl Next Door . Bummer. 
The rest of the collection didn't really catch my eye.





The lipstick was a lustre and a little bit too sheer for my liking but it's a perfect baby pink for everyday look. Not too bold but not too boring.

By the way, I used OPI Alpine Snow on my nails in case you're wondering
