Mascara edition

the key to perfect long lashes is the perfect mascara I've been using mascara for a while now so I've experimented with quit a few different brands, since Mac is well known i wanted to try a MAC mascara, i spent 22 dollars on a mascara i wasn't so pleased with. It worked well at first but it starting making my lashes clumpy and hard which is obviously not a cute look. So I went on a hunt for the perfect mascara, first i started reading reviews on mascaras from brands like sophora and MAC but i never found anything i liked. After that i went to the the actual store sophora to see if there was anything i liked but i didn't find anything so then i went shoppers drug mart and an employee helped me and recommended this mascara by benefit since I've never heard of this brand I was a bit skeptically at first, but I was hearing all the great things about the mascara that I was tempted to buy the it so I bought it. It was a 30$ mascara but also came with a free gel eyeliner.As soon as I got home I tried it and I was honestly so satisfied! Probably one of the best mascaras I've ever used, I really recommend this mascara to anyone who wants to have long natural looking eyelashes! And I was very satisfied with the free gel liner that came with it as well they both work really good together. You can buy this mascara at any shoppers drug mart and also you can order it online at http://www.benefitcosmetics.com  

Tip: if you have a mascara that you really like and it works really good but its starting to get dry, soak it in a cup of warm and itll be like new!

More hacks!!

This next hack will be about hidden secrets about pencil eyeliner that you probably didn't know!  

Have you ever ran out of gel liner at the worst possible time? I know I have! So this tip really comes in handy for me. Hold your kohl eye pencil under a flame for one second, let it cool for at least 15 seconds, and there you have it! Your pencil eyeliner is now a gel liner, and easy to apply! I use this now on almost a daily basis because I find having a gel liner in pencil form is soo much easier and faster to apply.


Almost every morning when I'm doing my eyeliner I end up making a mistake and making a huge mess on my eye and would have to restart, I hate it because  in the mornings I barely have any time and this just makes me late. So this tip could really you if your having the same problem as me. You can easily fix smudged eyeliner with a skin colored eyeliner! It's simple just draw over it with a skin-colored liner instead of wiping it off and starting over. This is also a great trick if you want to make the line super sharp and it'll almost make your eyeliner last longer!
