Review: Maybelline The Falsies Volume Express

the FALSiES VOLUM' EXPRESS

I've been using this mascara for 2 years. a long time, yes. 
I have a normal lashes; not full nor thin. not long nor short. just avarage. 
pictures for mascara reviews are more informative than writing soo:




Its all faded.. too old.


 the brush looks like thisss. 



 Before applying 



 1st coat 


 2nd Coat 


 2 coats/eyelash curler



 (scary lol. I'll do it beautifully next time :D) after 4 hours of wear. no retouch or anything
 after 6 hours, it began to smudge. (now :D)

Review:


Price: Depending where you buy it. $8.99

Packaging: Purple with laces around the cap of the brush. cute!

Comments: I like the volume and the length it gives my lashes. I don't like that it doesn't hold up the curls and after a few hours it smudges on my lower lash line. not pretty. As I said, i've been using this for a long time, I just realized that I definitely should switch up. any suggestions? :)

Thanks for reading beautiful ladies!

Maybelline Forever Strong Nailpolish - My Thoughts



I've been looking for a great taupe nail colour. I was originally gonna buy Barry M's - Mushroom  and thought since I dont have any nailpolish with Maybelline yet; no harm trying this one..

   Maybellines Forever Strong Nailpolish - 788 Rosy Sand
   It has Calcium, Iron and Silica and claims to last up to 7 days.

After 7 days of wearing the polish.. 






Overall Rating - ♥ 
 *love the colour, texture, brush applicator, very smooth and the lasting power is quite good actually! you do need to put on two coats of this. 
 BUT!!!!!!!! this nailpolish stained my nails! As I said, this is my first time trying out Maybellines Nailpolish. My Barry Ms doesnt stain my nails and this is the first time. and I dont like it. :(




  *still wanting to look and try other taupe nailpolishes. any suggestions? :)

Maybelline 24hr Color Tattoo - My thoughts



I mainly bought this because I was looking for a good gold colour for my inner eye corner
whenever i'm doing a simple makeup just to give it a little 'pop'.


I don't really have high expectations for this but I knew everyone had been raving about it and
loving it becase of how pigmented it was and stays on all day.

and I agree. I did a swatch of this on my hands and didnt came off till the day after.
I love the colour too!

after using it for my inner corners, personally, I didnt like it. Its probably
better off being an eyeshadow. why I didn't like it?

  It was too shimmery and too strong to be used for inner corners.
  had smooth it out and get rid of the big chunks.
  and it didn't compliment my skin colour.
