She's Back...

Hello, nice to meet you. I feel the need to re-introduce considering the fact that it's been almost a month since my last post {naughty}. The much less than to be desired day job has been all consuming. Kids, stay away from corporate America.

ANYWAY, mascara.

Would you like to know the front runners for every occasion that mascara is called for?--Which is every occasion by the way.


This is a tie between YSL Faux Cils Shocking Collection and Giorgio Armani Cosmetics Eyes to Kill Mascara. Both yield near identical results.

The YSL formula is lengthening and volumizing at the root of the lash. It's a bit wet at first but becomes easier to work with once it dries up a bit in the tube. This product is true to it's beautiful french nom--Faux Cils {flash lashes en francais} will give the appearance of false lashes without any! The only down side for me is that it is heavily scented, but the formula is so amazing that I can get over it. I've re-purchased...it's worth it gals.

Ah, Eyes To Kill. Just the name is enough to want to purchase! The brush on this mascara is a bit larger and denser than the YSL, but again, yields that same false lash effect. This product just feels luxurious with its weighted tube and silky formula. It's never failed me, and stays put till I say when. The waterproof formula needs mention as well, whether you are at the beach {yes I wear mascara to the beach--so should you} or getting teary eyed at a wedding. The best part about it is that the waterproof formula applies just like the original. I find for some reason that most mascaras that are offered in both an original and waterproof formula differ in consistency and brush. Not good in my book. Eyes to kill is your sexy little friend.


Remember ladies, never leave the house without at least 2 coats of mascara. You won't regret it.

Bisous Bisous,
