I absolutely love mascara! I don't know why I have such a fetish with it. I do not have the greatest lashes. They're short and like to stick straight out. As well as bundle up with each other. LOL! So I really have no idea what fascinates me about mascara. The only thing I can come up with is that, mascara has the power of making my short, staight, crazy lashes look decent. So when I saw this kit called Lashtastic on QVC a while back, I just couldn't help myself.
Isn't she beautiful!
Instead of trying all these mascaras out by myself, I thought I'd share them with ya'll. So I came up with this little series called "7 Days of Mascara". Corny, I know. But we all need a little corny in our lives right! (totally got that line from 'The Holiday'. Love that movie.)
Anyhoo, so today is day 1. And I chose Bare Minerals Lash Domination Volumizing Mascara to try out first. I actually cheated a little on this one and tried it out over this past weekend for my work Christmas party. I couldn't help myself. I had ordered TSV on QVC a week ago, which happen to be Bare Minerals, which happen to have this same mascara in it the kit. But, I did not wear it on my bottom lashes just to be on the safe side. Didn't want to look like a raccoon for the party. This is what the mascara looks like.
The small silver tube is the one you actually get in the kit.
The wand is a rubberized wand and the bristles swirl around it. I wasn't really sure how to apply this, so I kinda rolled it along my lashes. I'll have the video below so you can check that out. But I'm sure you can apply it like you normally would. I was just playing with the bristles.
I did find that that it gave me volume as well as length. Which it doesn't claim to do. The formula was a little on the dry side for me. I find a drier formula makes my difficult lashes, even more difficult. So I did have to come through them after applying my desired coats. As for as on my bottom lashes, it did smudge on me. So I won't be putting this on my bottom lashes anymore. But that's just me. If you are not a smudger, it'll work perfectly fine. Here's a few pics with the mascara on.
See. I don't have the best lashes, but I did like this mascara. I will be using it again. Just not on my bottom lashes. Sorry for the creepy eye pics by the way. It was late at night when I remembered having some pics might be useful for my blog. LOL!
I hope you liked this post and it gave you some insight on this particular mascara. If you are interested in this kit from QVC, you can check it out here.
Tune in tomorrow to see what mascara I try out next!
See ya'll then!
Lots of Love,
Aimee Lou
