Lashes.


Remember this post? Who doesn't love to talk about mascara? :) We all know how much I've loved my MAC ZoomLash. I've used it for years. Or at least ever since it came out, & before that I was using MAC's other mascara. Anyway- Tara called the other day & convinced me that I had to step outside of my comfort zone. Obediently, I quickly went off to Candy Land {Sephora} & picked up this super-80's looking tube of mascara. I tried it out today & the first word out of my mouth was, "whoa". I'm completely sold, with a resolve to spread the good news.
.
While I don't generally like the use of the word "gal" {just one of those weird things that bug me- I prefer "lady", "woman", "girl" or just about anything else}, this mascara truly rocks. The brush is ridiculously huge, but delivers a completely smooth, lush application of mascara without any clumps. I look like I'm wearing false lashes, without looking like I'm wearing gobs of makeup. The price tag isn't quite as nice as MAC, but it's so worth it.

Oh Mascara, I do love you so.

Does it separate well? I don't really care if mascara lengthens or thickens my lashes, I just want them to be well separated!

Heidi- yes. My lashes are perfectly separated today. :)

I'm SO not a thickening person, but I like lengthening and separation. And this morning was that morning where my mascara had gone bad and I almost went crazy even trying to use it. I need a replacement stat.

You always have the good beauty buys.

p.s.. love the new look. I know I'm a week late with the header, but the new york sign is back again, right?!

Remember I told you I had this one? I really loved it in the beginning, but it kind of didn't last that long for me.

I still like the MAC one.

Oh, I totally forgot Missy.

We'll see how it works. I know that I still love MAC, so if it putters out for me too, I can always go back. :)

And Kelli- this isn't super thick. It's definitely not clumpy, but I know that you always have really natural looking/pretty lashes, so maybe this is too much for you. I need lots of help. :) And I keep messing with the header... still not quite satisfied, and yes, the NYC sign is new (similar to an older one I used, but not quite the same). I need a graphic designer.

You totally read my mind. I was going to post about mascara myself with a request for recommendations. I have never found a mascara that suits me which always leads me back to the drugstore for that ever-so-famous pink and green tube.

I will definitely have to give this a try. Thanks!

I think I felt the same way you did before I tried it, but this is now my hands-down all-time favorite mascara.
