Benefit Roller Lash Mascara Review and Pictures

Hey guys! Today I am reviewing the new Roller Lash mascara by Benefit. Sephora's website says it will create long lashes while curling them. First of all, the packaging is super adorable. It is a black handle and the top is a pale peach which a wide fishnet design. I love it. It's not too heavy either. The wand has very tiny silicone bristles and is slightly curved. I like how tiny it is because you can get to the very root of your lashes without the mascara smudging everywhere. Even though the bristles are tiny, I feel like they have a good grip on your lashes as you apply the product.

The actual formula performs very well. If you have ever used the more popular mascara 'They're Real' by Benefit, you would know how wet and goopy that formula is. This one is also wet, but is nowhere near as goopy and messy. When you apply this mascara, it will instantly cling to your lashes and stay there. It does not smudge at all, it's great! After all day wear, there was no mascara smudges or flakes under my eyes, which is unusual. I was a bit worried it would be hard to come off, but it wasn't! I used Benefit's 'They're Real' cream makeup remover and it just slid right off. It literally took half the time to take off this mascara than it does with other ones. The color is also a dark inky black that makes your lashes look thick and lush. It really curls by lashes and holds the curl. In the pictures I took, I did not curl my lashes with a lash curler. After two coats, it did make my lashes a bit clumpy, so after I took the pictures, I did have to separate my lashes with a lash comb. It lengthened my top lashes quite a bit. but the real length was in my bottom lashes! They looked amazing. I highly recommend you try this mascara. If you would, you can for $24 here.

Diorshow Mascara Review and Pictures

Hey guys! I'm here today with a review of Diorshow mascara in black, which is one of Dior's most popular mascara. I've heard many amazing things about this product and am always looking for the next great mascara. The brush is enormous, a lot bigger than your run of the mill mascara. But I really like that because I feel it really coats each lash. Every time I pull it out of the tube it has a glob of product on the end of the wand, so I have to wipe it off on the tube, but that's no biggy. The formula is not too wet, but not too dry. It's the perfect middle. It curls my lashes and gives them volume and length. I don't know why I've waited so long to try this product. It doesn't even flake off during the day. I seriously have no complaints on this mascara. It is worth every single penny. I urge you to give it a go. If you would like to purchase it, you can here for $25.

Eye Dust - $7
The color I received is Volcano and I would describe it as a dark burgundy with lots of shimmer. Which is not a bad thing! The pigmentation of this color blew me away. The powder is incredibly soft and blends like no other. The color also makes my green eyes pop! I seriously want all of them. You can purchase here.






Glitter - $7
The color I received is AK 47 which is a black with rainbow glitter. Did your heart just flutter, because mine did. This color is SOOO pretty. I love that you can use their glitters on your eyes, face, lips, hair, anywhere! I cannot wait to use this under a black base. You can purchase here.

Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Black Review and Swatches

Hey guys! I'm here today with a review of Stilas Liquid Eyeliner in Black. This eyeliner is a felt tip and incredible. This is the holy grail of eyeliners. I might never buy another again. Oh, who am I kidding, of course I will. This product stayed on ALL day with zero smudges. The pen is so easy to use because it's really thin. You can build your line from thin to thick. It dries to a light sheen that looks like baby angles kissed your eyelids. I literally want every single color. Which, by the way, they have 8 different colors. For $20, buy one herehere, or here. Now onto pictures!

Winter Wonderland Makeup Tutorial

Hey guys! I'm here today with a winter themed makeup tutorial. For me, this look was just for fun. I wouldn't wear it everyday, but I might for a party! So grab those frosty blue shadows shoved in the back of your makeup drawer and lets get started!

First, start off with a clean lid and add a sparkly white cream shadow to just the lid. I used Maybelline Color Tattoo in Too Cool.



Then add a white shadow over it. I used Sick of Swimmin' from the Ariel palette from Sephora because it is a white with a blue duochrome. It's gorgeous.


Next, blend a bright matte blue in the crease. I used a random blue color from my BH 88 Matte palette.


Then put a darker blue in the crease. I used Blue Lagoon from the Ariel palette. Make sure it's not too dark.


Then add your highlight to the brow bone and inner corner. I used a white glitter bomb shadow.


Next add black liner to the upper lashes and the darkest blue shade to the lower lashes. I used Maybelline Gel Liner and Blue Lagoon again.



Finally I added mascara and went over the black liner with a glitter liner. I used ELF Mascara and Startdust glitter liner.
