Update/Swatch/Whatevah

Remember when I ranted about the oh so great Sally Hansen Insta-Dri nail polish? Well, here are some pictures from day 3.


                                                                

Peel-o-rama!   





    
 
Amazingggggg




But, enough of that, let's move on to better things. Like OPI's Meet you on the Star Ferry:



No flash.





Flash ON.


I know they look like two completely different colors, but that's where the beauty lies. Oh, and the black thing I'm holding is a new scarf I bought from Forever 21. I love sparkly things and knew I had to have this in my collection (I think this is the 20th scarf I own.) Weird that it looks brighter in the picture without flash.


Since my birthday was earlier this month, I went to Sephora to pick up my beauty insider gift. It was a set that contained an eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara.










The eyeshadow color is aspen summit No 23. It has a pearl finish and is pretty pigmented. The picture above was one swipe.



Close up of the texture.




The eyeliner is in #11 Silver green.




One swipe across my hand.





And lastly, the lash plumping mascara. I haven't tried this yet. Maybe I'll take some pictures in the near future.

CoverGirl Lash Blast Waterproof Mascara

I bought this mascara after hearing so many good reviews on YouTube and so I decided to give it a try. I really like this mascara because it does not clump and is also able to hold my curl. The wand was a bit scary at first because it doesn't look like your normal wand. The bristles are made of a rubbery material and tapers at the tip until the bristle becomes a tiny nub. The application of this mascara is pretty smooth and does a pretty good job at lengthening the lashes. Lash Blast is advertised as providing "a blast of lush, volumized lashes" but for me, the volumizing aspect of this mascara is not very good.

At the price of $8.99 at Duane Reade and CVS, I think it is a worthy purchase and I may purchase this again.
