Hi Pretty,
I am such a sucker for eyelashes. I have been rotating lash lengthening mascaras, growth enhancing products, and now I'm acquiring more mascara than my short lashes can use.
To be honest, I never got the hang of Givenchy's version, but the idea behind it was good. But, I thought the longer bulb would be better so I ordered it and I cannot say it was the best bang for my buck since it's probably in customs, but from the revies I have read, it's not bad once you get the hang of it.
Good luck!
B.P.
Hey Gorgeous,
I have something I want to include in my blogs and they are going to be "bites." It's a cute spin on our theme which correlates to how I love black panthers but want to include more than panthers, so we have pumas, cougars, lions, kittens, cheetahs, et al. What would be better than to add a bite? Or bites will be tips for achieving, maintaining, or incorporating our physical, mental and spiritual health.
I am guilty of loving mascara, and having a fetish for eyelashes hence, my current research on growth products for lashes. I went to ULTA yesterday because I was researching the Peter Thomas Roth product for eyelash growth, a blog for another day. While the sales assistant was pushing the product, the voice in my head was speaking about lash healthy.
I think my obsession and research has me observing everything I do to my eyelashes and one of the epitome's has been the damage we do in the quest for beauty.
If you use mascara, especially waterproof mascara, you may want to consider conditioning your lashes. Sound silly? Well, mascara is an extension of your health and part of your health is maintenance. We maintain our hair on our head, but think of all the rubbing, tugging, washing and scrubbing we do to our eyes. We lose lashes, and they also have a growth cycle. Why is it we don't think to condition them as well?
Heated eyelash curlers sound like a recipe for split ends and other damage, not to mention if you are one of those who curl your lashes AFTER applying mascara? Or, if you use a blow dryer for heating your lash curler.
All it takes is a little Vaseline or petroleum jelly, jojoba, vitamin E or another oil along your eyelashes every night. What's more, some people have found Castor oil to help the condition of their eyelash and assist in making them appear longer. I can't report that to be proven; however, I also can't report it to be something to cause further harm. What is your opinion, this is interactive and I encourage your feedback, comments, and suggestions.
Stay Beautiful and love often,
B.P.
Hello Kitty, Hello World...
Yeah, that equaled EPIC FAIL, but that song is stuck in my head, darn you MAC. I digress.
Thankfully, I am great mates with the women at the ULTA two blocks from my house, and have them on speed dial. On Tuesdays and Thursdays they get their shipments and due stock and inventory very late. So, I like to test run makeup, but mascara is not something one should ever, ever, ever test in any form. Unless of course, you strike damaged inventory. Well, the product promises "Light-reflecting metallics and a hint of tint bring out your blues, browns,etc." The mascara is supposed to make your own eye color pop with the use of some special light reflecting tints and metallics. Well, maybe because my eyes are the darkest shade of brown, unlike Rihanna's hazel eyes, and I don't have that level of beauty on any external level, I didn't see any transformation. I tried standing under lights, taking a photo with a flash, but there was nothing *shrug*.
I do think this product may work for people with light colored eyes or very fair colored eyelashes, but don't expect to have your eyes have that spotlight effect in the photo with Rihanna. Sure, that's marketing, but there are some who happen to believe they will get what a product delivers.
By the way, Happy 21st Birthday to Rihanna, and shame on whomever leaked those photos and for anyone making a profit from it. Sad, sad, sad.
Meow for now,
B.P.
