Mascara Empties (high ends + drug stores)

I went through my makeup stash and cleaned up a lot of old/used up mascaras...Alot of them is not worth mentioning as I do not recommend them at all.

But I will highlight a few that I think it's worth mentioning.

1. Benefit - They're Real : This mascara has so much hype over the internet for a couple of years. I think this is a decent mascara as it gives good length and somewhat good volume. I would say it does a better job at lengthening than volumizing. It holds curls well and it does not smudge. The best feature of this mascara is that it separates the lashes quite well and does not give a spidery finish to the lashes.

2. Lancome Hypnose Drama: Personally, this is not one of my favorite. One being very pricey, second being nothing special about the finish it offers. A pro of this mascara is that it gives good length, however, if you apply more than 2 coats, it'll make the lashes very spidery and clumpy.

3. Maybelline the Falsies Volume Express: Do not recommend this as it does nothing to my lashes...It has small fibres in the wand, but it doesn't do much in adding up volume or length.

Review: Marc Jacob's Perfection Powder Featherweight Foundation

Deng Deng Deng! I placed an order through Sephora.ca about a month ago, as I was very interested in trying Marc Jacob's new makeup line. I pretty much made the order when the line was first launched, so I had no idea which will be hits or misses. The one product I wanted to try out was the powder foundation - Let's talk about the packaging... Like every other reviewers, Marc Jacob definitely did a great job in designing his products. He differentiated his products by rounding the 4 edges on the side, while keeping the traditional black sleek case trend. He also got a little silver push button at the side, which adds a little bit of classiness to the look. Once the compact is opened, you can see a huge mirror on the lid, and because of this, the weight of the foundation is relatively heavier compared to other compact foundations. Now on to the product - The color I got is 300 Beige (I am normally a shade 30 in Dior/Chanel foundations)...

RevlonColorBurst Lip Butters - Peach From Top to bottom: 1. Lilac Pastel 2. Strawberry Fraise 3. Hot Pink Rose Vibrant Overall, I think the color payoff for these lipsticks + lip glosses are very pigmented. But I find that the lip butters are quite drying after 30min or so. I can see my lips start to dry up alot more if I wear these lip butters on a daily basis. The lip glosses are very opaque and the colors are really pretty, however, it doesn't last long...
