So I’m a long-term Clinique fan and very open about it. Every time they launch a new product, I’m always surprised that they can actually impress me even more. It’s kind of ridiculous actually. I tried out the new High Impact Curling Mascara and my mouth literally dropped. Not only does the wand have a fun shaped brush (it’s crooked) but it really does make a “high impact,” making the name uber appropriate. The verdict? No smudging, flaking and came off pretty easy with warm water. Approved.

Maybelline Great Lash BIG
So I’m always honest when people ask me about mascara and I’m even more honest when I tell them how I feel about the cult-favorite, Maybelline Great Lash- a product that has been around forever, won multiple beauty awards and used by many makeup artists…I think it sucks. I tried it once back in college and I was left with spidery eyelashes that flaked off after only a few hours. NO. However, since I do love Maybelline as a brand, I decided to give their new Great Lash BIG version of the mascara a whirl and I absolutely LOVE it. This is the stuff mascara should be made of, people. And, I’m especially glad that Maybelline decided to keep BOTH versions because the original was, and still is, quite popular. Great Lash BIG left my eyelashes thicker and bolder with no globs or flaking. Love it.

Stila Black Diamond Mascara
So I review mascaras a lot and sometimes I feel that every time I try a new mascara, I think it’s even better than the last. This certainly proves true again with Stila’s Black Diamond Mascara. I was intrigued when I read about the product and how it’s infused with genuine black diamond powder. I mean, what girl wouldn’t like that? What does the black diamond powder do? It lenghtens and adheres to lashes and results in unusually soft, plush lashes. Plus, it’s paraben-free. Amazing.

Physician’s Formula Organic Wear Mascara
So lately I’m obsessing over Physician’s Formula. I’ve posted about two other products that I absolutely adore and this mascara doesn’t put either of them to shame. Physician’s Formula Organic Wear Mascara is the first ever 100% natural origin mascara where 100% of the total ingredients are of natural origin AND even the mascara brush and packagine are 100% recyclable. Worried that because this product is so natural it might not work well? I worry about that too usually but I’m telling you, this mascara is awesome- even better than some of the non-natural brands that I’ve tried.

CoverGirl LashBlast Length Mascara
So I pretty much love every CoverGirl mascara that I’ve ever tried. Somehow they manage to continuously outdo themselves every time they introduce a new mascara into the mass cosmetics market. With that said, their latest, LashBlast Length, gives you ultra-long lashes that won’t break or flake off for all day impact. The super-length brush is their longest brush ever and gives you expert precision and control that really helps to create individualized, clump-free lashes…the brush is seriously nuts…it has over 450 fine bristles (20% more than LashBlast Volume)!
