Product Review: Benefit Bad gal Lash

"Sexy, sultry, pure unadulterated black mascara for full, voluminous lashes. It's as BAD as you want to be! Famously big, bodacious brush coats lashes with our super black formula."--Benefit


Benefit Bad gal Lash
$19
Available at Sephora, Ulta,  and Benefit counters
8.5 g Net wt 0.3 oz


My mom gave me this mascara to try about 2 and a half months ago and I was really excited to try it because I love any volumizing mascaras. The first thing I noticed and instantly fell in love with, was the size of the brush. It's the largest mascara brush I've ever seen and used; which is great for achieving thick and bold lashes. The consistency of this mascara is dry and thick, which is great to really helps define your lashes and create a thicker lash line. The thing I dislike the most about this product is how fast the formula becomes flakey. By the end of the day I notice little flakes of mascara under my eyes :/ Which I really don't want from a high-end mascara! I also wish Benefit would have created more colors of this mascara, because I know some people may prefer brown mascaras over black. But over all I can say I would consider re-purchasing this product because it does do a great job making my lashes look fuller and bold. :)

First Product Review: Naked Palette by Urban Decay



So, I recently purchased the Naked Palette by Urban Decay and I can already tell you it's a new "holy grail" product for me. The palette comes with 12 eye-shadows, Virgin, Sin, Naked, Sidecar, Buck, Half Baked, Smog, Darkhorse, Toasted, Hustle, Creep, and Gunmetal.


The palette is $48, which is actually a pretty good deal considering they give you the same amount of product as an individual eye shadow from Urban Decay which costs $17! It also includes a travel size Urban Decay Primer Potion as well as a shadow brush. What I love most about the palette, besides the fact that all the colors are very pigmented, is that it doesn't just consist of browns. They include a gorgeous sparkly black (Creep) and metallic grey (Gunmetal). I also love how they have red-toned browns as well as yellow based browns. I would definitely suggest this product for anyone who enjoys creating neutral looks as well as a smokey eye using dark browns and black.
