One of my earliest memories was playing with my cousin’s makeup. I would hide in the bathroom and paint my face and put on layers of mascara and inevitably get in a lot of trouble. As a small child, I can remember being in tow when all of the females would make the visit to the Merrill Norman salon. I would watch in envy while their faces where painted in some hot pink mask. I have no idea what that pink stuff did, but I wanted my face covered in it.

As I progressed to a teenager, with a heavy hand on the eye shadow, my cousin took me to the department store for my first makeover. I have been hooked ever since! I literally cannot pass a makeup counter without trying or buying something. My two biggest obsessions are the longest lasting lipstick and the mascara which will give me long thick lashes. Skin care and anti-frizz hair products follow closely after.

I am a sucker for fancy packaging and the newest, best and so-called promised product that will turn me into one of the glamorous beauties in the latest fashion magazine. Unfortunately for me, most products don’t live up to the hype promised by the advertisement.

Therefore, I’ve decided, along with the help of some of my not so obsessive friends and family to post products that we tried so you can decide if you want to spend your money!

New REVLON Products

Revlon has come out with five new mascaras.  Since I want length and volume, I purchased the Volume+Length Magnified with my CVS 25% off coupon.  The cost averages $8.99 at drugstores. Can't say it did anything for me.  Three coats to even see a difference in my lashes.  Not doing it for me!



I do like the Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor.  It is a nice alternative to a gloss, which I usually don't use because they are so gooey.  Comes in 8 different shades and is $8.99 in drugstores.
