Review: Ipsy Glambag for December

Jan 03

NYE kicks

For NYE we stayed in and just had dinner at my aunt’s house. I was going to pair my black cardigan with sequined pockets (sorry no pic) with some high heels. But eh..I was going to my aunt’s..no need to be wearing fancy heels. I opted for my converse instead. As did my entire family. I bought the twins new pairs over the Christmas break. I realize now why they were cheap. Sure they’re slip ons…but the knots on the ties do come off. Nonetheless they still look cute on them. I also bought them a new pair of white ones but scared for them to wear it, haha. It’s too new…too white! Maybe for their birthday in a few weeks. ;)

Review: Neutrogena - Healthy Volume® Mascara Regular

My holy grail mascaras have been from Maybelline. Particularly the Falsies and Mega Plush. I’ve ruled out any Cover Girl mascaras as none had any real pay off for volume or lengthening.

I’m a follower of makeupbytiffanyd and in her vlog of December favorites or 2012 favorites, she mentioned Neutrogena Healthy Volume Mascara. It’s not a new product or anything and she did mention it was one she had used years ago in college. She showed the brush and I was intrigued by it as it’s similar to Diorshow’s (which used to be my go-to mascara but the hefty price left me to go drugstore). So I decided to pick up a tube at my local Wal-mart and it was going for about $6.47 I believe.

I’ve tried it the past few days and I like it. I like that the formula isn’t too dry but not too wet either. It’s build-able with out causing your lashes to lump or give you that spidery eyelash look. I haven’t seen it flaking or smudging. It’s a great everyday mascara which I’ll probably start using it as and leaving my Maybelline mascaras for days I want fuller lashes.

Here is the product description off their site:

Healthy Volume® Mascara creates beautifully full and healthy lashes with a revolutionary sweep of the wand.

This lash-enhancing mascara instantly builds lash volume by 400%. The patent-pending formula with a touch of olive oil penetrates and helps plump the core of each and every lash. The Visible Volume Brush coats and builds even the smallest lashes with rich, volume-building color. No clumps, smudging or flaking!

Healthy Volume® mascara rinses clean with any Neutrogena® makeup remover or with soap and water. Get beautiful, conditioned and volumized lashes with the sweep of a wand.

Conditioning formula with a touch of olive plumps lashes from the inside out
Super-sized Visible Volume brush quickly coats each lash with rich, volume-building color
No clumps, smudges or flakes

Happy New Year!

I can’t believe it’s been over a year now that Rachel and I started this blog! I thought I’d start off the new year with things I did get. Nothing crazy though and nothing off my wishlist except one.

The hubby surprised me with some Ray Ban Wayfarers I had been wanting for awhile but could never take the plunge and by them. He also was sweet and picked me up a new Vera Bradley lunch bag from the twins.

My wonderful mother gifted me with: a Gucci cross-body bag, an infinity scarf, a coach wristlet which I exchanged for a bigger wrist wallet to fit my phone, a Michael Kors wristlet and randomnly she gave my brother and I SebaMed Lotion, lol (knows me too well. I have eczema.) As for all the wristlets…I commute using Metro from time to time so I like to use a wristlet wallet to throw in my workbag.

As far as off my wishlist, my sweet mare was too kind and got me my first ever Urban Decay palette for Christmas. THANK YOU RACHEL!
