Benefit Roller Lash Mascara

So I received this mascara in I believe my Sample Society box.
I have been hearing a lot about this mascara, Everywhere! So why not do a review myself.


I must say I am rather impressed with it. 


The wand is not something I am usually a fan of. But I kind of liked it this time. The formula is really nice, goes on smooth and does not flake! It also lasted all day! 

Now this mascara is suppose to give you lift up your lashes and give them a lasting curl. So not 100% true. It does give you a bit of a curl, but not something to write home about. 

Now I have heard this but have not tried it myself, You are suppose to apply this mascara and then do another coat of a different kind. Yeah why on earth am I going to use 2 different mascaras? Like I said, I have heard other people say this. 

A ton of reviews I am seeing, people are not even close to applying this correctly. When you apply mascara you want to coat your lashes. So when you are applying, you want to wiggle your wand into your lashes.... Wiggle, such a technical term... This will help lift them, and give you more of an even coat. 

All in all this is a nice mascara...I really do enjoy the formula...Does it give me amazing lashes, well No...Is it worth the money...Not really...But I do like it...


What do you think? Have you had a chance to try this mascara? Any tips on how to give nice, curled lashes? 




BirchBox March

This post is going to be a quick one. Sorry! I haven't had a chance to try anything out of this box. Bummer I know. I swear when I receive my next box, I will do a much better review!


So this month I have received 5 items:

1. It's a 10® Miracle Leave-In Product
I have no clue what this is! Ok I had to look...It's a leave in conditioner. I probably will not be using this. My hair tends to get oily all on its own, let alone add something like this to it!

2. Elite Therapeutics Rosemary Eucalyptus Body Crème
I did give this a try while I was working on this post, OMG it stinks!! But it did leave my hands nice and soft. But the smell seriously! I can not use this!

3. BioRepublic Skincare Green Tea Detox Mask Set
Ok I love masks, I can't wait to give these a try! 

4. Paula's Choice Resist Moisture Renewal Oil Booster
So this is suppose to be for super dry skin. Can't wait to try this! 
5. Jelly Pong Pong GLOW GETTER Polish 
I Love getting nail polish! I do not care for the color at all, but I will have to see how it looks painted on. 

Ipsy March

Hello Everyone! I'm so sorry I have not done a blog post in a while! I have actually been really sick and am just now able to get back online. Anyway, let me get this review going!


So this past months Ipsy bag was Floral Fantasy. The bag is ok, I don't know kind of reminds me of something my grandmother would like. 

Inside I received 5 samples: 

1. NYX Cosmetics Butter Lipstick
I was so excited to receive this! I have been wanting to try one of NYX lipsticks for a while now. Unfortunately the color is not even close to being something I would wear. Bummer! But I did wear it for a while, and it's a nice lipstick. Seems to stay put for a while and does stain your lips! 

2. Dr. Brandt Skincare, Pores no more anti aging mattifying lotion
Ok this stuff pretty much smells like Vicks. I can feel it on my skin, so it's not something I care to use! 

3. Pur Lisse Beauty, Soy milk cleanser and Makeup remover
Humm soy milk....So this is ok..It does remove some of my makeup, but it's not something I need to run out and buy!

4. VINTAGE by Jessica Liebeskind, Illuminating Face Highlighter 
Nope, Not even close to being interested in this!

5. Boo-Boo Cover-Up
The name is just funny..But of course the shade is off. So I can't give my real opinion! Darn Ipsy...


So what did you think of your Ipsy bag? I thought mine was ok. I really wish the Butter Lipstick was a better shade for me, and the Makeup remover was nice.
