Review: Maybelline One by One Mascara

        


Hey guys!!! Yesterday I was at the drugstore and came across this beautiful pink tube of goodness called Maybelline one by one mascara! I had to pick it up since I already ran out of my last one. Like most Maybelline mascaras i was expecting the same great quality that most of them have, well this one met up to my expectations and is even better than  other ones i have previously tried!
 
                  here's what it looks like:
                                     *yes the tube may be amazing but wait till you see the best part!
                                             ( oh and i have the washable formula in very black.)
      * the mascara wand , the wand is very bendy with rubber bristles, which was kinda weird for me since im more used to the normal bristles that i can only compare it to a pipe cleaner haha! you know what i mean.) And did i mention that inside the tube has kind of a component that keeps an excess amount of  the formula off the brush so ur mascara won't be as clumpy!

                                          Before:
                                              * aww my poor lashes without mascara.=(
                   
 mascara without the support of an eyelash curler:

           On the packaging it says while using this mascara , not to let it dry before adding a second coat to keep it from clumping.Rather you apply all the coats desired when its still wet.

Mascara  prior to using an eyelash curler:
               *oh gosh my bottom lashes are scary LOL! anyways you get a little more length with the eyelash curler of course.

        Over all i really like this mascara. I am happy to make the four month commitment with this one, its a keeper! Thanks for reading, follow or stay tuned i have a makeup tutorial and a haul coming  up soon you wont wanna miss out!

Review:maybelline eyeshadow duo in Browntones

  
  •  A couple of weeks ago at Target I stumbled upon the collection of Maybelline eyeshadow duos.. all the other colors were great but this one stood out to me the most. Its the Maybelline Chic Naturals duo in  7D Browntones. I bought it for about 5 dollars which is pretty cheap! Its really amazing, I've been wearing it for over a  week now non-stop!




                                                          maybelline 70D Browntones


  • The first shade is a couple shades darker than my skin tone {which is a mac NC25} and it a perfect every day all over lid color. Its almost an exact dupe to Urban Decay naked! I also heard it was a close dupe for mac omega. Its mostly matte when applied to skin which is always a plus if your not much of a sparkle person.



                                                    pretty pigmented if you ask me :) <- dorky smile
                                                           Urban decay naked dupe


  • The second color is just your everyday brown, with a matte finish when applied. I  found that its a nice crease and lower lash line color. I've also found it to be a great eyebrow filler,so its very versatile.The thing about this duo is that the 2 colors are so simple that you probably already have one just like it in your own makeup collection . In fact I found the darkest one to be a close dupe for Urban Decay Buck {buck is slightly warmer though}.

                                                            2nd color swatch
                                               See Buck is kind of a warmer-caramel color



Over all the colors are nice and neutral.The only downfall is that you might already have colors similar to this,but if you love these colors, the more the better right!  The texture is nice and butter-like, its one of my favorites and if I were a teacher I would grade this duo an ha ha!.
