Hello my lovelies!
You'd be forgiven for being a little confused when this eventually pops up on your dashboard, I know my posting has been...sporadic to say the least over the last few months! I'm trying to get Jon to take photos of me when we leave the house for work now so I at least have photos to post on here. I also thought I'd include a mini review in today's post as it's a product I really think worth talking about!
The product in question is the new mascara by Benefit, named They're Real because it's meant to give you false-looking lashes...now I'm going to be honest. It does NOT give me mock-falsies. But it is a bloody good mascara nonetheless and may even have ousted the Chanel Inimitable Intense as my favourite!
In these photos I've admittedly boosted it a little bit by adding Vaseline to condition my lashes before applying mascara (a trick I learned from Klee's blog because her lashes always look amazing) but I have not curled them (I ...forgot...again) and they stayed looking like this ALL day. For this reason alone I would recommend this mascara as all others droop after a few hours' wear. Yes, the price is a wee bit hefty at £18.50, but it's definitely worth it in my opinion!
I've also included my first outfit post in MONTHS. My camera settings badly need tweaking because they're rubbish at the moment, I accidentally set it to auto while at Disney and consequently all my photos are somewhat out of focus! Here I'm wearing a pretty comfy, boring outfit for work, with tunic and leggings from Dorothy Perkins, teamed with my new suede boots (ebay!) and a lovely cosy cardigan from H&M.
I can't believe how cold it's got now! Right after this photo was taken I ran indoors and got my mac to keep me warm, but I was still cold! Luckily I have a gorgeous winter coat I can't wait to show you as I've coveted it since last year and finally, FINALLY found it on ebay! Is anyone else as obsessed with ebay as I am? Or am I abnormal? Haha!
xoxo
The mascara looks. I don't usually put mascara on because I tend to rub my eyes a lot, and my lashes are naturally curly. Anyway nice pictures!

I love this purple top - it really sets your eyes off!
ReplyDeleteBeware of ebay - it is a slippery slope! Once bitten forever smitten. You know you are an addict when you've bookmarked the 'Topshop' and 'Warehouse' search catagories :) xxx
