Mascara is a girls best friend and I have two products to review.

L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Voluminous Mascara & L'Oreal Voluminous Primer


So I was pretty skeptical about using a primer and a non-waterproof mascara. I am a 100% waterproof mascara kind of girl just because it is fool proof, non-smudging, and lasts through whatever life hands you (including crazy Texas weather patterns). 

After spending a couple of weeks trying these two products out together and using the primer with other mascaras (such as L'Oreal Miss Manga Rock and L'Oreal Miss Manga) I've come to a decision....I LOVE THESE!

Carbon Black Voluminous Mascara
-For a non-waterproof mascara this formula holds up really well meaning no flakes on the cheeks and no transfers to the lid
-It is a really wet formula so be careful during application
-Makes the lashes super dark
-Overall 10/10

Voluminous Primer
-It's a white primer
-Build-able (I like only doing 2 coats so there is little chances of clumping)
-Makes the lashes noticeably longer
-It's also nice that it works with different mascaras and not just the Voluminous line


Below is a picture with the products:

Let me know what your thoughts are on these products!!!

There is an entire section of Physicians Formula cosmetics at the dollar tree!!! Go and try these products out! Their company has some great cosmetics that are designed for sensitive skin and even some of these products are designated as Organic.

ULTA Glitter Eye Top Coat

PUT A RING ON IT
Silver base with silver glitter.


FAIRY PRINCESS
Very pretty pink with green, blue, and silver glitter.

I bought these when Ulta had a buy 1 get 1 free on ulta products. They usually retail for $8. These are super glittery and perfect. Warning: there will be fallout but try spraying your brush with setting spray, then dip the brush into the glitter and then place on your eyelid. I personally use fairy princess a lot more because I do a lot of neutral browns and pinks for an everyday look.

It's a lot easier to deal with glitter that packed in a pan like this rather than loose glitter in a container. Loose glitter can get very messy VERY fast.
If you are going for a fast all over application, it may just be easier to use your fingertips rather than opting for a brush. I find it easier to control the saturation of glitter and the placement by using my ring finger or my pointer finger.

When working with glitter just take your time and have fun!!

These are also great to use during cheer competitions or for theater makeup.
