L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Mascara Review

Hello there.  It's the weekend, yay!  Although I'm performing tomorrow afternoon I'm still enjoying the relaxing feeling of knowing it's Saturday night already and I don't have to get up as early tomorrow.
A little while ago I picked up the L'oreal False Lash Telescopic Mascara in the sale.  I think I had read it was good on line before and I wanted to give it a go.  Quite soon after purchasing it my other two mascaras both dried out so I ended up using this every day much earlier than I had expected to.

The mascara wand is not a full brush like I am used to but more like plastic combs placed around the head of the wand.  I've always avoided buying this kind of wand in the past because I didn't think I would get on with it but thought this time I'd give it a chance.  It took a little getting used to as I have to make sure I'm using the wand with the spokes in the right place on the lashes to coat and separate them.  Using the wand in the wrong place can just coat the lashes with the formula too heavily.
The formula does seem to do the trick in terms of lengthening the lashes.  I also seem to be able to get a nice curl in my lashes out of it too.  It takes a little more work than I'm used to but I am satisfied with the result.

I don't think it's a bad mascara at all although I will have to see if once this runs out I would buy it again or go back to a mascara with a full brush on the wand like I'm used to.

Till next time

The Balm Mascara in Cheater Review

Hi!  I have decided to review some products I've been using as I'm always looking for honest product reviews before I spend my precious money on things so it's time to give something back :)

I recently bought The Balm Mascara in Cheater.  I was looking for something a little less thick for everyday wear than the Bourjois one I'd been using.

The brush and the bristles looked smaller which I like and the formula didn't seem too thick so I decided to give it a go.  I try to avoid products containing Parabens which this mascara is free of and it was also on sale which is good as otherwise this brand would be priced higher than what I would normally pay for cosmetics.

I'm happy with the consistency, hardly any clumps at all when I apply it.  I love the retro packaging.  All in all I'm very happy with this mascara and will be using it for every day wear as planned!
