My holy grail Mascara'S

Mascara!
Hmph...well we all know it is tricky to find that PERFECT mascara.
Many times I have trashed a tube of mascara because it didn't live up to my expectations.
Seriously...all I want is no clumps, no flakes and all my lashes to look FABULOUS
 and not have to sell one of my children to pay for it.
Not so much to ask for right?!?

Trust...when I say "I HAVE TRIED THEM ALL."
From Mary Kay, Avon, Mac, Lancome, to Wet N Wild.

I am a very high maintenance mama.
I do not just use ONE mascara brand on my lashes.
Yes I use up to THREE at one time.
Shake your head...I know...
Sadly I still have not found ONE mascara that does it ALL for me.

Over the last month I started using Physicians Formula Organic Wear Mascara.
I have the Jumbo Lash (green tube) and the Natural Lash (black tube).
Both of these mascaras are FABULOUS. I can almost say...
these come to being pretty close to everything I want in ONE mascara. Almost...
The wand is AMAZING! No clumps, the perfect amount of product comes out and I never have to wipe off the wand because of excess. I did have to get used to the packaging.
The little "tail" on the wand was weird to get used to holding.
Once I got the hang of it, my little paws rest perfectly in the nook during application.
I do not find fallout at the end of the day, no smudging and my lashes are not heavy.



Loreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara.
This mascara gets a lot of good reviews on most beauty blogs.
 I myself really love it. I used it along with my Physicians Formulas.
The wand itself sometimes can gets a little goopy...lots of product can come off,
but I just wipe it away. This mascara does the trick when it comes to adding the major volume we are looking for to achieve the "FULL LASHES".
As you can see my tube has some wear and tear...I use it everyday.



Maybelline The Falsies Volum Express (old faithful)
I am sure y'all have tried this. I have been using this formula for years it seems. I really love it. Although it has fallen from my #1. Just for the fact that there are better formulas out there. I do still really love the formula and the amount of volume it gives my lashes.
Reasoning why I always repurchase it.



Maybelline Mega Plush Volum Express *NEW* This Mascara is fairly new to the makeup displays. I think it came out right at the beginning of summer. It has taken me awhile to get used to it. At first I HATED it...yes, hated. I couldn't stand the wand and I felt it didn't live up to all the hype. I MADE myself continue to use it. Guess what...I actually really like it. I like the way it separates all my lashes. The product does not build a goopy mess on the wand like the Falsies formula.
I find myself reaching for this mascara a lot more.



Since I have ranted on how much I LOVE Physicians Formula Mascara, I thought I would show you my lashes before and after I have used a couple coats of ONLY Physicians.

Before

After: also added winged liner
