Mascara to Love!

While chatting it up with my good friend Ana G., I couldn't take my eyes off her pretty lashes. So long, dramatic, and each lash stood on their own confidently. I HAD to ask her what she was using. She said mascara by L'Oreal and emailed me the 2 models by L'Oreal - Volumnious and Double Extend. So far these 2 are the best mascaras I have used and I'm including the Diorshow (see pasts Blog) and what's best is the cost is under $10.00. Not to put down Diorshow, but I have to lay on a couple of layers before I get the length I want, but with L'Oreal Volumnious I achieve it in 2 strokes. With the L'Oreal Double Extend after one stroke of this magic wand my lashes got plumpy.

Volumnious has that dark edge look yet perfect for daily wear, and the Double Extend is perfect for that 'come-hither' flirty lashes. Try it, I swear you'll love how gorgeous they'll make your eyes feel.

To kick it up a notch, team it up with a lash curler. I will post my fave lash curler tool in a later blog so please come back.

L'Oreal Volumnious $7.49 at Walgreens

L'Oreal Double Extend $8.99 at Duane Reade (my pick)

Color of Hope - Because I'm Worth It

For the past decade L'Oreal Paris has been launching fundraiser initiatives for the cure of ovarian cancer. Currently there is no screening to detect ovarian cancer, so L'Oreal wants to help women understand the disease and educate about the signs and symptoms.

Part of this year's initiative includes the latest collection Color of Hope cosmetic bag which include 2 sets of quad eyeshadows, 2 lipsticks, and a lipgloss valued at $50. The shades have a nice subtle hue, perfect for year round use. For each purchase they donate 20% towards research on ovarian cancer. So far they've raised over $14 million for research and awareness.

Check out L'Oreal website for more information, and don't forget to watch videos interviews with celeb spokespersons like Kerry Washington and Eva Longoria Parker.

Color of Hope cosmetic bag $25 to order call (888) 270- 7743
