A Quick Review Of Mega Plush Mascara By Maybelline.

I saw this mascara on offer for £4.99 at boots so I thought why not!
I think mascara is a basic make up item, so here is my review on Mega Plush Mascara by Maybelline.

The Packaging.

I do Rather like the packaging, the POP of the turquoise goes well with the deep purple. It is a eye catching and positive colour. It brings a nice splash of colour to any make up bag! 

The Brush

One of the main selling points of this mascara was the flexible brush that makes it so that, when you apply the mascara, the brush bends with the lashes so you get a nice even, non-clumpy coat on your lashes.

This is quite a good idea of design, however in practice it's rubbish. It doesn't bend with your lashes, when you go to apply the mascara, you can't get the brush in between the lashes because it just bends off. Its so frustrating and annoying. you really have to dig it in to the roots of your lashes so you can get a good secure brush without it bending off the lashes.

The Results 

As you can see there is a distinct difference that this mascara has created. It definitely opens and brightens your eyes, but it takes a lot of effort with the stupid flexible brush. Overall I would give it a 6/10 seeing as it does give decent results but they are nothing special. The design of the brush fails completely and I would not buy this product again.

Sorry Maybelline, its just a bit crap!

Ink Me Up

Tattoos are getting more and more popular and well, I am hooked. I love them. They are beautiful tokens to carry with you for the rest of your life. They cannot be lost or stolen. They are yours to keep forever. Planning and choosing your tattoos is half the fun. These are the tattoos I want;

1) The Skeletons - I want these skeletons because, well I love skeletons! I love how they are so Gothic and jazzy. I wouldn't however get them on my fingers but maybe across my lower back or maybe just one on my inner, upper arm. There is no deep meaning behind these skeletons for me, I just love the way they look!

2) The Anchor - I love all things nautical. I loved my childhood holidays in Devon and Cornwall, day trips to Hastings and Brighton. Being by the sea is one of the most magical and precious things to me. This anchor just brings my memories of hazy summer evenings on the beach, ice creams, Salcombe high street, my fascination with fantasy underwater creatures all together in one little tattoo which I will probably place on my side thy.

3) Born This Way Unicorn - It's not secret. I love Lady Gaga. I want this tattoo, not so much as a fan tattoo but for its message. "Born this way" is an album, a song and a message that helped me through some difficult stages through school, and I hope it helps me through difficult stages still to come. So I want this tattoo to remind myself of my strength everyday.

4) An OM Symbol - My Mother grew up in India, so we have loads of Indian and Pakistani stuff dotted around our house like bookends in the shape of a small Indian man with ear stretchers carved out of wood ( I know right - So Hipster), A little Ganesh wall placement, Indian bells and just generally Indian looking nick nacks lying around the place. I want to get this symbol to remind me of my mother and her stories of India and also my interest in mediation and things like that.

5) An Alien Head - Because aliens are awesome.
