Urban Decay Supercurl Curling Mascara ($20) A sculpting, curling, long-wearing mascara. In addition to holding curl all day, this mascara boasts incredible conditioning ingredients in its formula. Packed with glycoprotein for lash thickening, Moringa seeds to help with curl definition, and Meadowfoam seed oil and Shea Butter for moisturizing and smoothing, lashes get an extra nourishing boost with just one swipe.
My Thoughts:
Urban Decay’s Supercurl Curling Mascara is a very wet mascara. I’m not a big fan of it. The mascara didn’t curl my lashes like the name claimed it would do. Instead, it uncurled my curl. I’m guessing since it’s such a wet formula, it weighed down the lashes. Even with a curved mascara wand, my lashes still didn’t curl. However, it did lengthen my lashes. But still, length isn’t a good enough reason to like it if it doesn’t hold a curl like it’s suppose to. I have a feeling if your lashes are naturally curled, the mascara will work for you. It’s people with lashes that don’t curl naturally that are not going to like the mascara.

My hair has been feeling and looking flat lately. I think it’s because of the weather. Here’s what I do to combat flat hair and pump some volume into my hair.
If my hair is wet, I blow dry my hair upside down. This is usually the easiest and quickest way for me to get voluminous hair after I wash my hair. I just flip my hair upside and blow dry. I try to keep the airflow concentrated at the roots of my hair too.
If my hair is dry, I flip my hair upside down and spray some hairspray into my hair. Or I’ll just add some volumizing mousse. I found that mousse won’t weigh down your hair.

Too Faced LashGasm Mascara ($21) A voluptuous, fluffing mascara that conditions as it thickens to create dramatically long lashes with intense color. Lashgasm’s multiple rows of flexible-but-firm, molded bristles are designed with micro-hooks that grab each and every lash for a clump-free application. The vitamin-rich, creamy formula penetrates for high-color absorbency and exaggerated depth. Meadowfoam Seed Oil forms a protective barrier to lock in soothing emollients that promote long-term wear without drying or harming lashes. A moisturizing combination of Panthenol, Vitamins A & E, and Jojoba Seed Oil hydrates and soothes lashes to keep them soft, light, and flexible.
My Thoughts:
Too Faced LashGasm is a wet formula mascara that is suppose to thicken and lengthen your lashes. I really like this mascara because it does a great job of separating, lengthening, and adding a bit of volume to your lashes with no clumping. The mascara wand has comb-like teeth instead of bristles that grab onto your lashes and does a good job of coating each lash with mascara. I would’ve loved Too Faced LashGasm if the formula wasn’t so wet. It takes time to dry so you have to try your hardest not to blink right away or you’ll end up with mascara everywhere. However, I did notice that after each use the mascara formula would be less wet. I’m guessing this is because the formula is being exposed to the air, and the air is drying out the mascara. So I guess in the end it worked out. Overall, Too Faced LashGasm is a good mascara. I think it’s worth a try if you don’t mind the initial wet formula.

Conair Bun Maker ($3.49) Make a perfect hair bun every time with Conair’s new Bun Maker Style Kit. Just gather your hair in a ponytail, pull it through the hole in the Bun Maker, then spread your hair around the outside and secure with the included pins. The Bun Maker’s unique size and shape will make a perfect hair bun every time. Try it for yourself and see.
My Thoughts:
Yes! Finally an easy way to make a neat and perfect looking bun. The Conair Bun Maker comes with everything to help you create the perfect bun easily. The kit comes with bobby pins, a hair tie, and a bun maker. All you do is tie your hair into a ponytail, pull it through the bun maker, and wrap your hair around it until your hair covers the bun maker. Secure it with pins and you’re done. I did notice some potential problems that can occur. The first is if your hair is short. I can see it not working because you have to have enough hair to tie it into a ponytail and wrap it around the bun maker. Also if your hair is light colored, I have a feeling you’re going to have a difficult time hiding the bun maker since the bun maker is a dark color. Overall, I really liked the Conair Bun Maker. It’s a great, quick, and easy way to create buns.

I have a thing for thick, bold brows. I think it helps frame the eyes beautifully. Plus, I feel it gives the face a gorgeous classic look.
Mine aren’t the thickest or the boldest, but this is what I do to try to achieve the look!
