I LOVE Mascara!!!!!!!!!!!



So I have been wanting to try this mascara for a couple weeks now. Being on sale at Ulta and having a 20% off card "why the heck not". It was about five bucks. If you look through my makeup, you would see a ridiculous amount of mascara. I've used some really awesome mascara and some really, really shitty (cough cough some Revlon mascara). First and foremost the claim dragged me in. Falsies!! Heck ya! Basically it's supposed to mimic false eyelashes. Next the packaging, fuschia and teal. Good combination. I love big mascara packages. I also like big wands. This wand is a little different. It is flat but wide....see picture.



Its still kind of hard to tell (I couldn't get a very good picture myself)
The color is very nice. I picked out the blackest black. Formula is a little wet when its first open. The next day it was a tad dryer (in a good way). I could coat this sucker on! It added some volume but not that much length. The "falsies" statement....well I didn't really feel like I had false eyelashes on.
Overall, I like this mascara. Its good for a drugstore product.



How cool is this hairstyle!

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri



I recently tried the Sally Hansen Insta-Dri anti-chip top coat. I must say that I'm pretty impressed and it was only 5.99. The instructions say to wait two minutes after applying your nail polish and then apply the top coat. In 30 seconds your polish is supposed to be dry. My polish was definitely dry. I don't know about you guys but I can't stand waiting for my nails to dry. 30 seconds later I lightly touched my nail and....wow no fingerprint mark. Even after washing my face and eating some food (rummaging in the kitchen), no marks were to be seen. Also, after a nights sleeps the polish did not smear. The only smudge was after I hit my hand on a door, and I hit it pretty hard. I wasn't mad, figured that would have happened without the topcoat. Another thing this product advertises is superior shine and chip resistance.



Hmmm what do you think about the shine? I think it looks pretty good. About the chipping. It started to chip after 24 hours only because I was giving myself a pedicure.

Do you like the color of my nails? It is China Glaze For Audrey, from a 2008 collection.



This is supposed to be similar to the Tiffany blue. I read because of copyright that China Glaze could not actually use the color. Oh well, it still rocks!! China Glaze has some great colors and most polishes have nail hardeners in them.

I decided to paint my thumb a different color.



This is Essence Pointbreak. It is a light gray color. Somewhat muted/pastel. I really like it. Until now I did not own a color like this.

Accutane 1 1/2 months in....

Ahhhhhhh!!! Holy dry lips. That's my worst side effect so far. So I completed my first month with no problems. The my derm doubled my dose. My lips have gotten way worse and my skin has majorly flared up. I knew this was going to happen. It still sucks though. Other than that it has not been that bad. Can anyone recommend a good chapstick??
