Review: Loreal

Hi loves! Guess what today is? Yes... time for another mascara review!! I recently bought the Loreal Paris Double Extend mascara after getting an eye infection from my Maybelline The Rocket. Read that review here:

This was a pretty good mascara so check out my pros and cons below.

Pros: This mascara is really good and lengthening and good at thickening. If you have sparse lashes I would not recommend this, however if you have shorts lashes I would totally recommend it. (It is only $SIX dollars).

Cons: I cannot really tell if it holds a curl, so if that is your main focus when buying mascara, I would recommend this, but if you want to try it, YOLO right?

Here is a pic of my eyes with the mascara on the left and not on the right, but I also have my typical eyeliner and eyeshadow on both.

Another thing I did not really love about this mascara, was the white side. It made my lashes look grey when I layered the black over it, so I never really used it. However, I would probably buy the black size by itself in full size. PS- the black thickens and white lengthens.

That's it loves! It was not a very exciting post, but stay tuned for Friday; I will be raving about THREE  drugstore hair products I am in loooove with!
XoXo,
Emily

Maybelline the Rocket Mascara Review!

Hi loves! I recently bought the semi-new Rocket Mascara by Maybelline and I felt the need to review it, because this mascara and I seem to have a love-hate relationship... and some very mixed feelings! ;)
I originally bought this mascara after hearing it holds the curl in your lashes really well.  My lashes are really straight and I curl them every single time I go out, so I bought this mascara in hopes it would help! Now I got the one that is not waterproof, however this mascara does not come off! I use makeup removes twice, wash my face, use makeup remover again, and the next morning I still have black under my eyes! In the add it said this mascara has a latex finish or something, which may contribute to the difficulty I have in getting it all off. Also, have any of you seen the review on Pinterest going around about this mascara? It is pretty funny; I will link it below.
Another problem I have with this mascara is that some days I love it, my lashes look curled and amazing, but other days it clumps and sticks to the point where I appear to have one single eyelash... (that may be an exaggeration, but you get my point!)

Pros
- the brush is thick and soft, but still firm
- stays on ALLLL day (and night!)

Cons
- can be clumpy
- does not always hold a curl
- EXTREMELY hard to remove

On the Maybelline website it says this product removes easily with soap/water and the Maybelline Clean Express Classic Eye Makeup Remover. So perhaps, if you believe in second chances like me, it will come off with the Maybelline remover (I used Almay and Simple)...?
Let me know down below your thought on this mascara, and how you feel about it!
Xoxo,
Emily
