Ardell Brow and Lash Accelerator Treatment Gel: Review

For about a year and a half i've been using Covergirl Lashbast waterproof mascara, and while I simply adore that mascara, it really started to take a toll on my lashes! Yes its true that the mascara would last all day but that also meant it was close to impossible to take it off at the end of the day without pulling out some sad little lashes! Seeing those lashes laying there on that cotton ball urged me to buy  a lash serum, and this is what I chose:

Ardell Brow and Lash Accelerator Treatment Gel:



FORMULA: A thin almost watery gel, does not leave lashes crunchy, scentless
COLOR: Clear
PACKAGING: Basic mascara tube, with a spool applicator
PRICE: $4-$8

This product has basically saved my lashes! Before using this my lashes were brittle from long days of wearing waterproof mascara. I applied this nightly after removing all my makeup and right from the start I could feel a difference. It didnt make my lashes grow dramatically, but it did help condition and strengthen them. I'll be honest I still abuse my lashes with constant waterproof mascara, but hey you only live once! Enjoy!

ELF Mineral Lip Gloss Sorority Girl: Swatch and Review

For a while ELF cosmetics were a hit or miss for me, I believe it was 3 years ago that I bought my first elf product it was a $1 plumping lip gloss that I really wouldn't recommend but ELF really knocked it out of the park with their mineral lip gloss! The shade I'll be reviewing is Sorority Girl



FORMULA: The formula is fantastic, its ultra smooth, light weight, scentless, and not sticky at all.
COLOR: Soroity Girl is a very deep pink with a warm undertone, it comes off as a "my lips but better" kind of color. It's slighty sheer but buildable.
PACKAGING: On the small side so its pocket friendly, Classy and sturdy clear plastic with matte black top.
PRICE: $3



ELF Mineral Lip Gloss in Sorority Girl is great! The color works nicely on my warm skintone, and the formula is exactly what i like, smooth and creamy with no tackiness whatsoever. Will definitley pick more of these babies up!
