Another Look at LashBlast.

I have been so enamoured in trying all of the latest moving mascara brands, that I almost forgot about one of my newer favorites. I started using Covergirl LashBlast last year, but it had sort of gotten stashed away. It wasn't until I was subtly reminded again at how great this mascara is that it has been making it's way back into my rotation.

If you have not given this big orange beauty a try yet, you really need to check it out at your mass merchandiser or drugstore soon. Be sure you don't let the size or different type of brush fool you. The large rubberized brush does a fantastic job of coating each lash, building them in volume as it lengthens.

For everyday, I only use one coat of LashBlast. For night time or extra eyelash oomph, I wait a minute or two and apply a second or even third coat. Love!

LashBlast ($7.50) comes in two formulas, the regular version which I use as well as a waterproof version. LashBlast is available in four shades: Very Black, Black, Black Brown, and Brown.

Update on Lumene Blueberry Curl Mascara Giveaway.

Good morning lovelies!

I have to apologize to the winners of my Lumene Blueberry Curl Mascara Giveaway. I selected the winners last weekend, but my comment system has been acting up, and I could not see your e-mail addresses. Alas, I have it working this morning and winners will be notified by e-mail this morning.

Trust me, it is worth the wait. Not only have I been using this mascara almost everyday, I am finidng it a perfect primer or base coat to others that give more volume. Blueberry Curl gives the best bend, or curl, right at the base of the lashes as it lifts the lashes and holds them in place.

A New Mascara to Love and WIN - Lumene Blueberry Curl Mascara.

This is a total win-win situation.

First, when using this newly launched Blueberry Curl Mascara from Lumene, you will get the prize for beautifully curled, long and full lashes.  The combination of Finnish blueberry seed oil and a very different plastic mascara brush, gives your lashes the ultimate eye-opening curl.

The innovative plastic brush which is exclusive to Lumene, not only lifts lashes upward while shaping and curling, the flat cone-shape with rounded sides helps the formula adhere well to the lashes. The flexibility of the brush helps the color apply evenly from root to tip while helping to separate each individual lash.

When using, my lashes are beautifully defined with the best curl. Really, the curl is so great that I can skip the etra step of pre-curling my lashes with an eyelash curler. For those of you with very straight lashes, the use of both the eyelash curler and Blueberry Curl will result in the best curl for you.

Blueberry Curl Mascara is available in Rich Black and Black Brown for $9.99 at ULTA and ulta.com.
