Mascara Update!

Ok, life gets in the way of things some time and I just needed to take care of a few things over the past few weeks so I had to take some time off from blogging but I'm back and ready to write!!!

CoverGirl Natureluxe Mascara
Any drug store $8.50

I have really been pleased with the Covergirl Natureluxe products-love the tinted moisturizer and the balm gloss so I was SO excited to give their mascara a try!! I went to Indiana a couple of weeks ago to spend some time with my amazing family and relax. It was much needed and I had a great time but, my allergies were KILLING me!!! Every day my mascara and eye liner were completely worn off my eyes and all over my face from me scratching at my eyes all day! I finally gave up the old mascara bottle and thought, "Now is the time to get a new mascara to blog about!!" So-I purchased the Covergirl Naturelux mascara! I had been wanting to buy this mascara for a long time since I was such a fan of the other Naturelux products. Well...it's just ok. I hate to say that but this is the thing-this mascara did a fantastic job for not irritating my eyes which this mascara would be fantastic for people which major eye sensitivities. But for me, usually I don't have eye sensitivities, except going to Indiana, the land of corn and blooming flowers. So normally mascara not running and irritating my eyes aren't really a main problem for me, but if you have an issue with mascara irritating your eyes or not staying on well-this one might be the one for you! I personally like a mascara that makes my eyes pop, I mean I want HUGE lashes!! This mascara here does not give that to you so I was a little bummed about that but one bonus is that there is no crap in this mascara. A lot of mascaras can be irritating and harsh and this one has natural beeswax instead of funky synthetics in it so that is a bonus. So just to add to the confusion of if this mascara is good or not, I just can't say. It definitely has some pros like the natural ingredients, gentle of sensitive eyes and does not rub off. But, it does have some cons, now really these cons are completely my personal opinion so really these cons aren't really major cons, just things I don't like :) Cons-does not add length or volume. I guess that's about the only con! I really love the mascara wand, it's fantastic. It really helps you apply the mascara evenly and no clumps!!

So at first when I starting writing this I thought it was going to sound anti-covergirl naturelux mascara but after really thinking about what works with it and what doesn't I guess the pros outweigh the cons! But-if you are looking for a thick, volumizing mascara this is not the one for you!!! But if you're curious and you just are really wanting to try it- go for it!! I think you will like it!
