Tricky Hair | 3D Mink Eyelashes

Hey everyone! Since it is Thanksgiving here in Canada, I wanted to wear my Mink Lashes by Tricky Hair that will compliment any fall look!


 I received many compliments when I wore them out and they were definitely the star of the show!


Packaging
I absolutely love the packaging that the mink lashes come in! The black and pink looks great together! The polka dots add a nice touch and to open up the box that the lashes come in, you simply pull the two parts on the top outwards. I also appreciated that it didn't come in that plastic packaging that other brands house their lashes in. This is a very sturdy box and like I mentioned, you literally open up the box to get to the lashes and there is no slide out exterior cover that some of you may be used to. It is a very practical and well thought-out design!


The Lashes
These lashes are made with 100% Mink Fur. They are very soft and they are long in length which I absolutely love! They can also be worn for a night out with the girls, on a bride that would like a more dramatic lash or if you have a special upcoming event! I have small eyes in general and every single lash that I buy (regardless of the brand,) I do have to cut. I didn't have to trim much off these lashes but underneath is a photo of the lashes outside the box before I cut them. If you are wondering, they are very comfortable to wear, they are very lightweight (they are not heavy & do not weigh down your lids,) and they are BY FAR my favourite pair of lashes that I currently own! They are more full towards the band and they feather out towards the end giving a more dramatic look. I would estimate that they would be good for about 20-25 uses if you take care of them.


Before & After



You can see from the photos above that I have sparse lashes that are long in length. I look for a lash that gives me volume and that is exactly what these mink eyelashes gave me! I couldn't be happier and you can see for yourself down below the difference that it made.

Before

After

The Eye Look

To achieve the eye look, I used the Morphe 350 Palette. I have highlighted which shades that I used on my eyes. The shimmery shade that is in the top row and third from the left, I used that all over my lid. The gorgeous brown shade was used in my lower crease. The orange shade directly to the right of the brown was used in my upper crease. Then I went in with the shade underneath the orange that is circled in black in my outer-v. To go underneath my lower lashes, I used a mixture of the three shades to the right of the palette. To add some shimmer in my inner corners and for my brow bone highlight, I went in with my trusty Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette with Venus. In-between my crease colours and brow bone highlight, I used Foxy in that same palette as a transitional shade. 



What I Used On My Lips:
- ColourPop Lippie Pencil in Brink 
- Revlon Lip Butter in Raspberry Pie
- Revlon Colourburst Lip Gloss in Bordeaux

On my lips, I used three different products and definitely took advantage of a more glossy lip since that is coming back after the matte lips took over for a while and I couldn't be happier!

Morphe Haul + A Mascara

Hey everyone! I recently went on the Morphe web site because I was finally convinced that I wanted to buy the highly talked about 350 Palette. There are a great range of colours which includes some gorgeous warm shades. As you can tell by the swatches, each shadow is highly pigmented. The only thing that I noticed when s watching the matte shades is that I had to pick up more product to get that opacity that I wanted. I do wish the palette was smaller in size because it is not ideal to travel with. Other than that, I am glad that I did pick-up this palette.


I finger swatched the last three shades on the right in the palette in the photo below. 


I had never ordered from the Morphe web site before and I didn’t know that you could purchase other brands! After browsing the web site, I came across Jeffree Star’s Lip Scrubs and knew I had to buy one once I seen that it came in Pumpkin Spice Latte. It smells incredible and will be perfect for getting soft lips in fall! The packaging is gorgeous and you get 30 grams of product which is 1 oz. It is 5 grams more than the lip scrubs at Lush which only contain 25 grams. They are both sugar based lip scrubs. 


There is a great range of brushes on the web site to choose from and I knew right away that I wanted a smaller brush for contouring. I bought the E46 Mini Angled Buffer Brush which is soft and the perfect size! I haven’t tried it on my face yet but it seems promising! The second brush that I purchased happens to be one of Jaclyn Hill’s favourites which is the M433 Pro Firm Blending Fluff. It is fluffy and rounded - just what I had wanted! A girl can never have enough blending brushes!

I did order the Morphe Concealer in Beige. I originally wanted a lighter shade but they were sold out so I settled on buying a slightly darker shade. I must say that I am not impressed with the formula. I don’t know if I got a bad batch, but you can tell from the photo that mine is clumpy, chunky and not appealing whatsoever. It is a thicker concealer and does blend out well. I can make this colour work but there is a lot of pink/peach undertones to it. It was only $5 USD and I am almost out of my other concealer so I needed something to replace it.


Separate from my Morphe order, I went to Wal-Mart a few days ago and wanted to share with you this mascara that I came across. It is from the Flower Line created by Drew Barrymore. I couldn’t find any information online if they are discontinuing the line or not because at Wal-Mart, the entire line was on clearance and there was barely anything left. I was tempted to purchase an eyeshadow quad but I had to refrain from doing so because I just bought the Morphe 350 palette. I digress, anyway, I got the Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara that has three different brush heads. 


It claims to lengthen, curl and add thickness to your lashes. Each brush head does something different and if you use all three brush heads on your lashes, then you will receive all three benefits. You just twist the black part on the handle to get the specific brush head you want, coat your lashes generously and you are left with beautiful customizable lashes! I purchased mine in the shade Intense Black and I only paid $4.50 for this mascara.


Until next time,

STAY CLASSY.
