Revlon Mega Multiplier Mascara Voxbox & Review

Hey everyone! I received the Revlon Mega Multiplier Mascara Voxbox in the mail a few days ago and I wanted to share with you my first impressions!


Claims & Benefits
The main purpose of this mascara is to give your lashes an oversized lash look. The unique formula contains many fibres that housed inside a 360 degrees tube. It will: help to extend your lashes, it's flake-free, smudge-proof wear, it washes off easily with warm water and it deposits the product from lash line to the tip of the lash to give you both extreme length as well as mega volume. 


The Wand, The Packaging & How It Performs
The wand reminds me of an upside down inverted cone that is blue in colour before you dip it into your mascara. The packaging is black and turquoise in colour which definitely resembles the other Revlon mascara that have the exact same shape of the tube. You can tell them apart from the colour on the handle of the wand and they also have different brush shapes in general. This mascara coated my lashes very evenly, it was easy to use and I used a maximum of 5 coats. I was really impressed to be honest with you and I have used a lot of mascaras!


Price Point, Where To Buy & Shades
I have seen it on sale at SDM for $7.99. If you live in Canada, you can find it at Shoppers Drug Mart, Rexall or any other major drugstore. You can purchase it at Ulta, CVS or any major drugstore in the USA. It comes in 4 different shades: Plum Brown, Blackened Brown, Black and Blackest Black. 


Is it Worth the Hype?
I really do think that it is worth the money and I like it much better than the COVERGIRL So Lashy! blastPRO Mascara. I would definitely purchase this same exact mascara once my tube runs out and I love the technology behind it! You can definitely build this mascara up and it is long wearing as it didn't flake on me throughout the day. It didn't leave me with raccoon eyes underneath my lower lashes which is something that I really look for in a mascara. I would say that it gives my lashes more length rather than volume but my lashes are difficult to work with and I always curl them before applying mascara. It also is rather interesting when you wash this mascara off because at first I thought my lashes were coming out but it is just the fibres coming off into the sink!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY

COVERGIRL So Lashy! Mascara & COVERGIRL Intensify Me! Liquid Liner Review

Hey everyone! Today I am sharing with you two new COVERGIRL products that are for the eyes! I will be talking about their new Intensify Me! Liquid Liner as well as their So Lashy! Mascara that is designed for all types of lashes!


COVERGIRL So Lashy! Blast PRO Mascara in #785 Extreme Black 


This product really speaks to me because I have both Straight as well as Sparse lashes! It can be difficult for me to find a mascara to help me out in both departments! I have high hopes for this product and can’t wait to see what it will do to my lashes! Applying fake lashes is a quick fix, but this mascara would be ideal for when I go to work or for days that I don’t have the time to apply falsies on.


Pros:
- An innovative product
- I am drawn to the packaging and really like it!
- It is a drugstore item that can be found at major drugstore chains
- This is a plastic wand for those of you who are fond of them
- It comes in 5 different shades: Extreme Black, Intense Black, Jet Black, Black & Black Brown
- It is also available in a waterproof formula (according to the COVERGIRL web site,) for those of you who prefer that formula. I personally do not use it so therefore, that doesn’t affect my opinion on this product.
- The ball tip is designed to get even your smallest lashes


Cons:
- This mascara is more on the expensive side for being drugstore
- Certain areas in the brush lacked bristles to be available to actually coat my lashes which can cause clumps because it is depositing too much product
- The bristles are quite stiff which can raise concern for people with sensitive eyes

Product Features/Claims:
- Lash Fibers
- Mascara can be used for all lash types (Curly, Sparse or Straight)
- 3-in-1 brush head
- Long lasting
- A volumizing mascara
- Bold and dark volume for any type of lashes (their darkest formula to date)
- COVERGIRL is claiming that it is a unique product and there are none that compare to this one
- Smudge, flake and smear resistant
- Great for contact lens wearers
- Easy to remove at the end of the day

Price:
It retails for $11.99 USD on the Ulta web site and $12.99 CAD at Shoppers Drug Mart. This is definitel more on the pricey side for being a drugstore mascara. 

COVERGIRL Intensify Me! By Lash Blast Liquid Liner in #300 Intense Black


Product Features/Claims:
- Paddle Tip - Thick to Thin lines depending on your preference 
- Marker-style pen
- No Mess
- That it has the control of a pencil
- Intensity of a liquid liner 
- That it is suitable for sensitive eyes which I do have
- Dries quickly
- Easy to remove with soap and water


Pros:
- I swatched this on my hand before applying it to my lids and it was budge proof!
- It was waterproof for about 6-7 hours despite washing my hands multiple times before I finally seen it start to fade slightly
- It is very opaque in colour
- The product glides on effortlessly
- It is very easy to use
- Matte finish
- Very easy to remove with my YSL Eye Makeup Remover. I barely had to rub it off on my skin.
- Delivers a very bold colour onto the eyelids
- Affordable as it retails for about $8-$11 CAD depending on where you purchase it from
- A drugstore product
- There are 5 great shades to choose from: Intense Black, Sapphire, Emerald, Blue Topaz & Smoked Amber


Cons:
- The applicator is stiff and can take some getting used to for those who like a flexible applicator tip
- Can feel like you are using a Sharpie marker to line your eyes
- Need to store this tip down in a jar or a glass to prevent this from drying out quickly
- There is a learning curve to using this liner and especially to perfecting using this liner!

Overall Thoughts:
Everyone has a different way of doing their liquid eyeliner. It takes months to master and once you get the hang of it, you become comfortable doing it a certain way. To change the way you are doing it can lead to much frustration. It is inevitable that this product is going to get mixed reviews depending on what your preference is with liquid liner.

Dupe for the Flormar Triple Action Mascara

Hey everyone! I found a product that is basically identical to the Flormar Triple Action Mascara!

Price
The dupe is called the Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara by Flower Beauty. I purchased mine on sale at Wal-Mart for only $4.50 CAD. The mascara by Flormar retails for ‎€9.95 which is the equivalent of approximately $14.42 CAD.



Differences
The main differences are that in the dupe by Flower Beauty, it has 0.29 oz of products and the mascara by Flormar only has 0.27 oz of product. You are actually getting more product in the dupe. Also, the mascara by Flormar has Argan Oil and Olive Oil. The Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara contains D-Panthenol to help smooth the lashes and rice wax that 'helps smudge-proof colour.' The cheaper alternative by Flower Beauty comes in five different formulas: Intense Black, Black, Brown-Black, Brown and Waterproof Intense Black. I only found one formula by Flormar when I researched online.

Similarities 
They both have rose gold packaging and the shape of the tube is the exact same. The three wand heads are identical and at the top, both mascaras tell you to twist as it is a 3-in-1 product. They also have the exact same little icon. Basically, I can keep telling you the similarities but this is pretty much an identical product.

Opinion(s)
I own the Flower Beauty Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara but I do not own the similar mascara by Flormar. See another blog post I wrote that mentions the mascara by Flower Beauty and you can view more photos there. Overall, I do like this mascara but it is not one of my favourites. It does the job but it is not a holy grail mascara of mine. This is a multi-functional mascara that curls, lengthens and adds volume. I find this to be more of a gimmick but it does get the job done.


I wasn't able to find this exact product on the Flormar web site but if you do a quick Google search, you will be able to find the information you need. I also can't use a photo of the Flormar mascara because I do not have rights to it and I do not own it so that is out of the question.

Sorry for the delay in posting content. My camera that I was using to take my blog photos was on its last leg and I ordered a new camera, but I was having problems with the shipping company. Anyway, it finally got to my house and now I can start posting content again! 

Until next time,

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.
