because you're worth it

Mkay. I wanted to try the L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Million Lashes mascara, so I lurked around and saw that ULTA was having a buy two get one free on L'Oreal products. So along with the mascara, I also picked up their Lash Boosting Serum and True Match Super Blendable Concealer! Here's just a short review of each:

Voluminous Million Lashes:

Right before I ordered this mascara, I realized they didn't have a waterproof version so I almost didn't buy it. But I was like, screw it, and got it anyways. I like the bristles on the brush; they're good for separating and defining the lashes well. It wasn't too clumpy either. However, it wasn't as lengthening as I hoped, but that's okay because it didn't advertise to be a lengthening mascara. I also wish it was waterproof so my curls would hold.

Lash Boosting Serum:

Can't really do a review on this yet, since it's only been a day! It's supposed to make your eyelashes stronger and longer with daily use. I will note that it's pretty easy to use and doesn't irritate my eyes. Says you're supposed to be able to wear it under mascara but I noticed it kinda gets clumpy so I probably won't. Remind me in a few weeks to tell you guys if it works!

True Match Blendable Concealer:

I needed a new concealer since the AmazingCosmetics one I bought turned out to be too dark for my current skin tone. My thoughts were that although it is indeed super blendable, the coverage was a little lacking. Probably light-to-medium coverage. But maybe you can layer it? Still, I like it cause I don't like cakey concealers. So I would probably use something different when I have a huge blemish to cover.

So that's all my personal opinion! I'm no expert but hope it was interesting :)

Hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day! It's just another day to me, honestly, so Jeff and I just celebrated it as so. Woke up late (as usual) and headed to the mall cause that's just what we do. Sipped on a mango smoothie while browsing stores; Jeff bought me a new purse and mascara. We had dinner at Metro Grill, where Jeff got the huge ass rib-eye that we had on our last anniversary. I wish I could have eaten a steak but my teeth are in pain and I can't chew...so I just had some mashed potatoes...mac & cheese...it's like getting my wisdom teeth pulled all over again!

On our way back to Jeff's college we went in one of those auto car washes, which was a fun experience. I kept thinking about Final Destination when that girl almost died but it wasn't even like that....? I scrambled back to his dorm room to do sociology homework while suffering with a headache but then I re-read the syllabus and found out it wasn't mandatory. OMG. Then I withered in pain while watching Gossip Girl.

Jeff started freaking out because his limited edition copy of some video game (Capcom VS Marvel?) didn't pull through so he started calling all these places to see if they had it. Turns out limited edition was only for pre-orders so we just ended up going to the nearby Wal-Mart to get a regular copy at midnight. Now we're back in his dorm room, where his roommate ran back from his girlfriend's to play together. Oh boys.

Happy Valentine's Day?

i'm still alive

Only two posts in January?! I haven't been motivated to write in here, at all. Lots of things have been happening but I'm just too lazy nowadays to document it! Also, I haven't been taking photos so no accompanying visuals. I'm going to try to change that, promise...

Today was kinda Jeff and I's day off, so we slept in super late and then decided to check out a mall we've never been to before! It's sorta close to his school. We walked around for a bit and had some Cinnabon and Starbucks, where I tried their new size "trenta", which was barely bigger than the venti. There was a place where you could play glow-in-the-dark mini golf, which was kind of cool. I got a prize at the end where I got free admission for next time, so I guess we'll be going back sometime! After mini-golf, had a quick dinner at the food court before catching a movie. Decided to watch The Roommate, since Leighton Meester is my fave. I didn't expect it to be great, but it was okay. Haha.

Now I have to do work for my online classes, eek!
