Shopping My Stash:MAC Cork....

Wednesday, November 04, 2009

The unearthing of MAC Cork has been the highlight of the last couple of days. I used to be a die hard MAC Chestnut fiend but I was introduced to Cork when I went to the MAC counter in 2005 or 2006 trying to make NARS Orgasm lipgloss work for me. Orgasm never worked but Cork stayed. Uhmmmm.....this is the original liner from that visit.....:)
Currently, I've discovered a great nude lip on me. Its NK lipgloss in Beige( $1.00 at the BSS) and MAC Cork.....
Glorious.....love my Cork and Beige....sounds like a paint color.

$1.99 Mascara??....Ruby Kisses SuperMascara in Black Black....

Tuesday, November 03, 2009

The mascara game on some real insanity ish right now. Companies, drugstore to prestige pumping out mascaras like it ain't nothing. Every month its something newer and supposedly better.

It drives me nuts. I just want a mascara to:

Curl my lashes
Alongate my lashes
Blacken my lashes
Plump lashes

All at the same time.:)


I was on my weekly trip to the BSS when I picked up Ruby Kisses SuperMascara for 1.99. Yep 2.00....
Pros:
-the formula is soft. It doesn't dry hard
-Its Black Black. love that.:)
-the brush is soft. like a soft bristle brush
-its was 1.99. If it hadn't worked then I would not been upset....and broke.
-it plumps and lengthens at the same time. two coats did it.
-Waterproof.stays on til' you take it off.
-Comes off easy

Cons:
-Feel like I need a new tube already. But I tend not to screw the top of mascara on tight, so that's probably my fault.
Consensus:( pic of me wearing Ruby Kisses SuperMascara)
-Best 2.00 spent. on mascara. makes my heart pound:)


****Question: Would you buy $1.99 mascara? Why? or Why Not?****
