(I received the color blackest black mascara from Influenster to review)
I can honestly say that out of all of these products the mascara was my absolute favorite and my least was the palette so far as of trying it.
Allow me to be clear, I didn't hate the palette by all means. It's just if out of receiving 3 products to review and had to rank them like the most to the least that's just how it would be. The colors are very pigmented and amazing. Very smooth texture and glides onto your brush with ease. I was trying to create a more bold look than what the palette offered. This isn't a bunch of eyeshadows that create those bold looks you see on Instagram, you get looks you see at movie premieres and red carpets. Very sexy and sultry and super easy to use from the most skilled makeup artist to the girl who just needs a color or two to get the job done.
hows's the brows??
To be honest I was very surprised about the brow definer. When I initially saw opened the packaging and saw the shape of it I thought, "How the heck am I supposed to use this thing?" It wasn't until I tried it that I realized it was pure genius and clever.
Most brow pencils if applied a bit more heavy handed than others can apply hard and leave pencil like streaks in your brows creating a "Paint On" look. This doesn't leaves a harsh line at all which creates a more natural/fuller brow which is pretty much on trend. I applied this on my after defining with my angled brush and brow pomade from Anastasia Beverly Hills and I used the Maybelline Brow Definer to fill in with instead of the pomade and I must say it looked amazing! I typically don't like filling in my full brows with a pomade because I don't always care for the look on my face but the brow definer did the job and still maintained a natural and yet bold look.
If you're looking for that super defined brow, then this isn't the product for you. This definer gives you the versatility to create a natural brow or a fuller bold brow. Easy to use and sold at a reasonably affordable price point of $7.99.
soooooo about the lashes...
The Total Temptations washable mascara had to be my absolute favorite product from this entire collection. They made my lashes look so full and so long and I am not someone who has the longest of lashes. When I went to remove it with a makeup wipe it removed with ease and took very little effort to come off. My lashes didn't get clumpy even after applying more than one coat.
overall???
This is a pretty cute collection to try out if you are a drugstore beauty junkie. It wont break the bank and you'll be mostly happy with the results.
