Wow - 50 followers


YAY! My little old blog now has over 50 followers, which is lovely. They seem to come in groups and it has gone from like 45 to 50 in no time! Wowee. It's really nice to know you all like it and clicked the follow button. I love spending time on here and checking out all your blogs too. I can see this lasting a long time!
Now, as you know I am off to Vegas soon so I thought why not treat my followers to some American beauty products?! Now I know what I want to get for the lucky winner (hoping it will include Baby Lips which I know lots of people love and want to try) but I will tell you all about it when I get back at the end of October :) I don't go for another week or so yet though but I have my list of things to buy ready for when I do! xx

Maybelline The Falsies


I'm not overly loyal to my mascaras. I may use the same one for a few months or so but then when I go in to buy another I always have a look around to see what's new, but I hate paying more than £8 for one. Not really sure where this number came from but it just seems a bit excessive to pay almost £10 for something quite simple! Maybe it's just me.
But anyhow I picked this one up a little while ago and really loved it! I then found out my best friend also uses it which is always nice to know you're not the only one. I go through phases of wanting thick lashes, or wanting them to look light and fluttery. This time I wanted the thickness and volume so picked up Maybelline The Falsies mascara from Boots for £7.99.
It aims to deliver a false lash look as well as making them appear bold and voluminous. I like! After using it for a week or so I actually went out on a night out in Cardiff and only wore the mascara, whereas I would normally put false lashes on. A good sign I liked it!


 My lovely eye without the mascara...

My lashes look really long and definitely stand out. The only downside to this mascara is it has a funny smell, which I've noticed with a few Maybelline products, perhaps it's something they use? It also feels like it has run out pretty fast but I will still be repurchasing! Have you tried this mascara?
