Of all the things I have hoarded, loved, cherished and cared for in my life; make up has always been (and likely always will be) my absolute favorite thing to spend my hard-earned cash on.
I have over 100 lip balms. I have at least 50 eyeshadows. At any given time I will have between 3 and 6 different mascaras in rotation for fear one might dry out.
"Why so much make up?" you might be thinking. Well, some women have 200 pairs of shoes, or a closet full of designer jeans. Or most likely, a lot of pretty little gemstone bracelets and diamond rings. I like my makeup. More than my shoes, clothes, jewelery, hair, whatever have you.
I like to wear a lot of it. No, it's not because I am trying to hide behind it. I like my face, but I love the enhanced, airbrushed, defined look that my cosmetics and artistic skill can create.
I look at my face as a canvas, and use my makeup as a form of artistic expression. Every day.
And, I'll add it feels good to look good :)
I decided to make this blog because :
- I buy a lot of different products and I'd like to review them in detail with pics (focusing on mascara)
- I want to share my makeup addiction with those that understand and appreciate it as much as I do!
If you have an HG mascara, or one you'd like to see reviewed, please send me a message.
I will leave you with a pic of me wearing my almost HG mascara, Dior show black out :

hello, I am from the other side of the planet but I understand you completely! sorry for my english. I am looking for my HG mascara since I was 18 and I am 42 now:-) the one that made me very impressed is from "makeup factory" all-in-one mascara, diorshow waterproof and helena rubinstein feline blacks.
Hey there, I'm glad to hear from someone far away :)
Thank you for your recommendations, I will definitely look into these mascaras!
Also, your English is perfect ;)
hi again - I am glad that I finally have found somebody that describes exactly what I feel about mascara. I need length and separation - volume without length is not much impressive. the staying power and non-smudge formula is also very important for me. looking for this criteria the best non-waterproof formula belongs to the makeup factory mascara I mentioned in my post yesterday. I probably will leave some more posts on reviews I find interesting for me. I hope you don't mind:-)
Hey again, I just have to mention that the best inexpensive mascara I've ever tried is Prestige my biggest lashes. I think you would like it! It's basically perfect.
I will definitely look into that makeup factory mascara!
hi there from bosnia, it's me again, unfortunately, there is no Prestige products here where I live, no Nars, no Mac etc. We have on-the-budget- companies like L'oreal, Bourjois, Rimmel, Manhattan etc. and we have splurge-companies like Estee Lauder, C. Dior, Chanel etc. if you can find makeup factory (it is a german company artdeco) try mascara I recommended...
Oh no, what a shame there are no MAC or NARS in Bosnia. I think Bourjois has some nice things, I've been wanting to try their mascaras although I find them a little pricey here in Canada.
Prestige is a nice drugstore brand with some great products, the mascara only costs $9 CAD. Maybe you can find it online.
I hope to somehow find the one you recommended, I'm going to look :)
