The Best Mascara
I googled “the best mascara” and here is what I found: the number one brand that came up was Chanel Inimitable, the second was DiorShow Mascara, the third was Lancome Hypnose Mascara, and the forth runner up was Lancome Fatal Mascara. I read up on all the reviews of these products and this is what the reviews claim. With Chanel Inimitable coming in first it is supposed to offer a unique brush design, and sophisticated formula to create your best lashes ever. With a price tag around $27.50 I am yet to purchase it!
DiorShow Mascara came in number 2 and it is supposed to offer the same benefits, but some of the critics did not agree! One of the ladies that tried it said that she does not recommend it for people with short, thin lashes and that it quote “made her eyes look sad!” Now for a mascara to be good in my opinion it has to work on every shape of lash not just the lashes that are already long and thick! With another price tag around $27.50 I have not personally tried this product either, but with a review like that I would go with the Chanel Inimitable for the same price tag!
Lancome Hypnose Mascara came in as the third best mascara. Now this mascara said that it offers six times the volume of other mascaras! The critics agreed but a complaint to watch out for is the clumping. You can get this mascara for around $22.00, again not in my mascara budget!
The forth and final runner up was Lancome Fatal Mascara. Now the difference between this Lancome product and the last mascara mentioned is the 3D brush. The critics claim that this is really good mascara but you have to get used to the 3D brush before you realize it! This comes in at $21.00 which is still too steep for my taste!
I would have to say that my Ultimate Mascara by Mary Kay is by far the best mascara I have ever used and with a price tag of $15.00 it is more in my budget! I have smaller, thinner lashes and with my Ultimate Mascara I am able to build them up with out getting clumps! I call it “Mascara on steroids!” If you have not tried it, get in touch with a beauty consultant today at www.marykay.com

How to Hide Dark Circles
What is the best way to hide those dark circles that we all get under are eyes? I wanted to find out what were the best products for covering up the darkness.
One product that I use and recommend is a highlighting pen. I use a highlighting pen by Mary Kay and it works miracles! The job of the highlighting pen is to increase the reflection of light around your eyes. When ever light hits the eye it reflects the light preventing shadows that leave the eye looking dark.
Another product that is out on the market is concealer. Make up concealer is designed to just that conceal any unwanted flaws. What I use is a shade lighter then my usual foundation. That way it works like a highlighter and I can blend it in with my other foundation. It is always an option if you can not get your hand on a good highlighter.
To prevent getting dark circles I would suggest investing in a good eye cream. Eye creams help hydrate your eyes and they also cool down puffiness and help sooth eyes. I also use Mary Kay soothing eye gel. It is wonderful, you put it on in the morning when you wake up and by the time you get ready for work your eyes are ready for the day!
I hope this input helps you hide the dark circles next time they occur!
