YOUNIQUE: Product Review

No mascara...(yikes...) 

Added black liquid liner and a coat of regular mascara (L'Oreal Telescopic...my drug store fave)

I FINALLY got the chance to try a product that I've been seeing everywhere and I can't wait to tell you guys about it! I am all about mascara and I am guilty of not caring if it has a "natural" look. I like thick, long lashes that say "Hello world, I am here and fab!" So, Younique is the ultimate product for me.

Here is how it works...
This eyelash enhancing duo (there are two tubes that make up this product) that plump up your lashes 300% in thickness and volume.

1.) Apply a thin coat of your favorite regular mascara on top and both lashes. Let dry.
2.) Apply an even coat of the Transplanting Gel (don't worry, it's black so just looks like mascara) on lashes.
3.) Before the transplanting gel dries, apply the fibers (applied with a mascara-style wand) onto lashes.
4.) Seal the fibers with another coat of the transplanting gel.

The fibers are 100% natural green tea fibers.

Telescopic? Totes.

After hearing my coworkers raving about eyelash extensions - something that I'd love to try (if it wasn't going to cost me hundreds) - I have been trying to find the perfect mascara...a mascara that would give me a little more pow! So, how delighted was I when I found two new L'Oreal mascaras to try in my product package last week? Over the moon, sugar. I've tried the one above, Telescopic Shocking Extension. I'll admit...I'm a little hesitant about all of these new, funky brushes. I'm old school about my brushes...like my typical bristles. However, this one won me over. This product gave me the length I was looking for. I even had someone comment on my lengthy lashes today - boom. 

Brighten Up With Blue

Spice up your regular makeup routine with a bold color as your bottom liner. To help the the shadow (used as liner) stay in place, wet a Q-tip before dabbing into shadow. Rub along bottom lashes and make line as thick as you prefer. For this look, I used a Sephora Baked Color Palette. 

Next to Nothing Nude

Looking for another way to look a little more awake? Try nude eyeliner! Kind of unexpected, if you ask me. Nude eyeliner is also great for perfecting subtle eyes when trying out a bold lipstick. 

Work (Eye) Wear

If you can't have fun doing your hair and makeup for work, then your work week is just that much more rough than the rest of the working world. I like to keep it interesting. Yesterday I opted for a light eye (never forgetting my liquid liner) and a darker gloss. Today I went for a smokey eye and nude lipstick. Yes, I wore smokey eyes to work...sue me. For both looks, I used my Sephora Eye Palette! Va-voom!
