MAKE YOUR LASHES LOOK LIKE FALSIES WITH WET & WILD CLINICAL MASCARA

Hey Blossoms,

Your eyes are the gateway to your soul! Yes that's deep! On a lighter note we want our eyes to look alluring and intense and we'll do anything to achieve that. Mascara is a necessity in many women lives. It gives our eye lashes that oomph it needs to set us on our way to a "va-va voom" look. Translation: We want a mascara that makes our lashes look as if we are wearing false eyelashes (falsies) even when we aren't. I've found a mascara that does JUST that!!!

Wet & Wild Mega Lash Clinical Mascara

Here's what it claims:

  • 87% of women say they have visibly fuller, thicker and longer lashes upon application
  • It's custom designed brush lengthens and defines without clumps
  • contains Moroccan Argan oil that conditions, nourishes and adds shine to your lashes
  • contains Vitamin E,C, and B-complex, Soy Protein & Arginine to help stimulate stronger lashes
  • Ophthalmologist tested
  • Safe for contact lens wearers
  • Wiper helps to deliver ideal amount of formula to every bristle

Here's the packaging:



Let's break down all that it claims and I'll let you make the final decision on this mascara (I KNOW but YOU have to find out!)

87% of women say they have visibly fuller, thicker and longer lashes upon application

I guess I'm lucky enough to be able to be apart of that 87%!!!! One application and my eyelashes INSTANTLY LOOKED fuller, thicker (DEFINITELY!) & longer! 

BEFORE 



AFTER



Next claim: It's custom designed brush lengthens and defines without clumps

I'm wearing the mascara below put your magnifying glasses on for this so you can truly be convinced because there are NO clumps!!!!







Next few claims:
  • contains Moroccan Argan oil that conditions, nourishes and adds shine to your lashes
  • contains Vitamin E,C, and B-complex, Soy Protein & Arginine to help stimulate stronger lashes
  • Ophthalmologist tested
  • Safe for contact lens wearers
Unfortunately these are claims I can not prove through pictures. I can say that this mascara is super smooth, glides on and does NOT dry down to a hard brittle matte finish. I've touched my lashes while this mascara was still on and although the mascara does dry (not to a hardened dry finish though) my lashes STILL felt soft and flexible and has an intense black look (my lashes don't look dry and thirsty!). I also loved the perfect curl this mascara gave my lashes! This mascara is NOT water-proof but it glides off seamlessly with a makeup wipe, water and/or makeup remover. You don't have to worry about getting raccoon eyes, sore lids/eye area from scrubbing or your lashes breaking off with this mascara. I'm always amazed at how easy this mascara is removed . Sometimes my left eye gets teary and my mascara runs into it and that can BURN but with this mascara I didn't feel any stinging. (I STILL DO NOT recommend getting this mascara into your eye so BE CAREFUL!) Overall I think these claims weren't too far fetched. Although not as instantly noticeable as the first 2 claims these claims held up to their end of the bargain and I was beyond satisfied. 

Last (but certainly not least) claim: Wiper helps to deliver ideal amount of formula to every bristle








Overall, this mascara is worth trying and INEXPENSIVE TOO!!! Highly recommended! SHERRY BLOSSOM APPROVED! 

BUT nothing is PERFECT!!

Cons

The wiper can become loosened and start to come out as you pull the wand out but it can be held down while pulling the wand out. Be sure to hold the wiper down if  it loosens and pull the wand out slowly or else too much mascara will come out onto the wand. This is minor and can be wiped off by gliding the side of the mascara wand  with the excess product along the top of the tube of mascara and wiping off anything that may not go into the tube (if you own it personally) for MUAs (wipe the excess into a makeup remover and clean the top with it too.. do NOT put the mascara back in the TUBE!)

Be careful not to dunk the wand all the way in and pull it out quickly. Otherwise you may get a glob of mascara to come out the top and then the end of the mascara tube starts to get messy all the extra mascara that comes out when the wand is removed. This is minor and can be wiped off. 



Here's more photos of HOW this mascara TRANSFORMED my lashes!

Can you tell which eyelash has mascara and which doesn't?












MY LASHES LOOK LIKE FALSIES...THANKS TO WET & WILD CLINICAL MASCARA...MY NEW LOVE!


So all I want to know Blossoms is: When are you purchasing yours????!!!!!!!!




Until Next Time,

Later Blossoms!

BLOSSOMING FACE OF THE DAY: KALEIDOSCOPE GLAM

Hey Blossoms,

I am in LOVE with color you all know this! Well today's BLOSSOMING FACE OF THE DAY is packed with it! An amazing duochrome eyeshadow! Duochrome eyeshadows reflect 2 colors and are so amazingly beautiful. I love duochrome eyeshadows. For more popular duochrome eyeshadows think of 2 of my favorites: MAC's Stars & Rockets E/s, MAC's Club E/s There are many duochrome pigments too! Many other cosmetic companies have their own so don't be afraid to experiment and check them out. In this look I used the duochrome E/s, from Wet & Wild's Limited Edition Holiday Palette in Night Elf , it can definitely be a dupe for MAC's Club E/s! Duochrome E/s remind me of a kaleidoscope. I loved kaleidoscopes as a child because as you looked at them the more it would start to look different. So much fun was had just peeking through its little opening and oohing and ahhing at the different shapes and colors! OHHHH the memories! LOL! Now let's turn this childhood past time into a great modern day KALEIDOSCOPE GLAM eye thats frisky, spunky, cool and down right FUN!
