MAYBELLINE:: Rocket Volum' Express Mascara (Waterproof)

Hulluuuu! :) I was scanning Superdrug the other day (as you do) and noticed that Maybelline has introduced a new volumising mascara - the Rocket Volum' Express Mascara! I absolutely love Maybelline and especially their mascaras (my favourites being the Colossal and Falsies mascaras). The only mascara from Maybelline that hasn't worked for me is their Great Lash mascara - it just didn't seem to want to stick to my lashes at all; but their Colossal and Falsies mascara does wonders!!

So I purchased the product with high expectations and I'm proud to say that I was very, very impressed with their new Rocket mascara as it gives enormous length and volume! With each sweep of the brush, your lashes just get longer and longer, and thicker and thicker! It's really as if you're wearing subtle falsies which is amazing because I always feel like falsies are so heavy on the eyes. I purchased the waterproof version because the weather in Hertfordshire is beyond unpredictable (or anywhere in England for that matter!!) and I don't want to have to keep popping to the loo to check that my make up has not smudged.

The brush has loads of small bristles which makes sure that every single one of your lashes are coated and you can comb on extra layers without getting spidery or clumped up lashes. The packaging is pretty much the same as a couple of their mascaras (including Colossal) and I absolutely love the chunky handle bit because it makes the application process so much easier and quicker - you can literally, just roll it down your thumb! 

It's on offer at Superdrug for only £5 at the moment so grab one before they start retailing them at the full price (£7.99)!! And let me know if this mascara works wonders on you too! :)

Wishing you all happy lashes!

BENEFIT:: Waterproof Bad Gal Liner (Extra Black)

my sister gave this to me and i decided to use it for lining the top of my eyes :)

i have uneven eyes - a triple eye lid on the left eye and a mono-lid on the right!

so i needed a pencil eyeliner that wouldn't smudge on my mono-lid.

i generally prefer pencil liners because they're softer and less messy 
(for someone like me!)

whereas, liquid eyeliners are harsher and bolder but it's more precise and clean

so i tend to use a liquid eyeliner for a night out - just so i know it'll stay!

i would definitely recommend this eyeliner because it does what it says - 
it's extremely waterproof!

and it stays on throughout the day so there's no need to keep reapplying..

there's also a smudger on the other end of the pencil so you can soften the look :)

unfortunately, the eyeliner does eventually transfer to the top on my mono-lid 

but this is still the case for me with liquid eyeliner and primer doesn't do much

so if you guys have any suggestions, that would be great! :)

also, i don't usually use it to line the bottom of my eyes so i can't assure the same results.

after finishing the first one, i decided to look for another waterproof eyeliner 

as this one tends to be a little on the expensive side unfortunately! :(

i've looked at almost all the high-street brands and i haven't seen one like this

so after, i bought the same one again because i love it so much and i was too lazy to hunt elsewhere! ♥

it lasts for about 4 months (if you use it on a daily basis) and it does the job!

pros:

waterproof

long lasting

lasts for a few months

soft texture

additional smudger

cons:

expensive

can smudge

thank you for reading! :)
