As you know I recieved this Product Courtesy of a up and coming company, the creators of Twilash! I filmed a short video of my initial reaction to the product, which I will embed down below, so that you can laugh at me haha :). The following day, I filmed my first time using the product and the results.
Twilash is all in one product meant to replace your traditional eyelash curler, which can and actually does bend your lashes. This product uses the method of ribbon curling, rather than bending your lashes in a blunt force trauma way, it enhances their natural curve. Easy to use and it all in one! Curler, Mascara and Remover all in one contraption! So, lets get into the review!

This product was sent to me for review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I was in a blogger forum today and someone asked "when do you wear false lashes?" And it struck me, I wear falsies a lot! I didn't always, but I sure do love me some lashes now.
I wear them when I want some extra flare added to my eye looks, I love dramatic eyes! I bought some lashes off of Ebay a few years ago when I first started wearing falsies, they came all the way from China so it took forever but I loved them even though I didn't see them yet.
When they arrived they were plastic! And in order to wear them I had to soak them in makeup remover to get the unglued from the packaging! It was hilarious but I loved them anyway.
False Lashes can get very expensive, even at the drug store the lowest I have seen were from $4.99 to $7.00 a pair. I hated buying them. 1. I am a cheap ass. 2. One time wear ain't worth no $7.00 if I don't have a special occasion to attend.
I learned the difference between human hair and plastic lashes, I learned how to preserve my lashes for future use, I even learned how to split one pair of lashes in two for a nice cat eye looking lash. But I could never pay that much for them!
On a trip to L.A, My sister and I went downtown for some shopping. This place is like a circus, anything and everything you could ever want is within a 6-8 block radius. I asked if there were any beauty supply shops in the area and we were lead down the street.
This place was no bigger then a walk in closet, with the walls covered in lashes!! They had the largest selection I had ever seen!! I was in heaven, so many styles and colors it was truly amazing and the best part is they were only $1.50 a piece!! These lashes are exact dupes for Wild Cherry Lashes.
I picked up about $40.00 worth and by the time I gave some to the girls I still had enough to last me a whole year! I repurchased another bag full at a swapmeet in Vegas. And I never paid full price for lashes again!
So to answer the question, I wear lashes all the time.
Disney Villains False Lashes by Ardell are at Walgreen's And they are on sale from 7.99 to 5.99
for a few days only!
I am a nut when it comes to lashes and these are amazing! Each Villain has her own set of lashes and some even have rhinestones on them perfect for any glam look especially with Halloween right around the corner.
Lets see what these villains have in store for us tonight!
Cruella De vil
She is as bad as they come! A Fashionista and a Die hard bitch. She hatee puppies or anything that has a prettier coat then the one she wears, But these lashes are all about the drama! Long and full of statements. The bottom pair features rhinestones on the outer rim perfect for a winged liner look matched with a red lip.
Oh, the villainy!
Ursula
Now this is a villain if there ever was! Even though she was a Squid at heart, her selfish ways brought poor Ariel down to her knees! She used her sensual eyes to draw your attention away from the fact that she was half squid and could take you down in a millisecond. These lashes are sure to get the attention of your prey.
Maleficent
For years she has defined the art of the perfect arch and with the sexiest eyes of any animated character. She was the one you loved to hate but watched her just to see what she would do next. Captivating us with her surreal beauty and cold heart, Maleficent is the way to go to show, No isn't an option. To follow in her footsteps you will have to take matters into your own hands. The faint of heart need not apply here.
Evil Queen
What would it be like to have minions at you beck and call? Answering to your every whim? She embodies deathly beauty and determined eyes, no one will get in her way. Sensual and powerful are the two main ingredients with any of the lashes from her set. Do you have what it takes to compete with the Evil Queen?
Well my friends our journey through the Disney villains has come to an end.
First of all I want to thank Ardell for these, even though I wont wear them often is was nice to go back down memory lane, even just for a moment or two!
I think the Squidlet and I will do a Disney Villains makeover movie night since its the perfect season for it, yay for Halloween :)
I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did! It really took me back when I saw these for the first time.
They took me back to when I was a girl and Going to the movies meant something. Another time and another place, but I will never forget these characters. Now I am all grown up, but I can still play!
My favorite has always been Maleficent never knew why maybe because she can turn herself into a Dragon.
Hi, everyone. I hope you are all enjoying the season so far.
I wanted to share something I experienced in Walgreen's the other day. So I walked in and made a bee line for the beauty section as I always do :). And there were these two lovely ladies that worked there named Laura and Jessica. As soon as I entered asked if I needed any help, I responded with a "no, thanks, just looking".
I browsed around and found this funky mascara tester.
Which was cool in the fact that it lets you see what you would look like with amazing lashes.
So as I wandered up and down the beauty section there they were walking with me talking among themselves about beauty products, stuff they like and have tried themselves.
Then it started, we talked and talked for what seemed like an hour about beauty products! It was great, They helped me find my perfect shade in Foundation, concealer and a pressed powder.
After I have gathered all me goodies it was time to check out and we headed over to the beauty check stand. I punched in my dads Walgreen's number (I always use my dads number because he fills his prescriptions in and doesn't understand the point system, and I am not going telling him). And she tells me I have 3000 points! I was like, wait! I will be right back and ran down and picked up a bronzer that was 4.99 thinking I would only pay 1.99, right?
No, Laura goes to the back of the store and brings out this folder full of coupons and finds the one for the bronzer and I ended up only paying 88 cents for a full size bronzer! I was so shocked that they were so helpful and all it took was a simple conversation! She gave me other coupons too that helped lower the total.
And this got me thinking, when we are sick and aren't feeling well we talk to the pharmacist and chat with them about what they think is best for us to use. But we never talk to the lady in the beauty section.
these young ladies offered to hold coupons for me next time I am in the store.
So my point is, make friends with the beauty lady at your local drug store they can lead you to great deals and they do know what they are talking about they are in there all day and use these products themselves so they kinda know whats up. And once they heard I was a BB they got even more excited! I am so glad I have met them and will continue going back to them again.
I have included a short video on the haul and the products I picked up that night hope you enjoy!
Have you had a drug store beauty experience like this?
Okay, I admit it. I have a problem flicking, Winging, Cat eyeing my eyes. I think I have a lazy eye that is to lazy to be a real lazy eye. My eyes are different from one another and they are hooded. Over the years I have come up with personal ways to correct this with the illusion of eye shadow.
My eyes are hooded also adding to my problems, I'm not saying I hate my eyes, Because I don't. I am actually very happy with them once they are done the way I like them. However I do have a problem with a winged liner. You see, right at the outer corner of my eye they take a dip for the worse.
It has taken me years and a lot of trial and error to perfect this and get it down. I am not saying this method is the way everyone should do it. But it works for me to achieve the Look I want.
Some Products I have used to achieve my wing:
Milani Eye Tech Liner MakeupForever Liquid Aqua Liner
I love the Milani EYE TECH Liquid Liner. It goes on matte, the formula does get dry fast, so what I do is dab some on the back of my hand and dip is into the liquid then apply. It has wonderful staying power although it isn't as dark as I would like it to be, But that isn't nothing a black eye shadow on top wont handle.
Milani.com says: Full color flow thru system that delivers & defines a perfect line in one stroke. Felt tip nib applicator is easy to use, provides precise control with no skipping or pulling.
I do have a problem with the MakeupForever Liquid Aqua Liner. It is too shiny and it makes my liner looked like black wrinkled foil. It does irritate My eye some but Learned to use it as a sealer for my false lashes to cover and blend any unevenness pertaining to my lashes.It does last forever and a day.
Makeupforever.com says: Rich in polymers, this superior eyeliner offers an impeccable hold that guarantees water-, tear-, and smudge-proof color. Its ergonomic, foam-tip applicator is designed to resemble a makeup brush handle for the quickest, easiest, and most accurate application.
Some of my buddies from Youtube have suggested I do a tutorial on how I wing my liner. But it isn't an actual wing, I like to call it an illusion of a wing. I will be calling the tutorial "How to fake a cat eye".
I hope it will be useful and helpful to some people who find this hard or difficult to do. After all that's what makeup is right? Mute this, emphasize that? So that's what I am doing today.
Once I get the Video up I will be adding a Link to it on this Post. Wish me Luck!
Have you tired these liners? What are your thought on them?
Thanks for stopping by, May all your looks be flawless! :)
Fall is here. The leaves are turning, the sun will be going down earlier. But does that mean everything will have to tame down with the season?
Of course not! there is a whole color spectrum for us to choose from and right now this is a color combo I am loving!
Among my treats I found this gorgeous teal color from SmashBox pallet I got a while ago at Sephora.
I Love these colors. And I think they are perfect for this time of year with summer still in the air. In this look I used this lovely brown that has just a touch of shimmer but goes on matte, which if you know me, you know I adore mattes. Along with the Teal at the inner corner for that pop of color. I lined my eye using the MakeupForever liquid liner which I find irritates my eyes and a set of falsies from KARA.
I truly love this look and think it will look great on any eye. I used the Anastasia of Beverly hills brow pencil on my brows I love the formula and its ability to keep my brows in place.
Let me know what you think about this look for this time of year.?
I have many products that I use daily. But there are only a selected few that I truly love, Here are a few that I won't live without.
Anastasia of Beverly hills Perfect Brow Pencil. Anastasia.net says: Anastasia specially designed this pencil to apply and blend color into the brow to achieve a brow look so natural it looks like your own. With a velvety-smooth pencil on one end and a built in brow brush on the other, this product is perfect for anyone who wants to achieve a fuller brow look. Portable and convenient to apply and blend color into the brow with less to carry in your makeup bag.
The Highlighter Pencil This pencil brings subtle focus to the brow bone. Use the Matte side during the day to create a soft highlight.
