I'm Back!!

Hey guys!! I'm back!! It's been what? 2 months?! Sorry guys, it's been crazy busy.

So today, I've got the Maybelline Falsies Big Eyes and the Cailyn Line-fix Gel Eyeliner.

First up, Cailyn. I got this in my June ipsy Glam Bag, and I love it!! This is my first ever gel liner and it was so easy to use. The color is in Iron, a kinda gray color. Not too dark, not too light. I don't like using brown eyeliner because I like it a bit darker than that, but black is way too dark for me to handle. This color is perfect.

The gel liner goes on so smoothly, and I love that the brush clicks into the top of the container, it's one less thing to worry about losing and it keeps the brush clean inside my purse. Yay! I give it a 9/10.

Now the mascara. I love Maybelline mascaras, especially the Falsies series. My favorite is the Winged Falsies. Anyway, the commercials for this mascara promises two sets of mascara brushes, one each for your upper and lower lashes. Used together, it's supposed to make your eyes pop.

I'm not sure if I like this mascara. It doesn't make my eyelashes as long or as thick as the original Falsies mascara unless I do maybe 20 strokes per eye. The mini brush for the bottom lashes works well, although I don't usually use mascara on those. I find this mascara also tends to smudge onto my skin, giving me a shadow-y raccoon look. Yuck. As a mascara, though, it seems to be ok but it doesn't make my eyes any bigger. I have chinky eyes, I need the boost. I give it a 6/10.
