How long will they go ?

https://www.youniqueproducts.com/EvaThomas/business

I recently became a Younique Presenter, here is my web page. The reason I became a presenter was to add onto my adventure as a QC Makeup Academy student. I have loved makeup all of my life and decided I wanted to start a new career in my mature years.  You are never too old to start a new journey in life! So, I found Younique's product to be very interesting to a point I wanted to stock some of the products in my makeup artist case.

After doing a lot of research, reading different articles, watching different video's and listening to people share their experience with one of Younique's products, I thought why not share my view. There is no doubt that Youniques Moonstruck 3D Fiber Lashes has hit the news big time on the internet. 

Youniques Moonstruck 3D Fiber Lashes in among one of the most unique; makeup products I have ever used. The product only comes in black. You will receive two tubes of mascara products, one tube is a gel and the is a tube of fibers.  The tubes come in a nice little snap closure pouch and it also comes with an instruction booklet.

You begin by applying a coat of gel.  I have learned, only work on one eye at a time. If you try doing both eyes at once, the fibers will not stick to the gel as well.  I have found and also have seen videos that talk about when you are applying your gel, be sure to apply it to the front and back of your lashes. Wait a couple of seconds and apply the second tube that holds the fibers. Wait a second and add another layer of gel.  For most people one layer gives them the length they want, so they stop there.  I have personally stopped at two layers, but I have to tell you.. my mind wants to know how long will they go

I do love this mascara, I have never used anything like it before. One of my favorite things is, the mascara does not feel heavy on my lashes AND it stays put until you take it off. I can only say good things about this product.  You just have to remember: after you apply the fibers be sure to seal them with another coat of gel. That is very important!

So I would love to see, or watch any videos you may have that shows how long you have taken your lashes!!  If you share the link, I would be than happy to post it on this page. So until next time, if you would like to follow me, I will follow you back.

February 2016 Ipsy Review

Feb 2016 GlamBag Review for Ipsy makeup subscription

So here it is, my review on my February 2016 Ipsy Package!! Needless to say, I loved my package this month. It is my first one and I am truly looking forward to seeing others!!.  So I am going to give you "Ipsy" a "10" this month. The package was truly worth the $10 subscription price.  I cannot wait to see what you have planned for next month!! If you would like to join me and see what we get in March 2016 come and join me click here 


Smashbox- Photo Finish Primer Oil

I am pretty excited about this primer.. This primer has 15 different oil combinations including jojoba, chamomile and Lavender oils.  It smells fantastic!  I have been reading a lot of the reviews and many women are talking about how good it feels on their mature skin.  I am also reading that many women will take a drop the oil and add it to their foundation.  This primer helps to reduce the appearance of dry fine lines and it absorbs quickly.

I did a patch test on my chin, it did absorb fast. I added a little foundation over the same area and it felt amazing.  I am very impressed with the way it makes my skin feel. Yes, I have mature skin and especially during the colder months my skin gets extremely dry! I will be applying this to my whole fast the next time I do a full face makeup.  So far on a scale 1-10 I would rate this an easy 10


Mr. Write Now Eyeliner by: The Balm

Okay, let's just start right here... this eyeliner alone cost MORE than the monthly subscription for Ipsy! Yes, this eyeliner cost $17.00 retail.. so automatically this is a great thing! It has staying power like W.O.W. Since I have brown eyes, this color goes with my eyes great!  It is a gold bronze color that is truly so beautiful!! The tip will remain sharp because it has a built in sharpener. Did I mention it glides on beautifully?   I already love this liner, the place I tested the color on my hand has not moved!! So yeah, it for sure has staying power! And  last but not least, it can be used on the waterline too!! On a scale 1-10  No doubting it easy "10"



SeraphineBotanicals-Carrot and Rose Hydrating Cream


LOVE it!! When I first opened my Ipsy package, this was the first product I picked up, opened and immediately put on my hands. To me... it smells beyond wonderful!! It is a light hydrating cream that can be used on your body and your face.  It is Vegan, GMO and Gluten free, this company does NOT test on animals!! I am telling you from experience, this cream is NOT sticky, it absorbs into your skin fast and it leaves your skin feeling like silk.. on a scale 1-10 I easily give it a 10!!


tre'Stique Baby Blush Stick

Can we say awwwwww!!!!! The packaging is so darn cute!!  I am only going to share this because I know I am NOT the only person who did this. When I opened my Ipsy cosmetic bag and pulled out this blush stick I kept searching for the top and/or lid. Yeah, I did not know the lid was on it because it looks just like the product so... okay you got me there! 

This is a beautiful cream gel blush that glides across your face leaving feeling silky with a little color.  I absolutely love it!  The color Ipsy sent was Bora Bora Coral. It goes really good with my skin tone.  I draw a few lines on the apple of my cheeks and used a blush brush and blended it in. It gives you a soft tint, not hard and rough looking.  I am actually considering purchasing the full size of this blush.  The full size has a little contour brush on the other end of it which would make the application even easier. On a scale 1-10 yeah, easily a "10"!!



Naked Cosmetics- Sierra Nevada 
(which is a beautiful fine gold powder)

Tell me a girl who does not love sparkles and I will do a flip for you! This gold powder is very, very fine and so beautiful!  I read this article about a Goth look I absolutely love.. it is where you add sparkles to a dark lipstick.. so wanting to test this product, I put on one of Kat Von D's very pink lip-stain and took a brush and added this gold powder to the middle of my lips.. OMG, it worked great.  The more I looked around on their site, I figured out this powder can be added to a clear base and can be used for lips, eyes, skin and/or if you add some to some hair gel, you could even use it like that (at least I would)!

Yeah, this stuff is really cool.. on a scale 1-10 I am going to give it a
