Too Faced 'Lashlight' Mascara & Award!

[Don't forget to enter my one-year giveaway!]

Hello, all! A super hello (lol) to my newer followers!

Today's post will be jam packed so keep reading! I will try to keep text limited. *looks at finished post* just kidding, text will not be too limited. I tried though... LOL.

I was gifted the Too Faced 'Lashlight' Mascara (a big thank you to my friend 'E' who probably won't ever read this LOL) so I decided I'd review it and show you guys! I don't see too many people reviewing this so I hope you guys don't mind. You can get this product here.



Why is this mascara so unique? Because it LIGHTS up! Yes, it has LED LIGHTS! I thought that was exciting enough to be in caps, sorry LOL. I'm still new to Too Faced as this is only my second product (first was this one) but it hasn't disappointed me yet.




There is a button at the top of the handle in which you can turn off and on.

The mascara, overall, was pretty good. It clumped the ends of my lashes a bit but it was very black, which I appreciate. It has a typical looking wand but it's smaller than some other wands I've seen, which works better in my opinion because it's less likely that you'll over-apply.



It also comes with a mirror on the side so you can see up close while you apply it. Now you don't have to worry about missing any part of your lashes or applying to much on one side. It IS easy for it to start clumping, I think, so I would suggest to be careful while using it. But I suppose this can apply to any mascara. It lengthens and provides volume but it lengthens more than it volumizes(?), does that make sense? Lol, I will let some of my pictures explain this as well.



And this is how it looks on me.. dun dun dun.
*Warning: I take very bad pictures of my eyes.



My normal lashes.



Curled.



Here's the process! It's not as scary as it looks, the light is not blinding!



Here is the end result (one coat). So as you can see, there is a little clumping here and there but it holds my curls nicely (it's quite difficult for me to find a mascara like this so this is pretty good).

In short: 3.8/5

Too Faced Eye Shadow Insurance Policy

[Don't forget to enter my one-year giveaway!]

Hello, hello! Hope everyone has been well!

Today I will be blogging about Too Faced - Eye Shadow Insurance Policy. It comes with a full-sized Too Faced Shadow Insurance (it's a classic, I'm sure you've heard of it) and a palette with six gorgeous shades.

This palette is totally worth it. Why is this so worth it? Because it's currently on sale on the Too Faced website for $19. It was originally $38. It's also worth it because the shadow insurance alone goes for $18. So for another dollar, you can get a palette with some neutral and some popping colors!

I'm going to briefly review the palette (since I know everyone knows about the primer, lol). I will let my pictures do some of the explaining now.




I think that the little stretchy thing on the side for the shadow insurance is kinda cute, lol.



The palette! I don't know how or when I'll use Skinny Dip and Lucky Charms but they're great colors nonetheless. My favorite are Full Frontal, Glamazon, Socialite - if you couldn't guess, haha.


(no flash- from left to right w/ no primer: Full Frontal, Glamazon, Socialite, Boy Toy, Lucky Charms, Skinny Dip).

One downside, however, is the cardboard(?) packaging. Very study but cardboard is cardboard. I don't like to depot because I like keeping things the way they originally were and it's not THAT bad but I don't think it would have hurt to make the packaging out of something other than cardboard. But the price wouldn't have been the same I guess.

In short, a 4.5/5 - I honestly think it would be difficult for me to not like it.

I'm still new to Too Faced though. Do you guys have any of their products you'd recommend? Or maybe something you'd want to try? Let me know! :)
