Makeup I'm Throwing Away

Lash Booster Mascara by Pixi

** (two stars out of five)

Positive:

It goes on very nicely, it comes off with makeup remover very cleanly, the color is consistent, and works well with my lashes.  It gives a very full, wispy, natural-look on my lashes that I actually really like.

Great for a natural-beauty everyday look.

Why I'm throwing it away:

It crumbles after just a few hours, and then falls under my eyes, then it smears when I try to brush it away.

I don't have time to do touchups on mascara, when there's better mascaras out there and dark circles under my eyes are just not sexy.

If you want that magical, natural, wispy volume without the crumbles, try Supreme Lash Mascara by Merle Norman.

Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner Marker by Stila $20

Positive:

**** (Four stars out of five.)

This is an awesome liquid eyeliner.  It does absolutely everything that an eyeliner should do.  It has consistent color, lasts all day, is easy to apply (Well, about as easy as any liquid liner can be.), and looks great all day.  The only reason why it gets four stars and not five, is the price.

But, to be totally an completely fair, it's lasted me for a really long time. I've had it for about a year.  (Which, I know, I probably should have thrown it away, because liquid liners expire after about six months, but . . .)

Why I'm throwing it away:

Lol. It's empty and I need to buy more.

OR

I may buy some Onyx Eyeliner by Be A Bombshell Cosmetics.  Because it is perfect eyeliner. So perfect that someone literally stole it from me. Also it is only $14. It started running out sooner than the Stila eyeliner did, but it does give a smoother line for me.

I can't decide.

Fergie Centerstage Photo Op Eyeshadow Palette in Desert Festival by Wet N' Wild

Positive:

Okay, so I'm not actually throwing it in the trash, but I'm definitely giving it away.

The shadows are actually really nice, they go on smoothly, the pigment is where it should be, the matte colors are matte, the shimmer colors are translucent, and they apply well.

Why I'm giving it away:

The palette just doesn't have my colors.

I'd like to think I'm pretty good with makeup, and I can and do make it work from time to time, but that takes a bit more effort than I'm willing to give. Besides, this would look better on someone more tan than me.

I also have other palettes with similar colors that I just like better, and go together better on me.

And I'm trying really hard to not be a hoarder.

Bye guys!
