I'm A Druggie!

OK I do not have a drug problem! When I say druggie I'm referring to beauty products that drugstores carry, mass products. We all know (or may not know) that mass (drugstore) and prestige (department store) products are one in the same! Half of them are made in the same factories, the only difference is the price, brand, and service that you get. When I was younger I bought all of my products from drugstores, if Walgreens or CVS had it, I had it too! As I got older, I became fancy! I only wanted my beauty products to come from department stores! The more they cost the higher the quality...WRONG! It's all the same! So here are a few of my favorites that get me 'right' at a reasonable price!

Lash Stiletto Mascara by Maybelline, +/- $7 (my favorite lengthening mascara)

Skin Brightening Daily Scrub by Aveeno Naturals, $9

Burt's Bees Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil, $3

Exact Eyelights by CoverGirl, $9

Infallible Never Fail Lip Gloss by L'Oreal, $9

Dream Matte Mousse Foundation by Maybelline, $9

Stiletto's for your Lashes!


I recently did a research paper for the world's largest cosmetic company in the world: Maybelline New York. I've always have been a fan of their products and an even bigger fan of their mascara's. While doing the paper and going in depth with the background of the company I gained a whole new respect for them. There was so much about the company that I did not know that it made me want to buy more of their products. I already have their classic pink tube green top Great Lash mascara and I love it. I decided to try their latest mascara called Lash Stiletto. The marketing advertisements and concepts for this product are genius! "The only mascara that does for the lashes what stilettos do for the legs," is the tag line and I LOVE IT! I'm totally obsessed with mascaras so I had to have this one. I say this a lot but Lash Stiletto truly is the best mascara I've used thus far! I couldn't believe how long my eyelashes were extended and with no clumps. I found these before and after photos of a girl who used the product, and look at how long her eyelashes became! This product definitely gives prestige cosmetics a run for their money, retailing between $7 and $10 and with stellar results, you can't go wrong! Highly recommend this product to any an everyone that will listen! "Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Maybelline!"
