Maybelline Colossal Volume Review



This is possibly my favourite mascara, besides Benefits 'They're real'. Let's be honest though paying £19.50 for They're Real isn't always the cheapest of options, so this is my next best. Maybelline Colossal volume express is amazing for just £7.19. It get right into your lashes with no clumping and no transfer or crumbling. It lasts me all day (which is normally from around 7am to 9pm) with no problems whatsoever. In a mascara I look to make my eyelashes more voluminous more that anything else and you will definitely find it in this. I have also used the waterproof one before which is amazing for any soggy scenario. The packaging is good, screw on so no leakages and bright so I can always find it straight away. 

Safe to say this is my high-street go to mascara... for now.

How Much Is Your Face Worth?



ELF Studio Mineral Infused Face Primer (£6), Rimmel Concealer Wake Me Up (£5.49), ELF Eyelid Primer (£1.50), ELF Under Eye Concealer and & Highlighter (£3.75), Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder (£3.99), MUA Heaven and Earth Palette (£4),  Sleek Face Form Kit (£9.99), Rimmel Gel Liner (£6.49), Eylure Natural Lashes (£5.35), Max Factor Mascara Wild Mega Lash (£4.99), Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in Firecracker (5.49) = £57.04

All together I wouldn't say £57.04 was too bad, considering if this was all high end products I would have hit around at least £100! It was around where I was predicting the price would be so I'm not suprised at the outcome.

7 Deadly Sins Of Beauty Tag

Something a bit different from the usual and I'm hoping to do more 'tag' posts in the future. I hope you enjoy!

Greed
What is your most inexpensive beauty item? What is your most expensive?

My most inexpensive beauty item would have to be the MUA lipsticks which are only £1, they are so good for the price it is unbelievable! My most expensive is Look Flawless Fix Beauty Balm in Light, which was £10. Its a really good foundation type base, it matches to my skin colour well too! It's not too thick so it is great for summer.

Wrath
What beauty products do you have a love/hate relationship with? What product has been the hardest to get?

Fake eyelashes, I love how they look but I feel they are too much for my face. Applying them can be tricky too so they are not always my favourite thing to do and I would never use them on a daily basis. 

I have really wanted to try Maybellines Baby Lips for ages, but luckily they are coming to the UK really soon! 

Gluttony
What are your most delicious beauty products?

Definitely Blistex Raspberry Lemonade Blast, it smells amazing and works so well! 

Sloth
What beauty products do you neglect, due to laziness?

Eyelashes again, as I can't be bothered to take the time to stick them on when they just make my eyelids feel heavy.

Pride
What beauty product give you the most confidence? 

I would probably say foundation as it covers up any imperfections and makes my skin look more awake, however eye liner always plays a big part as I think it always finishes off my face. 

Lust
What attributes do you find most attractive in the opposite sex?

Definitely a nice smile and a caring personality! Oh and respect of course. 

Envy
What items would you most like to receive as a gift?

Probably a mac foundation (a red one) as they are always raved about and I can't afford one myself. I also like the Daisy by Marc Jacobs perfume!
