Mascara- A Practical But Fun One

I am a lazy, lazy girl. I'm sorry. I've been slacking TREMEMDOUSLY on YouTube and the BlogWorld. Oops :) Forgiven? Yes? Great!

Ok. Tonight, I am going to talk to you all about.....



Yep, Collection 2000 Collagen Curl Mascara. I have it in the shade Plum, and I adore it. The brush, as you can see, is curved, and is at exactly the right angle to fit around all my lashes at the same time, so it is SO easy to apply! I find it goes on really nicely and doesn't clump at all, even with multiple coats. It is really easy to use in a rush too, as a single coat givs just the right amount of definition to look 'done' enough that you don't HAVE to hang around and apply further coats.

The colour Plum works for me really well as I have bluey-green eyes, and it really makes them pop, without looking like a man purple colour. I also find that in the right lights, it makes my eyes appear different colours, so in natural light they might look green, then under fluorescents, they might look blue. It's really cool! Haha.

But, the best thing about this mascara, is that it's SUCH good value! £4.89 a tube in Boots, and about the same in Superdrug. Now, don't get me wrong, I wouldn't rank this quite up there with Diorshow, but it's definitely along side Clinique.

I hope this was a little bit interesting, hopefully expect another post on Thursday or Friday, and perhaps a suprise on Sunday.... :P

I am SO EXHAUSTED!!

Hello blogworld,

As the title of this post suggests, I am SO TIRED! Seriously. I have so much going on at the moment! You want to know what? You sure you have time? Ok.

1. School - I am taking 5 GCSEs this year, all of which I have missed a year of, so am having to work double time to catch up on.

2. Because of the gaps in my timetable (I took some GCSEs last year), if I have one or two lessons in the morning I go home for the rest of the day. Fine, right? However, I have to then trek BACK to school to either do a catch up after school lesson, maths review session or astronomy, which is after school and one of the GCSEs I'm taking.

3. I just got myself a Christmas temp job! Now I don't want you to think I'm moaning about this, I'm not, it's just another thing on top of my school work load. Cuz on the days when I only have morning lessons, I'm going to be working in the afternoons, then I'll be doing a few late night shopping, and weekends. So I really am happy to have this job, especially s it's at such an amazing company, but it is rather stressing me out remembering all the info we were told on the training days, as well as how to balance the Haber process.

4. My parents. Ugh. Seriously guys, do they REALLY think I don't care about my exams and that I want to fail in life? Oh well.

5. Sleeping. There is something so wrong with my sleep cycle at the moment! Why did I fall asleep in Chemistry this morning after getting more sleep than I have in a week?

So, yeah. I really don't want to sound moany, I just thought I'd update you on what's going on :)I posted a skincare routine video last night, and I will be uploading a brush review video tonight hopefully! I've been trying to think of blog posts I can do, and I was thinking maybe a shopping experiences series? Because I ADORE all things Christmas, but I find it so interesting to watch as the hysteria builds, I mean, they're already closing roads in the Town Centre where I live to start putting up the Christmas lights! Yep, ok, decision made. A blog a week entitled The Christmas Experience :) I'll also try and do another blog a week about other things, maybe a new product I've found that I don't have time to film about, or just a rambly one like today.

Hope you got to the end, and if you did, I applaud you!

Lots of love,

Megs
