Those Rare Few...

Hello :)

I rarely finish a product and its even more rare if I purchase it again because I'm always trying out different things. I'll start using the product for a few weeks and then the novelty wears off, but below are products I've finished and re-purchased:

Nivea Lip Care Pearl and Shine £2-£3 depending on the store. I have so many lip balms and this is one of the only ones I've stuck to. Firstly, because its a stick lip balm which means my hands won't get messy. Secondly, it makes your lips smooooooth and thirdly, leaves your lips with a gorgeous pearly shine.

Collection 2000 Volume Sensation £4.99. Although I do use different mascara's, this is the only one I've re-purchased (about 6 times). I love my mascara's to have large bristle brushes and this has exactly that.

Boots Intensive Hair Masks £1.99. I use these everyday as a normal conditioner so no wonder I go through so many! They leave my hair silky soft :) Review for these can be found here.

Body Treatment Cocoa Body Butter (Have only found in Wilkinsons) around £1. I've written a review for this here. Smells gorgeous, leaves skin really soft, same size as a large Bodyshop's body butter and is extremely cheap!

A little parcel (:

My parcel from pandadoesmakeup arrived :D
Thank you again!

Along with the Maybelline Colossal Volum' Express Mascara was a little note, a few cute business cards with her details on & two Barry M dazzle dust samples (The colours match the mascara!)

Here are the swatches of the samples. Left to right: Number 90, Number 76
These are a lot prettier in real life!

Maybelline Colossal Volum' Express Mascara:
I've tried this mascara a few times now & I really like it. It gives your lashes a lot of length and volume as the brush is big and packed with bristles.

Comparing it to my favourite mascara-
Collection 2000 Volume Sensation:
These mascaras are pretty similar as they both give amazing length and volume, but Collection 2000 Volume Sensation has more compact bristles on the brush and this gives your lashes that little extra length and volume. (& it is only a little extra. These mascaras are very close in comparison!)

So in conclusion, Maybelline's Colossal Volum' Express Mascara is very good and I would recommend it, but my trusty Collection 2000 Volume Sensation is that little bit better.
