Hey Everyone!

I want to start off this review by saying that, I LOVE this palette! It comes in 6 different shades, 3 matte and 3 shimmer. The matte shades are great for when you want a natural look for everyday or if you just prefer wearing matte eye shadow over shimmer. There is not a bad thing I have to say about this eye shadow, once you wear a primer before application the product does not fade and even without primer you get a decent 6 hour wear.  For night time or whenever you prefer you can vamp up your look like this smokey eye I created: 




Here are swatches:




This is my go-to palette and I highly recommend this! Not to mention at a great price!

Hello Everyone!!!

Welcome. Today I am here to talk about Mac's Zoom Fast Black Lash Mascara. I received this mascara as a gift from my boyfriend over this past Christmas and I really like it. The brush is thin and small enough to reach every lash. The first time I wore it, I was wowed!! My eyelashes looked false, I am mixed with Asian so I have the wimpy non thick lashes that grow downward so try to imagine my reaction lol. It held the curl pretty much all day when I wore it, so I was definitely happy about that. Lashes feel soft and flexible.

Now on to the things I did not like about this mascara, I do not know if this comes in waterproof but the one I received is not but I would still expect it to hold up better in humidity and drizzle. It gives light smudging hence light raccoon eyes. This may be a bit on the pricey side for some, I would say go for the Loreal Voluminous Million Lashes if you want something a little bit cheaper and a little bit better.

All in all this is a great mascara if you want that intense black, smokey smoldering effect! 

Thank you for reading, it was a pleasure having you <3
