I've got two new products that I recently tried out both from the Kat Von D Brand. One is a big hit and the other a huge miss. Stick around to the end of this post for a mini giveaway!
Lets start with the mascara. This is the Kat Von D Immortal Lash mascara. It caught my eye in Sephora about a month ago because its new and the brush on it is SO cool. You can see in the picture below it has all little spikes on it and then a spiky ball at the very tip.
I gave it two chances to be great and both times it failed. The brush is so stiff on it, it has no "give" whatsoever and actually hurt a bit while I was putting it on. It gave good length but not much volume. This one had to go back to the store.
Well, just because I didn't like the mascara didn't mean I wasn't going to give the liner a chance. This is the Kat Von D Ink! Liner in Trooper and it's new as well. Remember how much I said I loved the Maybelline Felt Tip liner? Well this one is even better then the Maybelline one.
The felt tip is so thin and precise, it is so easy to make a very small line or a nice big one. It glides on smoothly, wears all day, is extremely dark black and just all around easy to use. You do have to shake it before using it to really get that black color out. Some people have said they thought it dried out quickly but I've had mine for two months now and its still going strong.
It retails for $18 and you can get it at Sephora.
Here it is compared to the Jordana liner I did a post on a few posts back. See how thin the tip is?! And how much blacker it is compared to the Jordana one?
And now for a little mini giveaway to say sorry for being gone these past few weeks! I am giving away two mini versions of two awesome mascaras. One is my all time favorite: Two Faced Better Then Sex. The second is another great one: Tarte Lights Camera Lashes. These are deluxe sample sizes and have never been used.
So how can you win them!? Well, all you have to do is share my blog on your Facebook, Twitter or Instagram! Help me spread the word about it.
Also leave a comment down below either with an idea for a future post OR which post has been your favorite so far. Or both! I will announce the winner on Facebook and on here on July 15th and then mail your prize out to you.

ReplyDeleteI like on the post how you referred back to a different post of yours when you were writing about the liner. I also like how honest you were about the mascara.

You should feature some etsy store cosmetics!
I would like to see a post about how to hide my forehead wrinkles with makeup. My applications of makeup only appear to make it worst.

ReplyDeleteI think you should have more posts on different styles and ways to wear make-up
I shared on Google plus and twitter.... I really like your makeup style. It's so simple. I'm a big fan of natural looking makeup that still looks almost dramatic in a way. I think you should do more eye shadow reviews. I love Urban Decay's colors.
ReplyDeleteI shared via tumblr (Holly Mitkowski) and I love this post bc I LOVE Kat Von D and I had no idea about this product!

ReplyDeleteI liked your post about getting manicures to last. With kids and being active I can never get mine to last.
An idea for a future post, maybe a back to school theme. Also, I shared it on my facebook page. Link is https://www.facebook.com/angelia.medlin.3
