Covergirl Lash Bust

Hello Darling Dolls!
Aside from picking the wrong NYX lipstick, I haven’t run into many products that I absolutely despise. I could write 100 blogs on hair products that I hate, but when it comes to makeup I’m usually good at picking the right items.
Wait! Before I get into my hate for today, let me THANK everyone for all of your love and support! Tasha and I are so excited that we’re up to 1000+ views!!!!! 🙂 Thank you, thank you, and thank you times 1000!
Now back to the matter at hand. I had a coupon (of course) for Covergirl eye and lip products, so I decided to buy a lipstick and I wanted to try a mascara since I haven’t used anything but Maybelline Stilletto for the past 4 years & recently Maybelline XXL. Prior to, I used Telescopic by L’Oreal. I loved it so much I used it as a product for an advertising class in college and even gave away tubes of telescopic to the girls in my classroom! (It was only 6 of us in the class). Then I tried that “Telescopic Explosion” mascara by L’Oreal with the applicator shaped like a ball. It was so terrible that I quit using L’Oreal all together. I switched to Stiletto by Maybelline and I’ve been in love since.
Drew Barrymore is always on TV or in a magazine LYING about how great Covergirl Lashblast lengthens and volumizes her lashes. I wonder how much they’re paying Drew. Not that I truly believe these celebrities use the products they advertise, but Covergirl would have to pay me extra to lie and promote Lashblast. I purposely didn’t clean the tube so that you can see how it’s already clumpy and gross. I have only had this mascara for 1 WEEK! I have to apply 17 coats for it to even begin to work. Please do not waste your money on this mascara, even if you do have a coupon. It’s not worth it! If you want drugstore mascara, go for Maybelline! AND I just got a PG Saver coupon in the mail. If you like liquid eyeliner, Stiletto also has a liner and it was $2.50 at Wal-Mart. It’s usually about $8. I’m not sure why it rung up as $2.50 the other day, but I’m not complaining.
This officially concludes my Covergirl rant! Right now, I want to go rack up on Stilletto & XXL just to make sure I’m fully stocked! If you like Lashblast, then let me know. Maybe I’m doing something wrong. I hear that Clinque has good mascara that’s worth the money. I’m not against trying mascaras, so give me some suggestions!
Carpe Diem Dolls,
Tashara ❤

You are right – Maybelline mascara is really good. I just recently switch over to Maybelline Volume Express Falsies Flared and it is awesome. It lasts forever and I only need 2 coats.
I’ll have to try that. I keep hearing good things about Falsies. I used it a long time ago and didn’t like it, but I will definitely try it again!
You are SO right! I found some Lash Blast on clearance at Target and it sucks! But, it is one of the few I’ve tried that will allow you to add multiple coats before clumping. However, it takes several coats to achieve the look I want and that’s disappointing. The best I ever used was Maybelline’s Lash Stylist (it had a comb instead of a brush). The 2nd best was L’Oreal’s Voluminous Million Lashes. When using Lash Stylist, I was always asked if my lashes were falsies. Too bad it was discontinued long ago. 😦
I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t favor LashBlast! Have you tried Stiletto or XXL by Maybelline? I seriously live and breathe for it! I’ve tried the comb mascara, but I didn’t like it either. I think that’s because I couldn’t get used to the comb!
