Hey Pretties,
When i began to get more interested in makeup, Maybelline's Great Lash Mascara was one of the most talked about mascaras & you know how we humans are, we are usually compelled to do stuff because someone else said good things about it.
And so i decided to give it a try,but i was truly not so happy with the results.
Pros:
- It's truly black, but not as dark as i like it
- It originally is cheap
Cons :
- The mascara & assumedly it's brush does absolutely nothing to call one's lash GREAT,at least not mine. No Length, No Volume :-(
- It's not water-proof,yuck!
- I got it for =N=1,500 here, but it felt like a waste of money till i tried using a disposable wand.
Verdict
I won't repurchase unless the wand and formulation gets changed. But hey,the 'Lots of Lashes' Version was created. I'll review that once i lay my hands upon it.
xoxo

HAUL FIESTA : Black opal
You would agree that this is a very small haul, but hey, i bought it & im proud of it,lol. I went to the Popular Kuddy Store in Lagos island (If you reside in Lagos, Kuddy stores are located in Lagos Island, Osolo way in Ajao estate, Trade Fair Complex Ojo & Ikota Shopping Complex Lekki) & stocked on some Black Opal Products.
Why you would ask? Well,im a great fan of Sam Fine's & he doesnt hesitate recommending black opal to anyone who cares to listen. While in school & still familiarising myself with beauty products, i used black opal & because back then ,i didnt understand my skin & its needs, i felt black opal wasnt good enough a brand.
So,i decided to act in faith once more & get a few items. I absolutely love their blushes because they are pigmented enough to be used on the eyes,not so much as an eyeshadow but to contour.
So i purchased a gold eyeshadow, a peach toned blush, stick foundations, loose powders & Mascara(i will do reviews on each of these products later)
So, if you are looking for an affordable brand which was also made with the black skin in mind, pls try Black Opal
