Odds and Ends

On this dreary, dark, and rainy Sunday, I was feeling tired and lazy so I decided to experiment with some new products that I bought at Ulta Beauty on Friday.

One of the items I picked up was this lip gloss for hydrating and plumping up your lips. It is strawberry flavored with a hint of sweet lavender and it has a cute little heart-shaped clicker at the bottom to move it out of the applicator ...

Another item I bought was this ColourPop pallet with neutral colors called "Feelin' Bubbly" to use with my Chanel Noir Allure colored mascara, "Orange Bruni" ...

To be honest, I seldom wear eyeshadow, but when I do I try to wear one that will compliment the color mascara I am using.

The following is my personal list of the best colored mascaras with the most color payoff and bang for your buck!! And, of the worst colored mascaras that I have tried.
