Hello everyone! I suffered from acne for quiet a long time and it bothered me quiet a lot, i was Insecure, i had Low Self- Confidence-- I basically hated my appearance and tried almost every product to get rid of acne, but non really worked. I used makeup to pile on and hide it which was a big No-no! it only made it worst as you can imagine. BUT! i've discovered products that helped me get rid of my acne or at least prevent them! I know many people suffer from that as well, so i'm going to share my solution! hopefully it'll help you as well! :) I have oily skin, so these products are best suited for people with Combination-Oily skin.

It's water based, provides light to medium c...

GIVENCHY NOIR COUTURE 4 IN ONE MASCARA REVIEW

Image
Hello Everyone~! I'll be reviewing a High end Mascara (GIVENCHY NOIR COUTURE 4 IN ONE MASCARA). What it claims:    " A four-in-one mascara that creates intense volume, strong curl, infinite length, and complete lash care. Noir Couture instantly thickens, lengthens and curls your lashes it strengthens and nourishes them with ingredients like artemia salina, cotton nectar and oxazolidone, a lipid that protects and restructures the lashes. Imagine lashes that look as beautiful undressed as they do dressed, in couture! TIP: When removing mascara saturate lashes with makeup remover and wait for 15 seconds. Then, gently slide the mascara off lashes from root to tip, being careful not to pull, twist or rub."  What I think : It defiantly created great volume, my lashes were twice their usual length. It curled them and thickened them as well! I loved that about it!  BUT, it tends to clump which i'm not a fan of. Packaging: ...
