Makeup Junkie

The makeup life of a beauty blogger and cosmetics connoisseur

FOTD: Lip Gloss & Defined Eyes (Basic)

We're in a recession, ladies, as you know, so I have been hitting up that good CVS for those cheap cosmetic goodies! For the time being the only high-end stuff I use is what I get for free in the mail to review, as I am hoarding every precious dollar I earn for non-material needs.

My recession obsessions right now are L'Oreal Double Extend mascara and Rimmel Volume Boost lip gloss in Attract. Rimmel Volume Boost looks and feels just like MAC Lustreglass, for $10 cheaper! I'm sure you'll love it as much as I do.

L'Oreal Double Extend mascara is one of those double-sided tubes with white primer on one end and mascara on the other. I applied it before applying Andrea's human hair false lashes for more length. Together they give a pretty *bat your eyelashes* look. I kept it simple with Wet & Wild liquid eyeliner. No blush! Just a little powder foundation.

I wore this look to a 3am Steak & Shake breakfast with my best friend, so there was no need for glam.

Video tutorial on something coming soon!

LOL that's pretty glam for a dinner at 3am IMO! Eyes look great though. I hope the tutorial is how to do fierce eyebrows 'cause yours look amazing!

I'm the same way now! But I have to agree with rostasuicide - this is pretty glam!

Those lashes look really nice on you as well as the lip gloss.

@MAKEUPprecious -- I've sworn by falsies ever since senior year when I made them "me" and my crush said, "Are you wearing fake eyelashes? ...They look nice on you." LOL! wow.
