Ooooh the taboo subject of...*whispers*...facial hair!! Ok well maybe it's not "taboo", but it's one of those things most women aren't comfortable talking about -- understandably. I'm gonna attempt to break that ice for you all, because it is something that so many of us face and stress over quietly. Lots of women refuse to go out in public donning their 2 o'clock shadows in an effort to get it removed professionally. Well now you really don't have to.

I got a wild hair up my butt to go grab a few drugstore mascaras and put them against each other. I picked up four mascaras total, but we're gonna focus on Maybelline's "The Falsies" and Rimmel's "The Max". Two products promising the same thing: to volumize your lashes. But which one delivers?

I went to CVS today just to browse and walked out with way too much crap. I'm taking some of it back, actually -- because it sucks. I need to do something about impulse shopping, especially at CVS where almost everything is overpriced by at least a buck or two. Anyway, I finally picked up a mascara I've been meaning to try, but was trying to be responsible and limit my mascara intake so that I didn't end up wasting any tubes. I am a hardcore mascara junkie trying to pass this mascara-rehab situation with flying colors. So the pretty purple tube pulled me in -- the flesh is weak. I liked the original Covergirl LashBlast
, but I didn't looove it. The original promised lots of volume, and this new LashBlast Fusion promises volume and length (a CG first) -- but does it deliver?

I can't even begin to tell you how far drugstore foundations have come over the years. I remember back in high school, every girl who wore foundation had a ring around her shirt collar. It was a dead, orangey giveaway that was never flattering. I always saw it after gym class, when she'd be all sweaty and crap. Her makeup would melt off and party on her shirt collar -ugh. I never wanted to have that symbolic orangey brown makeup collar so I avoided foundations altogether. I just felt they'd look cakey and unnatural, so I was like "Screw it!".

Physicians Formula is a brand I often walk right past whenever I go to any given drugstore. Not because I'm uninterested, but mainly because I'm overwhelmed and they just have so much stuff to choose from. I'd go crazy and the flesh is so weak. There's been a buzz over this one particular product and I just couldn't pass it up! You no longer need to spend a lot of money on incredible, high-quality gel liners. Physicians Formula debuted a new (and amazing) line of gel liner trio's for specific eye colors (Brown, Blue, Green and Hazel). It doesn't matter what your eye color is, you can buy all four sets, but they just separated them to make it easier for beginners to stick to colors that would compliment their individual eye color. I picked up the 'Brown Eyes' set, but please believe I'll be back to get a few of the others. They're on sale right now at CVS for 40% off the $10.95 price tag, so scoot your juicy booties on over there and pick these up!

There's a ton of things that make me happy, but I'm gonna tell you one thing in specific. Finding super awesome drugstore gems! The Liquif-Eye Metallic Eye Pencils are absolute love! At just $5.49 a piece while having to neighbor an aisle full of cottony menstrual solutions, they're a steal! I picked three of the five colors up from my local CVS several weeks ago, and I've seriously fallen in love with them. I got them in Black, Brown and Silver. I still need to get my hands on the Gold and Aqua colors, but my raggedy CVS never has those colors in stock. Womp. The fact that these pencils cost so little, yet are completely comparable to a creamy high-end pencil is truly amazing...and we love that don't we?
