Oh Chanel, how you make my heart pitter-patter with the stroke of your fabulous mascara...with the blackest formula I've ever used! I absolutely love and adore this mascara and need it in my life.

I received this item to review from my good friend in lipstick, Linda. She asked that I review it so here we go :)

I know most of you probably already own this product, or have at least seen/heard about it. It's everywhere! In ads all over the place, pretty much everyone and their mama has one in the beauty community on Youtube, they're all over Ebay. You cannot escape them. I'm talking about the infamous 120-color eyeshadow palette. The coloring book size double-stack eyeshadow palette with 120 juicy colors.
