Benefit They're Real!

When they're real mascara first launch or it was still pretty new then, I was in HK. I did not want to spend so much money in other currency, so I did not buy them. Anyway, it was quite pricey, when my fav Anna Sui mascara then was only half the price. But I was still intrigue that a mascara can promise fake lashes look.

A few years later, I got the mini mascara. I am not sure how I feel about it. I love the wand. I love the tip of the wand. It makes getting into the corner of the eyes easily. At the same time, the wand is kind of big. And I wish it were smaller.

When I first use it, I don't like the formula. I don't like the formula for a long time. When it finally becomes more dry, it finally works for me. As you can see I do have to curl my lashes for it to actually be nicely done. It doesn't curl for you.
I find that it doesn't hold the curl very well. It is also very crisp and I don't like that. I have to be careful not to touch my eyes or my lashes will stick together.
I can't apply it to the lower lashes, not that I have any, as it will smudge. For top lashes, I will have to stay still for a while for the mascara to be fully dry.

My lashes doesn't look like I've put on fake lashes. It just look normal. If I layer it on, it will clump on me. So I tried to love it, in a way I do like it, but it just wasn't the one for me. It also can be hard to remove. Not my fav mascara but also not the worse. Wouldn't purchase it on my own, but if it's free, I wouldn't mind.

Givenchy Le Rose Perfecto Lip Balm

This is in the shade 201, creamy and a hint of light milky pink. I like that it is pretty, but the shade doesn't really suit me. What I like best is that they can engrave your name on the packaging. So it is pretty. 

Yves Rocher Organic Vanilla

Christmas set right here. Love the scent. It's like a perfume vanilla. Not like vanilla extract but still quite good. I don't know, there is just something about it that makes me like it. So this set comes with 3 item. The shower puff, gel and lotion.  Silky Lotion is quite a watery lotion. I so used to squeeze bottle from TBS that this feels weird. The plastic is harder, so can't really clamp between my fingers. But the lotion flow out nicely. It's liquid-like and easy to apply. Sometime it feels like pour out to much. I guess also cause the opening is quite big. Blends into the skin and absorb quickly. Doesn't makes the skin feels sticky. Really good. Really love. Shower Gel is also very watery. It's like a thick syrup. But easy to flow out of the bottle. It lathers quite well. But I find that with shower gels is that it is better to use with a loofah. A bit of goes a long way. It will foam up, makes lathering so much more fun and easier. I guess you can alway...
