Chanel Mascara

I am still on the search for the perfect mascara (who isn't to be honest?) and after a friends recommendation, my next choice was to go for the Chanel volumizing mascara priced at £22.50. This is probably he most expensive mascara I have ever bought, but it is Chanel so you can't be surprised.



Usually I go for more lengthening mascaras, but my lashes are actually fairly long but lacking volume. Volumizing mascara wands tend to be a lot fatter, and what I can only describe as being 'bumble bee' like. This took a little getting used too to start as I'm more familiar with thinner wands for length.


To start I couldn't use the mascara without getting thick spider lashes all grouped together, but after a bit of practice, I have managed to coat more individual lashes.



From the side, it looks like I need more length again, but from the front I think it defiantly looks like I have more volume. I must confess I have a really bad habit of pulling out my eye lashes so more volume has covered up the more sparse areas!

Chanel Coloured Mascara

Excuse these new random posts I'm doing showing off the latest ad campaigns in the makeup world. These adverts are really quite inviting and I'm using my blog as a kind of pin board, to show you what I am interested in, and my kind of inspirations that I want to try out. The latest one I have found myself staring at, is the new Chanel advert, picturing their new coloured mascaras. Coloured mascara is by no means modern or the latest thing, but I really love how the eye shadows mirror the mascara, creating a really cool summery look. Similarly to the Mac campaign, matching nail colour to eye makeup, is a big thumbs up for from me!
