Organic Wear Mascara!

I was very excited when I hear about this new mascara. I had never used an organic mascara before, and I knew that the usual price for an organic mascara was around $20, this one is around $10 (it also comes in way cuter packaging than other mascaras!). But the question was, was it going to work well?
I mean, it's hard to find a mascara that impresses me. Most of them work okay, and the make my lashes noticeable, but it's hard for me to fall in love with a mascara (too many bad breakups...). But this one has won me over, and I'm being serious- it works fabulously. It works kind of like Laura Mercier's thickening and building mascara, but separates the lashes more instead of giving the more full lashes look that Laura Mercier's does.
Also, Organic Wear mascara doesn't aggravate the eyes (probably something to do with the fact that it is organic).
Do yourself a favor and buy a tube of this, it will make you happy.

L.A. Girls Flare

I'm picky about nail polish. I don't like it if they awhile to dry, I don't like applying more than three coats (patience doesn't seem to be one of my virtues), and I like the colors to be unique. That's not to say that I don't like tried and true colors like red, I just like my red to look like it has maybe a little bit of burgundy thrown in it.

I've recently been out on the look for some fun new colors for the summer and came across one by L.A. Girls Flare in Urban Outfitters. It's number 10, which is a light purple type shade. I have to say it's fabulous. It applies smoothly, takes no more than three coats, and it dries super fast. There are a lot of other unique (and less unique) colors available by them. It cost $5 at your local Urban Outfitters.
