November 9, 2009Mascara Clump.so many people who have been around me, being friends,family or complete strangers ask me what mascara i use. now i look at them dead in the eye and say "ive never used mascara, pinky swear" at time people believe me then others they have to feel my eyelashes...i win. Now why am i telling you this? well, the next question always goes "wow i want eyelashes like that...but i don't even know how to apply mascara" and thankfully with experience from my mother i know great mascaras that truly work and the best way to learn!
First stop, LETS FIND A GREAT MASCARA! Now you dont have to spend loads of money on makeup in general to look great, i have a Dior eyeliner that was 45 dollars! it sucks bad. Thats money wasted on a label not a product. So here's some mascaras that are amazing and cheap! Five Favorite Mascara's
Number one: Maybelline New York Great Lash Mascara Not only is this amazing but it's only $6.50 and can be fine at any drug store. My mom loves waterproof mascara's because when she cries over a cheesy soap oprea, it wont smudge!
Number two: Maybelline XXL Volume + Length My little sister is OBESSED! with this one, she always buys doubles so she wont get a panic attack when it finishes. This can be also found at your drug store which is always a plus. The con thing about it tho, the wand [this is the end of the stick where you would apply] is short and it doesnt really give the WOW factor, i would suggest this for people who have medium lashes, not thin or short.
Number three: Lancome Fatale Okay so this may be a little pricey but i can say, it's totally worth it. It sells for $21.00, but if you want super INTENSE length then this is for you, my mom said that she can almost feel it brushing her eyebrows, haha and i can totally see why, she looked like a doll.
Number four: Cover Girl Lash Exact Mascara So im sure that anyone that you know has one, or you have seen over 100,000 commericals and MISS Tyra Banks herself talking about it. People love the way it separates their lashes. There has to be a reason why everyone keeps getting it...cause it's sooo good! This one is great for a night out or a date, even better a quick wake up call when test are around and we look like...shall i say...crap?...ya Oh and its realllly cheap too!
Number five: MAC Pro Lash Mascara its rather reasonable priced compared to drugstore mascaras, it's only $13.00. This mascara was first used on runways and only makeup artist were allowed to buy them, until they used it to the genaral public awhile ago. MAC Prolash mascara is not too heavy or to light. For a more of a natural look, apply one coat. Now for a dramtic/sexy look apply more coats . Makeup Application Tips : How to Apply MascaraSo i found this great video on how to apply mascara for people who are scared that they might poke a eyeball or something, haha dont worry this video will help you.
Well i hope this helped you, if you have any questions, be sure to ask! what is your favorite mascara? ox Jillian

November 3, 2009Not the wolf.tuesday, November 3rd 2009
a happy birthday! to my sister melanie and my friend sky! woohoo! today was a very long day at the Allure Offices and had so much work... which was due to the fact that i went to sleep at 4am-ish and woke up at 8am i only had a 4hour sleep Note to self: sleep! women sleeeep! So last night im waiting for the bus like always, at around the same time. The air was super nice and i just spent a good amount of money on clothes and a garment rack at bed bath and beyond, which by the way was only 20 dollars! yes, i was super excited! i always wanted one but never really got myself to buy it...So yes... where was i? ...Ahh yes, so the night was beautiful and the air was super clear, and by clear, i mean NYC clear...my city homies will understand. I got on the bus, and there was little to no-one, Then the bus made a stop at 74th street like always to pick up so as the bus turns slighty to leave a man, middle 30's or so, blue eyes, short dark brown hair, and a long dark navy blue coat taps on the window...sadly the driver doesnt see him and pulls away. Now outside me is "Oh no! well that sucks..." Inside me is "HAHAHA loser! maybe if he flys down 3 blocks he can catch it! DOUBT IT!" i know super mean haha so what happenes, 2seconds later we are at 77th street and BAM he's there! i was in total shock because it was like magic that he made it 3blocks, the bus was totally fast... i still can't believe it happened.
As he sits across from me, my face is totally in =o mode, but of course i made no emotion to the naked eye. The funny thing is that he started to talk to me and like many guys in NYC who randomly talk to you, it's a red sign for creeep! but for some reason no sign went on and we talked the whole way....
today's veeee-diii-ooOhh of the day: why? because i love them! this video is pureee love... Heartrevolution - Digital suicide
love ya <3
