Small Tip #2: Bra Wash Bag

Have you ever tried doing the laundry and end up missing one (or more, occasionally) sock? I honestly can't count the number of times I have lost a sock and ended up with an incomplete pair, thus after repeating this for some times having had to go out and buy new socks. New socks are lovely, they are; however, I find there are nicer things to spend money on than socks that aren't even worn out but simply missing. Socks aren't fun purchases. 

Review: Diorshow Maximizer Lash Primer

First, I apologize for the lack of focus in the pictures. The camera didn’t know how to focus or to capture the silver writing on the primer, so it focused on everything else. 

The only primer I have tried beyond this sample is one for eyeshadow (from a different brand) and I really liked it, even to the point I still use it for when I need for my eyeshadow to last longer and stay put. With the lash primer, I was actually in doubt for a long time if I liked it or not…

It is a personal matter of how you prefer your lashes look with mascara; some like them to look natural, others for them to look full and dramatic, and again other people for them to look almost spiky. I belong to the first category and with the combination of having short lashes I feared they would look spiky or unnatural.

Despite my hate for rubber applicators and fear of my lashes looking spiky, I have to admit that I like the primer. The rubber ward isn’t difficult to handle as it doesn’t matter if isn’t done perfectly; slapping it on works just fine. It doesn’t look unnatural, but simply that my lashes have become slightly longer without looking fake and spiky. I don’t find it to last a whole day looking the same from morning to something-in-the-PMs, however. Thus, I only use it for when going out partying and need for it to only last some hours before people are too drunk to notice.

Though I like it, I don’t think I would purchase it due to the lasting hours. It doesn’t make the biggest difference and overall it is just good, not amazing as I would want from a Dior primer.

Do you use a lash primer? And if so, which one do you use?

Until next time,
