Beauty Stat - For the beauty obsessed who demand the facts not fiction.

As far as makeup goes, we think Wet n Wild offers some of the best values you can find. We recently got a sample of their Mega Length Mascara and we were very excited to try it.

The company states that in testing, 85% of consumers saw length improvement. For lavishly long and perfectly defined lashes, this lengthening formula visibly lifts for clump-free, lash-by-lash definition. Ophthalmologist-tested.
Well, that sounds great but we had to see for ourselves.  We gave it to our expert product evaluator, Antonella, and this is what she said.
“I remember …

As you know, we are big fans of Arbonne. We love that the brand is vegan-certified and their products are never derived from animals nor are they tested on animals.  And if that weren’t enough, they use renewable sources in their paper packaging.  They are well known for their skincare products but lately they have been launching more makeup items like their Lipsticks and Lip Polishes that we’ve reviewed and approved.

Arbonne introduces the newly-reformulated Triple Action Mascara that now contains peptides, goji berry, algae extract along with other botanicals that …

We’re big fans of Mally Beauty products as we reported on her Poreless Face Defender and Volumizing Mascara.

So when we got our hands on Mally’s Ginormous mascara, we had to put it the test to see whether it could turn our tiny sparse lashes into gargantuans.  Here is what our expert product evaluator, Antonella, had to say.
This mascara definitely thickened and lengthened my lashes. I’m only wearing the mascara on my left eye, so you can see the difference.  Click on the images below to enlarge.

Here’s another shot with my …

We had reported a little while back on the latest mascara from CoverGirl: the LashBlast Fusion Mascara, but we did not have an actual sample on hand to test. But guess what? We snagged one.

I have to admit, that for a big purple wand that promised happiness like Barney with a round belly, this LashBlast Fusion Mascara absolutely delivered on every single promise: it lifted the lashes, it coated the lashes evenly and superbly – with ZERO deposits at all – and it made my lashes look really long and …

I’ve been a big big fan of COVERGIRL’S LashBlast mascara, so I was quite twitterpated when CoverGirl announced that its latest mascara — LashBlast Fusion — was introduced today!There you have it, fresh and hot off the press and too hot for skinny lashes to even have an excuse to exist.

Last night, I attended an unveiling of two new products from one of my favorite cleansing brands: Biore. The new Steam Activated Cleanser aims to harness the pore-opening properties of steam in your shower, and the makeup removing towelettes is a great addition to your pocketbook and your eternal quest and zeal for picture purrfect skin.

Honestly, I was thrilled to hear about the steam activated cleanser. I always clean my face in the shower (and according to Biore, about 60% of Americans …
