.CoverGirl LashBlast, Maybelline MasterDrama, Versace Yellow Diamond, Simple Facial Wipes.

Okay, this is not necessarily a "freebies" post because you have to buy these products, but if you're skeptical towards the ones that I am going to review, I hope my post will help you decide or change your mind about buying these.
     I don't know if you can see the picture clearly, but here are the products I wanted to review, mainly make up, because I find them to be phenomenal!

  1. Covergirl LashBlast Volume Waterproof mascara
  2. Maybelline MasterDrama by Eye Studio
  3. Versace Yellow Diamond perfume
  4. Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes
     Okay, so the first product is mascara. You might know it if you watch a whole bunch of TV and watch the commercials all promoted by Sofia Vergara or Ellen DeGeneres. It's Covergirl's Last Blast Volume (waterproof) mascara. I love it. Like I've said before, this is just another product that gets a lot of mixed reviews. Luckily for the company though, I LOVE this stuff. I honestly don't mind the big brush and while applying it, I do not find that the product leaves too much on my lashes even on the first coating. I love the consistency of the mascara because other drugstore brands that my mom and I have bought are too watery and thin and bring down the lashes after we curled them. They would also clump our eyelashes together; not good and so we stopped buying.
     Over the years, and ever since I started doing my make up as an earlier teen, both my mom and I have usually used Apple Mascara. This mascara is a Mexican mascara you can usually get for about $3 at almost any market. We love it because the brush is the right size, does not clump, darkens and coats the lashes really well, and it does not run and leave your eyes looking raccoon- like.
.I usually use the 4th pink one. My mom, the green 2nd to last because it does not make her lashes fall out.
     One day we were at CVS yet again and I had heard a whole lot of rave about LashBlast and it didn't have a long time it had come out, so I wanted to get it. And so we did. I got home, opened the package, cleaned my eyes, curled and applied for the first time. I... was... happy! Happy! Why? Because we had finally tried a drugstore mascara that did not bring down the lashes, lasted all day, did not clump and coated extremely well. To be honest, we had actually already tried a previous mascara by CoverGirl as well named VolumeExact and was waterproof as well. At first it was liquid like, but after opening it did harden up a bit was not to the point where we couldn't use. It was great because it also plumped the lashes and the brush was the perfect size, but then we couldn't buy it anymore, resorting back to Apple.
     The second product is eyeliner. I have been asking around, wondering what eyeliners my friends recommended and I got a few. When I went to CVS though, I did not remember which they had told me, and I was looking around, trying to remember which they had told us about. I knew one of them had told me about Maybelline so I went there and read the description for some eyeliners. I ended up choosing MasterDrama because it tempted me and I wanted to accept a challenge of all day wear, lasting 16 hours, and it being good for sensitive eyes, which my mom has.
     I tried it on yet again, once I got back home after the purchase. I loved the smoothness and easiness of the way it glided over the lid, without having to reapply to ensure the darkness of the eyeliner. Once applied, it was set and done and so... it really did last. It even lasted throughout my sleep. Yup. (Sometimes I forget to get rid of my make up, which is bad in the long run and which you should avoid!) But I kept waking up for it to still be on my lid! It did not smudge either which was great and did last the whole night and day.
     Combined together, this is what my eyes look like:
.Sorry about the image quality.
     The eyeliner is really dark and so far, has not smudged at all and it won't for another good while. The mascara placed well enough on my eyelashes, making them exceed the point where the eyeliner is and, I don't know if you can, but you can see my lashes almost hit the upper lid, not where the eyeliner is, but below the eyebrows are. Every time I look up, my lashes hit that spot and I can feel them, and they are not clumped together or separate. They are even.
.My lashes to the point where they are touching my lid.
     Now, these two items are in my beauty bag, and so are the last two. The perfume adds the best scent. It is light, easy on the nose and smells of flowers, but like I said, is not too strong. It smells a bit lemony as well, making it one of the best perfumes I've used. I keep it in my bag for an instant spray on the go, like when I can't smell the perfume I was previously wearing any longer. I highly recommend for you to acquire this perfume, specially if you want something light for the summer. It's the perfect fragrance that I am sure you will love.
     Obviously we need to remove our make up, and for that, also in my beauty bag, is the Simple cleansing facial wipes. They are smooth on your face and do not irritate the skin. They are also not oily and get every single little piece of make up off. It leaves your face feeling fresh. I will definitely keep buying these because I love the way they make my skin feel.

So, there you go. Maybe I took too long talking about just 2 products, but as long as I mentioned all of them, I thought I would let you guys know about them because they are worth the purchase, review and use. Hope you guys enjoyed this post, even though there were no new sample reviews.
     And speaking about samples, I haven't received any new ones, so yet again, I am obligated to round the newest ones up to be able to right a good review.

Miracle Whip, MiO, and EveryDay with Rachel Ray...

     Hello everyone, how is the samples department going? I'm sorry if they aren't getting to your doorstep fast enough; I completely know the disappointing feeling. I wish I could get them faster to your door, but I have no control, although I really wish I did. Any who, one of the reasons why I was saying this was because I had a friend ask me how long it takes for samples to get to your address and like all of us, he wanted them to get there faster, but either way, he is still going to order some. Yay! Another member of the free samples club.
     I know you guys don't really need to know what I'm doing, but I will still share. I'm sitting down on my bed in my room while my boyfriend is playing Operation Raccoon City right next to me. Oh well, at least I have something to do while he's distracted a bit.
Now, to the real samples of the night.
     I got 2 sample packets for Miracle Whip. I believe the offer is still being given out if you click the link where it says "Miracle Whip." I think I received my free sample from there and if you notice, you could also send your friends free samples! I... honestly prefer Miracle Whip in salads, specially potato salad. I use a bit of "original" mayonnaise, a spoon of Miracle Whip, some mustard and a bit of salt and pepper. I don't know, that is just me. Speaking about potato salad, now I want some. Maybe at the park, with some sandwiches and iced tea or lemonade! Mmmmm. Now I am more hungry than I already was! Waaaaaaah! Oh well, maybe a sandwich will await me once I am done writing this blog, you know, as a reward?
     And speaking about things or more like, drinks that can go along with your sandwich and other meals and also in the lemonade- sorts of department, why don't we pair all that up with some MiO Liquid Water Enhancer? Just like, this one!

Yup! I got my sample in the mail not so long ago and as you can tell, I hope, I was really, really happy! Why? LOOK at the thing! It's an actual product sized bottle! How much more freaking amazing is that?!
That and I'm sorry, but I had to try it right away. My mom doesn't like it just because she says it's just paint! And well, even though I do agree, I have to say that I did like it, but that for me, it leaves me wanting more, or even more thirsty. Is that a good thing? I love the flavor: Blueberry Lemonade; it's sweet, and you don't have to put too much in it. (My boyfriend got the Lemonade flavor. That one is a bit more acidic, but it's sweet at the same time, but that one you do have to put enough to make it more sweet. We both liked it, but I'd much more prefer to get other flavors to try.)
     The second biggest surprise that I got was the "EveryDay with Rachel Ray" magazine. I... "grew up" watching Rachel Ray's 30- Minute Meals. (I say "grew up" because she's not old, and I was already a teen obviously, but her show was really fun and you learned shortcuts to meals that would only take, about 30 minutes.) I had gotten home late from being out of the house and when I did come home, I noticed the magazine last out the pile of free stuff, but I was sooooo excited.
     The magazine is PACKED with recipes, many of which I've always wanted to try. Specially now that we're in summer and that it's time to get the grill out which I absolutely love to use. That, and even though you have the recipes, you can change some of the ingredients for cheaper ones or just to mess around with the taste. It'd be nice and smart if this magazine, or any other food magazines came with coupons. (Just saying!) But I can't complain; I got this one for free! I actually think I got a whole year free. I just hope I don't get a surprise bill at the end and them make me subscribe to the second year! I'm broke! I never even get magazines for the same reason that they are pricey, but this one is worth it!
     So there you go; all the samples I received! Hope you guys liked this post and thanks once again for reading!

.Emergen-C, Versace Yellow Diamond, and Poise.

     Hello guys. The samples department has been a bit faster these 2 weeks, which is surprising, but really great for me because I get to tell you guys about the latest samples and give you more offers here, on my Facebook page. But if you're reading this on the quickness, then here you go.
     As you can see, the words Emergen-C are written on what to me seems like a wallet. It was actually quite a nice little package. I'm a sucker for "cute" things, I mean, I am a girl! Either way, I had heard about Emergen-C before, about how it was obviously packed with Vitamin C and  how it was supposed to fill you with a bunch of energy, somehow naturally. I haven't really tried it, but am looking forward to, specially because I've been feeling nasty. That sounds weird, but what I mean is that I don't feel as energized as I used to and am hoping I could feel like that again. And what better way than to try the samples, right?
     So, as far as samples go, I got 2! One is the orange one which is of "Super Orange" flavor. It's got "nutrients, vitamins, antioxidants and electrolytes and enhances your energy."
The blue packet is the Emergen-C Immune+ system support with Vitamin D. It's of "Blueberry Acai" flavor.
These two sure do sound good though. And they are supposed to help our body and immune system? Sign me up! By the way, they are STILL giving out free samples!!! I didn't know until I was visiting their website a couple of hours back. Click here for your free samples!
     I know you can't really tell, and I am sorry about the quality of the picture, but that to the right is the Versace Yellow Diamond perfume sample I received in the mail. THIS is how ALL perfume samples should be, not like the other perfume samples I first reviewed when beginning to write my blog. I don't know if you read my last blog about the Target beauty sample, but in that now I have all my make up and this little Versace perfume is in it as well. It smells really good. It is a little perfume spray, if you will and in my opinion, it seems like they really want people to buy their product if they're sending samples in little sprays! They sure convinced me!
     Okay, honestly, I didn't know what these were until I received the samples these are for Poise pads, but not for what you think, unless you already knew what Poise pads were. These type of pads are for women who suffer from "light bladder leakage." You know, how sometimes someone you know might tell you that when they laugh or feel like they have to go, but can't and have to hold it, there's a bit of a leakage problem coming from their bladder? Yeah, for that problem. I honestly did not know because if you click on the link above that reads "Poise," you will see how they ask, "What absorbency do you currently use?" and well, I didn't pay attention to the "LbL" tab above and just filled out the form. But it's okay. Maybe someone who needs it might need it and I'd be able to give them these, no?
Emergen-C
     There you go; the three latest samples that I received.

  • Emergen- C
  • Versace Yellow Diamond and
  • Poise pads

I hope you guys liked this entry. Remember, as far as I know, the Emergen- C and Poise samples are still being given out and you can find the forms on the links pasted in the writings above, so enjoy! As far the Versace perfume, no more samples are being given out. Sad, but there are more samples in the world, just like there are more fish in the sea, remember?
