The most innovative mascara I’ve tried all year is Clinique Bottom Lash. My video review explains further….in colorful detail with hand gestures and plenty of animated Felicia-isms:

I can’t decide. Is Hourglass Flim Noir Lash Lacquer revolutionary or evolutionary?

 

Revolutionary: because it represents a development within the lash category that does not currently exist.

Evolutionary: because it’s radically new and showcases a dramatic change outside of what’s presently offered.

The groundbreaking lash product is unlike anything I have ever seen in the beauty space. The inky, glossy, pitch-black top coat for lashes exaggerates the lash line to mimic the look of faux lashes without the hassle of weighty lashes or irritating adhesive.

A product launch this (R)Evolutionary deserves your full attention. Today, July 15, Hourglass Film Noir Lash Lacquer ($28) launches exclusively at Sephora and Sephora.com. With that said, I’ll stand aside — *stampede*

DermaLash Color combines the beauty of liquid eyeliner with the technology of lash enhancement.  This drug-free, nourishing eyelash treatment is applied like a liquid liner and stimulates hair follicles, which can result in a longer, fuller lash line. The secret behind the effectiveness of DermaLash Color is the naturally derived peptide complex that increases vascular density around the hair follicle while increasing the oxygen within the hair bulb. According to DermaLash, this triggers growth!

DermaLash Color comes in four flattering colors:

  • classic Black, a beautiful deep Indigo, a sensual Plum, and a rich Cocoa

If you’re in search of a lash enhancement product to transform your puny wimpy lashes into VA-VA-VOOM, ThisThatBeauty says, TRY THIS!

DermaLash Color is available nationwide at skincarerx.com.

The retail price is $95

Maybelline’s newest mascara, LASH Stiletto, promises to do for lashes what Stilettos do for legs. So if I am following the analogy correctly, LASH Stiletto is basically making the bold claim that lashes will appear a mile long!
Hmmm…Is that so?
Seeing as I’m not one to back down from a mascara claim, naturally, I had to investigate…
When approaching a new mascara the first attribute to grab my attention is brush size. Yes ladies, size matters! My personal mascara brush preference is long and lean. Super fat brushes beware…this is why my love affair with Dior Show BLACKOUT was short lived. While the formula was amazing, the brush was too fat. I used to do the ol’ switch-a-roo and use disposable mascara wands with Dior Show. But back to LASH Stiletto. The brush size is ideal for maximum product distribution. With a thinner brush, I find it much easier to work the product from root to tip and then rotate the brush to coat and curl the lashes. The thinner brush also makes it easier to coat lashes outside as well as inside…I’m totally a mascara on the outside and inside kinda girl…Call me Tammy Faye Baker if you want but that’s just the way the kid rolls :)
In addition to brush size, formula and color intensity are two important factors for moi. Maybelline LASH Stiletto delivers in both categories. With respect to formula, the product is long wearing and does not run. And with respect to color, Shade 951, Very Black, is well, how do I describe this…uh, VERY BLACK. LOL
Maybelline LASH Stiletto retails for about $8.00. Recessionista alert!!!
All in all, LASH Stiletto is a winner for ThisThatBeauty. See below, I’m showing off Maybelline LASH Stiletto. In addition I am wearing:

GIVE-A-WAY ALERT!!!
TWO lucky ThisThatBeauty readers (US and Canada residents only) will win a tube of Lash Stiletto mascara. Leave a comment with your email address. I will chose two winners at random and notify you via email. You have until March 6 to leave a comment. Good luck beautiful!
Here’s how the good folks at Maybelline describe NEW Lash Stiletto:

  • The only mascara that does for lashes what stilettos do for legs.
  • The Grip & Extend brush grasps each lash and coats from every angle
  • Elastic formula stretches lashes for provocative length
  • Pro-Vitamin B-5 formula conditions and smoothes for black-patent shine
  • Contact lens safe and Ophthalmologist tested

Do you dare go faux? Normally I don’t.

But sometimes….once in a while…on the rare occasion…

I whip out a flirty pair of lashes and my duo lash glue (dark)…and voila! Instant vamp. My current faux lash crush is MAC Lash #33.

They’re fun, girlie, and flirty without being too over the top. These lashes do the job with out putting you in the running to win RuPaul’s Drag Race. LOL :)

See for yourself:



Other than MAC, I am also a fan of the Ardell brand. Very recession friendly lashes!


Faux lash ladies, stand up! What’s your favorite fax lash brand/ type?

Need lashes???
Is Dior Show just not doing it for you? 
Feeling the urge to go faux?
Well look no further than Ja’Maal Buster.  He’s Rihanna’s go-to lash guy.  I recently had the opportunity to meet Ja’Maal and experience his lash magic.
Things started out on a rather cautious note as I informed Ja’Maal, “I’m not really into lashes…I just wear great mascara”.  Ja’Maal decided to go with beautiful wispy individual lashes.  One by one he gently applied each lash. By the time he completed one eye, I was sold – hook, line, and sinker. Y’all should have seen me all in love with myself.  After Ja’Maal completed both eyes, I was ready for a night out.  But alas, my only plan was to catch the next train home to Jersey. Anyhoo, the very next time I have a fun evening in the works, I’m definitely checking out Ja’Maal Buster for amazing lashes.  
Ja’Maal floats back and forth between the east and west coast.  If you’d like to pay him a visit, 
and I highly recommend you do so, he may be reached at:
