by Here’s exactly how you understand you have a issue with makeup: when you get house truly late, exhausted as well as prepared to pass out, as well as the very first thing you want to do is play with your new teal mascara. Yup, I lastly got my multi-colored mitts on a tube of Clarins question Mint water resistant mascara ($23.50). You keep in mind — I very first found it at the shopping center a couple nights back however came house empty handed since it was out of stock.
As luck would have it, my regional Nordstrom DID have it in stock, as well as I brought it house with me yesterday. As exhausted as I was after work, blogging, buying as well as dinner last night (I got house around midnight), I discovered the stamina to hold that mascara wand stable sufficient to apply two coats.

That’s when the magic happened.
BAM!
My lashes haven’t partaken of a color this bright since, well, ever. I believed I’d have to layer question Mint on top of a black mascara to get the color to pop, however that was so not the case. as well poor it’s a restricted edition! If Nordies still has it in stock when I head back to the store tomorrow, I am certainly going to pick up a spare.

This morning, after getting some sleep, I reached for question Mint once again as well as used two coats. this time around around I discovered a few things I missed last night: question Mint stops working as a lash thickener, however it does offer excellent length as well as separation, fanning the lashes up as well as outside while preserving the curl.
I believed eco-friendly lashes may look as well crazy for work, so I skipped eyeshadow as well as liner to tone it down a notch. all the time today I waited for somebody to comment on my eco-friendly lashes, however not so much as a peep! — nothing, nada, zip. I’m guessing question Mint looks a great deal bolder up close than it does from afar.
When I got house from work a few hours back I used a third coat, as well as that’s the one that took it from subtle-and-appropriate-for-work to you’re-totally-fired-you-crazy-green-lashed-lady. stepping back a number of feet from the mirror, there was no missing the teal. I gotta admit, I liked the bolder color, however I’ll reserve the third coat for nights out dancing.
The fine people at Clarins should have had clubbing in mind when they concocted this stuff since it’s likewise waterproof. It ought to hold up well when I get my sweat on at the club. This afternoon, in a totally non-scientifc test of question Mint’s waterproof-ness, I spritzed MAC Charged Water around my deal with as well as then danced around my living space to Missy Elliot’s Supa Dupa Fly CD (soooo good!). After the song, I inspected myself in the mirror. There was a small bit of smudging under my eyes however no eco-friendly streaks running down my face. Hallelujar!
Wonder Mint is part of Clarins’ restricted edition summertime Fever collection, which is surprisingly full of truly quite makeup. Mistakenly, I always believed of Clarins as a strictly skin care brand, however now I’m looking ahead to inspecting out much more of their summertime line. I’m many thrilled about the brilliantly colored water resistant Eye Pencils (in Violet, Turquoise, Bronze as well as Black) as well as the sun Lip Balm.
