Sunday Social


I stumbled across this link up and I thought I'd join in! What I like about this is the themed questions that go along with it rather than just blog hops. 

1. What is the first website you log on to each day?
    Gmail
2. Give us some funny websites you visit that we need to know about
    iwastesomuchtime.com
3. Pinterest or Facebook? Why?
    Pinterest because I get so many decor and DIY ideas from it.
4. Twitter or Instagram? 
    Instagram! I love photography!
5. Favorite youtube video...post it! 
    These are my current top 3. I love Nigahiga and Jenna Marbles! Soooo funny!
Nice Guys-Nigahiga


Best Joke Ever-Nigahiga


How Girls Pack a Suitcase-JennaMarbles 

     6. Biggest online pet peeve?
   When people/haters (especially in YouTube comments) say really mean things about beauty gurus or others defending the guru. We all have different opinions- just respect that! Those gurus worked hard to make their videos. If you don't like the video you're watching then stop watching it and find something else. I think it's okay to be honest and make suggestions but in a nice way, no trash talking and insulting!

Review: Maybelline Volum' Express Mega Plush by Kayla



Hi guys! Kayla from All Things Beauty has a great review to share with you! Thank you for guest posting! Take it away...     

Hey everyone!  Well as you can see, today I'm doing a review on the Maybelline Volum' Express Mega Plush mascara. A little disclaimer: I am not being paid to do this by any means, I just really like this product and thought it might be helpful to those who aren't sure whether they should buy it or not. 

     I think this is one of the best drugstore mascaras ever! I know Maybelline has always had good mascaras for a lot of people, then others don't really like them. I've kind of had mixed feelings about their mascaras in general. I always like to try their newest one, but the whole Falsies Collection didn't impress me at all. I thought they clumped really bad which made me want to pick at it all day, and it flaked throughout the day which does NOT look good. I was kind of excited to try this product out for some reason though. So I went down to walmart and picked it up, pretty recently after it came out. 

     I never used to curl my lashes before I put on mascara but I think it makes a huge difference with this mascara so I highly recommend it! This mascara is definitely my favorite so far. It adds so much volume to your lashes and it adds a lot of length as well! It lasts all day without having to reapply (even the non-waterproof which is what I have). It doesn't flake at all and feels very smooth on your lashes. It can give your eyes a dramatic look, if that's what you want then apply up to 3 coats. 1 coat gives a nice amount of length and volume and looks pretty and natural. 2 coats is what I usually wear and I think it's perfect! Doesn't make your eyes look too dramatic but gives them a perfect amount of length and volume.

     When I first opened up the mascara to try it out, I was a little worried that it would clump because it just looked like that kind of brush but it has a such a smooth application and it's very flexible. It works to cover all of your lashes, even the littlest ones in the outer corner. I really can't say a bad thing about this mascara I love it! Would so recommend this product for anyone wanting to try out a new mascara, or just starting out with makeup, this is a great product!

     Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this post and it was helpful to you! Have a great day! :)
