Wink!

Every BG has a favorite feature that they like to play up with makeup. Mine are my eyes, hands-down. I agree with the saying that the eyes are the windows into your soul. That’s why I make sure that my eyes reflect my soul, which I feel is beautiful. I beautify my eyes on a daily basis by lining them with the blackest of black eyeliner, followed by 2 coats of black mascara. I have tried tons of eyeliners and mascaras. I’ve used everything from designer products to the ones that you can find at your local drugstore. Throughout all of the different brands that I’ve applied, I stick to my tried and true favorites – Revlon Colorstay eyeliner in black and everybody’s favorite mascara – Maybelline Great Lash in blackest black. These two inexpensive products have never let me down. The properly applied combination of the two make my eyes pop without looking like Tammy Faye Bakker. I have oily skin so before I tried Revlon’s Colorstay eyeliner, my lids would look like I had used soot for eye shadow. Now my liner never smears, which is a hard feat for an oily girl like me. Not only does the mascara create to-die-for lashes, it also comes in a pretty pink and green tube. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked if my eyelashes were false because of the unbelievable length that this mascara creates. If you want your eyes to look picture-perfect and camera-ready at all times, definitely give these two a try!

Okay, once again you are suggesting I try something new. You don't know how hard that is for a BG like me. However, because these products are 'affordable' and available at my neighborhood Walgreens, I MIGHT give it a try. I must say, I'm fairly happy with my Zoom mascara from MAC along with my Engraved eye pencil, but by the time I'm done purchasing all my stuff, I'm broke!

Okay, I did it. I tried your suggestions and while I think I still favor my Zoom by MAC, I do love the eyeliner. I'm super oily so I expected it to run and smear. To my surprise, it did not! I'm loving it!

I love maximising my eyes as well. I also have a great selection of MAC eyeshadows. The mascaras that I use are Maybelline, Revlon and MAC. Jet black mascara is the best.
