L’Oreal Paradise Extatic Mascara, This mascara have a intense volume and spectacular length. I’m impressed with the lightweight feel of the product. I can say to you this is the best mascara I ever use.

Revlon Colorsatay creme Eye shadow, for a speed and easy application, cream eye shadow are the best. These eye shadow is easy to blend and super long- wearing. One layer of the product gives a very natural look, the next layer is a spectacular glamour makeup. this shadow became my favourite cream eye shadow from the drugstore.
