I’m going to have to be honest with you all, I am a complete novice when it comes to make-up. For one thing, I just started wearing it senior year of high school, if you can count poorly applied lipstick as wearing make-up. But it wasn’t really up until college that I started to actually use make-up and get some idea of its subtleties. Unfortunately, that made me pretty behind most of the girls I saw, who had already gone through their cringy, raccoon-eyed, frosty lipped phases and were now much more accomplished in getting the “right look”.
So I put myself on a crash course of make-up and beauty videos and hacks. That, of course, led me to buy a variety of sponsored products with whatever little money I could scrape up. And pretty much every time, I was disappointed with my less-than-stellar results. So I had to let those beauty vloggers go. Instead, I had to start understanding and accepting my face, features, and skin tone, and I had to start developing my own ideas of how my make-up should look. I also had to start developing my own collection of make-up that fit my desired aesthetic as well as my current skill level.
This is where Buxom’s Big Tease Plumping Mascara comes in! Mascara has definitely been one of those trickier items that I find myself avoiding in my mad morning scramble to get out the door in a semi-presentable state. The mascara I had before this one was an absolute mess that smeared everywhere it touched and left fallout scattered all over my cheeks. And once the stuff was on, it would not come off until I had essentially rubbed my eyes raw with make-up wipes.
Thankfully, the Big Tease mascara has been the answer to my mascara blues! The application is simple and neat, no constant wiping and fudging with wipes. And once the application is complete, the effects are obvious: visibly darker and fuller lashes that are just long enough to look great without brushing distractingly against glasses or cheeks. And the best part? Comes off with minimal muss and fuss!
I can’t promise you that this one make-up item will change your life, raise your grades, and clear your acne, but I can say that I will be reaching for this mascara again and again. It’s the perfect mascara for daily use to give you that classic enhanced natural look. That said, hopefully, I will be able to provide you all with more content and reviews as I discover which products are the real deal, and which ones are not worth the hype. Stay tuned!
