Mini Reviews

Today's mini reviews are for 2 Maybelline products: 24HR Super Stay Foundation and Lash Discovery Mascara.

This foundation claims to last the entire day, up to 24 hrs wear if needed.  It is formulated to withstand heat, sweat, and humidity and is not supposed to rub off.
I have to say that it does live up to its claim of lasting a long time.  It does not wear out throughout the day; although the longest I've worn this foundation would probably be about 10 hours.  I don't think I've ever worn any makeup for 24 hrs on my face, so I don't know about that part, but it is long-lasting.  The color is also good with my skin tone and has no problem blending. 
My only problem with this foundation is that it's not mattifying.  Yes it stays on long, but my face gets really oily and I'm constantly having to blot my face throughout the day.  My ideal foundation is a mattifying one, and this just isn't it. 

I have never used a mascara brush this tiny before, so this was definitely something I had to get used to when using this mascara.  It's perfect for defining each lash, especially on the lower lashline.  This would be great if you like a more natural everyday look for your lashes, without a lot of volume or drama. 
I've compared the Lash Discovery brush to the L'Oreal Million Lashes Mascara so you can see the difference in their size. 

I prefer a little more volume for my lashes, but for just a day look, this mascara is fine.  I love using it on my bottom lashes; it's much easier to use and the waterproof formula takes care of any smudging problems.
