Checking Out the New Revlon Mascara Collection

Posted on January 22, 2016January 28, 2016 by Donna

{New Revlon Mascara Collection 2016}

As the first month of 2016 comes to a close, some of us are still dedicated to our New Years resolutions, while some of us didn’t last the first week.  I will admit I am part of the latter group.   I’ve decided to take a different spin on 2016, and think of the whole me – inside and out.  Too often, we decide to diet and exercise and do not change overall routines in our day.  I’ve decided a great start would be making some easy changes to my makeup routine.  Tired of the beauty blahs, 2016 has me ready to freshen up my everyday face, and take some makeup risks (#whynot?).

After the Christmas rush, I could see myself looking more tired than usual.  One easy way to wake up a tired looking face, is opening up your eyes, and making them the focus.  The New Revlon Mascara Collection was my first place to start.  For an everyday look I tried Revlon’s Ultimate-all-in-one-mascara.  It wields a small but mighty tool – the ‘power mini-brush’.  While this mascara gives definition, it does so in an everyday look kind of way.  Your lashes are given definition without too much drama – perfect for a 5-minute face, on weekday mornings, or casual weekend outings.  Bottom lashes, the forgotten lashes in most cases (most likely because they usually result in smudged makeup), are not a problem for this mascara’s  “power mini brush”.  The brush does double duty, coating both upper and lower lashes with ease and definition.  My lashes looked thicker and longer with a few swipes of the power mini brush.  This mascara is up for the challenge, its tiny brush making application a breeze, and lasting all day without smudging, fitting right into an everyday beauty routine.

Revlon’s Dramatic Definition Mascara as well as Revlon Ultra Volume Mascara is great for women who have long lashes and wish to add a bit of drama.

On days when I was aiming for a more natural look, I choose Revlon Super Length, as it opens up the eye, without too much volume, leaving the eyes almost naked but subtly defined.

As for the Volume+Length mascara, I was disappointed with this one as it didn’t provide much volume and I had to use quite a bit to get a lengthening effect. I would personally stick to the other mascaras in this collection; but 4 our of 5 isn’t bad!

I found the new relvon mascara collection to be an easy and non-risky first step to fight the beauty blahs of January.  The collection takes all the complications out of mascara and allows you to center on your eyes as a starting point for your face, choosing the right mascara match for you.

Have you tried out the new Revlon mascara collection yet?

    These seem like really nice every day mascara options. I want to try the Dramatic Definition Mascara since I like smaller brushes. Great review 🙂

    at first sight I thought they are coloured mascara ha ha. I must say they look too cute to resist. I haven’t tried a revlon mascara for long time but surely going to look for these.

Their Soft Smudge Lip & Cheek stick is incredible. A cream-to-powder formula(!!!!), this baby is buildable, blendable, and beautiful. 

Plus, with just a drop of KJH.Brand Hyper Shine Serum, it transforms into a glossy, rich sheen of luxurious color. 

I’ve used it on my eyes, lips, and cheeks in both glossy and matte textures, and love it each time. It’s genuinely like having 5 products in one. 😍

Have you tried anything from @kjh.brand yet?

Proud ☺️🌈 And loud, since I have the privi Proud ☺️🌈

And loud, since I have the privilege of being able to live my life openly, unlike so many of my 2SLGBTQIA+ peers. I’m a straight-passing cis white woman, so my queerness doesn’t threaten most people. 

So, with that advantage in mind, let me use this small platform to say to anyone who is listening:

Never forget that Pride started as a riot. 

That Pride is more than slapping a rainbow on something, jacking up the price, and saying “love is love” for four weeks out of the year. 

That true allyship involves action and accountability, 365. 

That trans women, two-spirit individuals, and queer folks of color are the heart and soul of our community. That they continue to show up, to fight, to love, and to lead while facing very real danger. That we owe so much to their courage. 

Never forget that queer folks have always been here. 

That you can’t erase us, ban us, or legislate us out of existence. 

That queerness is a part of nature. 

That it exists even when it’s no longer trendy or politically advantageous. 

That we notice and remember who speaks up and who is silent. 

That we contain multitudes. 

That we deserve safety, compassion, legal protections, love, joy, and a future - just like every other human. 

That not all of us are “out” and don’t need to be; that we will invite you in if and when we choose to, and if and when we feel safe to do so. 

That queer folks make the world better. 

And that, despite seemingly insurmountable odds, we’re going to be ok. 

Because resilience, creativity, collaboration, and resourcefulness are fundamental parts of who we are. 

So we’re not going anywhere. Get on board.

Happy Pride!

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
