Covergirl LashBlast Fusion Mascara



Covergirl has a number of LashBlast mascaras to enhance your lashes.  Thanks to BzzAgent I was provided with a free sample of the LashBlast Fusion mascara to test.



The mascara comes in your standard tube and the brush is of average length.  The bristles of the brush are soft and rubber like.

I was really impressed with this mascara.  It claims to add up to 10x the volume and length to your lashes and while I wouldn't say I got that much of an increase, it certainly did make a noticeable difference to my lashes.

The mascara was easy to apply, didn't clump and did a great job of separating and coating each lash.  I have tried mascaras that are about five times the price of this mascara and the Covergirl LashBlast Fusion mascara performed just as well!

This mascara washes off easily with soap and water or a makeup removing wipe.  The Covergirl LashBlast Fusion mascara is definitely one of my new go to mascaras.  I would recommend you give it a try today! 

Have you tried any of Covergirl's LashBlast mascaras?  How did you like it? 


Disclosure: I received a free Covergirl LashBlast Fusion mascara from BzzAgent to facilitate this review.

Cake Mix Sandwich Cookies

I love making these cake mix cookies!  You can use any kind of cake mix you like but I'm partial to chocolate.  I usually put icing between the cookies but this time decided to try chocolate cream cheese and they tasted great.



Ingredients:
1 boxed cake mix (I used a 515g  box of chocolate fudge)
2 eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil

Chocolate cream cheese (or filling of your choice)

Directions:
1.  In a mixing bowl, beat cake mix, eggs and vegetable oil together.  Batter will be very stiff.

2.  Roll into 1" balls and place on an ungreased baking sheet.  Flatten tops slightly.

3.  Bake at 350F for 8-10 minutes.

4.  When cookies are cool, spread with chocolate cream cheese and stick cookies together to make a sandwich.

Yield: 19 sandwich cookies
