Anastasia’s Lash Genius

2 Comments

Summer is coming up and nobody wants to have what I end up having towards the end of the day: residue under my eyes which ends up looking like I have tremendous looking dark circles after being out in the hot summer sun. Dark circles will never be attractive.

Anastasia lash genius.

I don’t use a water proof mascara on a daily basis even though I probably should with the amount of laughing I do in the run of a day. My mascara always comes off because I’m a cry-laugher. Yep, one of those.

Anastasia has come up with the perfect blended formula which isn’t a waterproof mascara in itself. It waterproofs your OWN mascara by applying this on top. Anastasia will be launching Lash Genius — it’s a clear topcoat for your eyelashes, which basically waterproofs the mascara you already own! Dual purpose. Keep your favorite mascara but also waterproof it when needed. Lash Genuis for sure.

Lash Genius keeps your lashes in place without the clumping, or even hardening of your lashes. I’m always afraid my lashes will break off when they harden like that with certain mascaras! Lash Genius is pretty weightless on those blinkers of yours. Is that a term people use for eyelashes? I kinda just made that up. I like it. Blinkers. Turn on those blinkers girls!

Anastasia lash genius with the top of the tube. Love their logo.

Lash Genius doesn’t make your lashes brittle, in fact it coats them and you’re left with soft lashes after putting this stuff on. Meaning they won’t break off or no losing precious lashes after you remove your mascara.

I’m not a false eyelashes wearer because I’m blessed with long lashes that hit my eyebrows , but you can use Lash Genius on your false eyelashes to hold them in place with your regular eyelashes.

It will retail for $21 once it hits Sephora stores in late May.Check out the promo video for it!

Anastasia’s Lash Genius was sent to me for reviewing purposes. All opinions are my own.

Rubbermaid LunchBlox

36 Comments

One for you, one for me. One for you, one for me.

Whether you want to bring these Rubbermaid LunchBloxes with you to work, or save them for picnic’s with your family, you can’t help but notice the bright fun look of the Rubbermaid’s new containers. They are perfectly portioned to keep everything in its place. They stack vertically so they’re quite space efficient, and also feature a snap-in Blue Iceâ„¢ so it keeps your food chilly. No more soggy sandwiches or wilted lettuce for lunch! Wilted lettuce is a pain in my butt let me tell you.

It’s resorting me back to pre-school with those fun building blocks we played with. Snap the rubbermaid containers all together and you’ve got some lunch for yourself.

I can only assume that students would benefit the best from the Rubbermaid LunchBlox containers, as most people who have jobs or careers most likely have a fridge in their office. Where as students need to keep their food in their lockers or carry them around all day.

Some feed of food I got! Inside the hugh-jazz salad was chicken, red and orange bell peppers, fresh mushrooms, cucumber, and matchstick carrots. On the side I had snow peas.

Little container for your salad dressing, and toppings.

These containers are so much more environmentally friendly than using little baggies like ziplocks. Also, sure I have other Rubbermaid containers that I use to bring to work with me, but they don’t have these snap on leg0-like building. It’s kinda fun to stack them and have them stay in place.These do fit in our lunch bags, since the unique design is so compact.

Another short work week, just like last. It was a Victoria Day holiday here in Canada on Monday, thus the day off work. Which is the day I flew back to Ontario.

Today my Boss and I conducted interviews at the local university. It was a super fun day asking questions to nervous students all morning long, but so exhausting. I have hilarious stories, but I don’t think it’d be appropriate to share on my blog. One person stood out for sure, and not in a good way lol.

Anyway onto my OOTWW:

What does everyone have planned for this weekend? It’s been 30ºC here all week, and this weekend is full of rain. I don’t have anything major planned. Just organizing things at home and getting ready for the next work week. I’ve also been scoping out things like http://www.halltrees.com/ for our non-existent apartment hallway. Having a nice entrance into your porch is just super nice. The one’s on that site are pretty nice too lol. Just sayin’. I think I’m ready to move into a house or something.

Stay tuned as in a few minutes I’m going to be posting a giveaway for my Canadian readers.
