COVERGIRL LashBlast Clump Crusher Mascara.

How many coats of mascara do you normally apply? If you are like me, you probably apply two to three coats. I think that is pretty normal. With every coat applied, I have to be careful of the dreaded clumps. I think we all want luscious, clump-free lashes. Well, this brand new COVERGIRL LashBlast Clump Crusher Mascara promises no clumps - up to 30 strokes.

That's not just it. Clump Crusher Mascara also amps up the volume by up to 200%. That's right. This mascara delivers the LashBlast drama you love, with up to 200% more volume and ZERO clumps, even after 30 strokes of the great green wand.

How does it hold up?

After 30 strokes of the mascara wand, which is about three coats of mascara, my lashes were noticeably thicker and darker, with no clumps in sight. I'd say this mascara lives up to its' name.

The formula, which almost seems dry, comes very cleanly out of the tube, so all you get is mascara on each lash. The lash-hugging curved brush design, with a straight bristle edge, basically custom fits the brush to the curve of the eye. It is super easy to get right to the base of the roots and concentrate the color right where I want it. Lashes look great all day, with no flaking or smudging, and comes right off easily with my normal eye makeup remover.

Clump Crusher comes in four shades:

• Very Black
• Black
• Black Brown
• Brown

I used the shade Black in the photos above.

Look for COVERGIRL LashBlast Clump Crusher Mascara at drugstores such as CVS and mass retailers like Target and Walmart, nationwide now. One tube costs about $6.99.

L’Oréal Paris & Project Runway Collection: Electric Fantasie.

L’Oréal Paris has once again teamed up for a Project Runway collection. This year, celebrating Season 10, the collection is called Electric Fantasie: The Fairy Tale Recharged. The collection includes eye, lip, face and nail products in four color schemes: Enchanted Queen, The Seductive Temptress, The Wise Mystic and The Artsy Muse.

Enchanted Queen is for a dark and dramatic look; The Seductive Temptress colors create an unexpected, almost venomous look; The Wise Mystic is for a futuristic look; and The Artsy Muse is for a playful and light-hearted look.

I am loving the Nail Lingerie, which are Nail Stickers, or as I like to call them nail polish strips. The designs are gorgeous.
