As I was nearing the end of my weekly grocery shopping trip, I remembered I needed to get new mascara... Lets just say the selection at Cub foods was not flourishing and the prices were quite higher than usual. In order to not spend a ridiculous amount of money on mascara and throw off our grocery budget, I resorted to buying "Falsies waterproof mascara." I thought, hey, how bad can it be? Little did I know how awful it is to take it off and deal with the stickiness that it brings to my normal [and not sticky] lashes. I then had to go buy eye makeup remover (which I have never bought before). Im tempted to get a new one even if i am only half way through the tube, but I know Sam would not approve. It now takes me much longer to get ready and deal with these dang eye lashes. ugh.
Word to the wise, unless its your wedding day, you are attending a funeral, or plan to cry a lot, steer clear from waterproof mascara and skip the hassle! Not to mention that it is not that healthy for the lashes we strive to grow and flourish.
Lesson for myself: Spend a few extra dollars or drive an extra mile to get a better deal on a good mascara that washes OFF :)
