The 10 Best Mascaras According to Elle Magazine

If you had to have only one makeup for the rest of your life.  Or say you had to leave everything you own except take just one makeup item with you, what would it be? Lipstick? Lip gloss?  Facial Powder?  According to Megan Cahn, the writer of the article I read on Elle.com who believes that most women makeup of choice would be the mascara.  So she has, with the help of beauty editors and staff from Elle Magazine, put together the 10 best mascaras there is out there for us women. How nice of her curvy divas!

Of the ten selections she has made. I have chosen my three (3) favorite.  I haven't used any of these before and will definitely put the ones I like on my want list for this year!

The mascara that looks so fake (but your lashes are real)!

"The 'They're Rea' mascara is so good, it looks like you're wearing fake eyelashes"! This according to Leah Chernikoff.  Hmmm, no you see why this is one of my three favorites?! Who wouldn't want their lashes to look full and gorgeous?!

Maybelline's Colossal Volume Mascara
Senior News Editor Sarah Holmes said she loves Maybelline's Colossal Volume mascara because it gives her thick, clump free lashes.  I like my eyelashes to be volumnous and I dislike clumps. They always makes me feel as if I'm going blind! Have that ever happened to you?  Mental note that this will be the next mascara I purchase.



Diorshow Iconic Overcurl Mascara
The look of this mascara is aesthetically pleasing to me.  I like that it has a curved wand which means my lashes will be coated with lots of love!lol! No seriously, Fashion Editor Danielle Prescod has used the Diorshow brand and loves it because she can put a lot of it on and not have goob of it on her lashes.  I definitely want to try it.

I love this list and will definitely keep it as a reference guide. Do let me know if you found this helpful, or not.  Follow the link  to find out which were the other seven on the list of the 10 best mascaras.

Wearing Red

It's Valentine's Day again and I'm sure many of you curvy divas are wondering what to wear tonight?  Some of us have plans, but others will keep it low keyed at home...or not! Whatever you do curvy divas, I found some great suggestions on Elle.com!  They featured RED , in everything, accessories, clothing, make up, even underwear!  Here are my favorite picks! I LOVE this dress! The silhouette is beautiful and will flatter most body types!  I checked and this item doesn't go larger than a size 12 by the designer, and they are out of this style at Neiman Marcus, however, it's a great look and you can find something similar elsewhere!  If it is too long, find a shorter length.

How to Wear Glitter in the Daytime

Have you ever worn sequin aka glitter?  It is pretty much a trend in fashion these days.  Glitter is worn mostly at nights and for real special and dressier occasions. But not so today curvy divas. Glitter can also be worn during the day!  I've worn glitter during the day time before and I try to make it look as understated as possible!  You don't need too much accessories when you wear glitter.  It is pretty much how you put your outfit together! On Elle.com Amanda Fitzsimons interviewed designer Marissa Webb who is known for using sequins during the daytime!  Amanda wanted to know if this look (daytime glitter) can really work? Marissa said it definitely can and thinks it is in how shine the sequinned (or glittered) garment that choose to wear is. It is not just in the size of the beadings at all! I tend to agree with her.   I don't think a really shiny sequinned garment on its own, would work for daytime. That would definitely be overkill! ...
