Maybelline The Rocket Volume Mascara Review

I'm not sure why it came out blurry... :(

As promised, here is my review on The Rocket! This mascara is a wetter mascara. Which can lead to clumping if you're not careful. I have had luck with using just 1 coat, and using a spooly brush to separate my lashes. (2 coats is always better!) I would say that if you use more than 2 coats, it would be clump city. I would recommend letting the lashes dry between the first and second coats. I will say this, it made my lashes a little "crunchy," not soft and touchable. It's not a big deal for me, but might be for others.

I did not buy the waterproof version, but this stuff is a bugger to get off! You must use an oil based eye makeup remover break the product down and remove it from your eyes. I actually like that it stays put because I don't have to worry about it smudging. This mascara is great on days when you know you are going to be gone a long time, like I said, it does not budge.

Overall:

I like this mascara. I would probably repurchase it, especially in the summer months when I will be sweating a lot. It holds a curl well, and does give me some extra length in my lashes. The brush grabs each lash.

The thing about mascara is this, you have to try it and see what works for your lashes. Not all mascaras work for everyone. Luckily, this one is cheaply priced that if you don't like it, you didn't spend a whole lot of cash on it.

What do you think of this mascara? Love it? Hate it? Leave me a comment and let me know!

Cooking for a Crowd: Spaghetti Sauce

My family likes to save money when we have parties. One way to do so is to cook everything ourselves, instead of hiring a caterer. Today, I wanted to give you a recipe for spaghetti sauce that will feed a crowd. This recipe is best made in an 18 quart roast pan. We bought most of our sauces and tomato paste at Costco. Ingredients: 2 onions 3 cans diced tomatoes 2 #10 cans of tomato sauce 1 #10 can on spaghetti sauce 1 heaping tsp of garlic minced 2 (28 oz) cans of crushed tomatoes 4 (6 oz) cans of tomato paste 1 tsp sugar Onion and garlic salt, italian seasoning, parsley, oregano to taste 1 pound of each: ground meat, hot and sweet sausage Look at the deliciousness! In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

It's Been Awhile...

Hi! Do you remember me and this little blog? I've been thinking about starting this blog back up again, and I am just going to jump in with both feet and go for it! In the past what, 4 years since the last post, I have learned a lot, and have a lot to share! So if you'll bear with me, I'd love to share some fun tips and tricks and recipes with you here on this little space on the internet. I will give you a little reintroduction of myself. I'm Mandii.

*Warning: this will be a long post, and picture heavy!* :) Strictly based on the title alone I should have caught your attention! Sunday was the Alex Goot concert. It was at bar in Pittsburgh, and there were about 5 acts to the show! You definitely got your money's worth! I went with my cousin, Allie (you can find her blog here! ) and it was just a fun girls night! The show was in a bar which used to be an old church, so it was very pretty inside. We got there around 6, parked, and only had to stand in line for 10 minutes before we got to go inside. When we went in, we got our tickets scanned and BAM , there was Landon Austin and Luke Conard at their merchandise table. So, because I somehow gained oodles of confidence*, Allie and I went over and I said "Hi Landon!" He said "hi" back and asked me my name. I had a card for him so I handed it to him and he asked if he should open it now or later. I said that it was up to him. We moved on to Luke Conar...
