anyone who knows me really well will know that i will not go out without mascara. it's my one essential make up item. (i actually have like... three. but whatever.) so, i misplaced my FAVORITE mascara (maybelline, full and soft) so i went to buy a new thing of it, and there was this big display for this new stuff, lash expansion. so i bought some. and i HATE it. it's sticky, and too thick, and tooooo much and impossible to take off, and like, it flakes. it doesn't smudge but it flakes. and i get the flakes in my eye. grrrr. but, i'm going to have to give it one more chance tomorrow. alas, alas.
