 Hey guys, welcome back! I'm so happy to see you today. Not that I can really see you, but in my mind's eye I can because I recognize so many of your names when you leave me comments and then I'm seeing so many new folks join me here on the channel and I so, so totally appreciate all your support. Today's going to be a really short video. It's going to be a giveaway so I'm not going to be able to reply to any of the comments. I'm going to leave the giveaway open for a week and what the winner is going to win is they're going to win some of my very favorite eyelash serum. I know you guys know exactly what it is because I've been raving about Blink for a long time. The most exciting thing and I've talked about the Blink eyelash serum before but the most exciting thing is that they now have a distributor in Canada and in the US so you can actually purchase it both in the US and in Canada so if you're interested in that I'm going to link all the information below but the winner of this giveaway is actually going to win two bottles of Blink and there's going to be something you're going to have to say in the comments below to make sure that you're entered into it so make sure you watch the entire video. This is all about eyelashes and a little bit about mascara. So I have been for gosh for a long time since 2016 I've been using an eyelash serum. I'm going to link some of the earlier videos so you can see I never had eyelashes ever and I went through care pros, I went through a whole bunch of different other eyelash serums and also Blink. Now the Blink product has the same ingredients the bit of my boast I know I'm not saying that right and of course if you're going to be using this or if you're going to be using any eyelash growth serum you need to make sure that you're watching and you're monitoring so you have no side effects so I just want to get that on the table because there are side effects and you need to be responsible enough to watch your eyes and if you do happen to have a side effect to stop using any kind of product I've been really blessed in the fact that I have had no side effects. My blue eyes have not changed I don't have any any more additional specs on my lids or anything of that nature. What has changed is my lashes they have grown and continue to grow in fact two weeks ago I had to trim them so I have never had false lashes on false eyelashes other than when I was maybe 16 and I wanted to be like twiggy a fat version of twiggy because I was never skinny in my entire life that you know what I'm saying so back in the day when I was a teenager I did use false eyelashes I did glue them on and they were like really awful I didn't really like them but in my adult years I've never used false eyelashes I have just my own eyelashes now with mascara and most of it is the products that I've been using on my eyes so at night I use my blink I've been using blink at night probably about four times a week on the nights that I use my eyelash serum I make sure that I remove all my makeup with an oil free makeup product I usually use a quaint I make sure there's no build-up of oil at all or if I am using any kind of an oily cleanser make sure that you rinse it really well because it can inhibit the serum from absorbing into your skin into your lashes then I take the little brush that comes with it and there's a tiny little brush that comes with it and I usually you know I sanitize and I've mentioned this before so I'm not going to go into great detail but I usually put a drop in here and I wet my brush and I apply it like eyeliner on each you know and I dip a couple of times you know until that's dried up so it might be two swipes three swipes each eye it all really depends but I swipe each eye and then any residue I have left over I just go through my brows why I do my brows I don't know I figure hey if it does something for my eyelashes I do something for my brows too although I don't really know so I do that probably about four nights a week when I'm not doing that at night I'm using black castor oil and I have one of these little you can you can actually oh I got a little hair on this you can actually buy these little tubes on amazon and it's like it's an empty mascara tube and you know that I actually coat the castor oil on my lashes I coat it on my brows so that I do and then in the morning I have been using and this was actually sent to me complimentary from city beauty I use the city lash I use city lash every morning I use my my blink at night and I use city lash in the morning I feel the city lash is like doing super super job of conditioning my lashes maybe I'm overdoing it I don't know but I believe this really does a beautiful job on conditioning my lashes make feeding my lashes making my lashes feel and look good and maybe even given a little bit of curl that's what I'm thinking anyways so in the morning I use the city lash I really like this a lot I really do but at night I'm using my blink about four nights a week sometimes five it really all depends and then the off night I use black castor oil on my lashes that's pretty well what I'm doing for my lashes so the other thing that blink has come out with they have come out with this really really cool and I've mentioned this a couple of times this made my may favorites this is like an air cushion brow dye type of a thing and it just kind of it what I really like about this is that it really it's easy to use it's almost foolproof as far as being able to do your brows and it lasts all day so I'm really really liking that a lot for my and I apologize in advance for this is a mess I should have got my unopened one in the morning after I do my wash and all that and I do and I normally put the city lash on I let that dry I prime my lashes I have been loving and I've tried many different others I've tried the Maybelline I've tried the Revlon I've tried many what I have here is the L'Oreal and I have the Pure I've tried High End that I was sent to me and I've tried Low End and the Essence lash primer is my favorite favorite favorite primer and sometimes you can get this like $3.99 it's amazing so I prime my lashes every morning I let that dry and then I go to my go-to one of my go-to Mascaras now I ran out of my it's superhero I do have a unopened package I'm not going to open it yet so I didn't bring it in because I want to go through some of the Mascaras that I have I've gone through a lot these are almost all gone and I made a decision that life is too short to keep playing with Mascaras that just simply don't work for you and while these are lovely Mascaras the Tarte Mascara this is the Wanda Lash Mascara Wanda is it Wanda Beauty I see what it really is so I can give you Wanda Beauty this is the Grand Mascara and this is the Pure these are the ones that I have I've been trying to go through and finish I made a decision that I'm not going to finish things that I no longer like or aren't really going to work for me I'm just going to toss them so what I have been using what I am going to finish using because I really really like them one is the YSL the shock I finished the black one I love the black one I mentioned for a high-end mascara that was like wow did I love it I still have the blue I don't use the blue all that often so this is sealed nice and tight for those occasions when I want the blue I like it the Sigma and this was sent to me in a PR package with the Sigma brushes the Sigma Mascara I just use on my lower lashes because the brush is really fine to me that's a fine brush so I just use that mainly on my lower lashes and I really really like it so the mascara of choice is still my essence in purple and I really like this one a lot this is the essence this is the essence lash princess comes in the black tube with the purple accents and writing this is my drugstore mascara that I really really like I do want to try a couple of the mascaras that the CYO brand has but I haven't got them yet but I do want to try them because I really am fascinated with their product line so I'm going to try that one I can get my hands on one this is my mascara of choice my second mascara of choice is my superhero I do have a better than sex one I should have showed that I do have a better than sex one from Too Faced that I think I'd gotten it maybe in a boxy charm a while ago and it is open and I am using it so this is what I'm going to finish using while I have them here and this is what like I said the essence how can you beat that price so I have the essence primer the essence mascara I really like it and that's pretty well what my routine is so for those of you that have asked am I using false eyelashes no no no I'm not suppose I could if I wanted to but but I'm not and I think my lashes are pretty pretty darn good so on my head today because people always say oh Monica your hair looks lovely I do love my hair and it is my hair it just isn't my natural hair but I do own this this is this is the Raquel Welch and this is editor's pick in Shaded Cappuccino and I just have it pulled you know pulled off the air here with a little glittery little um bobby pin and other
