This mascara must be my one of my new favorite drugstore mascaras: Revlon Lash Potion: Volume + Length Mascara. Aside from the cute packaging, this mascara seems to deliver what it claims. It gives both volume and length, without clumping the lashes and it also contains strengthening proteins. On the pictures below, I’ve only applied one coat of mascara.

In order for the honey to have the exfoliating properties, it needs to be organic, raw honey, due to the fact that it is very grainy (I get mine locally, but nowadays they are sold in supermarkets in the “organic” section). If you don’t have raw…
