My new favorite

Oh, Sephora!  How I adore you.

Yes, gang.  It's me (believe it or not).  I know I've been absent from

blogland for a couple of weeks, but I really am still alive.

And, of course I've made several visits to the brand new Sephora store

at Fashion Place Mall in Murray, UT.

My second visit, I actually bought a few things.

(Shocking, I know.)

The sales lady threw in a sample of Sephora's new

Atomic Volume mascara for me to try.

If you're a frequent flier here at the old blog, you KNOW

how vexing mascara is for me.

It typically slides right off my lashes within only a few hours of application.

I end up looking like a racoon.

Or, it flakes off and gets caught in my contacts.

Obnoxious!

Needless to say, I'm pretty picky when it comes to mascara.

So, I was pretty skeptical as to whether or not this

mascara would work for me.

I'm here to tell you, friends, that I was very pleasantly surprised.

It stays on all day and it doesn't flake off.

I don't have to do the Mineral Veil trick on my lashes with this stuff.

Amazing!

Of course, I had to go and buy a regular sized tube of it.

Love it!
