mascara fiasco.

my secret obsession:

mascara.

opening a new bottle is like Christmas all over again.

*that lovely snap sound it makes as you pull the brush out for the first time.

the first application is of course, perfection.

it's breathtaking.

L O N G, LUSCIOUS, THICK.

i love mascara.

the only kind i despise is waterproof.

it is impossible to remove.

it not only doesn't come off easy on the lashes, but also on the SKIN.

so, once it's on; it's on.

this morning, i had a bit of a meltdown.

i had just purchased a new bottle. i, naturally, was excited.

as i applied it, i noticed it was quite different from what was expected from mascara.

well hey, this was a new brand. maybe thats just how it was?

i tried rubbing off what got on my eyelids.

IT DIDN'T COME OFF.

i had accidentally purchased the dreaded WATERPROOF mascara.

this was absolutely unacceptable.

and so my morning ended badly.
