Like most women I am on the quest  for the perfect lashes.  Unfortunately, I wasn’t born with long voluminous lashes like my father so I have to create them.  I still adore Dior mascara but spending $24 for mascara in this economy does not always feel good.  I headed to my local drug store to see what I can find.  Maybelline’s Lash Stiletto immediately stood out to me.  The product packaging is perfect.  Long, sleek, and black.  And what girl wouldn’t enjoy eyelashes that were long and sexy like a stiletto?  I was sold. 

I agreed to use the product for one week.  Ultimately, I was disappointed with Maybelline’s Lash Stiletto mascara.  It separated my lashes to the point that I looked like I hardly had lashes, and my lashes did not look longer at all.  My eyes did not appear to have any mascara on no matter how many coats I put applied.  The product might work better for eyelashes that are already full and long, but again it hardly looks like mascara is on.

Final say: Don’t waste your money or time.  Stick with Maybelline’s Great Lash for a few bucks less.

On Thursday went with the family to see the movie Hancock.  I had read some of the reviews and the critics hated it.  Apparently the twist in the middle was too unbelievable and did not add to the plot.  As much as I agree with critics on films, I made up my mind when I saw the first preview for Hancock that I wanted to see it.

Spoiler Alert

My vote. 21/2  Glamour Stars
Why do you ask?  Who knew Charlize Theron would be his immortal beloved, that could only be loved from afar.  Who knew love took away powers?  (Well we all do.  I was in love once and could not concentrate on anything but that person and felt I was solely living to make him happy.)  I think without the twist in the film the movie would have been completely useless.  I will admit I have a serious crush on Will Smith, but  I still think he did a good job in the movie. ( I felt he did a great job in I Am Legend.)  Jason Bateman was also funny as the warm hearted public relations guy, but I felt anyone could have played that role. 

Although I enjoyed my experience with the film I don’t need to see a part two to Hancock and I don’t have to know his real name or if he is truly from another planet.  Notice I have yet to mention the whole superpowers aspect.  I actually felt that was the weakest part of the film.  Watching Hancock fly over the 110 Freeway or throw a fat French kid in the air was just boring and expected.  And being a booze loving superhero is even more of a cliché.

Bottom line:
Wait for the DVD.
Let me know how you felt about Hancock.
