Mascara, anyone? Everyone? Yeah, you right!

{SIDE-NOTE:  If you need a prompt to enter, tell me WHY you love mascara!}

I am a woman.

I love pretty things.

I love accessories.

But there is one accessory that I know some of you don't have.

Confidence.

Yup, more women need it.

I did not always have it and sometimes it fades.

It's one of those things you constantly have to work on.

Kinda like your favorite ring. You have to shine it up when it tarnishes or fix the clasp when it breaks.

You get my drift, right?

And there is always that one thing (maybe two) that helps us feel our very best, right?

There are two things that help me feel confident:

A good hair day and mascara.

I have short hair and do not leave the apartment without it being fixed. And I never ever leave home without mascara. If I had to choose one make-up product for the rest of my life, it would be mascara. And trust me when I say that I have tried them all.

So, when Blogher contacted me about Cover-girl's "Facing the World with Confidence" asking me to share my story, I was thrilled because it was a way to spread confidence to other women and talk about mascara!

My story is a little different. You see, I just switched careers. I went from a corporate job to becoming a pastry cook. Now, I know what you are thinking...pastry cooks need to feel confident? Of course they do. We make other people's special days even better, so we always need to love what we do. And boy, do I! I am a new person now that I am doing something I am passionate about. I am more confident than ever before. 


And how does this tie into COVERGIRL LashPerfection™? Because it was the only thing I wore to do my first trail at the bakery. And now that I have the job, it is the only thing I wear on my face. It makes me feel and look bright eyed working long hours.  And to top things off, it shows off my best feature -- my eyes.

I truly love Lash Perfection Mascara and may have already bought a tube to carry around with me wherever I go. And while we’re on the subject of make-up and looking great, you might want to check out the “Looking Your Best” posts in Life Well Lived section for Blogher. There are some great application tips and ideas for switching up your look for fall!  

I know. I know. This has been all about me. You want to know what is in it for you, don't cha? Well, how about $50 gift card to drugstore.com to maybe, perhaps, buy some mascara for yourself????

Awesome, right???
