A Festival Makeup Bag

Hey everyone! Some of you may know that in the UK festivals are huge and I was lucky enough to go to T in the Park in Scotland. It rained, I had to sleep in a tent and the phrase "swimming in mud" was no longer metaphorical but nevertheless, I had the most amazing time. The line up was incredible and being with my friends made it all the more bearable ... last cheesy line I promise! 

I thought I would show you the makeup I took with me as I know some of you may also be going to a festival, but this also would be great makeup to bring to the beach or for a very relaxed day.

L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Review

As a big fan of L'Oreal mascaras, when Cheryl Cole popped onto the TV fluttering her eyelashes, I got rather excited. I love the original Telescopic mascara and the promise of a "false lash effect" was too good to resist.

The packaging is very similar to the original Telescopic, however, it is silver instead of a matte gold. I much prefer the new packaging. The main difference is the brush, the original is very thin with small plastic bristles, whereas the new version tapers into the middle. This makes it much easier to use and I find much more volumising and curling.

The effect that the new brush gives is incredible, my lashes were so voluminous and curled. The original mascara is much more defining and lengthening but I absolutely love the new one!

To be honest, both of these mascaras are amazing, it really depends on what you are looking for when buying a new one. I personally prefer the False Lash Telescopic because I love my lashes to look dramatic but the original is still very good. I got it from Boots for £10.99 - a bit pricey for a drugstore mascara but completely "worth it".
