I was really excited to try this new mascara from Charlotte Tilbury because, although I think that this brand has absolutely nailed so many of their products, I believe that the general consensus is that mascara isn’t really one of them.

I love so many CT products, but their mascaras have never made it into my permanent rotation. I think this one could be different.

You can see the mascara in action and how black it looks in this Instagram reel:

I think what I enjoy most about the Charlotte Tilbury Exagger-Eyes Volume Mascara is the lift and curl that it gives my lashes, even with just one light coat. It is very eye-opening which I love and it gives great volume without looking too heavy.

I really like the brush. It gets in nice and close to the root of the lash, and really grips on to give a lovely curl. The packaging does feel a little old fashioned, but I appreciate that the glass is meant to ensure that the formula stays as fresh as possible.

This formula has pretty good staying power, and I haven’t noticed any smudging or flaking. It stays put very well. The curl holds up too which I love.

It’s also pretty easy to remove. I just use an oil cleanser and it comes off quickly. When removing it, you realise how dense and intense the black pigment is, as it turns the cleansing oil super black as you work it over the eyes.

All in all, I think this is a great new mascara launch from Charlotte Tilbury, and I think it could be the one that all the CT fans have been waiting for.

The Best Brands for Natural Hair

hello everyone, I hope your summer is going well so far. This year is my healthy hair year so I’ve committed to better hair practices and routines. To go along with the above, I also made sure to upgrade my hair products. I am now looking for brands that have well formulated, well researched ingredients & products suitable for MY hair type, density & texture. These are the brands I have the products I absolutely love and have made a huge positive impact to my hair.

My hair is 4c low to medium density with very fine strands. I have low to medium porosity. I also have a texture release in( since May 2024). I will be listing the products I have been using from the brands. I purchased everything

Olapex- I tried Olapex last year when my shedding/breaking was out of control and I haven’t looked back! I mainly use this before & after my braids. It’s great for prepping hair for long term braids. Olapex works for natural hair that is extremely dry, damaged and excessively breaking/shedding. I love the No0 & 3 as well as No5- conditioner. Full review on Olapex here

Olapex for black natural hair

Keracare- Keracare is serious brand for natural hair. This year I learnt the importance of ph balanced hair products which made me appreciate the brand even more. The cleansing cream and butter cream is amazing for natural hair! Although as I have a texture release in, the buttercream feels slightly heavy & oily now but prior to the TR it was absolutely fine.

AffirmCare- this brand is from the same parent company as Keracare so Im not really surprised I love this too. I think Affirm is their professional line as I have mostly seen this available in hair salons. I love the light hairdress cream and the Hair Repair Masque. These have been a great addition to my hair since my TR

Briogeo- So everyone knows about the don’t despair repair deep conditioner which is 100% worth the hype by the way but I want to mention 2 other products, the don’t despair repair leave in conditioner and the matching shampoo.

These have been my go to brands this year. some of these products are pricey so do look for discounts when you can. I will be doing full reviews on all the products I have been using but I have linked reviews where Ive done them already.

Hope this was helpful

Catch you later
