Every night, I make an honest attempt at removing my mascara and eyeliner, just like every good, sty-fearing, little girl should. I cannot seem to find a product that quite satisfies all my needs. First and foremost, it must be oil free, second, it must be reasonably priced, and thirdly, it has to remove makeup! Maybe my problems are indicative of Maybelline and L'Oreal's talent for making indestructible mascaras, but I am not willing to give up waterproof just yet. Here is a quick review on products I have tried-

*Olay Daily Facials wet cleansing cloths-
Pros: -Cloth material doesn't disintegrates, so when you have to use
force you don't get clumps of tissue sticking to your skin
-Lots of room on the cloth
-Takes off non-waterproof makeup well
Cons: -Drys up because the package is difficult to keep closed
-Will never take waterproof eye makeup completely off, or at
lease takes more than 10 minutes, at which point I'm over it
anyway.

*Mary Kay Oil-Free Makeup Remover and Neutrogena Oil-Free Makeup Remover-
Pros: -Much more effective than Olay at removing waterproof makeup
Cons: -Has to be used with durable yet disposable cloth because tissue
disintegrates, and cotton rounds aren't big enough.
-Says oil-free, but stys seem more frequent when this is my
makeup remover.
-Drives me crazy, "Okay now is it off? How 'bout now?....NOW?!?"

I could keep going, as I've tried out many products from many brands, but it all comes to the same conclusion.
I'm looking for something that not only removes waterproof makeup, but doesn't require getting rough with my eyelids and lashes. The fewer the steps and amount of time it takes, the better it is.
So, do I have to stop being so picky, or is there some great makeup remover out there that I don't know about yet?

Okay, so the Chanel Black Satin nail polish isn't new, but it took awhile to grow on me. I just can't imagine paying more than $10 for nail polish or anything that has a limited life...not just with changing styles but also considering the fact that all cosmetcis expire at some point and chemically break down.
Hooray! I have finally found affordable black nail polish that isn't made for halloween. Now my Grandma can ask me if I'm gothic tomorrow during Xmas dinner ;p Lots of drug store nail polish has darker shades, but I hadn't found one without some metalic/glittery glare to it. I just wanted something solid, shiny, and black (not some purple-ish immitation). So thanks N.Y.C. Cosmetics, for satisfying me financially, but realizing that I left the metalic stuff behind in 5th grade...and it should stay there.
Compare away, only 99 cents.

N.Y.C. Long-Wearing Nail Enamel in Black Lace Creme

So, I had bleach blonde hair from the time I was 13 until about 2 months ago (6 years total)...and I gotta say, it freaked me out at first. Lots of people say they like it, but you know...if it looked horrible I don't think they'd say "I like blonde better"...but who knows...all I know is that I just realized I love it. Sorry to bore anyone who actually reads this, I was just excited. click the blonde to see the dark.

Last thing I got was Armani Mania. I don't really want to spend hours roaming around the perfume counters, everyone there thinks their product is the best anyway. Keep in mind that I wouldn't like to smell like any discernible fruit or flower. So, it is time for a new smell. any suggestions?
