Yves Saint Laurent The Shock Mascara - Asphalt Black

The voluminous mascara promises dramatic results. It promises with one coat it will give you voluminous lashes. The mascara did go on smoothly at first but after a few uses, I got clumps. The mascara also took a bit longer to dry than other mascaras because I always ended up with smudges. I also noticed that this tube of mascara dried out quicker than my other brands. I don't feel like it was worth it for me.

YSL The Shock Volumizing Mascara

The volumizing mascara promises to coat each lash with a single stroke. It promises not to clump and provide volume for days. I found the mascara to go smoothly and provided a thick fringe. I noticed that it did take a while to dry because I got smudges even after a minute or two after application. Personally, I felt like the mascara was very clumpy. Overall, it wasn't my favorite.

Yves Saint Laurent – Instant Eye Make-Up Remover

Almost every night I try to use my Clarisonic brush to remove my makeup, but there are some nights where all I want is my bed [or I am just lazy].  The YSL Instant Eye Makeup remover works exceptionally well at removing both waterproof and non-waterproof mascara and makeup.  It is very gentle, effective and not greasy.  It doesn’t leave a trace of makeup behind or film from the remover. Best part of using this make up remover is that you don’t have to tug or pull or rub roughly against your skin to remove the makeup. My skin was left feeling silky smooth and soft after using the makeup remover.
