Things I've been loving lately: YSL Baby Doll mascara is the best I've ever used. 4 Real

May god forgive me for not writing about this THE INSTANT I got a hold of it.

For it is THE most brilliant mascara I'VE EVER USED.  In my life.

The brush is a clean spiky affair - it gets every single lash, even those teeny ones. There's no problem with product overload or having to pump or wipe the brush to remove excess - the wand magically has just the right amount of product loaded on it.  The black shade (Fetish Black and you have to love that name too) is a fantastic blacker than priests socks black.  The impact is incredible.  Instantly your lashes are fuller, more dramatic and superbly defined.

The blue shade also rocks - blue mascara is just so flattering - if you haven't tried it you'll be surprised.

My eight year old godson was round in the house the other day and after I'd done a Skittles Manicure on his sister using the new Essie Summer shades, he decided he'd have one  done too for fun.   Much hysteria ensued and emboldened he returned to the garden where we were sitting with his parents, drinking pink wine.

"Your eyes!" we exclaimed as one.  "Like them?" he chortled waving my golden tube of YSL Baby Doll.

And in truth his lashes were DRAMATIC.  "I'm getting some of that" exclaimed his mother.  (His father said something quite different but we won't get into that).

Look excuse all the superlatives, I wouldn't steer you wrong, if you're a fan of dramatic mascara you're going to love this one.  In fact if you buy one thing this summer make it this(€32.50).
