Mascara...friend or enemy?

Watch out! This...

Could make you look like this...

Scary, I know!

Sorry about the lame post title. This past week I have been in bed (for almost 4 days now) with huge puffy eyes (see picture above), a massive headache, dry mouth, and aching body. After about the third day I had my sister (who is an RN...I don't just ask anybody these things) call her doctor and ask what he thought my symptoms could be and how I should treat it. He said it was just allergies and a head cold. Bad combo...trust me, I know from experience. I've been taking so many pills! The only thing that would work for my headache was Maxal (GREAT stuff!) So it has been determined that I had an allergic reaction to a new mascara I tried. I've used Loreal Voluminous mascara for years and have loved it. Then me being thrifty (being a newlywed and all) saw a buy one get one free package of this new kind and thought I'd give it a try. Let's just say I'll go back to using my previous black eye goop.
