‘I tried TikTok's viral lash growth serum-infused mascara in its new shade and I'm obsessed'
I've always been blessed with relatively long eyelashes, not too straight and not too dense, but that doesn't mean I haven't wanted to encourage them to grow to that covetable, false-looking length we all want. I've tried plenty of lengthening mascaras that do a great job of creating a longer look, but what if there were a mascara that not only makes lashes look longer but also actually makes them longer with every wear?
TikTok went crazy for Glow For It's eyelash serum when it first released, and then beauty buffs were thrilled to try their eyelash serum-infused mascara when it originally dropped - but there was one slight fault. Suited to no-makeup makeup looks, the original Glow For It mascara only came in a natural brown shade. But they've now got a black mascara available, and needless to say, I was excited to take it for a spin.
Answering fans' outcry for a black shade, Glow For It released their new colour of the internet sensation mascara. But they didn't stop at a new shade; this mascara promises a next-level formula that does even more for your lashes than its predecessor.
Taking everything fans loved about the cult-favourite mascara, Glow For It upgraded the formula with tripeptides that work to ensure eyelashes appear longer, fuller and stronger, improving their strength and appearance with every use.
This innovative formula combines black pigment with powerful lash care actives to condition, strengthen, and visibly enhance natural lashes, whether you've already got naturally luscious lashes that you want to look a bit better or whether you're trying to encourage new lash growth.
I can't comment on the long-term effects of this mascara yet, though my experience using the iconic lash growth serum was noticeable after just a few weeks of using it regularly. That said, this Glow For It Lash Focus mascara has claimed pride of place in my makeup routine now, as it seamlessly walks the line between makeup and self-care.
It has a visible impact on eyelashes upon application, even on lashes like mine that are already long and healthy. Without creating the dreaded spider-leg effect, this mascara clings to each lash for a volumised look that rivals false lashes.
Boasting a simple, spiral wand for precise and efficient application, this mascara delivers longer, fuller-looking lashes from root to tip. Thanks to the new black pigment, this mascara provides instant definition and a stand-out finish that works perfectly for simple, everyday makeup or a full-glam beat.
The only downside I've found, though it's a personal preference, is that it's not waterproof, so if you're prone to watery eyes, this mascara can begin to bleed and slip into your undereye area. That said, I did find it lasted all day, from early in the morning to late at night, without any visible change, such as smudging and flaking. However, the water-soluble formula does make the mascara super easy to take off with wipes and cleansers at the end of your day.
You can pick up my new favourite mascara directly from Glow For It for £19.99. Or, if you want to try out other serum-infused mascaras, Clarins has this SOS Lashes Serum Mascara for £29.99, while UK Lash offers this Lash Growth Serum + Volume Boost Mascara Set for the slightly higher price point of £45.90.
And it's not just me loving this new black Lash Focus Mascara, as plenty of 5-star reviews have already piled in. One satisfied customer shares: "quite easily my favourite mascara i've ever used (i've used so many). this product will keep your lashes looking like falsies. keeps my lashes curled all day. i am a carer and i enjoy feeling pretty, this mascara allows me to feel that. for the first time in my life, i feel naturally beautiful! the mascara, the lash serum, the brand, the employees - this brand is the epitome of perfection. i genuinely could not love a brand more. i will be forever thankful to the lovely daisy, and her team for what they've achieved and put out into the world! if i could recommend one brand for the rest of my life it would be glow for it!"
Another buyer beams: "Very fussy with my mascaras and this is the best of the best! Lengthens and provides volume without looking clumpy, even better that it's packed with all the good stuff to help keeping my lashes growing longggg! Love love love, can't say it enough."
And a third shares the same sentiment, writing: "So I already use the lash serum so my lashes are so long already. But after using this mascara it just enhanced them so much more. I love this mascara so much, it doesn't clump, it's easy to remove, doesn't weight down my lashes and makes them look much fuller and longer."

On her @bayleewhiteasheck account, she showed how she used a piece of cardboard to ensure the prints were spaced apart evenly. Two hours of stamping later, and her laundry room had gone from plain white to being covered in the gorgeous floral print. Baylee said: 'You know what? It worked out for me.' And she wasn't done yet. She added that she then added a hanging basket to the wall, along with some artwork a friend had made her. Showing off the finished result, she added: 'And that's my perfect, precious, gorgeous, beautiful cottage laundry room makeover for three dollars and fifty cents. 'Feeling absolutely unstoppable after finishing this project in two hours after putting my baby down. 'Maybe I'll like doing laundry now.'

TikTok user @lifeatthelma showed how she had picked out a gorgeous sage green paint and had then taped a decorative stencil to the wall. She thought everything had gone swimmingly, until she peeled back the stencil to reveal her hard work. To her horror, the paint had spread until the stencil and it looked messy and not like the design she had wanted. After she pulled off a larger section, she joked: 'But do we think it is giving cottage core (the goal) or chain link fence?'

Woman who lives on cruise ship reveals top ‘gross' habit she sees from guests
After living on a cruise ship for six months out of the year, a woman has pointed out the most disgusting habit she has seen from her fellow passengers. Christine Kesteloo, a 44-year-old business owner and content creator on TikTok, recently spoke to Unilad about what she notices when she is aboard the ship with her husband, who works as a chief staff engineer. While she told the publication that living on a cruise ship 'feels like a constant vacation,' she did admit that everything is not sunshine and rainbows. 'As far as gross [parts], I don't like when guests go to the buffet directly after the gym, [and] don't wash their hands,' Kesteloo said. Despite the drawback, the TikToker pointed out that she mostly enjoys her cruise life, noting that her ship only carries 1,400 passengers compared to larger and more commercial ships that house at least 5,000 people. 'Most of the 'myths' you have heard about cruise ships are wrong,' Kesteloo added. 'Yes, I do drink the water, and no, you can't fall overboard unless you are doing something you shouldn't. Cruising is safe.' However, the best part of living on a cruise ship, according to her, is the extra perks. 'I have been to 109 countries. I also don't have to pay for petrol, food, make my bed, do my laundry, or clean my room,' she said. Kesteloo also noted in an interview with The Mirror that every time she and her husband are on the ship, they stay in 'the best cabin in the whole entire ship.' The only amenity she does not take advantage of is the boat's casino. 'I am not allowed to sit at a slot machine and play my heart until I win because it would look a little weird if I, as the wife of the chief staff engineer, won like a big jackpot. So I am not allowed to gamble on the ship,' she said. And because her husband is an employee on the ship, she tries to ensure the guests are given priority over her. 'If the pool is packed, I make sure to get off and give the guests a seat, it's just the right thing to do,' Kesteloo said. 'I totally understand how to give guests the best time, and I don't think a crew member taking their seat is the right thing to do.'

I bought my own Build-A-Bear machine on Amazon – it cost less than one visit to the shop and you can make multiple toys
Plus, how to buy a bear for as little as £1 BEAR WITH I bought my own Build-A-Bear machine on Amazon – it cost less than one visit to the shop and you can make multiple toys Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MANY people have a fond memory of going to Build-A-Bear as a child to make a personalised teddy bear. However, one mum shared how she found an official home kit on Amazon which meant she could make multiple bears at home with her kids. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Kristin Miller bought a Build-A-Bear Workshop stuffing kit on Amazon Credit: TikTok/kristinniclemiller 3 She was able to make bears at home with her kids Credit: TikTok/kristinniclemiller Kristin Miller bought the Build-A-Bear Workshop Toy Stuffing Station on the online retailer, where it is currently listed for £39.84. In a clip on her @kristinnicolemiller_ account, she wrote: 'My favourite kids' find ever. 'This is my new go-to gift idea for kids!! Sooo cute yall.' This home stuffing station is a mini version of the real one at Build-A-Bear Workshop, giving kids the full experience of building their own bear—all from the comfort of home. It features an easy-to-use push-pump handle that fills your bear with fluff, while the secure nozzle keeps everything in place as your cuddly companion comes to life. After adding the sweet heart inside, your bear will be created and you can dress it in the outfit that comes with the pack. There is even a birth certificate to document the arrival of your furry friend. The kit comes with two unstuffed bears, ready to make into sweet cuddly toys for your child, however you can get additional bears to stuff for £12.91 from Amazon. The price of a classic Build-A-Bear varies depending on the size and type of toy, but a classic toy costs £25, meaning you'd typically have to fork out £50 for two. The at-home kit could save you some cash, and also be a great way to keep children entertained at home on special occasions. Brits urged to 'look in loft' as 5 popular 90s toys could make you serious money Many people were hugely impressed at the kit, with one saying: 'This is the best thing ever!!! I am going there tomorrow and definitely gonna pick this up for Christmas gift for my 2 girls!!!' Another added: 'I had this growing up and have been looking for it for my kids. THANK YOU!!!' And a third commented: 'Saving this and getting it for my niece this Christmas.' 3 Each kit comes with two unstuffed bears, but you can buy extra bears on Amazon Credit: Amazon PAY YOUR AGE Build-a-Bear's "pay your age" scheme means you pay your child's age for a bear on their birthday. You can grab the discount in your birthday month and for a bear that would normally cost £14, rather than on any toy which can cost up to £50. So if your child is turning seven, then you'll only need to pay £7 for the toy. The minimum payment is £1 though so if your baby is under one-year-old then you'll still have to fork out a quid. The Pay Your Age birthday month offer is available in stores only to Build-A-Bear Bonus Club members, but it's free to enrol.
