Mother's Day- A Present Odysee


“No gift to your mother can ever equal her gift to you - life” (Unknown Author)

This might very well be true, but we will be damned if we wouldn’t try! With Mother’s Day just around the corner, we don’t all of the sudden remember how much we love and cherish our mothers, because we love them every single day of the year (well, most of us do). No, we feverishly try to come up with a brilliant idea of what to get her this year and remember all the gifts we have given her throughout the years on this special day. There where the compulsory self- made cards, clay ashtrays, breakfast in bed, unpolished but charming poems and flowers, lots of flowers. And whereas lovely mother always politely smiled and thanked us for our hand- crafted gifts or last- minute bought chocolates, we sometimes couldn’t help but feel guilty. Guilty because how do you match the gift of life? With theater tickets? Did your mother out – do you in the gift department for all eternity when she gave birth to you? Maybe the ‘Unknown Author’ was right!
So where do we go from here? Obviously we still will keep trying; however, we should give up on the ‘equal’ idea since nothing is as precious as life, mother wins this round. But we can try to give back! And why not getting our mums some fabulous blinc mascara or even the heated lash curler? Every woman deserves to be treated and look like a queen. And truth is, mummy might have had to put up or still puts up with dirty laundry, fighting siblings, teenage tantrums and dyeing hamsters but she is a woman after all. A woman with a desire for beauty. Get her something this year she’ll actually use and don’t forget a big thank you. Happy Mother’s Day to all you gorgeous mummies!

Award-winning Adele dazzles at the Grammy's





Adele looked flutteringly fabulous as she scooped up 6 Grammy awards this weekend.


The pop diva glowed at the ceremony held in Los Angeles, in her figure hugging black dress but here at Blinc we couldn't help but notice her flawless make up. Adele's eyes sure stood out as she posed for pictures on the red carpet. We love her simple simple eye make up with statement lashes.


At Blinc HQ we have the perfect products to achieve Adele's fluttery lashes.


Prep your lashes with the Blinc lash primer (rrp £12.80), it conditions, strengthens and volumises lashes creating a base coat around them.


Then add a stroke of Blinc mascara (rrp £18.50) we recommend using black if you want to resemble Adele's look, but if you want to change it up a little you can choose from dark blue, medium brown, dark green, dark purple and dark brown.


Blinc allows you tube your lashes rather than paint them. For a simple everyday look apply one coat, but for full-on glamour puss eyes lather up and watch your lashes transform.


If like Adele your off to an emotional event and want to save yourself the dismay of panda eyes, you have no need to worry as Blinc mascara is water-resistant. Just use a little warm water and pressure to remove of the mascara.


Get your Blinc on with our innovative mascara and enjoy lashes which don't clump or smudge.
