quintissence...maybelline "great lash"

we have to describe a "quintissential" item...meaning the epitome of that item, and i chose mascara because everyone knows there is only one mascara that stands above all, and that's maybelline's great lash.

if you're looking for the quintissential mascara, and i know all you guys are, i would have to say to go with maybelline great lash. know for it's neon great cover and hot, yet soft pink bottle color with pitch black "GREAT LASH" letters written across the bottle, maybelline's great lash was the first modern mascara ever made, created in 1913 by a chemist named t.l. williams for his sister mabel. he worked for maybelline. it was, and still is made from coal dust mixed with vaseline petroleum jelly. the first mascara ever made in this world was developed in the 19th century by eugene rimmel, and in france and italy, people still call mascara "rimmel" after the person who came up with the idea. maybelline's great lash is also known for it's huge success, making the thinnest eyelashes into thick, long, beautiful lashes full of life--i would know from experience. there are never any clumps or blobs left on your eyelash, sticking out like a fly, but the perfect brush with the perfect formula gets smoothly applied every time, even if the applier isn't very experienced. the mascara not only says that it's the quintissential mascara, being named "great lash" or seeing how it was the first modern mascara and it's still around, it shows accurate, consistent results. and this is why maybelline great lash mascara really is the most quintissential of all.

that's all...em...♥
