Essence Lash Princess Sculpted Volume Mascara Review

I bought this on a whim. Happened to be in Farmers and saw it, thought it had good packaging, and for the price- why not?! Pros: - This is a nice formula, gives good additional length to my already pretty long lashes, and stays put unless I rub my eyes, in which case, it flakes, rather than panda-s. - The packaging is eye catching and pretty, it doesn't feel expensive, but then, it isn't! - The wand separates the lashes pretty well, and it does do a good second coat without clumping which is my usual problem. Cons: - It's not the best for the lower lashes due to the width of the wand at the base of the curve- I find it transfers really easily to my under which I fins super frustrating. - It does flake after long wear, regardless of if you catch it with your hands or not, but that's after maybe 10 hours, so would be fine for a night out.

Overall, I'm a fan of this mascara, it gives me a pretty doll-eyed look which I like for a night out, but it's a little much for every day! For the price you pay, I honestly don't think you can beat it.

Heard rave reviews about essences lash princess mascaras, and found them at farmers for $7?ish and thought I'd give it a go. I have a love hate relationship with this mascara. It lengthens my lashes like crazy, but I've had this over a month now, and the formula is very wet, and I find there is alot of product on the wand which ends up in clumps on my lashes. I had the same experience with Maybelline lash sensational but after a few uses it dried out Abit and worked amazingly, but the lash princess still feels very wet and clumpy. I've never had an issue with mascaras transferring and smudging on my eyelids before but I do with this mascara. I have to powder my eyelids like crazy and still find myself wiping smudges off during the day. To get rid of clumps, I have to take a spoolie through my lashes. It's cheap, it lengthens very well but I still find I have to put alot of effort into making this "work".

My absolute fave!!

I saw an article on BR (or maybe a forum post?) about this product which was really positive. I purchased it for such a good price from Farmers as a result.

Initially it was really wet and gloopy and smudged easily. But after using it a couple of times the formula seemed to thicken and stabilise, and WOW was I impressed.

My lashes looked long, full, curled, and the darkest shade of black. Dare I say it, this beats Too Faced BTS based on having the same impact, but for a much lower price.
