Great for no-makeup looks

I think this came out quite recently, I remember seeing a poster of it and thinking, 'this looks promising!' So the adventurer in me decided to try it out even though I already have a couple staple mascaras.

The formula of this is very thin. It's almost liquid as opposed to the thicker gel like texture I'm used to. The only bad thing about this is that my lashes instantly lose their curl when I wear this. With thicker mascaras like One by One, my lashes can stay curled despite the mascara. This somehow makes my lashes flop back down again. And because I wear glasses, they end up sweeping all over my glasses like a mini black paint brush.

The applicator brush is a nice shape, with one side with short bristles and one side with longer bristles. The brush is a plastic one, and slightly curved to fit the shape of the eyelid. I really like the smaller side because it helps get into the base of my lashes and also my bottom lashes.

This isn't the best at staying. On days where I'm sweating a lot it'll start to smudge after a while. But for a day indoors with no major movement this is great.

Overall I think this is most suited to daytime use, when you don't want to have thick falsie like lashes. This gives a very natural look with slight volume. The only thing to beware of is it'll straighten out your lashes if they're curled.

Best mascara

If you aren't willing to spend a fortune on makeup, then I think this mascara is great value for money! And it really adds volume and seperates the lashes.

Awesome mascara

Tried using before/after and with/out false lashes, works really well looks pretty on the lashes. The water proof type does not run and is a little bit hard to get off with makeup wipes and liquid remover.

Tips: Wipe most the product off the wand and apply thin layers of the product to make it less clumpy and lashes a lot longer

I want to like this

I got sucked into the hype attached to this mascara, but I am only just starting to warm to it. If you don't wipe off some of the mascara from the wand it can be very clumpy and appear almost spidery once applied. It can also be really difficult to remove.

Tips: If you want a more natural look, use the underside of the wand!

HOLY GRAIL STATUS!

This mascara has done wonders for my lashes! I'm a fan of maybelline mascaras, the colossal was my number 1 for about a year but since getting the lash sensational I haven't touched any of my other mascaras! I've always struggled to find a mascara that can hold a curl, but if I curl my lashes before using this one, it holds the curl so well!

Tips: At first I was a little disappointed in this product, it can get a little messy! After using it a few times it worked a lot better, not sure if it was because the product had dried up a little or I was just getting used to applying it! When applying it works best if you make sure there isn't excess product on it and use the side with the longer bristles to reduce the amount of clumping.

Also if you're having trouble getting it off, try coconut oil on a cotton ball!

Not a fan

Not a fan at all. I purchased the waterproof version of this and it made my lashes gross and clumpy. My wand was all gluggy and it just looked horrible. Not too sure if it was because i got the waterproof one but i wouldn't recommend using this!

Dramatic lashes - my holly grail

I'm always looking for a mascara that makes my lashes longer, curls and makes my eyes pop. This is it! If you are after a dramatic look you will get it with this. I love the fact it stays in place and does not flake. The brush is curved, with a smaller comb on the inside of the brush making it easier to get to those tiny lashes that almost always seem to get forgotten. And a larger brush that creates the drama. I've been on the look out for something similar to Yve Saint Laurent curl mascara with out the hefty price tags and this beauty is comparable (my opinion).

The only con I have is removing it can be annoying. But a little patience goes along way.

messy

Not so sensational. I bought this mascara thinking awesome it's bound to work it's by a great company an was in my budget at the time. I noticed the brush had two sizes / sides to use. Top lash bottom lash maybe? I tried both ways an I got nothing but clumpy. Tried it again the next day and similar results but left it on to see if it would even out. It didnt then started to flake an sting my eyes :( This was disappointing for me the mascara literally fell off my lashs no idea why but it wasn't working for me.

Tips: Go lightly an even. Try a minimum amount to test as it did sting for me.

wow!

My eyelashes have never looked so big! Love this stuff! I have very small lashes so I never get my hopes up when it comes to trying new mascaras but this one is by far better than any others I've ever tried. I've already recommended it to friends and family who have gone out and bought it and also love it. This is my new holey Grail mascara.

Tips: I found it looks better if you put it on with a very light hand. Don't pile it on. Just a little at a time, slowly.

Where hast thou been all my life?!

Surely a cheaper drug store brand of mascara wouldn't do what all those high end expensive ones would?! I was skeptical but after reading the glowing reviews in BR on this I HAD to try it for myself. I am always on the look out for a great mascara that will make my 'hardly there' lashes make people want to stand up and pay attention.

The packaging! Omigoodness you can't get much sexier and girly than this tube. It's a pastel pink/purple which screams feminine to me. It's sleek and fits perfectly in any makeup bag for when you are on the run. The wand itself excites me most of all. It is curved to my eye shape which allows me to distribute the mascara evenly and precisely. It even curls my lashes a tad while I apply it, The wand holds just the right amount of product without grabbing too much or having the goopy mess on the tip like some mascaras do.

I start at the root of my lashes and wriggle the wand up through them to ensure that all lashes get a good coating of this black magic. I do two coats to make sure that I have all the oomph I need and want. I do the same to the wispy bottom lashes. After I am finished I look like I have dolly lashes! WHOA! In love already!

What I love most about this mascara besides the obvious performance is that it doesn't dry hard on my lashes. It remains soft and it doesn't clump my lashes together. It keeps them separate and shows volume as well as length. It lasts all day long without smudging or washing off in the rain! I have a new best friend and at $23 it will be BFF's!!

Tips: Start at the root of the lashes and wriggle the wand up through the lengths to get the best coverage
