Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara Review

This mascara has been incredibly hyped up, so after seeing people raving about it all over Instagram, I decided to sneak it into my BeautyLish order. It arrived as glamorous as always with Too Faced - the packaging is fun, girly and high quality. This mascara is in a heavy (and huge) metallic pink tube with a large, hourglass shaped brush.

Unfortunately, this was where my excitement ended. The brush is far too large for my average sized eyes, making it difficult to get in close to the lashes to create length. It is not suitable for bottom lashes and it was rather tricky to avoid a mess. Adding to the difficulty of application is the formula, which is incredibly wet. I know us girls are hard to please, as we don't want a mascara that dries out quickly, but with such a large brush and an almost dripping formula, only the very skilled and patient would be capable of getting Better Than Sex results from this mascara. The end result was minimal length and clumping. I always resorted to using a separate mascara brush to finish off my lashes.

Formula has never been an issue for me with mascaras. I have never had a mascara transfer, smudge or run, and I have never seen my mascara anywhere other than my lashes. However, this mascara flaked off onto my cheeks when applying, as well as during the day. It smudged underneath my lower lashes, and ended up a mess when I sneezed. I occasionally get slight allergies, which has never caused issues with mascara, but on one particular day I ended up with black smudges all over the tops of my cheeks.

For a high end, hyped up mascara I was disappointed. I will not be repurchasing this mascara, and I do not recommend it.

I purchased this mascara about a month ago and have struggled to give myself rest days and not wear it EVERY. SINGLE. DAY since I opened it. First off is the packaging, I love it. Its quite a long metal tube with the writing embossed on and it's a beautiful colour and has a lovely feel to it. The mascara wand is weighted so I think this may contribute to why I've been finding it easier to apply. The brush itself is nothing terribly different to others I've seen before but the results I get from it are. Unlike most other mascaras where I need a couple of weeks to wait for them to dry out a bit and for me to get used to them this one was a winner from day one. The formula is not too sticky or wet and goes on perfectly without clumping my lashes or leaving big clumpy bits sitting on them. I get near enough to perfectly coated individual long lovely lashes from two coats of this mascara. I do find because the brush is quite big I do tend to get a bit of product up on my upper eyelids but I do also have quite long eyelashes so thats hard to avoid usually anyway. Some days I am left with a little bit of flaking or transference to the under eye area but it doesn't happen often and is usually when I've put it on first thing and haven't taken it off until around midnight. I have already posted a picture of my lashes using this mascara on the photo wall. Stalk me through my profile and maybe you'll be able to find it :D This is a fantastic mascara probably in in top two ever and I think I may miss it when I'm getting through the other three I have waiting to be used after this one's finished.

After watching a lot of youtube and seeing so many people rave about this I decided I needed to try it

I bought a deluxe sample size before I made the commitment to a big one.

The packaging is beautiful with a light pink metal and the name embossed on. the brush is pretty ginormous, I managed with this ok but it took some practise and lots of mascara all over my face.

this is a very black mascara which I love, its runnyish which doesn't help with the big brush but it does enable you to be able to do multiple coats.

I love the look of my lashes with this mascara, they become out of this world, with just one coat or 3. it does tend to be a bit clumpy but i don't mind that so much, after 3 coats my lashes no joke nearly touch my eyebrows and look full and lucsious.

unfortunately, this does irrritate my eyes a little (my eyes are a bit sensitive) so they burn a little only after wearing for a and hour or 2, I also get a lot of fall out from it, no matter how many coats I wear. being the small deluxe size to I found that the mascara in the tube dried out very quickly.

I guess all in all I have a love/hate relationship with this mascara, I probably would not invest in a large size of it but probably would repurchase a small tube, my lashes look amazing but it doesn't out way the fall out and burning eyes

I adore this mascara!! I am lucky enough to have long eyelashes but am constantly on the hunt for something to give me the volume I crave - I have found it! This is a mascara that does exactly what it says - it gives you thick voluminous lashes, its black as black can be and makes my lashes look so long that people ask if I'm wearing false lashes! I picked this up from Mecca in Australia and am gutted to not be able to find it for sale in New Zealand so will have to pay for shipping (booo!).

This mascara had been talked about everywhere, and I knew I had to get my hands on it. A beauty product that had the word sex in it!? And it may or may not be better than the deed itself... I was intrigued. I ordered from BeautyLish Boutiques and it arrived quite fast, despite the holidays going on in both countries at the time.

The tube is a soft metallic pink with the brand name in fancy italics and the name of the mascara, bold and in your face, in raised writing on the side. The writing is the same color as the tube, so it blends seamlessly, other than the fact it's raised. It's the only writing on the tube other than the sticker on the base. The lid twists off easily and as you pull the wand out of its cave you are greeted with a gorgeous brush.

The brush itself is supposed to be like a woman's curves, and I can see that, but it also just looks like a mascara wand. It's fat at the top and bottom and thinner in the middle. Definitely matches my body shape! The bristles are quite soft and they are thick with black mascara.

The formula of the mascara is, in my opinion, perfect. It's not dry so it doesn't drag your eyelid off your eye, and it's not so completely wet that just blinking makes it smoosh above and below the lashes. Although if you sneeze it will do just that, but as it dries fast it's easy to either pick off, of just use a makeup remover on a cotton bud.

My lashes become superstars when I use this. It's a term I never use, but this is my holy grail. It is the holiest of all grails. It's so easy to remove I could do it in my sleep and know I got it all off. It IS a clumpy mascara, and I thought I hated clumpy until I tried this. How wrong I was. So, is it better than sex? Well... I guess that depends on the sex ;-)

Too faced better than Sex Mascara. This product has a lot of hype around it and I had heard so much about this product, both good and bad. However the majority of things I had heard about it were good and so I had to buy it because what sort of beauty addict would I be if I didn't.

It comes in a beautiful pink tube, which almost has a frosted pink metallic finish. The tube is cool to touch, and is quite heavy as well so it feels expensive which is nice because this mascara is not cheap costing around $20 USD dollars.

The mascara brush is really large, and is actually a bristle brush which I love because these are getting harder and harder to find (or maybe it is just me). The mascara brush is quite bulky which makes it awkward to get close to your eye, but still I had high hopes for this product.

The formula seemed nice at first; it is jet black which is perfect because that’s the only colour I wear. However, the formula is really wet, and I mean really wet which can work really well with some products, but it does not work well with this one.

Seriously, doing one coat of this mascara leaves my lashes clumpy and looking terrible. It does add length, and a bit of volume but the clumps are something I cannot look past. Seriously, I was so disappointed with this product, and put this review off for the longest time just in case I managed to love it. I have to say that now the formula has gotten a bit drier, I do like the mascara a little more, but certainly not enough to pay big dollars for it.

I picked this up in Australia after seeing so many youtubers loving it and I have to say I am impressed.

It makes my lashes look amazing, nice and full and long and black. The formula is quite dry and I can see why many people may find it clumps and flakes easily however I have not had this problem yet. I love the big bristle brush.

My only issue with this mascara is that it transfers off so easily, I always come home with a little bit of smudging under the out corner of my eye, but that is an easy fix and my only issue with the mascara.

I'm a bit nervous about my review for this product bc so many people are in love with it. For me I don't have that type of relationship with it. I really had high hopes for this mascara but it's let me down sadly. A rose pink pastel mettalic tube with the too faced black calligraphy type branding on the tube. The brush is a big fibre type brush very tubular and almost an hourglass shape I like this kind of brush for me it indicates volume and separation. However looks can be deceiving. The formula is black jet black but also is quite wet therefore application becomes clumpy or transfer occurs during application either to the roots of my top lid or on my bottom undereye area it sux if you're in a rush don't use this. Due to the moisture wet formula it tends to clump on the lashes which sux. It can give full lashes though and make them look full only when you wipe off excess mascara on the wand/brush. The brush picks up at the roots & dispenses mascara over the lash nicely once you have the correct amount on the brush,which means wiping a lot of product off

This mascaras tube is super cute and the brush is amazing but it does not take long for this mascara to fall out on my face :( would absolutely love it because it really does apply the perfect amount of mascara on my lashes and fan them out beautifully!
