Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara Review

This mascara is my jam! It is my absolute favourite mascara so far. It makes my lashes look huge! The formula is great, its not too dry nor too wet and applies really well. The wand is a bit big so the product does transfer to your eye lid which is a bit of a pain. It doesn't come off easily so you do need a good eye make up remover for this.

A friend bought this for me in Aussie, so I got a surprise seeing the box, was relieved to see it was mascara...I have the waterproof one and I love it. My eyes are very sensitive and I have no problems with it.

From the first use i fell in love with this. I got it in the Hotel Grande Cafe set and i was a bit iffy on trying it as i heard mixed reviews HOWEVER it is such an amazing product! It coats all my lashes and leaves them full of volume and long. It even gets the ones that usually get left behind.

The applicator is kinda big, so i use this for my top lashes and to blend my lashes with falsies and use my Mac haute & naughty for my bottom lashes.

I have been using this mascara for about two years now and I absolutely love it!

My eyelashes are quite long but they sort of go downwards/outwards so a lot of mascaras you can barely see any pretty effect without a curler but I find with Better Than Sex the brush is able to curl my eyelashes upwards making my eyes really pop!

I also love how this mascara stays on all day but is super easy to remove! Although I prefer to use proper makeup removers this mascara comes off just as easily with water which is awesome.

The only complaint I seem to have with this mascara is it always runs out quite quickly. I can use other mascaras for ages but Better Than Sex seems to run out out after about 3 of daily months for me. Although in saying that I have read you should not keep mascaras for very long so perhaps this is really just good timing.

I was recommended this by this sales assistant at Sephora who said that this would really lengthen and curl eyelashes. I'd seen plenty of praise about this online as well so I thought I'd give it a try since my dior mascara was running out. I have worn this three times and all three times it turned out to be a colossal disappointment.

Things I like The shape of the want makes it easy to reach every eyelash, and it really fits the contours of my eye. The mascara does indeed make my lashes look thicker and longer and doesn't clump much.

Things I don't like After applying this my previously curled eyelashes drooped back to their sad straight state. It smudged all around my under eyes after just half a day out. The price is close to a high end mascara, but it really doesn't perform like one.

I don't know about others, maybe if your lashes are naturally curly this might be better for you. But my experience with this has been really disappointing. Perhaps I had been expecting a holy grail mascara but this is just a 'meh, pretty good' one for me.

I grabbed a mini of this from Mecca after hearing so many people rave about it. I'm pleased a grabbed a mini!!

I love the packaging and I think the name is funny! I love the sideways looks I've gotten from people when I've been talking about it!

However I found the formula a little clumpy and too wet. It certainly added volume and a bit of drama but I had to constantly wipe clumps off the brush.

I also found that about 4 hours after wear I would have Panda Eyes. It didn't like staying on my lashes. Even with primer on.

As much as I wanted to love this and for it to become my Holy Grail Mascara.. it's a no from me.

I tried so hard to love this but it just did not happen.

After reading rave review after rave review I thought this was going to become my HG mascara but was sadly disappointed.

Firstly the brush is pretty huge and I don't have the longest lashes so getting this on place other than my lashes was to be expected. What was not to be expected was that throughout the day it melted all over my face. I spent the day looking like a panda. The following day I tried to combat this with more under eye setting powder but I ended with the same result. From doing a bit of research some people believe this happens if you have oily skin but I'm on the dry side so not sure why this happened to me.

I then thought maybe it was because it was summer and maybe I was just getting a bit hot and bothered but it also happened in winter.

In the end I chucked this mascara out as looking like a panda was not the look I was going for.

I used this all the time! I love the volume and thickness this mascara gives me! I used this whenever I want to feel a little bit special or sexy :)
