Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara Review

I have found that this mascara can be really fickle at times and one day be the best thing in the world giving you volume and length without clumping and then the next day it clumps up and gives you stunted looking lashes.

I have found you need to work with it for a long time as it is a more wetter formula of mascara and takes a while to dry down on the lashes so be careful not to smudge onto your skin as it will be there for a while before you can attempt to remove it.

However, on those days when it wants to perform it really does and makes my lashes look like they are fluttery falsh ones, which is amazing, but the chances that happens on the day I need it too is slim, and I end up getting very frustrated with this, there are millions of mascaras on the market and a large volume of them half the price of this one that do the same or better.

I first bought this early this year after seeing youtube video after youtube video of beauty gurus raving about it. I bought it for $35 which is quite alot for me as I am a poor uni student. So I used it for the first time how I would use any other mascara and.... It was CLUMPY, SPIDERY AND DID NOT LIVE UP TO THE HYPE. At least for me anyway... Maybe mine was a bad batch or something because there have been so many good reviews about this but I never wore it because it made my eyelashes look so yuck.

So for a few months I just continued wearing my Revlon mascara because it works and is safe for me. It ran out a few weeks ago and so I decided to go back to the Better than Sex mascara. This time, I used a new technique of application. As i pulled the wand out of the tube, I scraped one side along the edge. This means that one side of the wand has all the product and the other only has a small amount. I used the side will all the product on the ends of my lashes and used the side with a small amount from bottom to top. This made a big difference in how the mascara looked. I wear it a lot now (although that may just be because I have no other mascara to wear).

In conclusion, I would not buy this product again (nor would I recommend to a friend), as I know there are plenty more mascaras out there that work the same if not better. I will however keep using this until it runs out.

The mascara comes in a large size tube, making it easy to hold and find in my make up bag. The wand is long and the applicator takes on and holds quite a bit of mascara. I love how I could take my time to apply the mascara to my eye lashes as some mascaras start to dry really quickly on the wand.

I loved how dramatic and full it made my lashes, as my lashes need more oomph rather than length, and it definitely delivers!

The downside for me, is that mascara rubs off on my cheeks. I have very small almond shaped eyes with high cheeks, and when I smile, my cheeks rub up to my lashes, beauty problems!! I don't mind the occasional smudge say on a hot day, but this would happen all day long. I even made sure to not let my cheeks squeeze my eyes until they dried :( I switched to the waterproof formula but it did the same thing, though a bit less. So the waterproof one is is my current go to when I want a dramatic lash but also have access to a mirror often and can touch up.

While I love this mascara it does not live up to the hype.

I brought the small bottle to trial it and while I definitely love what it does it is rather flakey once dried and I always end up with flakes under my eyes and looking like my bottom lashes have disappeared within a couple of hours.

I have heard the waterproof version is better for not flaking but haven’t been game enough to try after this one.

I still do use this mascara most days as I love how it makes my top lashes look but I will apply another mascara to my bottom lashes.

I've always wanted to try Too Faced products even though they are shady as hell. I saw that the small BTS mascara was only $18 so I decided to try it out. I compare everything to my drugstore Wet n Wild Lash Renegade so when I tried out the high end mascara... let's just say I wasn't having it. I put it on my lashes and although I thought it was okay at first I later changed my mind.

I wore it to work where I sweat a lot since I'm around ovens and I'm running around for 9 hours. My lashes were noticeably shorter and flaky by the end of my shift. I thought about getting the waterproof version but I don't like waterproof mascara. I don't think it wouldve made a difference in the end. I haven't bothered to take it off at night so when I woke up this morning to black dots/mascara flakes all over my face, in all the places except for where it should have been, I was a tad shocked that it had shifted that much during the day and while I was asleep.

It's so messy when applying too. It went all over my eyelid and I had to remove it with a Q tip. I actually really like the wand but the formula is so off, they need to make a different formula. For the price they could do so much better.

This is hands down my favorite mascara in the world. It is the blackest mascara ever. If you want them blacker than black, this is the one for you. I love the packaging. It’s a pink tube with a great wand for volumizing and lengthening. I love mascara that gives dramatic length and volume. This is the best one I have found so far. Never get any smudging or crumbling. It’s perfect.
