Let me start by saying that my favorite part of doing my makeup is my mascara, yes MASCARA!! I think mascara is the High Heels of makeup. It is what completes your look and adds just the right touch of drama to make the look come together. I love a mascara that gives life to my lashes and looks amazing. I like dramatic eyes!
In the past few years I have tried many different mascaras and have realized that what may work great for one person doesn't necessarily work for the other. I like to try new mascaras and judge them for myself. Finding a GREAT mascara can be tricky and disappointing at times because not all of them live up to what they claim. Believe me, I have had many disappointments in the past few years but I have also found some treasures!
Below I will give my honest opinion on some of the mascaras I have tried.
Rimmel The Max Volume Flash Mascara
It is said to deliver 14x's more volume for more dramatic super charged lashes. It didn't deliver for me. It felt short on the Volume part for me. I tried it for a couple of weeks. I found myself having to keep on applying it on (about 5 times) and still seeing no results. My lashes didn't change much. I even tried it with another mascara and still didn't do anything for me.
Will not buy again :o(
Rimmel London Sexy Curves Waterproof Mascara
This is an ok mascara. I was expecting more because of all the rave but it was just ok for me. It has a full figure brush to deliver full figure lashes. After a few applications (probably 5 applications) my lashes did look ok. Nothing super dramatic but they looked nice. Too natural for my liking though. It is also said to have a plumping formula that strengthens over time. I tried it for a couple of weeks and I didn't see any results. The packaging is cute, the brush is a little weird and the mascara is ok.
Will not buy again :o(...Unless it is an extreme emergency and this is the only waterproof mascara available.
Maybelline Volume Express Turbo Boost Mascara
This was one of my 1st mascaras a few years ago. I do have to say, this is a pretty good mascara. It does take a few applications but not too many. I like the volume it gives the lashes and the way it makes them look. Definitely adds some drama to the lashes. It is thickening too which I love for the added dramatic effect.
I do remember someone asking me if I had fake lashes on...lol
Will buy again ;o)
Maybelline Lash Discovery
This is one of my everyday mascaras. I use this mascara for my lower lashes. I love the small brush because I can easily apply it to my lower lashes without any problems. It is also great for the corners of the lashes. It goes on super nice and clean. Gives nice volume, nothing very dramatic but nice enough to brighten the eyes. I even tend to use it on the weekends when I have to run errands and just need a pop of something to add life to my tired face...lol
It is also great for contact wearers and it is hypoallergenic. Big plus!
Will buy again ;o)
Cover Girl Lash Blast Lengthening Mascara
This is not one of my faves. I just don't see it doing everything it says it does. I find the brush too flimsy. My opinion at least. It does give a little bit of drama but nothing drastic. It's an ok mascara.
Will not buy again :o(
Maybelline Lash Stiletto Voluptuous Waterproof Mascara
Let me start by saying that this is a good mascara BUT it does have its uggg why moments. I love the volume and thickness it add. Goes on easily. Love the color. Dries pretty quickly which doesn't help very much since I tend to put on a few coats. This causes the mascara to flake. It continues to flake all day. I always end up having to clean under my eyes and cheeks due to the black specks that tend fall off during the day. Though I love what it does, I don't like how it works throughout the day.
This one is a MAYBE :o(
Cover Girl LashBlast Waterproof Mascara
This is my FAVORITE all time mascara. My go to everyday, dramatic, fantastic, mascara. I love it!!! It gives your lashes volume with a BOLD look. I heart that bold look. It makes my eyes look sexy and dramatic. The big brush touches each and every lash delivering a bold dramatic effect. It is wear proof which I love because it lasts all day and it keeps the dramatic look. It is waterproof. This is the one mascara that I know will ALWAYS meet my expectations.
Will ALWAYS buy!!! ;o)
**All my mascaras are waterproof. My eyes tend to water therefore I prefer the waterproof formulas.**
*This is my opinion. No company has contacted me or paid me to give my opinion. Just wanted to share my insight on certain products so that it can help other.*
