Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara Review

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 never thought that I would one day replace my dear Rimmel mascara that I have repurchased over and over again for the past 6 years but Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara deserves that top spot now. It curls and separates my lashes, gives them volume and (what appears to me) extended length. What I love the most is the product makes my lashes look full and dramatic with very little effort required.

Even though I’m not a fan of pink the packaging is cute and simple. At first I was a little sceptical at the sheer size of the hour-glass shaped wand as well as just how much product was on it when I pulled it out. I didn’t think I would be able to achieve much, other than a big mess all over my lids but I cannot express just how amazed I am with this product.

When I apply my layers I do get some spots of mascara on my lids but that’s mainly because of how much it extends my lashes that it hits my lids so I can’t really complain about that. I’ve had no negative reactions to the product and no issues with flaking or any smudging throughout the day. In terms of removal it comes off very easily when I use my holy grail eye makeup remover (Neutrogena). I’m not too sure I could say the same if I use a makeup wipe or any other eye makeup remover.

I’ve had so many compliments on my lashes I can’t believe it and I didn’t even need to invest in a lengthening serum! I bought mine from the Too Faced website and sent it to my Shipito address. The price largely depends on the currency exchange going at the time of purchase and mine was approximately NZD$30 which to me is worth every cent because this is the only mascara that has finally ticked all the boxes.

My annoyance would have to lie with the accessibility to the product and that it’s only available overseas so unlike other popular mascara brands you can't just walk into a store and purchase it when you feel/want/need it.

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 is one of the very few non waterproof mascaras that I can wear with my watery eyes (without it sliding all over my face). It has a natural bristled brush which I really do believe results in the most natural fluffy lashes. However this is quite a wet mascara and I really have to scrape quite a bit of product off the brush before going into apply or else my lashes result in a clumpy mess. I’ve used a couple tubes of this and definitely love how it makes my lashes look with a bit of work- it just would be nice if it wasn’t quite so high maintenance to apply.

I purchased a mini version of this and perhaps this is where I went wrong. This mascara wasn't as good as I expected it to be. The brush is rather large so I found it difficult to get into the corners of my eyes. The formula was dry and clumped my eyelashes together while leaving flaky bits under my eyes. It did increase the volume of my lashes but at the expense of looking messy and not the look I was after.

I have been rebuying this mascara over and over again after recieving it in travel size as a gift. The first thing that makes it so amazing is the fact that there is ZERO clumping. I really like the weight of the wand that you hold as it is a little heavy but makes it easy to apply. Theres something about the brush that works with the fluid to make my eye lashes super beautiful, long, and black. I bought a Maybelline mascara in between purcashes of this and the difference was a lot - it was clumpy and messy. If you want a go to mascara that lasts ages and does the trick with no fuss, grab this!

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 literally could not live without this mascara. It is love. It is life. I have fairly long lashes naturally, but they're very fair on the ends. Better than Sex really brings them to life without any major clumping. It's a bit on the pricier side but honestly I think it's so worth it if you're a mascara junkie like I am. Here's to you Too Faced, you make my life worth living.

I received a mini of this in one of my quarterly Mecca Maxima sample boxes. I was very excited to try it out because of all the hype this product has. On the cardboard outer of the mascara it talks about stats around the volume and length that it gives - hence the high expectations. I love the packaging of both sizes of this mascara, the sleek metal barrel with a lovely pink hue also has the name 'Better Than Sex' down the side. The wand is quite large and has an hourglass shape, I don't mind how big it is, although I have gotten myself in the eye like twice now which isn't fun.

The formula itself is consistent and I am a fan. It does take a little bit to dry but I usually do my hair between coats. On a day to day basis I apply one coat, with a second coat on the outer of my lashes. It lasts a long time but I do find some fallout later in the day.

I am now onto my full sized version because I am a fan, but would be open to trying new mascaras. I think this is a good buy - but I'm not sure it lives up to all the hype it has going for it?

Where to start. It lengthens. It volumises. It doesn't flake. I've never had a clump.

This is THE mascara for big, dramatic lashes. You don't need to wear false lashes with this mascara in your toolbox. I find three coats ideal if you're really wanting drama, or just one coat for a little definition. This isn't waterproof, but it isn't easy to get off either. It is a slightly wet formula, but not to the extreme of some Maybelline formulations.

Not sure that I'd believe the 1944% more volume claim on the box, but you certainly get a stunning look.

The brush is cute - its hourglass shaped and makes it really easy to get a nice application. The brush is also weighted, which makes handling the mascara feel really quite something else because it gives you more control.
