I Love This Brush

Excited to try a new mascara as I feel my lashes were started to look sparse and lost. Let's start with the metallic pink packaging. I do like this as it gave it more credibility and looked sophisticated. Once I got the mascara out I knew it was going to make me happy as I love this style of brush. Very easy to apply a rich creamy texture without being overly saturated on the wand. I applied both sides of lashes as you should and was pleased with the coverage. Not too thick, clumpy or looking like spider legs. I must admit day one I tried two coats trying to see how big I could go. A bit clumpy on the ends but I sorted that out. The next day I did one coat and this was better, fast and gave great results. The next test was day time napping. I do like a power nap sometimes and waking up with mascara all down my face is always a problem. Hooray this mascara does not budge or leave crumbly bits all over your cheeks. Final test was ease of removal. I have an all in one cleanser and eye makeup remover for light makeup worn most days. I was really pleased with the simplicity of removal. Always a test is excess mascara under eyes the next morning. Pleased to say eyes were clean and just had their normal bleary lack of sleep look going on. So was I happy overall with my new luscious lashes? Yes and they definitely have given my natural look a boost and looks like I have my young lashes back again.

Tips: Did you know mascara brushes are all patented so you can't copy another brush? So if you find a brush you love and it applies how you want you need to rejoice! I tried one coat vs. two coats. You will need to be careful with two coats as it will clump. A clean old wand will brush out the excess clumps for you. Always cover both sides of your lashes. Most people only cover the underside but once you look down you have a set of uncoated lashes. Colour top side down and then curl up underside.

A lovely little mascara

To start, the packaging is beautiful. I like looking at it next to my other makeup.

It smells very nice too, not like other mascaras that have a more chemical smell.

Application: the brush is nice and thick and soft. It appeared to be slightly concave in the center. The product was smooth and easy to apply. It made my lashes look thicker and a bit longer. It also felt like my lashes were being curled up as well. I applied the product on both lashes and neither set went clumpy or solid. It also dried quickly so didn't need to worry about mascara blink marks.

Wearing: it feels nice and light to wear but also sturdy - kind of like wearing hairspray. These lashes aren't moving anywhere. After a few hours I noticed the product had rubbed under my eye but it was easy to remove. Later in the evening before removal I noticed black marks above my eyelid therefore the product does shift during the day.

Removal: very pleased with the removal. I used Lancome eye makeup remover and it easily wiped away. There was no residue left and in the morning my eyes were clear with no leftover mascara rubbing around.

Overall: I would buy this again. It isn't as fancy as some mascaras I've used but if you need a good everyday mascara that'll look pretty sitting on your desk then this is the product to get.

Just ok

First impressions - I love the rose gold gold case, very cute packaging! I found the brush to be quite thick (I prefer curved mascara brushes myself) and as a result it was hard to get super close to the lash line. The brush collects a fair bit of product which I found I had to wipe against the top of the container before using otherwise there was too much. The mascara is a thick consistency so I had to be careful not too apply too much otherwise the lashes clump together. I like to layer mascara for a more dramatic look but I think layering too much of this product would leave me with spider lashes! But the end result was fine - my lashes look perfectly nice. I did notice a little bit of smudging underneath my eyes throughout the day, so it is not totally smudge proof.

All in all I’ll continue to use this product until it runs out but I wouldn’t be in a rush to purchase it again.

Tips: Wipe off excess product on a tissue on against the container before using

Worth giving a second go

I knew I didn’t like the first edition of this mascara when it came out. Lauded as the discount version of TF BTS but I didn’t like that mascara, or L’Oréal’s. Both flaked and smudged on me terribly (for reference my holy grail mascara is Loreal feline voluminous in the green tube). This however is absolutely an improvement and I would switch to as I believe my HG has been discontinued. It promises volume, length, and no clumping, flaking or smudging. It delivered...just not as much as my favourite. I will definitely be using up the rest of the tube though and would recommend to anyone to give it a second go.

Tips: Warm it up between your legs or in your bra for an even smoother application.

A little crumbly

I really wanted to love this as it made my lashes look fully and long. Exactly what I hope for in a mascara!

This mascara is a mouse texture and does not start out annoyingly wet like some. I was surprised that this is fragranced so be aware of that if that’s something that concerns you.

The wand reminds me of Too faced Better than sex and since I have eyes on the smaller side I did have to be a bit more carefully then I normally would be. With only a few coats I got the desired looked I hoped for.

Sadly this did not last well for me and throughout the day I had to carefully sweep crumbles away. Over the following days I applied less and still had the same problem.

As a teacher who does not have time to fuss with my make up throughout the day this is a miss for me. I need something that stays out for 12 hours. I will keep using this for shorter make up days as I really did like the way it made my lashes look.

Tips: Buy this instead of Better than sex - similar but half the price!

Great mascara!

I really like this mascara, it’s one of the better ones I’ve tried. My eyelashes are naturally short and straight so I was a bit worried if this would do anything at all. Surprisingly it made them curl slightly which is not easy without a curler! There was also a bit of clumping and the formulae was super thick so you have to be careful not to apply too much. The packaging was very nice, it has a slight sheen to it which is very pretty.

Tips: Maybe wipe away a bit of the formula from the wand, otherwise it’ll clump and build up too much.

Rose gold beauty

What can I say about the packaging... Well its right on trend at the moment as rose gold is popping up everywhere. Sleek and simple, just what I like in a mascara. The wand is super bushy making it really easy to coat the lashes and give the volume needed. Only down point I found was no taper to the wand made it harder to give more precise product to the outer and inner corners. The product has a subtle scent and its quite pleasant. It goes on nice and smoothly without any clumping. I did notice it dries rather quickly too which is a bonus but if you want to do extra coats like I do for fuller and longer lashes, don't muck around too long.

Overall I found this a really simple and basic mascara that does deliver in its promises and I like the look it gave my lashes. I'll definitely continue to use this product, but I didn't find anything unique about it to make me buy it over other similar mascaras.

Tips: If doing multiple coats, don't muck around this product dries quickly on the lashes.

Subtle Look

First of all, I would just like to address a few comments I've seen online (elsewhere, not here!) comparing this to the Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara, some comments even saying it is a "copycat". The only similarity is the colour of the component. The wand and formula are both very different. Lash Paradise actually has quite a dry formula, which I know a lot of people actually prefer. I personally find it easier and less messy to work with a dryer formula. I didn't find it particularly volumizing or lengthening to be honest. I found it to be quite a light, subtle effect. I think it does a good job of separating the lashes and it isn't clumpy. I did experience the tiiiniest bit of flaking under my eyes, but not enough to deter me from using it again. I will continue to use and and I think I might experiment with using it in conjunction with my other mascaras to see if I can get more volume or length going, but still enjoy the lash separation I get from Lash Paradise. Removal was fairly easy. Didn't have to do anything extra or special to remove it all.

Tips: Try using it with other mascaras for a more well-rounded lash effect.

In case of smudging during application, wait for it to dry completely before wiping it off with a q-tip or firm eyeshadow brush.

Best suited for natural or day looks rather than full glam/evening makeup.

Great all round mascara

It has been a while since I used a mascara with a traditional wand (rather than a comb). The packaging is lovely and sleek and the wand is very fat and coats every lash. This reminds me of the Lancome 'Monsieur Big' Mascara in the wand and the results - which is great given the price point for this is much more accessible. This lasts well and doesn't smudge under the eyes at the end of the day. I find this build-able and a great all-rounder to thicken, lengthen and define lashes.

lashes pop!

I haven’t had a new mascara for MONTHS and always by the same tried and true, so I was excited to try this. First impression it provided a good coat, was a little clumpy but after a few strokes this seemed to even back out. Having used it daily for a week now I have found it goes on smoothly, decent coat on lashes and no clumping. It curls lashes nicely with good spread and definition.

Tips: Give it a few coats on the first use to help get the formula spreading over the brush evenly.
