I would have to say this was probably one of my least favourite products of 2017. I watched rave reviews and thought this would be my go-to affordable mascara but alas it's just another overhyped product.
My sister picked this up for me for AUD$6-7. It came completely sealed in plastic so you know it hasn't been tampered with. It's not the prettiest packaging, it reminds me of children's makeup - tacky and cheap but if it performs fantastic then I could care less.
Unfortunately this was a dud for me. I was rather disheartened when I saw the conical wand; it was saturated with product. I could easily wipe off the excess but there was still product inbetween which I felt affected how it applies. Despite being quite a wet formula I found that additional coats just created clumpy lashes and it gave me that dreaded "did-not-take-my-2-days-old-mascara-off" lash look.
It definitely added thickness to my lashes but I wouldn't call that dramatic. I didn't notice too much added length either. In terms of longevity the mascara held up well and I didnt notice any flaking or smudging. But this is not enough for me to repurchase or recommend to others.
On my search for an amazing drugstore mascara I decided to pick this up. The price is what enticed me, as well as the cute packaging. I really like the green design on the black. The brush looked like the type of brush that I like as well.
I am quite picky with mascara. I like my mascara to separate my lashes, I am not a fan of my lashes looking clumpy. I thought that the brush looked as though it would do a good job at separating my lashes. Unfortunately I was wrong.
This is scentless and very, very black - which I like. It also doesn't irritate my sensitive eyes which is awesome. However, I really dislike this mascara.
Firstly it is a super thick formula. It almost feels like tar being coated on my lashes :( Also this is a really wet formula - so you have to be careful when applying it and you must let it dry before doing anything in case you blink and it smears everywhere.
This does tend to flake just a tiny little bit when I wear it - though this isn't as bad as some other mascaras. It isn't the easiest thing to remove, either.
Overall I would skip this. It makes my lashes look like a few giant clumps - which is something I don't like. I won't be repurchasing this.
