L'Oreal Paradise Mascara

I watched a review online and this was compared to the better than sex mascara so I thought I would give it a go. Unfortunately I was to be disappointed, it did flake and fall under my eyes and also smudged. I did like brush, it was a good shape and would be great with a different formula. This was my personal experience and may be different for others.

Lol this is what the Better Than Sex mascara does to me so maybe they are comparable.

Doesn’t live up to the hype

I bought this after watching many YouTube influencers rave about it. So disappointed. It is a really wet formula that does nothing to hold my curl. So much product comes out on the wand that you need to wipe it off which feels like a waste. It is easily removable but not worth the hassle of removing excess product.

Tips: Wipe mascara wand on hand, not a tissue to prevent tissue fibres from attaching to wand. Can get more product off hand for second coat.

Love EVERYTHING!

From the rose gold packaging, to the dotty writing, that reminds me of a glam 30s club in Havana, I knew I wanted to fall in love with this mascara.

And fall I did. Hard.

The wand catches my whole lash line, and is easy to control, using head on to get those tricky corner lashes.

The mascara itself is quite liquid. I smudged it within seconds upon the first application, but take two, I gave it 10-15 seconds of consciously being careful about moving my lid, and it dried well.

My lashes look longer and fuller. I found 1 coat plenty for an eyeopening effect. I tried 2 coats, and whilst the second coat applied well, it was a little too dramatic for me.

By the end of the day my lashes hadn't hardened, and there was no flaking at all. It easily removed using my everyday cleanser.

Wonderful product, thank you Beauty Review!

so happy!

i asked for this and BR delivered in the form of putting it in the vault a few moments after. so now i'm convinced i have mind powers naturally, but man i am glad i do because this mascara is AWESOME!

i've seen people compare this to 'cult classic' Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara, and that was one of the main reasons i wanted it. i love the TF mascara, or rather, loved, and i was keen to see how this compared. honestly... this is far superior.

the brush is quite similar to the BTS mascara, in the fact that it is like an hour glass figure, bigger on the ends and thin in the middle. the formulas are very different, this one isn't as wet as BTS (by a lot!) so it applies way easier, smudges less when applying and doesn't cake or weigh down the lash with how wet it is. it makes the lashes longer, blacker and generally more mascara-ed, and i was pleased to see it did add oomphf to my lashes.

i had this on for more than 6 hours, through tears and god knows what else. and this survived. it didn't smudge under my eyes, it didn't flake. to be honest i forgot it was on when i was crying and i wiped some away, but the majority was still there, but don't take that as a "it survives breakdowns!" gospel. it just survived mine.

honestly this mascara is just gorgeous. the packaging, the wand, the formula, the fact it stays on my face... i should stop doubting 'drug store' products, because half the time they're much better than the crud i spend hundreds on!

Too dry unfortunately

My issue with this product is the formulation is not wet enough. The results are pretty good but I wasn't as amazed as I hoped I would be. To start with you get good results of volume and some length but it clumps and goes flakey faster than lots of other mascaras I prefer wet formulations there are a few from the lash paradise line I've not tried many of them and I don't really intend to as I like my mascara wetter and to have a better shelf life. This one is dryer than the volumous line. This one got lots of hype too so I had high hopes. I've seen a coconut smelling version in a square tube

Actually surprised.

I really didn’t think I was going to like this. I have one mascara that I live by and I gave this a go and it actually out performed my other one in some ways. The brush itself is excellent, very full. It’s really black which I love. I put it on and love the volume and lengthening effect I got. 3 people asked if my lashes were real the first day I tried this. No smudging on long shifts either. I don’t like the packaging at all. I feel like it was pointless and wasteful having it in a box, then inside another box. That is something that should be addressed for sure. And the coloring on the tube is not great. I feel like it looks cheap and plain. For the quality that it is, should definitely revisit the presentation. I would have never picked this up if not for this trial but now I’ll repurchase and keep in my kit as well.

My everyday mascara!

I was lucky to be able to try out L'Oreal Paris Paradise Mascara. I love applying mascara on my lashes because I have short lashes and I want to make it longer a bit and make it standout a bit. I love the formula of this mascara because with just one layer it already looks stunning! My lashes curls lasts a day without going down which I love.

L'Oreal Paris Paradise Mascara dries faster than other mascara so it doesn't smudge to my lids when I apply it. The only thing I noticed is there's a bit of clumping when you apply 2 layers of it but that's fine with me because one layer is already enough to lengthen and volumise my lashes.

Lash Paradise

I found this mascara to be a good performer. It made my lashes thick and long. You have to be a bit careful if you do too many coats, as can start to get a little clumpy. I think that about 2 coats works really well and was very satisfied with how it looked with the 2 coats.

Tips: I think that this is a mascara that will need replacing regularly, maybe slightly more often than some due to the fact the formula is quite thick to start with, therefore would likely become clumpy quicker than some thinner formulas.

Dive straight in

Let's dive straight in to it. . I find the packaging itself to be Abit plastic looking - but we all know it's not about what's on the outside it's the inside that matters! . So the brush is quite thick, tapers in a little on the end but nothing dramatic. I found it to be no use really because I still got mascara on my eyelids when trying to get the corners. . I ended up doing 2-3 coats to really get a noticable change (not alot of product sticks to the brush) I had to keep wiggling it between my lashes and really rolling it in. . It does come out clumpy and the more layers the more uneven it starts to get, doesn't curl at all so it kinda reminds me of snuffa luffa giss (that elephant thing off sesame Street haha) his eyelashes long and straight. . Overall: 1- comes out clumpy 2- nice and dark 3- leaves lashes long and straight 4- doesn't curl them 5- doesn't separate lashes 6- thick brush (may get some on eyelids) 7- doesn't smudge

All in all wouldn't get it again but it's ok :)

Good but not great

When first applying this mascara I noticed an immediate change in the length of my lashes, they were noticeably longer, great, it's already doing what it said it would do, however I did notice the formula was a little bit thick which resulted in some minor clumping. I tried the mascara again with just one coat and success, no clumping, but another problem appeared, my lashes were not as defined as I usually like, they looked great for an all natural look however I like my lashes to be a bit darker, so I percivared with the clumps (when I say 'clumps' they were not horrendous, probably only noticiable if you were directly face to face with me, but I could see them every time I saw my own reflection). A few minutes after application I touched by lashes, they felt hard and stiff however as time went on wearing the mascara this eventually dissipated. Over all I think this mascara 100% does what it says it will do, my lashes were definitely longer, I just wish the formula was a little bit smoother. I originally thought this would be a special occasion only mascara, however as it tends to suit a more natural look this may become my everyday office mascara.

Tips: Try to keep application to only one coat as I found a double coat resulted in minor clumps and a little bit of stiffness.
