Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara Review

I got a deluxe sample of this and I was so excited to try it. The wand is quite big but I find that my lashes really grip onto the wand and take a good amount of product.

My lashes look incredible with this mascara on! It holds a curl so well and makes my lashes look really long and voluminous.

The one downside for me is that it flaked off throughout the day. I wear glasses most of the time but sometimes I wear contacts, so when a flake of mascara gets into my eye when I have contacts in it can be quite irritating.

If it wasn't for the flaking, this would be my favourite mascara!

I'd heard about this mascara from friends and it definitely lives up to the hype. I've been asked many times if my lashes are real. I do have really long lashes and found that sometimes there was some fallout, but I've since switched to the waterproof version (which stays on forever unless you use a good remover!). They definitely make my lashes look fuller and longer.

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?

I used this all the time! I love the volume and thickness this mascara gives me! I used this whenever I want to feel a little bit special or sexy :)

I tried so hard to love this but it just did not happen.

After reading rave review after rave review I thought this was going to become my HG mascara but was sadly disappointed.

Firstly the brush is pretty huge and I don't have the longest lashes so getting this on place other than my lashes was to be expected. What was not to be expected was that throughout the day it melted all over my face. I spent the day looking like a panda. The following day I tried to combat this with more under eye setting powder but I ended with the same result. From doing a bit of research some people believe this happens if you have oily skin but I'm on the dry side so not sure why this happened to me.

I then thought maybe it was because it was summer and maybe I was just getting a bit hot and bothered but it also happened in winter.

In the end I chucked this mascara out as looking like a panda was not the look I was going for.

I grabbed a mini of this from Mecca after hearing so many people rave about it. I'm pleased a grabbed a mini!!

I love the packaging and I think the name is funny! I love the sideways looks I've gotten from people when I've been talking about it!

However I found the formula a little clumpy and too wet. It certainly added volume and a bit of drama but I had to constantly wipe clumps off the brush.

I also found that about 4 hours after wear I would have Panda Eyes. It didn't like staying on my lashes. Even with primer on.

As much as I wanted to love this and for it to become my Holy Grail Mascara.. it's a no from me.

I was recommended this by this sales assistant at Sephora who said that this would really lengthen and curl eyelashes. I'd seen plenty of praise about this online as well so I thought I'd give it a try since my dior mascara was running out. I have worn this three times and all three times it turned out to be a colossal disappointment.

Things I like The shape of the want makes it easy to reach every eyelash, and it really fits the contours of my eye. The mascara does indeed make my lashes look thicker and longer and doesn't clump much.

Things I don't like After applying this my previously curled eyelashes drooped back to their sad straight state. It smudged all around my under eyes after just half a day out. The price is close to a high end mascara, but it really doesn't perform like one.

I don't know about others, maybe if your lashes are naturally curly this might be better for you. But my experience with this has been really disappointing. Perhaps I had been expecting a holy grail mascara but this is just a 'meh, pretty good' one for me.

I have been using this mascara for about two years now and I absolutely love it!

My eyelashes are quite long but they sort of go downwards/outwards so a lot of mascaras you can barely see any pretty effect without a curler but I find with Better Than Sex the brush is able to curl my eyelashes upwards making my eyes really pop!

I also love how this mascara stays on all day but is super easy to remove! Although I prefer to use proper makeup removers this mascara comes off just as easily with water which is awesome.

The only complaint I seem to have with this mascara is it always runs out quite quickly. I can use other mascaras for ages but Better Than Sex seems to run out out after about 3 of daily months for me. Although in saying that I have read you should not keep mascaras for very long so perhaps this is really just good timing.
