This mascara….is good. I was worried I would like it. Me loving another $30 mascara is bad news….I love some other expensive mascaras and I’ve been trying to stay away. This one has me in its pretty little grip now.
First off the packaging is amazing. I love the sleek black tube and it’s really HEAVY. This is the heaviest mascara I’ve ever had. If I swung this at someone I think it would feel like a Louisville Slugger. Ok you get it right? It is HEAVY.
This really gives me the volume I crave and along with the deep black shade (it’s SUPER BLACK) I look like I have really thick lashes. I also like a strong formula that can whip my sometimes unruly lashes (see left pic of my beady eye) into shape quickly. After one coat (pic on the right above) my lashes are spread out evenly and under control. I usually go for two coats and that looks even better. My lashes aren’t super stiff after using one or two coats either which I appreciate. I hate walking around with super stiff spidery hard lashes.
The brush is really good. Along with a good formula that makes a mascara for me. This brush separates and packs on the mascara perfectly over each lash. Overall I am in love with this stuff even though I didn’t want to be. I would definitely repurchase.

Why didn’t you use the same eye???? Most people have one eye/lash/brow better than the other. The difference is very dramatic. It’s tempting at $30 but I can’t justify such purchase. I’ve become content with drug store mascaras now.
Because it takes me forever to take pictures of my eye(s) and I can do a million pictures at once one eye after the other. I don’t know if you have a blog or take pictures of yourself frequently but personally its my least favorite thing to do. I don’t have a big difference between my lashes on either eye at all they both look the same-I know each stubby/unruly lash personally.
I didn’t know you were taking the pics yourself. I thought you had a person taking them for you. I know how annoying it is to take self potraits and you have to take many to get at least one good shot. I totally understand, my apologies.
