Whilst this might not have the same ermergherd awesomeness that the Bourjois 1 seconde mascara has, there's something about this I adore and I'm completely drawn too. The way it flicks out my lashes, gives them volume and an almost butterfly flutteryness, it makes my lashes look really pretty and not fake.
I only ever really show 2 coats of mascara on my reviews as that's how I wear it, I'm also sure that these pictures would look more impressive if I hadn't worn winged black liquid eyeliner :P
It coats onto the lashes like a dream, just gliding on effortlessly covering the lashes. There's little-to-no fallout with this too, so after a days worth of wear, your cheeks should look just as perfect as when you put this on. Now, here's the downside (lets face it, there's always one isn't there!?), it's the price. This is a pretty expensive mascara, coming in at £25.50*, that's quite a tall order! Would I replace it when it runs out? If financially things were like they are now, yes I would. But in reality, with the baby on the way and us losing around £700 a month of income once she arrives, these will be a luxury I'll no longer be able to afford. In fact, I'll be lucky to be able to replace any of my makeup at all.
So, as lovely as this is, if you don't have £25 to spend on a mascara, you might want to invest in something a little more purse friendly, like the Bourjois 1 seconde mascara I reviewed the other day. However, if you do have a disposable income and have a penchant for luxe mascaras I'd highly recommend this, it's been the one I've reached for almost every day for the last couple of months :)

I had a free sample of this at the last St David's event and I love it! I wish I could afford to buy a full-size one. The only other negative I've found is that it can be a bit smudgy, especially in more hayfever-y times! xx
ReplyDeleteThis is on my list to try, though I've heard the L'oreal Carbon black mascara is just as good too!
