Hey guys! I’ve disappeared for a few days, sorry about that! It’s been pretty crazy so far in 2016, and I’ve just gotten settled at school again. I picked up a ton of new makeup and products over the holidays, so I have lots of reviews coming up soon!
This mascara is a cult favorite that I’ve been wanting to test out for quite a while. I grabbed the sample size at Sephora just to see why everyone seems to love this product so much. I gave it a test drive! Scroll down to see what I thought.
First off, the packaging is totally gorgeous. The pretty metallic pink tube is just adorable! It has some pretty high claims for a mascara. Better than sex? I’m not sure about that haha!
It claims to have a revolutionary “bombshell” brush shape. To be honest, I was not in love with the brush. It makes it very difficult to apply the mascara to your bottom lashes without getting it on your skin. It applies well to the top, though.
The formula is pretty good! It lasted all day with no flaking or smearing, and when I was applying it there were no clumps and it went on very smoothly. It made my lashes extremely thick and defined, which was really nice, but at the same time it didn’t seem to do way too much in the way of lengthening them. I’m wearing it on both eyes in the below picture-sorry for the poor iPhone quality!
The bottom line? I wouldn’t say this mascara is better than sex haha. The brush isn’t my favorite, but the formula is silky and gorgeous! If you’re looking for a mascara to make your lashes thick and sexy, this is for you! 🙂 I will probably not purchase the full size, simply because there are so many other mascaras that I want to try. But I give this mascara 4/5 stars! Find it here.
What do you think? Have you tried this, and do you think it’s better than sex? Any mascaras you’re excited to test? Let me know in the comments! Thanks for stopping by 🙂

I actually just bought this mascara the other day and didn’t like the brush either. It was extremely hard to apply it to the lower lashes and I though the brush gave off way too much product. I was a bit disappointed because I heard everyone raving about this product before. I’m still on the hunt for the perfect mascara, although I do like BADgal lash by Benefit. Great review!

I totally get what you mean about the brush giving too much product! It was just a little too difficult to work with overall. Thanks for stopping by, Ela!

Your eyelashes do look beautiful after applying this mascara although it sounds like the brush is not that easy to use. Thanks for sharing this review!

Sounds like a great mascara, babe. It looks lovely on you and the review definitely proves that it’s great (the name – not so great and a bit awkward in my opinion lol). I love a curled wand but would be willing to give this one a go since you loved it & it’s TF ❤

I’ve heard about this recently! It’s a shame that the brush wasn’t a better shape but your eyes still look really lovely with this mascara 🙂 I tend to not put mascara on my bottom eyelashes, I find that my eye liner makes them dark anyway

Thank you! I don’t usually wear eyeliner, so I like having it on the bottom lashes 🙂

I have to say that I do love this mascara and since I don’t use mascara on my lower lashes I don’t have an issue. I’m glad you at least liked it! 🙂
