I have to say that in the world of beauty products mascara
is probably the one thing that at the minute, I feel as though I can’t live
without. I just think it makes such a difference, particularly to my tired morning
face. and I must say I have tried out A LOT in my time so many that one might
say I’m some sort of Mascara whore.. :L. So I thought I’d introduce you to my top five drugstore/high street
mascara’s because I really don’t see a lot of difference between them and high
end ones, both have their good, their bad and their plain ugly (here’s looking
at you Revlon Doubletwist Volumizing Mascara.) Anyway without further or do here are my
top 5.
Number 5, Maybelline illegal length-I’ll start off by saying
I’m not a massive fan of the lash extension type mascara’s because as much as
they can perhaps look more natural and I find they often don’t add a lot of
curl or volume. Basically they make my lashes look like spiders! However, this
mascara in particular I think looks subtle, curled and with slightly more
volume. That’s why think this is great mascara for the no makeup, makeup look
and especially good for beach days now that it seems summer has arrived in
England. I would say that this mascara definitely does add length, doesn't
smudge, in fact it really doesn't budge at all which means it takes a bit of
time to get off (god only knows what the waterproof version is like) but not
too long to really matter.
Number 4, Rimmel lash
accelerator mascara- Another one of those that promises lash extension but again
like illegal length this also likes up to its claims. The mascara wand reminds
me very much of benefit’s all famous they’re real, with its straight thick wide
and small straight bristles. Maybe this is why it works so well. Either way
this mascara looks really nice layered and it one that you really can build volume
with. The bristles catch every eyelash and my only complaint is that it doesn't
hold its curl as well but that’s if I’m being really picky.
The runner up is Maybelline the Falsies in very black. This
mascara is probably one of my most repurchased mascara’s of all time and at
£7.99 it’s one of the cheaper mascara’s in my top 5. Boots are also having buy
1 get the second half price on selected Maybelline products and you can get the
offer here. This mascara is probably one of the most volumes of my collection
and much like the name suggests it is very black, adds quite a bit of length
but quite not as much as illegal length but that doesn’t bother me too much.
The wand catches lashes really easily and adds a really nice curl. The Falsies
doesn’t really smudge on me and easy to get off. I know this is a favourite of
you tuber Tanya Burr’s, so it must be pretty good!
And the winner iss….L'oreal telescopic mascara in extra
black!! I love this mascara and I know the version that isn't extra black is a
favourite of Viviannadoesmakeup. It makes my lashes look so long and fluttery, so much so that I've even been accused of wearing false eyelashes. This mascara is also
very easy to layer which I love in a mascara because I’m all about adding more
than just one layer without making them look spidery or clumpy. Basically Just
a Blooming good mascara!
Thank you for reading! I hope you might find these mini
reviews useful in picking out a new mascara to try. Do you like any of these
mascara’s too? If you would like a full review please leave a comment, and if
