The first mascara up to bat is They're Real by Benefit, from the high end bunch. I had several people recommend this and rave about how much they loved it, so I had to give it a shot.
Sephora is selling it in a bundle with a regular and travel size for $23. Regular size tube sold separately for $19.
I like the sleek design of the tube.
The wand. I do like this wand, specifically because it has bristles go all the way around the end making it very easy to get the baby lashes in the inner corner. It's sturdy and I like it! It separates my lashes nicely.
Front view:
I like when my lashes look pretty natural and separated (hence the name "They're Real") and don't look clumpy or like I have 50 coats of mascara on.
Side view:
Light and fluttery, yet slightly volumized and separated. That's what I'm going for. It's not too much to ask!
Rated on a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being terrible and 5 being great.
Formula - 5
Clumping - 5
Defining - 4
Lengthening - 4
Volumizing - 3
Brush/wand - 5
Average total on the Emma evaluation scale - 4.3
I really, really liked this mascara. It's gonna be hard to beat!!
Okay, I am dying to know. How do you take such awesome pictures of your eye makeup???
ReplyDeleteI took both these pics with my Nikon DSLR camera on the close up setting.
DeleteThe second picture was just a lucky shot :)
Hmmm, I'm going to have to practice this. You're making me obsessed with eyeshadows and I just bought a new palette so I need to slow my roll. Haha.
DeleteI've been wanting to try this one out for quite some time! The reviews are fantastic and it worked well with your eyelashes. So tempted right now!
ReplyDeleteThis really was a great mascara, and even though I have like 10 more tubes to try, I can definitely see myself buying this one again. I polled my Facebook for brands to try and this was mentioned at least 3 times!
