I rarely get excited over new mascaras- I just find that most work the same for me aside from my favorite mascara. But, after seeing so many beauty bloggers & vloggers snapchat their mailing of the Marc Jacobs Beauty Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara ($26), I was immediately intrigued. Did you SEE that mailer? The screen that played a video when you opened it…amazing. So, on a recent trip to Sephora I noticed this mascara was a 100 point perk sample, so, of course I had to give it a try. And I’m glad I did!
This mascara promises 300% more volume in one stroke and 1800% volume in three strokes. I can’t say that it does that, but the amount of volume is amazing. But, the main reason I love it is because of how black it is. The super black pigment gives your lashes so much more drama. I thought the other mascaras I have used were black, but Velvet Noir is really really black. It can get a bit clumpy, so I wouldn’t layer too much, and you’d probably have to replace the tube within 3 months as it would definitely dry out quickly as it’s not a super wet formula.
This was the first product I’ve tried from Marc Jacobs Beauty and I’m very impressed, and now, dying to try more! Share in the comments- what is your fave mascara?
