One product that I will always get from the drugstore is mascara. Most mascara formulations are the same, the only thing different is the brush! I actually can’t remember the last time I bought a high end mascara. So, when I found this baby in my L’Oreal gift bag after their pre-Emmy suite I attended…I was smitten! My go-to mascara is Covergirl’s Lash Blast, but I usually am testing something else, because I can’t get stuck in a beauty rut! So, let’s see if this bargain passed the test!
Thee brush is your standard plastic fiber spoolie-type…but it’s bigger! I find that it helps it to grip my lashes really well, since the bristles are so close together. Since it’s a larger brush, it takes some finagling to get to my inner lashes; you can count lower lashes out, unless you like raccoon eyes! I find the brush far too large to get mascara on my bottom lashes without touching my skin, too. Let’s see it in action!
Yep, I LOVE this mascara. 1 coat is a perfect natural look with just a hint of volume, and 2 coats add a boost of curl and twice the volume. It can get clumpy over time, so be wary. I like to wiggle the brush through my lashes pretty slowly, repeating until I get the perfect look. If some lashes clump up, I use a lash comb or a spoolie brush to tame the clumps without adding any more product. I have to say…I might like this more than Lash Blast! When I’m not trying any new mascara (if that ever happens), I’ll have to repurchase this for sure!
L’Oreal‘s Voluminous Power Volume Collagen Mascara costs $6.95 and can be found at your local drugstores.
