Mascara claims are probably one of the most over exaggerated amongst all makeup products.
Maybe it's because it is nearly impossible to test one in stores.
Or if you do decide to use the disposable brush and fool yourself into believing that no one has "double dipped" a brush in the container; the mascara is dried out or once purchased comes with a completely different applicator.
No matter what the process is, there is a certain amount of risk that goes into buying mascara.
Some of us thrive on the adrenaline rush, others just want a good product.
Let me take the mystery out of these five mascaras.
In no particular order:
Ck One Color Mascara (in 800 Black):
I wasn't totally sold on the brush that is supposed to retract and expand. But the actual mascara itself is lovely. It is the blackest black I've ever used. And the formula gives major volume and length.
Cover Girl Clump Crusher by Lashblast (in Very Black):
Mascara clumps are a nightmare. Especially when you worked so hard to get the perfect eye look.
This really does crush clumps. I don't know if it is the brush or the formula but it absolutely lives up to the hype.
Avon Extra Lasting Mascara (in Y01 Black):
A very nice mascara. The thinner brush makes it easier to coat each lash and get extra length.
It lasts all day and doesn't smudge.
Ulta Voluptuous Volume Mascara (in Jet Black):
It lives up to its title and gives super volume. The thicker brush helps amp up lashes for a fierce look.
Sephora Le Waterproof Extreme Resistance Mascara (in Black):
This mascara is without a doubt waterproof. I know because I tested it.
It didn't run, streak or smudge when I threw water on my face (yeah, I'm that kind of dedicated).
Perfect for swimming.
I just realized all of my mascaras are in some shade of black.
So those are my current favorites. May change in the future.
Some news: I have been working on starting a youtube channel for Ultima Beauty.
I'm hoping to have a video up by the end of the week.
I'll give you more details soon!
