I haven't done a look into my make-up bag blog for a little while and this time I'm talking Mascara- my favourite!
Mascara is one of those items of make-up that can just make such a difference, and you will often notice if you always see a friend with mascara on and then suddenly they take it off! Their eyes often look much wider when enhanced by the black mascara.
I find that once you find the right mascara, you won't go back! I have tried and tested a lot of them and you will probably be pleased to hear.. That for once, I like a fairly cheap product and I think it's the best I've used so far.
L'Oréal Double Extrnsion Fortifying Extending Mascara- £9.55 - £11.29
This is my all-time favourite. It's good value for money and lasts well without going thick and sludgy. I get this mascara in the carbon black colour and I am often asked about my lashes. It is double ended, you have the white base coat and then you apply the mascara on top:
'STEP 1: Ultra-lengthening and fortifying base coat
-A conditioning white base coat enriched with Ceramide R and naturally-derived fibres that act like extensions to visibly lengthen the appearance of your lashes
STEP 2: Intense colour and coverage without clumping.
-The brush distributes intense colour from root to tip, making your lashes look longer without leaving clumps'
-Taken from superdrug's website!
This product has never clogged up my lashes and gives such a long lasted effect. They also do a waterproof version, which is good to events but harder to remove.
The product has two downfall's that I have found- One, because it has two ends the middle part of the mascara (I'll post a picture below) often cracks meaning that you can't seal the mascara quite as well, and Two, always buy the one that comes in a cardboard display/packaging because some places, like superdrug, cover them in plastic and it is a bloody nightmare to get into!
I think the reason the packaging is not so great is because it's a fairly cheap product and it doesn't bother me enough to stop buying it because the product itself is very good!
Let me know about your mascara's because I love to try new ones, but so far this is my only 9/10 mascara!
Love Life,
