It was an awesome deal! I basically got the mascara for free!! Now, I have very thin lashes that are naturally straight, but aren't stubborn (see below). I love mascaras that are semi-wet. If the mascara is too wet, my lashes will fall down, if its too dry, they will not get a lot of volume.
On to the review! I first noticed that the mascara has a nice brush and thought, "this'll be good!" But then I reminded myself that sometimes, the brush can be decieving and it's the formula that truly matters.
The formula is literally nothing. It felt like I was painting my lashes rather than adding volume or length. I also noticed that if I tried adding another layer, my lashes started to fall down! That ladies, is not a good thing. I couldn't leave the house looking like I had no mascara on, so I decided to use my Cover Girl clump crusher mascara to layer over the top and it worked much better. One last note about it, the color isn't even black, it definitely is more on the charcoal side.
So far, I'm not going to repurchase this when I use it up (if I use it up), but it was an extremely cheap purchase and I can't say that I'm disappointed. Definitely pick up the eyeshadow palette, but pass along the mascara!
I hope this review was helpful! ;-)

ReplyDeleteThank you Ms. Sandy!!! I want our blog to be helpful as much as possible!! :-)
DeleteI'm going to buy your Covergirl clump crusher next time I need mascara. I want more volume on my lashes. The palette is very pretty. I thought the megaprotein looked like a great mascara but was sad to hear it wasn't a hit. Thanks for your input Marissa. This kind of information is helpful.
