After hearing nothing but raving reviews about this mascara i decided i needed to give it a go, i placed an make up order and amazingly they had a free gift with every order that happened to be this mascara, i nabbed it before the offer ended and looked forward to trying it, eventually it arrived, i expected the brush to be rather fancy and to be honest it looks like it got left behind with design, i'm so use to trying fancy mascaras with curves, combs and balls that this through me but i had high hopes.
The good point, this mascara did what i wanted it to do, it was amazing in the sense that it made my already long lashes extra long which gave them a fake lash look that i wanted.
But...and it's a big one (or lots of little ones) It didn't add any curve to my lashes, as they are already quite long they are very heavy and that makes then pretty straight, i tried curling them before hand and the weight of the mascara made them straight again, i tried curling them once i'd applied the mascara and i found due to the sticky, tacky feel that lasts around an hour before it's actually dry the lashes just stuck to the curler and then it pulled a few out, it also collected every tiny piece of dust that i came across and dried so hard by the end of the night i counted 6 lashes removed during my night time cleaning routine (gentle eye wash and wipes)
Was it the best mascara i've ever used....No, i've used better and cheaper but it was good for a night out if i wanted extra length or a thicker lash, personally i'd recommend a lashes undercoat and a heated lash curler for the same results without the problems.
Pros:
It added length
It added Volume
It was free (with an order)
Cons:
It acted like glue to dust
It became hard and heavy
It's expensive when not free
5/10
