The Battle of the Mascara's no. 2!!! eep!


So it is that time again. Battle of the mascara's! I have seriously not done one of these since September 2012 and when I realized I had quite a little collection going on and I hadn't done this post in a while, then I though I may finally do it!

I literally hoard my mascara's just for Battle of the mascara's! eep!


Revlon Photoready 3D Volume Mascara in 01 Blackest Black

This honestly is a really good mascara. It coated my lashes quite well and it isn't typically a wand I would choose anyways. This was gifted to me in 2012 for Christmas.
I only had one issue, which is an issue with a lot of these mascara's.
I didn't have the waterproof one. I must say this Mascara was the worst for getting in my eyes! It stung so badly! This was the worst for stinging.


This mascara is really similar to the designer brands mascara I had last time I did Battle of the Mascara's. Very similar in person, It didn't show well in the photo.


MaXFactor Masterpiece Max Mascara

I love this mascara. I got a lot of volume and lift from this mascara.
Not much to say apart from I LOVE IT!


Maybelline Define-A-Lash Volume Mascara

This was a shocking mascara as well to be honest. It did nothing but clump all of my lashes together. And leaving very big balls of mascara on my lashes.


The wand was really similar to my Rimmel one.
These are both very shocking masara's...
Like very shocking...


Paintbox Curling and Volume Mascara

Okay this was horrible.
I cannot stand this mascara!
I honestly got nothing from it. Maybe a little curling but that is it.
I have no clue what went wrong with this. It clumps, it is hard to build up, coverage is minimal etc.
HORRIBLE!

The wand is very much the same as the NP Set Glamorista Mascara.
I hated them both............ awkward!


Essence Get Big Lashes
This is one of the best mascara's I have ever owned.
It's cheap, it's great. I love it.


It is very similar to my Maybelline The Colossal mascara, which I also really adore.
I did a review on the Essence Get Big Lashes Mascara which is viewable here:

So that is it for my Battle of the Mascara's again!
Hope this helps you in picking your next Mascara!

The Battle of the Mascara's x

All of the mascaras!

Over the past few months I seemed to have accumulated a fair few Mascara's, some are really good and some are just downright horrible. So today I thought that I would share all of the best of the best, and the worst of the worst with you. Then the next time you go shopping you know what is something you should try, and some of the things you should steer clear of. and I mean literally steer clear of.
So lets work from left to right! :) x


The first one off the bat, is the Designer Brands Beyond Amplifying Mascara!
This is seriously one of the best mascara's I have used in my life.
The comb brush reached all of the lashes, and is so easy to get to the base of the lash!
It gives length and volume. and all lashes look even.
This one is a sample, which I had to use for this as it seems I have lost the good one that I have bought off the net. As far as I'm aware, this mascara is only available online. So Google search "Designer Brands Cosmetics" and their webpage should pop up! The other thing I adore about this, is the price. It is so cheap! Oh and before I forget to mention, you know how when you take mascara off and you get the panda eye look? Well.. THIS DOESN'T DO THAT! how awesome? when you take it off, it just comes off in little black tube. As I said, my favorite mascara!


This is one of the utmost worst mascara's I have every used in my life!
I know you will probably read this and think that I'm joking, but I'm really not!
This was one of my impulse buys. I wanted a mascara that didn't have the normal matte exterior. So yes, I bought it because it was shiny! Major regret!
I found that the design of the brush, did yes give me curve, but it clumped all of my lashes and I evened up with 4 very thick eyelashes! I was not happy, but oh well, my ex paid for it, so it's no major loss to me! haha.


This is surprising a really good mascara!
I got so much volume in my lashes, and they didn't clump together! I got it for roughly $10 bucks when it was on sale, so I was extremely happy. It is now an everyday item in my make-up bag :)
I love the fact that the tube is yellow with purple writing.
And I was really surprised at the way the wand worked on my lashes and I tend to opt more for comb wands. :)


SO I received this mascara as part of my TAFE kit. I'm not a big of the wand as I can't seem to get nice thick lashes without clumping. Unlike my friend Rhychelle who loves it, but that's only because She has LOTS of lashes, so it doesn't matter if it clumps a bit, because in the end she still has trillions of lashes! So I suppose this mascara in particular varies from person to person. I although do like that the bristles on the comb wand are shorter on one side and longer on the other. The big side for the top lashes and short side for the bottom lashes. It's an average mascara, not bad, but not perfect either.


I picked this mascara up from the throw out for roughly $3 a couple weeks ago. I'm not a huge fan as it isn't a comb wand. I like comb wands better as you have a little more control, especially when you're heavy handed like I am. I do although adore the curve of the wand, It makes it easier to get the lashes on the inner corner of the eye! Once again, it's another average mascara.


This mascara is a tester thing for the Model Co. Mascara.
I honestly wasn't satisfied with the product. Like I wasn't disappointed, but I wasn't happy either.
I put this mascara in the draw for when I have a day when I can't find any of my other mascaras!

So that is the end of my Battle of the Mascara's! Hopefully this helps you out!
