A mascara is definitely a makeup product that I can't live without, so I really love testing out new mascaras... as you can probably tell by the increasing number of mascara reviews going up on the blog. Anyhow, I thought it was about time for me to pick up this one by Maybelline. I have seen so many blog posts featuring this mascara and read so many good things about it, I knew it was definitely one that I wanted to get my hands on.
The Lash Sensational mascara has gorgeous packaging and that definitely sold it to me. I love the metallic pink packaging, it's definitely a prettier colour and different from other mascaras out there! The brush that this mascara has is also great. It's a curved brush with little bristles great at getting all the lashes, however I have found that due to the formula of the mascara being quite wet, can get quite clumpy in the brush I have found. Also due to the formula being a bit wetter I find when I apply it, I have to be careful of like blinking straight away or moving my eyes for a couple of minutes until it dries as it can leave little mascara dots on my eyes, and they are quite hard to budge.
Other than the formula being a little wet, I find this mascara so easy to use to create lashes that i'm happy with and love. The mascara is really black and makes eyelashes pop straight away, a bit similar to the Roller Lash by Benefit. It also is great at making them look fuller and curled without any curlers.. I find anyway. However, you do have to be careful with making sure lashes don't clump together when applying, I think this will not be a problem once the mascara is a little bit drier. Another great thing about this mascara is that I find that it lasts ages on while still holding the shape (if that makes sense) and I don't find it to be flakey.
This mascara is definitely one that I would recommend to anyone. It doesn't hurt the bank account as much as one from Benefit would, costing £7.99 from both Boots and Superdrug. But can is also be found on Fragrance Direct for only £4.75 and is definitely worth buying in my eyes.
Let me know what your favourite mascara is, so that I have an idea for what I should purchase next time..
see you soon, han xo

Definitely would recommend this mascara 100% x
DeleteI've been loving Mac Haute and Naughty for normal mascara and L'oreal voluminous for the waterproof and they're great although I don't think I'll repurchase the Mac one :)

Thanks for letting me know, definitely going to look at the L'Oreal one in the future. Think the MAC one would be out of my budget for a mascara x
DeleteGreat review! I bought this recently and couldn't decide whether I liked it or not at first. Now I've decided I really like it although I definitely have trouble with mascara dots above my eyes especially because my eyelashes are pretty long and curl naturally so the tips are often against my skin when I have mascara on if that makes sense haha.

Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets little dots, yeah I get what you mean! That happens with me too x
DeleteI really need to try this out as I've heard it's a great dupe for the new Benefit mascara x
ReplyDeleteBlushhx
Definitely worth trying I think! x
DeleteI really love this mascara. Although I love Benefit, I could never justify spending so much on a mascara. It's nice to find a cheaper dupe :)
ReplyDeleteJordan Alice
Yeah I'm definitely with you on that! I think drugstore mascaras are definitely just as good as high ends can be x
DeleteI've heard great things about this mascara - I will have to try it out x

DeleteOooh I love the look of the results, they look very similar to the new Benefit Roller Lash mascara - it is definitely the next mascara I'll be purchasing once I've used up my current ones.

Thank you x
DeleteI really like this mascara too, but as you say, I do have to be careful not to apply too much as then my lashes do start to clump together xx
ReplyDeleteIoanna | Hearting.co.uk
Yeah so annoying definitely due to it being a bit too wet! Would be perfect mascara if it was a bit drier xx
DeleteI really love this too, and totally agree with it being a little wet! I get it everywhere haha xx

DeleteI have been eyeing mascara since it came out and packaging is one of the reasons but I usually find that brushes like this usually don't work for me.

Awh I hope that if you do try this one out the brush works out for you x
DeleteWhen I first tried this I thought the formular was way too wet so I left it about a week and now I love it!! Gret review x

DeleteHi! I had my doubts about this mascara because of what you mention the formula is quiet wet, but the results are very pretty!! I am currently loving L’oreal 24 h collagen, gives nice volume : )
