A Duo of Disappointing Mascaras

 

 

Mascara is like my ultimate make up piece. I reckon if I were only allowed to wear one piece of make up it would be mascara, concealer would be a very strong contender though!. I'm quite lucky in the sense that my eye lashes are quite long but a mascara just instantly transforms the way your eyes look. Well that's my opinion anyway...

Now I don't know whether the reason I haven't liked these mascara's is that I'm still sulking that I've ran out of the Benefit They're Real and the Maybelline Rocket but the mascara's I've tried recently just haven't delivered. You can't love everything right.

First up is the L'Oreal Mega Volume Waterproof Miss Manga. I was so excited to buy this as I' heard great things, but I am left so disappointed. I don't like the wand at all. It bends and is what I can only describe as wobbly. I don't know if that's to make application easier but every time I use it I have visions of the wand snapping. Now I won't deny it creates beautiful length to my lashes but it makes them look so thin! I love having thicker looking lashes so it just doesn't work. Maybe if I find a mascara that  adds thickness I could use this. But on it's on it creates an effect I personally don't like.

The second is Scandal Eyes by Rimmel. This was an emergency buy from Asda when I'd totally ran out of mascara, all hell broke loose haha. It's just so clumpy and messy to work with. It's left clumps of mascara on my lashes. The brush is a lot more sturdier then the L'Oreal one but to me it makes my lashes look messy.

I think I may revert back to buying the Maybelline mascaras for now. Has anyone got any mascara recommendations??

I've had such a nice day off roaming London. I'll write more about that soon.
