Mascara Obsession and Reviews

I feel like everyone has their specific makeup product they can't leave home without. Eyeliner, lipstick, foundation. For me it's always been mascara, I could go completely naked on the face and just throw on mascara and still feel complete. I feel like most people notice your eyes first and mascara is something that compliments them so well. I have very long lashes which are a lot more defined when I apply mascara.

I'm one for trying lots of new mascaras, anytime I go to a store that sells makeup I pick up a new one. Over the past few months I've bought four new mascaras that I've actually kept in my makeup bag, each for a different reason. I also realize that some of these look kind of dirty but I had a little makeup spill in my old makeup bag so that's why some of them have powder and stuff all over them.

The first mascara I want to talk about its Covergirl's Lash Perfection(in very black). 

I've never tried Covergirl mascaras before, I'm big on Maybelline which you'll soon find out, but this was something my mom picked up for me so I figured I wouldn't waste it. The look of it on wasn't too bad, it did clump a bit but nothing too major like other mascaras have. It lasted throughout the day and I didn't have a problem. It was only until I tried taking it off that I hit a problem. I never buy waterproof mascara, I hate having the struggle of taking it off, and this wasn't waterproof. But no matter how much makeup remover I used it wouldn't come off. It took me forever to get off this mascara. Some people may like that, but if you're like me and like to take off makeup quick and easy then you'll know this was a problem. I haven't really used this since the first time I tried it, but I kept it in my makeup bag to talk about.

The next two mascaras are both by Maybelline. One is the Rocket Volume(in blackest black), the other is The Falsies Volume Express(in blackest black).

I've always loved Maybelline mascara, it's what I started with. The Rocket was something I used when I first really got into makeup and it's one of my favorites even today. It's an amazing formula, very smooth putting on, it doesn't clump and your eyelashes separate easily. It does give lots of volume and length which is the reason I loved it so much. As for The Falsies, my sister recommended this to me because it's been her go to mascara for as long as she can remember. I decided to give it a try and didn't find myself liking it too much. As much as it did give volume and length, my lashes didn't separate and there were lots of clumps. I found myself spending ten minutes in the morning just trying to get my eyelashes to separate.

L'Oreal's Lash Out Butterfly(in blackest black) is my most recent mascara purchase.

It is more on the expensive side of mascaras but it was so worth it. I'd heard lots of people raving about this particular mascara, so I figured I'd try it out myself. I wasn't sure what to expect though, as most just said it was "great" or "a good mascara". The first thing I noticed was that is separated my eyelashes very well, which is the most important thing for me when it comes to a mascara. It didn't take too long to make my lashes look near perfect. You could use this to make your lashes longer but I found that this was good for wanted to make your lashes look more natural. It definitely extended their length but not to an extent that wasn't flattering. I really liked using this mascara and it could be my new go to mascara. I say that now but next time I get makeup I'll probably find something new! 

I hope this helped some of you with finding a new mascara to use or not to use. I know I can't be the only one in love with mascara, good looking eyelashes have to be something everyone wants! Let me know what you think and what you might consider buying!
