Last week I had that dreaded moment where my beloved loreal telescopic mascara ran out!!that's right I had desperately scraped out the last bits of mascara from the tube and released it was about time I bought a new mascara!
I tend to not stick to the same mascara for very long and take buying a new one as a chance to scope out a new mascara and hopefully find my holy grail! Therefore, went to my local House of Fraser counter and as per-usual I was approached by one of the sales people. Now usually I just say I'm fine because I normally know what I'm looking for. However, this time I literally had no idea, I've not really delved much into high end mascara's other than the famous Benefit they're real and one by MAC called Zoom Fast black lash. So I really didnt know where to look or what I was doing! Eventually after many attempts and trials I chose Hypnose Drama by Lancome in intense black.
When it comes to lashes I like them as intense and dramatic as they can get! and for that reason I can really see why this is a top selling mascara. As much as the packaging is just a slick black colour and not especially exciting, the actual mascara has really blown me away and really does curl the lashes whilst keeping them soft so they wont get crispy or spidery when building up layers of volume. I chose the intense black colour, which is good for me because the original wasn't particularly dark and I like my lashes to be as dark, long and voluminous as possible!
There's nothing especially great or unique about the wand but the formula is what really makes this mascara work and the brush just helps to grab all the lashes and is pretty easy to use. The mascara is not too wet and not too dry and really adds A LOT of volume and length. I just hope it lasts and stays that way for a while!
I would definitely say for £22.50 this mascara is worth it, as much as a love lower priced mascara's and am not a makeup up snob I truly think that other than the they're real mascara by Benefit this is the best macscara I have tried so far! which is kind of annoying as now I have to fork out a fair bit of money when I need a new one but I do think it's worth it ;).
I would love to know what your favourite mascara's are and whether you have any recommendations? Thank you for reading!
