I have had a love-hate relationship with this mascara since the day I opened it. Even now as I write this review, I’m still not 100% sure on what to say.
Do I mention how it was not as dramatic or intense as I thought it would be? That each morning I dreaded putting it on because I knew it just didn’t satisfy my needs? How, especially after using my Wake Me Up Mascara, I was expecting something a little… more? Do I say how if I wanted to get somewhere near my desired clumpy mascara’d lash look I would have to put on about three coats of the stuff? And that even then, my lashes still felt lacklustre? Do I blame the brush (which was one that I know from experience is clearly not designed to give over-the-top lash power), after all, surely, I can’t be the problem? Or do I mention that sometimes, just sometimes, this mascara gave me the right dose of oompf that I needed, making me look somewhat civilised? Or how about the fact that after using this mascara for nearly six months I slowly started opening my heart to it and accepting its limited but noticeable charms.
I’m still not sure. Will I buy this mascara again? Probably not, but never say never.
