Top 5: Mascara
All right guys
today I’m kicking off my Top 5 beauty series and I thought I would start off
with Mascara. So today I’m going to tell you my top five choices and why. I’m
sure everyone had different favorites and I have by no means tried all the
mascaras on the market, so my top five is based on what I have personally used.
I would love to know your top five so please share in the comments.
-----------------------------------------------------
Too Faced:
Better Than Sex Mascara,
From the website this is an intensely
black, volumizing mascara with an hourglass-shaped brush the separates, coats and
curls.
The first time
I used this mascara I was very impressed, while I only own the travel size the
wand was very easy to hold and I had no issue sweeping the brush over my
eyelashes. I found the color to be dark and when it dried my lashes still felt
nice and they was no flaky mess under my eyes at the end of the day.
Milk Makeup: Ubame Mascara
From the website this is a lash-loving,
buildable, 74 percent natural mascara formula that won’t flake and stays put
all day.
When I saw the brush of this newly launched brand I new I wanted to give it a try. I believe that
the shape of the bristles allows it to separate your lashes better so you don’t
get clumpy lashes. It has nice coverage and no flakiness, it did make my
eyelashes a little crunchy.
Buxom: Vanity Lash Mascara
I don’t believe I have had this mascara
long, but I could not find it for sale on Sephora or Ulta, but some other sites
did have this one still available.
I have several
mascaras from Buxom, it was one of the first non drugstore mascaras I
purchased. This one is my favorite the bristles are somewhat short and do a
good job of separating your lashes, I normally do 2 coats of this one to
achieve maximum coverage and my lashes always feel soft, there is a bit of
flakiness if you wear it for longer than about 9 hours.
Benefit Cosmetics: They’re Real! Mascara
From the website The specially designed brush features
staggered bristles that grab close to the root, boosting length and volume
beyond belief.
This is one of those mascaras you have to use a few times
before you really like it, at least for me it was. The first few times I didn’t
really like it, but after putting it down for a few weeks and then trying it
again, I don’t know if the formula just had to settle or what, but yes these
really make my lashes look full and flirty.
Glamour
Dolls:
Mermaid Lashes Mascara
From the website Glamour Doll's Mascara gives
you voluminous lashes in a splash proof formula this limited edition formula
will be back for summer 2017.
I received this mascara in a beauty box and it
is one of the only waterproof mascaras I wear. The formula is nice and when it
comes time to cleanse your face it does not take forever to remove this beauty
from your lashes. Its does make your lashes a little crunchy, but there is no
fall out and the easy removal makes it a good one.
Honorable Mention:
Icona
Milano:
Emotion Allowed Mascara
From the website ICONA MILANO is a “Made in Italy” brand. Long lasting and with
no smudges at all this mascara is water, sweat and humidity resistant.
I only use this one on my lower lashes the slim handle and the short brush make it perfect to apply to lower lashes with out getting smudges of mascara under your eye. The waterproof formula is great as I have water eyes and no one wants to see black lines flowing down their cheeks.
