This mascara is excellent at lifting, defining, giving length and non clumpy lashes! The formula is not too wet and not too dry its just right!
The curl/lift does drop after a while but not as bad as some mascaras and the pigment is good but I would prefer even blacker. The wand reminds me a lot of Better than Sex and Lash Paradise with the hourglass kind of shape and the packaging is in a gold tube.
Now the downside. Pretty quickly I found I would get a ring of black pigment like a shadow of the mascara under my eyes. Whether I do a lot of activity or nothing much this occurs. Its not dark black but its definitely there. Which sucks because it doesn't transfer up top, it doesn't flake but it does seem to bleed pigment. Now it is summertime here in Australia and maybe in cold weather it would perform better in this regard.
The two photos above illustrate the lower lid smudging that occurs just in a few hours wear!
Otherwise I would definitely recommend this mascara but with the caveat of watch out for The Ring!
Thank-you for reading.
