Benefit Roller Lash Mascara

This new mascara from Benefit launched a few weeks ago and ELLE magazine were giving away free samples of the product with their magazine. I love getting samples of mascaras because I sometimes find that they are better than the full size product, in terms of quality. And also they are super handy for travelling!

The roller lash mascara is described as a roller for your lashes. The brush is designed so that it grabs, separates, lifts and curls lashes, giving an instant curl lasting up to 12 hours.

When I first used it, I thought wow, this is brilliant. It instantly lifted my lashes without the use of an eyelash curler and made them look even longer. And I do find that it lasts all day! However, the formula is a little heavy and does clump my lashes, so I have to careful with how I use it. I do quite like the heavy look, especially for a night out but it is perhaps too heavy for in the day at work. I like the way it opens the eye up and makes a visible difference.

The unique concept of the mascara and the super cute design of the product, is something which I really like and I do think it is worth it's price tag of £19.50. I will probably buy the full size product, just because of the effectiveness of the mascara, but the thickness of the formula does put me off a little.

Have you tried the Benefit roller lash mascara yet? What did you think of it?

Thanks for reading!

Maybelline Satin Brow Eyebrow Pencil

I have been treating myself to the HD brow treatment over the past few months and I have been loving the results. As part of the treatment, you have to be really tough with yourself and leave your eyebrows to grow. I thought I would be rubbish at this, but I have actually found it quite easy. I do fill in my brows with pencil usually (and this is must at the moment, as it does help to make them look a lot neater).
