- WINNER: The giveaway is closed now, and the winner is Veronika! Congratulations, Veronika! If you entered but didn’t win this time around, keep trying, and click here to enter any ongoing giveaways before you jet. 🙂
Not the type of gal who likes to wait (neither am I)? Well, here’s your chance to win the newest member of the Benefit team before it launches next month.
Jet black They’re Real mascara promises beyond-belief (ala, “Yes, they’re real. Thank you for asking.”) length, separation, curl hold, volume and lift — basically, the whole shebang if you like big, bold lashes.
I like it, particularly the dark, rich color and multi-function brush. The staggered bristles do seem to help it in the volume department, and the spiky tip is pretty good for detailed work. I think the finished lash look actually resembles the one I get from MAC Studio Fix BoldBlack Mascara — jet black and lightweight, yet it looks thick, with a moderate increase in length, coupled, however, with a slight tendency to relax the curl from my lash curler.
If you’d like to preview a tube before it officially hits stores, read on, Benefit babe!
One lucky lady (or gent) will win:
- One (1) tube of Benefit They’re Real Mascara (a $22 value) before it launches in-stores this July
Two coats leave my lashes looking thick and dark, and it stays put all day long without flaking or smudging. On top of that, it remains easy to remove.
Before (top) and after two coats (bottom)
Before (left) and after two coats (right)

I <3 benefit and can't wait to try this! fantastic!

the first mascara i’ve ever tried?! i don’t even remember. i did a lot of performing arts things growing up, but was too young to have my own makeup, so i probably played around with my mom’s… i’m guessing it was lancome or estee lauder or something like that…….. back in the ’90s haha
i can’t even remember the first tube i ever bought for MYSELF! geez long ago! maybe a diorshow? i like covergirl’s lash blast though, so i wonder if benefit’s they’re real could replace that!

Boston — underdogs!
Van — Canada.
Ish says
The first mascara I ever tried was Sephora. I got as a bday gift from Sephora. I look for something that makes my lashes look thick but is good at separating them.
Chris25 says
I once sent a text message to the wrong photographer. I was telling another photographer I couldn’t work with her, because I already committed to another person. The text accidently went to Gio and he flipped out on me! After I explained what happened he calmed down.

Manola says
Do you curl your lashes before applying mascara or are they naturally curvy lashes?
Nadia A. says
Happy Birthday again, Karen! Hope you are enjoying your special day. What I look for in a mascara is one that gives volume and length to my eyelashes, as well as doesn’t smudge or flake. I absolutely love Cover Girl Lash Blast (Orange tube) and L’Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black. I bought the Diorshow Mascara and am going to start using it next week.
Chelsey says
Oh my gosh.. a mascara launch that I am actually excited about? Yay! That brush looks so lush.

Years ago I had dinner with my DH and when dinner was finished I stood up to leave and looked down at my shirt and realized my button up shirt was unbuttoned to reveal my bra! I was wondering why the waiter was so attentive to our table.

I once sent a text message to the wrong person and accidentally told her what I was getting her for Christmas. Oops. After I fixed the mix up, I picked out a new present and accidentally sent a text to her AGAIN telling her what the new present was going to be. Double oops.
Heidi says
I always look for a mascara that adds volume so this might do the trick!
Nanna says
I would looove to try this mascara, but it seems to promise a lot – but usually Benefit makes nice products that easily fall into my taste so why wouldn’t this 😉
Kathy says
I feel like I’m always looking for the perfect mascara! For now I’ve settled on Diorshow but I’m excited to try this. Gotta love the sassy packaging of Benefit products haha.

I had a plant in my room but I forgot about it and it died haha
Kim Snyder says
I have two plants in my house, that I am really surprised are still living.~! My poor tree is still growing after years of me forgetting to water it.. lol I just got a little violet that I am hoping with bloom soon.. I love roses only if they really smell like a real rose.. why grow them if they do not?
I have never tried Benefit mascara so it would be really fun to win one to try.. 🙂
Jennifer says
Hmmm…I don’t know if I’ll ever come to terms with my real lashes! I love my falsies way too much!
Madelynn says

How sweet of you to do a giveaway on your birthday!
As a die-hard Oilers fan I still havent really decided who I’m cheering for but I’m leaning towards Boston on this one!
Christy O says
I really want to go to Korea or Malaysia and buy a thousand bb creams.
Liza says
Thanks so much for the giveaway and happy birthday! In terms of mascara, I normally get the drugstore version because I have tried both expensive and inexpensive mascaras and find that the d.s. version usually works just as well in terms of length, volume, thickness, and curl. My current fav is Maybelline One by One, but I would love to give this one a try.
Jenny Bernett says
Happy Birthday :)! I have been searching for a great mascara for what seems like forever; haven’t been able to commit yet…
Ale says
My major pet peeve with mascara is it taking too long to dry, and smudging my lids. Blessed with naturally curled, longish lashes, so don’t ask for much. 🙂
Delaney says
hope i win! this mascara looks amazing!! thank you sooosooo much for these!
Lyza Rae says
People ask me all the time if my lashes are real, I’d love to tell them it’s They’re Real, ha.
Nora says

heidi says
Our AC was broken at work today. I live in arizona so the high was 100! Our store was at least 85
Elaine says
Today is the first real day of summer! It’s finally warm!
Molly says
I think the first mascara I ever bought was Maybelline Great Lash? I still love the green and pink tube but prefer cruelty free make up nowadays.
I used to use L’Oreal mascara, a curling formula that they discontinued. Revlon Lash Fantasy was my preferred brand but I don’t like the new brush on it so I’m looking for a new brand.
I like mascara that is black enough without looking too matte or flat. I also prefer a mascara that curls but if it lengthens or adds volume, even better!
I want the Canucks to win the Stanley Cup!
Amista says
When i look for a new mascara i typically like a hybrid that lengthens and volumizes so i dont waste money buying two products – and waste time applying two different mascaras! Thanks for the chance to win!! 🙂 I RT you @amistabaker on twitter.
evo says
Happy birthday! Hope u are having a great time in vancity. Hope u and hubby get to do all the things u have planned

lrielle says

yiota says

I think my first mascara was Maybelline Great Lash.

When choosing a mascara I look for one that does not clump easily. My go-to mascara now is CoverGirl’s Lash Blast Fusion.. Its goes on great and has a sturdy brush.
Kevin says
I…am a guy -epic- -claps all round-
I seldom having experience with make up until I met my girlfriend, who is very obsessed with makeup, and frequently links me to eminent blogs such as yours 🙂
My only personal experience with a mascara is when my girlfriend forced me to sit down and let her put mascara on me. It was waterproof…so it lasted for 3 days -SIGHFACE- (hopefully people in law school didn’t notice too much :P)
I’m commenting because what you give away reminds me of a special piece of my memory. 🙂
<3 to my girlfriend Liz (if she ever happens to read this) and all hail makeup!

Kaianne says
I hope the Canucks win the Stanley Cup! I’m not a hockey fan, at all, but I’m Canadian, so I have to root for the Canadian team, even if it means going against my city’s rivalry against Vancouver.
ashleigh g says
Happy birthday to my fav blogger
nabel says
happy birthday!!!! 🙂
Christine says
After much searching, my HG mascara is Lancome Definicils, but as much as I love it for every day I’m always on the search for a higher drama mascara for nights out/performances/etc… Could this one be it? I hope so, because I do love Benefit!

Happy Birthday!!!
Thats all I got…. I am getting married in a few months and my brain is fried!!!
Sarah says
My very first was a dior mascara and it was so good! Really didn’t flake or smear and that’s saying something on my crazy, oily, hooded lids!
monica says
I’m a mascara junkie! Benefit makes good mascara, I actually don’t have a favorite.
Aryal S. says
Hmm the first mascara I ever tried was bare minerals big tease! It’s a great natural looking mascara, and to this day I’ll still fish it out from the back of my drawer to use every now and then!
CarolineK says
Totally interested in trying this stuff!!
Caroline says
Happy Birthday!! Hope you had a fabulous day!
Margherita says
This looks really nice! I love BADgal lash 🙂
Kai says
I love your blog! I have always used two different mascaras on my lashes – the mascaras alternate, but, for some reason, it gives it that extra pop when you use one mascara throughout your upper and lower lashes and then using a different one right at the ends of your top lashes. I like: L’oreal Voluminous and Telescopic and Maybelline Falsies. I would love to try Benefit’s next – your pictures have me sold. Cute packaging, too!
tiffanyterese says
my fave mascaras are volumizing ones! i love loreal voluminous and dior blackout!
christiane says
happy belated birthday! 🙂
Karen says
i still haven’t found the one yet, mascara wise (:
Emily says
Today is my H.S. Bestie’s birthday, and Johnny Depp’s of course..growing up the only person listed as sharing my birthday was ” Opera Singer Beverly Sills “, deeply disappointing to say the least.

Jay says
The first mascara I ever tried was Maybelline Great Lash when I was first getting into makeup.
MicheleR says
Oh, mascara – how I adore you! I’ve been looking for the perfect mascara since I was a teenager… Good luck all – Cheers!
Josie says
Karen, its your birthday yet you are showering us with gifts!!! Hope you had a great one! This mascara looks great!
p.s. I want the Canucks to win the Stanley Cup. I’m a big Toronto Maple Leafs fan (born & raised here) and we haven’t even made the playoffs in years so everyone is still excited that another Canadian team is in! Plus, i think Vancouver holds a special place in the heart of Canadians since the Olympics! Hope you get caught up in the spirit when you are there!!! Enjoy your trip!
D.S. says
First mascara I’ve ever tried was something from IsaDora… I remember it took me 40 minutes to put on two coats! I couldn’t understand than how women have time to use it every morning 😀
Gala says
ooh! excited! thanks for opening it worldwide
Dini says
The first tube of mascara I ever used was Lancome Definicils. i was 11 years old and my best friend Ery gave me this mini, mini tube for my birthday. I still think its one of the best mascaras I’ve ever used…
Sally Jane says
I honestly just look for cute packaging when it comes to mascara 😀 Lancome and Clinique have never really appealed to me due that reason.
Nika says
The first mascara I ever used up was Maybelline’s Volum’ Express Magnum Waterproof Mascara.
I’ve learned that what goes best with my lashes is if the formula is more on the dry side, since I’ve got pretty thin lashes. I’ve already got the length, I usually just look for volume. 😀
Biba says
I spent last two days in very interesting class.
J says
Great Lash was the first… and it was the last time!
glaiza pineda says
I will trade my lash extensions for this!!!!
Grace says
I never believe mascara claims, so it’s nice to be able to try new ones to see if they stand up to the test!
Lovi says
happy birthday karen! hope you have a great time in canada 🙂
Liz says
I’m still searching for a mascara that won’t give me raccoon eyes. Unfortch, DiorShow isn’t doing it for me. 🙁
chloe says
my favorite mascara atm is a little gwp lancome one my mum gave me and it is my fave for everyday looks or just casual hang outs it is so super lovely it defines my lashes really well and doesnt budge even with my oily lids~ it’s a dream
my first though was an anna sui waterproof one my aunt gave as a present and I didn’t like it os much haha it was clumpy on purpose and was much too difficult to clean @-@
Elin says
Incoming birthday!
Terri says
I am off tomorrow and would love to try this mascara.
Wanda says
Is Benefit really worth the money? I want to try out their blushes and creasless cream shadow/liners, however the price is stopping me from doing it.
Any thoughts?
Wanda
Megan says
yes please! something related to sending emails to the wrong person – my pet peeve is when people unscrupulously hit “reply all”! Grr! Thanks for doing this giveaway 🙂
SaBaH says
This mascara looks nice. Definitely want to try it on. -_-
Sylvia says
woot woot go vancouver canucks!!!!
Chelsey says
I can’t remember my first. Probably a CG one!
Kerrie H says
The first mascara I tried was my mum’s Estee Lauder one when I was a kid =]
Anna says
My all-time favourite mascara is MF 2000 calorie. Creates a dramatic look and stays put all day.
Anna says
the first mascara i ever tried was maybelline great lash mascara 🙂
Kim says
The first mascara I tried as Maybelline’s Great Lash in blackest black. Even though now I use MAC mascara, Maybelline’s great lash is still one of my favorites.
Jen says
what was the very first mascara you ever tried? It was Maybelline Great Lash….really still an oldie but goodie
What do you look for in a mascara? Thick, bold, and dark.
Have you ever accidentally sent an email to the wrong person? Yes. Thankfully nothing too bad.
How many plants do you have in your house? 3. I think they’re dying….
Who’s going to win the Stanley Cup? I dunno I follow baseball and I don’t have much to say about my team right now :/ (The Cubs)
maria says
Great competition! I really wonder how this baby stacks up to bad gal waterproof mascara. My first mascara was mebelline great lash. Its pretty good stuff. :p The i moved on teh CG Lash Blast 🙂
<3
Jill says
I’d love to try this!
Dea says
I want a hot, hot summer! 🙂
Lorraine says
I’m watching super 8 today!
Hope says
Maybelline great lash was my first. I have never been in love or in like with a mascara.
raquel says
I want to try this!
Jules says
I look for volume, separation and a touch of lengthening when choosing mascara. It must also be contact lens friendly.
irini says
Happy belated birthday! What gifts did you get?? Do tell 😉
Ohhhh the first mascara I ever used…. Well, remember that Loreal one with the two sides, the white one and the red one? Yeah that one. Which was basically my mother’s, and she had no idea I was using it… Shhh! Now, I swear by MAC’s Studio Fix… It makes my lashes really va-va-voom… And I think I may as well be the only person who loves it :O
DalaLuz says
It looks good! I am actually learning that I am more looking for extension & separation than for volume in a mascara. I only grab my more volumizing mascara’s on the rare occasion when I really go all out, which doesn’t happen that much anymore, otherwise I definitely do prefer a more natural look.
Niya says
My first mascara was by Maybelline, but my favourite by far is Chanel Inimitable, it seperates and lengthens my eyelashes, I love it!
Molly says
Soo pumped to try this mascara!
Anna Escondo says
I’m still on the lookout for a mascara that’s so black, provides length and volume, and most importantly can hold the curl.
Helena says
looking for a mascara to get me off my Armani Eyes to Kill addiction…
rory says
happy birthday :)!!
Kiran says
My biggest pet peeve with mascaras is that very few can deliver without clumping lashes. My current fav after trying a few high end ones is Maybelline Full n Soft. I quite like this one.
Lindsay B says
My first mascara was Maybelline Volume Express. I accidentally picked up a dark brown shade instead. I didn’t even know they made brown shades at that point and I was about 13.
Carlyn says
HI Karen! First of all, Have a wonderful birthday!
I’d love to win this mascara as I’m still looking for something that I could use that fits my needs. I”m not really sure if other people have this problem as well, if it’s a rare or common thing..but my right set of eyelashes aren’t as long and full as my left ones. Not sure why! Err. Almost like half the fullness and length =/ I’m not a mascara person but I think it’s highly caused by not finding the right type of mascara for me yet.
Christy says
L’Oreal Voluminous is my favorite!
Stephanie says
I love trying new mascara. I am always in the search of “the one!”
Jessica says
I’m currently rotating between 3 different mascaras, one from Clinique, one from Tart, and one from Cargo. All are ok but I’m always looking to try a new one!
Lydia says
Happy b day!
Courtney Washington says
I am currently using the mascara duo of Fairydrops and Grow Luscious Waterproof, and I like it but I’m always looking for a new one.

Yay – I love Benefit!
Evelyn says
I’ve been a Canucks fan for years, but these last two games were horrifying. Still hoping they can pull it out!
Vvn says
I remember the very first time I tried mascara.. and I got a huge blob of black ink in my eye! I was about 10 and clueless how to do it properly and terrified by the ridiculous thought I was going to be blind!
sarah says
so i recently converted to BAD GAL a few months ago when a Sephora employee converted me and I haven’t looked back since. just like the perfect foundation, a perfect mascara seems to be always on my list…there’s always room for improvement. here’s hoping i win one of these finally and get to find out! 🙂
Atifa H says
I can be without lip gloss, blush, bronzer, eyeshadow… but I cannot be without mascara. True story! 😉
Nicole says
Still looking for my HG mascara; could this be the one?
Monica says
Being jet lagged 5 days after vacation is not cool..
NeenaJ says
I mourn the US loss of Max Factor! I loved their mascaras. Hopefully, this one may fill the very empty big shoes.
ann marie says
Nose is soooo tuffed! Can’t breathe….need new mascara to make me feel better! 🙂
Saddy says
AWESOME!! Thanks.
Autumn garcia says
I love mascara!! The finishing touch on all my make up looks is a couple layers of mascara.
Annessa says
My first mascara was Maybelline Great Lash! I thought the tubes colors were the coolest thing ever.
Since my Flyers are out, I’m gonna have to say Go Canucks Go! My boyfriend is a huge fan ( hes been a reeeeaaally happy camper the past 2 games), so Ive been sucked in a bit. Plus, how catchy is the song “Black Red, Yellow”? It’s stuck in my head right now!
Abi says
I used to hate mascara – it felt like pantyhose for my eyes, but I’ve finally come around. Time to break out the suntan hose.
meibaola says
TGIF!!! Have a nice sunny weekend you all close to the loves of your life <3
Christina says
I love this mascara! 😀
Maya Pause says
Well I can’t remember the first mascara I have ever tried, but I can tell you that at the moment I love the Dior Mascaras. However, since I’m a poor college student, I can’t afford to keep purchasing their wonderful mascaras, and now that it is completely dry, I need something new. But I’m afraid of purchasing something and not liking it!! So, I would love to win this and try it because it looks gorgeous on you!
Also, I’m visiting my brother in the city. Last night, the cat that lives in his apartment made me miss my kitty at home. So I’m shouting out to my kitty Topaz because I miss her and I can’t wait to see her again!!!!!
Kim says
I remember waiting for the bus in Jr. High and one of the neighborhood gals my age saying “how do you do that? You’re eyelashes looks like spider’s legs”. She meant it as a compliment because hers were clumpy. It’s all in the wand wiggle, of course. 🙂
I thought Vancouver was going to run away with the Cup this year, but Boston is playing with much more heart (and fire in their bellies). I’m going to have to go with the Bs winning this year. Total shocker for me!
Erin says
My first mascara was when I was really young and it was Maybelline Great Lash. YUCK! My mom still uses it…I’m like, no really, there are other BETTER options. Almost all options are better in fact. Thanks for the giveaway!
Anna says
My drink at starbucks is a grande soy chai latte. DELICIOUS!

ann says
I want to go surfing!
Bomi says
This looks awesome!
Melissa says
My all-time favorite mascara was Loreal Le Grand Curl. Who knows what happened to it but man, I…loved….that….stuff! It really did lift and curl my lashes. I tried that Telescopic mascara and the Voluminous but they don’t come close. Sad 🙁 Right now I’m loving Tarte’s Lights Camera Lashes. Can this top it?
Gauri says
I will definitely want this! How long does it last? Is it like a regular tube of mascara?
Angela says
I love trying out new mascaras!
Amy N. says
Hope benefit they’re real will be my favorite. 😉
LauraJ says
I have a lime tree in the side yard that needs to be planted this weekend
Jackie says
In mascaras i look for volume, volume, and intensity!! I like it to be real black and give my eyes that bold look!! I love how the right kind of mascara makes your eyes look. Right now I’m still on the lookout for that perfect mascara, i still haven’;t found one i absolutely love 🙁 I hope i win this one and i love it!! Thanks!
Lyndsey says
I really hope this summer goes well
Cass says
I do not have any plants in my house. I just can not keep them alive! I can’t even keep the easy ones alive. Two different people have bought me African Violets because they are supposed to be easy to keep alive. They still die on me. 🙁
Marie says
The first mascara I tried was a Lancome. It was my mom’s, and needless to say I didn’t use it well. ^^

I’m starting to investigate clear mascaras because I haven’t tried them before.

Tuhina says
I’m always looking to find the next best mascara!
Lors says
My first mascara was Maybelline Great Lash. I stopped using it after that first tube!
Kayla says
I’ve been wanting to try this out sooooo bad! Although, admittedly, the brush kind of freaks me out 😛 It’s neat though! Everyone is describing it as lightweight, yet with tons of length & volume, so I’m really hoping that holds true once I get my hands on it.
Betty says
pretty lashes are awesome =)
Melissa says
We’ve come a long way since “dial a lash”. lol!
styleezta says
I look for length and volume!

Liene says
I like natural looking mascaras for everyday wear and they have to separate my lashes well.
Amanda says
The first mascara i ever tried was Loreal featherlash and i loved it too bad they don’t make it anymore!!
Kritika says
I never step out of my house without mascara on!
Nadia says

meredith M says

Abby says
My first mascara was Maybelline Great Lash. It took me a while to discover that mascara could do anything but make my lashes darker (which I do need– they’re pale blonde). I’d love to try this one!
Janire says
My first mascara was rimmel london’s Glam’ Eyes (but the regular one, no the waterproof one). Have many other mascaras that I love but don’t know why I can’t life without it…. xoxo

Wow, I’m crazy about mascaras, I would love to have this one !*-*
Samantha says
Still on the hunt for the prefect mascara. I’ve tried benefit bad gal before and liked it though it smudged at bit too much on me. I can’t wait for this to be released in the UK! I’ve emailed benefit and asked at counters but so far no-one can tell me if we’ll get it soon!
bagaela says
My first mascara…great lash mascara from maybeline. I liked it that time…altough today it would drive me crazy with all the falcking and so, but back than, it was the start of my teenager years!
Jessica W says
Gotta say, Maybelline’s mascara was my first….ahh, how I used to look upon my ol’ mascara and smile 😀 Now, I’ve tried more than 30 mascaras and have new loves, but I’d never forget my first mascara…
Tess says
I’ve loved makeup all my life!
LESLIE says
My first bottle of mascara was the classic Maybelline (green and pink bottle)

Another fab giveaway – thanks! My first mascara was Maybelline Great Lash, I think. Now I have about 8 in rotation…always looking for the next best (better?) one, lol.
Rebecca says
I would love to find a mascara to challenge my favorite YSL faux cils. Maybe this is it?
Lauren says
Today, my hubby left for work and a palmetto bug (a big roach down here in SC) landed on him! SO GROSS!!
Mandy says
I have never found anything to top YSL faux cils mascara so I hope this one delivers.
Jenn says
I would love to try this! Right now I’m using maybelline colossal, but my all time favorite is Tarte lights camera splashes. I wish it wasn’t so expensive!

kayla b says
I love benefit <3 I really wanted to like badgal but it runnnnns.
Catherine says
I think the first mascara I tried was Great Lash, which I didn’t like (despite all the hype!) since it flaked everywhere.
Kelly says
Thinking back to my first mascara makes me feel really old! It was probably Cover Girl since that was all I wore before I became a makeup snob.
Adia says
My first mascara is Maybelline, I think .
I tweeted too

Thank you for the giveaway.
Liz says
I want a mascara that gives me length and volume without smudging or flaking, then comes off easily at the end of the day. I’m still looking.
I am the classic crazy cat and plant lady with 5 of the former and 23 pots of the latter (so far).
Tiffany Lee says
I don’t have any house plants…..my dogs would eat them!!!! HA

martan says
TGIF
Debbie says
I’d love to try this ,ascara!
Trude says
I’d love to try that mascara! Bad Gal Lash has been my go-to for years but I’ve noticed lately the formula seems to dry out quickly (or maybe Sephora had it on its shelves for too long?). I think my first mascara ever was one of Estee Lauder’s because my mom loves their skin and body products so she always had freebies from their gift sets. 🙂
Jennifer says
OMG! This mascara looks like it works wonders. I using Mac mascara and I love it, but I’m always up for trying something new and improved.
Elaine R says
I’m dating myself- my first mascara was Maybelline cake mascara,the kind that you wet the brush then rubbed the brush on the cake of mascara. So glad we have progressed on to easy,great mascaras.
Siena says
So I just recently started a new mascara regimen that’s been working wonders for my otherwise stunted and sad asian eyelashes. Thanks to sephora I received a free sample of the diormax eyelash primer and a sample of bad gal lash, the latter of which I really wasn’t very enthusiastic about. Turns out they are great together!! I’ve actually gotten compliments several times because people actually notice I have eyelashes! But my days with eyelashes are numbered since my diormax is quickly vanishing haha…
Elaine R says

First mascara I ever tried was Maybelline. I loved it, still do only thing is it’s literally the only mascara that I always manage to get on my eyes. So I always have specks of it over my make-up and have to “touch up” afterward.

Melodyy says
The very first mascara I’ve ever tried was Revlon’s Double Twist and I hated the formula. It was clumpy and just terrible. So terrible.
Kim says
I’d love to find a mascara that lengthens and adds volume, while separating my lashes. I don’t enjoy mascara that clumps my lashes.

i can’t even remember the first mascara i ever tried, it was that long ago!! it was probably the maybelline green & pink mascara.
btw, happy birthday!!!

Giselle says
I’m excited for the Hobbit movies
Eva says
What a great prize, I honestly cannot remember the first mascara I tried, but I think it may of possibly been one from max factor, I loved it so much I tried to convince myself it didn’t have a life span so it went super clumpy and dry every time I used it!
Judy says
i really wish i had seen this post before! :(((
izzy says

Deb says
I tried your suggestion of layering two different mascaras, and it’s great!
