We have to get smarter, when presented with a deal that seems to good to be true, usually it is too good to be true.

I picked up this Double Extension Ultra-Lengthening Mascara the other day because they were offering two for the price of one. A great deal. A hard to pass up deal.

So I bought it because, for me, there is a huge amount of value in being able to have two for the price of one. I keep one in my handbag and one in my gym bag so I don’t have to keep remembering to take my make-up purse into the gym. I know some of you are saying, oh how can that be a big deal. But when you have all the things I have to remember in the morning, you too would want to simplify your life.

Everything need to be in it’s place, I am very busy.

So, I have been using it for about a month now and it certainly doesn’t live up to it’s famous claims. No it doesn’t lengthen my lashes and really it should because it takes about 6 coats before you can see and mascara at all. You have to apply the base coat which is designed to coat your lashes and thicken them up, then you apply the top coat.

I find by the end of the day I have no mascara left or it doesn’t look like it and certainly not compared to my old mascara I used to use.

So really what might have seemed a great deal at the time has really turned out to be a waste of time and money. I was definitely blinded by the buy this and get one free deal.

So worry though I am already trying out a new one. Will keep you posted how I get on.

hot tip always take this mascara off at night. Even after using a cleanser in the morning, you will still look like something out of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. It isn’t pretty.
