My favourite Mascara





About a year ago I decided to give the L’Oreal Beauty Tubes Mascara a go, largely due to the fact that I liked the idea of having the primer which preps the eyes and then applying the top coat of Mascara. I have used a primer before in the past with huge success and really wanted to have that Hollywood eye look again. Come on now, we are all entitled to dream and even if we wont make it to the red carpet, we can still have the eyes.
This Mascara is fantastic, once you get over the shock of removing it at the end of the day, it truly is one of the best I have ever used. Now I mentioned the removal of it, because there is of course an art to this and by me telling you, you will avoid the shock I got. The reason being is that when it comes off it does so in chunks and at first you do think that you a loosing all your eyelashes. This is not the case because by putting on the primer you are actually coating the lashes which is what gives them the full pop out look.
When you are removing the Mascara you need to soak a cotton pad, wait for a minute and then it will just melt off the eye, easy as that. Better still if you can remove it in the shower it’s even better. It really does just come off with warm water and there is virtually no smudging.
What really makes this Mascara a star in my book is the fact that it doesn’t move all day and even when we are really naughty and don’t take it off at night it doesn’t move , you can get up in the morning and it still looks good. Not that I recommend that of course.
It is really like having false eyelashes on but without the hassle of putting them on.
Now my last tip is that once you have put the primer on apply your Mascara straight away before it has a chance to dry, it’s much easier to get the Mascara onto the lashes while it’s wet and easier to put them into place.
It’s gets a whopping 5 out of 5 stars for me because of how good it is and also the price. It’s funny I have gone away to try various new ones as they come onto the market and always return to this one. Well worth it.

This certainly is all true - Thank you for your recommendation with this one Andrea. It totally does all you say - I can’t believe I’ve put up with a smudgy mascara that ends up all round my eyes by the end of the day - this one has some awesome staying power, and a great brush too.
