Fact: All mascaras are not created equal. I made it my mission year ago to try every drugstore mascara until I found the perfect one. Which I did recently, and I've mentioned it in a previous post (Maybelline's The Falsies Volume Express Mascara).
Though I feel my mission is complete, I don't want to entirely give up trying new mascaras because there might be something better. That being said, a couple of weeks ago I tried Revlon's Grow Luscious Mascara. I'm all for growing my lashes, what woman isn't? It was on sale and it came with an eyeshadow, so I figured it was worth a shot. Big mistake!
Fact: I have never hated any mascara. Disappointed? Yes, but never hated. Well, there's always a first time...
The brush was too big, and I felt that I couldn't fully coat my lashes with the brush being more in the way than actually being useful. As far as how it looked when I finally managed to put some on, it wasn't anything special. It didn't really lengthen, volumize or curl, which is kind of the whole point when it comes to mascara. However, this is not what completely turned me off from this product. I wore it for 2 hours, came home and looked in the mirror. I looked like a raccoon. It had flaked and smudged all around my eyes and who know's when it actually started to flake. I could have been walking around like that for an hour. I've never had that happen to me.
So if you want to grow your lashes, want to try something new or on a quest to find that perfect mascara, let me save you some trouble. This mascara is not worth your money (no matter how cheap or on sale it is).
