Easily transform your lashes with the wizarding powers of Black Magic. The sickle-shaped (magic) wand creates the perfect amount of curl, with a thick, rounded brush to fully coat lashes, and the water-resistant, paraben-free formula lasts for 12 hours. What's more, it also conditions lashes with shea butter and keratin so they don't break as often. Plus, it comes with the Eyeko Shield, a unique guitar-pick shaped tool that helps prevent smudging—no hocus-pocus required.
So when I opened the product the brush scared me a little. It looks like one of those brushes you use to clean out your dryer vent, exposed metal and all. Once I got past that, the mascara itself is actually very nice. The color is a true jet black. From the description, I was expecting results similar to Benefits "They're Real" mascara, but the effect isn't that dramatic. For me this is a day to day, wear to work/grocery shopping product. My only complaint is that it took a little longer than I like to dry. But it didn't smear on me so that's awesome.
4I have one test that all mascaras that I try have to pass to be keepers-- they have to keep the curl in my lashes all day after I curl them in the morning. This mascara failed. I have nearly flat lashes and my lashes were just as flat as pre-curl within 10 seconds of putting on this mascara. Not for people that don't naturally have long, curled lashes.
2I absolutelly love this mascara! I have been using Cover Girl mascara exclusively for years, because for me I could never find anything that was better for me. That is, until I tried this mascara. I love that it stays put and doesn't smudge, or clump up my lashes, and more importantly at the end of the day it's not a mission trying to remove it. I also love the wand, the curve makes the application both easy and even.
