ooh la la lashes || a product review

A few weeks ago, I received a package in the mail from the one and only wet n wild cosmetic company. Needless to say I was excited ;) Inside the package were a whole bunch of goodies (including the nail polish I was wearing in this post) and ever since I got them I've been trying them out so I could give you guys the scoop!
Today, I'm going to be talking about the MegaVolume Mascara. Now, you guys might remember me talking about the MegaVolume Mascara a couple of different times. I'm finally going to bring you a proper review for it!


MegaVolume Mascara Review:
Here's what wet n wild has to say about it:

MEGA VOLUME™ MASCARA
Bat lush, mesmerizing lashes with this volume-building formula for natural-looking, fuller fringe!

I must say that for the most part, I agree with them! This mascara really does make my lashes noticeably
more voluminous. Here are some before and after pictures:
After ONE coat of MegaVolume Mascara:



The Formula & Brush:
This formula is on the drier side, which I typically enjoy in a mascara. My lashes are pretty naturally long, and they clump easily, so whenever I find a formula+brush that doesn't clump my lashes, I tend to fall in love. So obviously I am deeply in love with this one ;) The brush is as long as my eye, and I actually really like big brushes, I think they manage my long lashes waaay better than smaller ones. It also has natural bristles, which is a total plus for me. I ADORE natural bristled brushes that are able to separate and define each of my lashes!

Lasting Power:
I was extremely impressed by the staying power of this stuff. It lasted me a full 14-hour day with no flaking or smudging. Sometimes mascara on my bottom lashes will settle into the tiny creases under my eyes on a humid day-but not this one! It stayed put for as long as I needed it to.

Overall Thoughts:
If you haven't noticed already, I'm kind of in love with this mascara. The second day I tried it out it was literally the only makeup product on my face. My friend came over to my house and as soon as she saw me she said "Wow, Hannah you're eyelashes look really...... noticeable!"
Um, BOOYAH!
So yes, this is one of those products that I feel comfortable throwing on with nothing else on my face and going out in public. And that's saying a lot, because typically I like to have a little liner or concealer or something along with mascara. Also, I don't feel like I need to curl my lashes when I'm wearing this. Another plus, because that definitely shortens my "getting-ready time" in the morning!

I hope this review was helpful, and expect a couple more coming soon, along with tutorials!!
What's your all-time-favorite mascara?
