Summer Lashes Had Me a Blast
Hey guys!



Did anyone get the Grease reference in the title? :p
I don't know about you, but I find it really difficult finding a mascara that truly is waterproof!! I've tried several "Waterproof" mascaras and let me tell you, whoever had the brilliant idea of writing "waterproof" on the packaging should probably go find another job!! Haha :p
Every "waterproof" mascara I've tried to this day have left me looking like a panda (no offense to pandas. It's just not the look I'm going for) or glueing my eyes shut (and I mean SHUT)...
I tried this Essence get big Lashes in the waterproof version - €2.5 and at first, I though it would smudge all over cause it leaves so much product on the lashes... I was wrong!
This is the BEST WATERPROOF MASCARA I've tried!! It's not perfect (I haven't found one yet) but it's pretty close! (As per usual, I have a list of Pros and Cons below)
Ps: I went underwater with it, to show you the true results! :)
Pros
- ACTUALLY WATERPROOF!!
- Volumizing
- Lengthening
- No flaking
- Easy to remove with makeup remover (I use the Garnier Micellar Water)
- Gives a false lash effect without being fake looking... Did that make sense?
- Very affordable
- Doesn't dry out fast (I've had this for about 4 months now and it's still going strong)
Cons
- The wand is a little too big so if I'm not careful, I get mascara all over my eyelid
- It clumps a teeeeeny bit after being in water (nothing a little "finger combing" won't fix... Did I just makeup that expression? Lol)
(I really hope an ant didn't get in my mascara when I wasn't looking...)
(Look how big the wand is! Wait. What? Lol)
(Before and after. Btw, I didn't curl my eyelashes or anything)
And now the part you've all been waiting for... Drum roll please...
(Whaaat?)
(Just noticed I had a bubble in my eye... Weird)
(It clumps a teeny bit but it still looks pretty good in my opinion...)
What's your favourite waterproof mascara?
Stay dorky and weird.

It looks indeed really good for a waterproof mascara! I just never use any mascara when i go swimming and that's fine for me haha, but i understand that some of us really wants a waterproof mascara! (:

i use this mascara ( the normal version without waterproof) and it's one of the best i think, it's really not expensive but it even beats the ones who are!
ReplyDeleteyour funny, the photos and the text made me laugh!
i have to try the waterproof version for summer!

I normally pick out waterproof versions of mascaras just cause my eyes water quite a bit :)

ohhh this looks like it really holds up under water even if it clumps a little. I'm not a fan of waterproof mascara to be honest, I can't get rid of it afterwards.
ReplyDeletePam Scalfi♥
I know exactly what you mean!! I hate removing waterproof mascara cause it sticks like a bloodsucker hahah x)
Deletethis is the perfect mascara for you!! Its super easy to remover with makeup remover! :)
Xoxo Jessy
Haha, I got the Grease reference! I love Greece! And wow, the Essence mascara actually works! I'm not a fan of their mascaras but I heard they recently changed it. It looks amazing <3

Yes!! Waterproof mascaras are perfect for when you have allergies or even cry lol
DeleteThanks! I will
Xoxo Jessy
Wow, I find it incredible that you went underwater with this mascara! I love the Maybelline the falsies in waterproof, but I haven't ever gone underwater with it. I just like waterproof mascaras to hold a curl and not smudge on hot days :)
ReplyDeleteRachelShuchatMakeup
Haha thanks! :)
DeleteOuu I haven't tried that one!!
Yeah I feel you. This one hold a curl and doesn't smudge either ;)
Xoxo Jessy
Wow that's amazing! I love your underwater photo too. I find it hard to find a mascara that doesn't smudge so I'm really tempted to try this one out!
ReplyDeletewww.sophieslittlesecrets.blogspot.com
Aww thanks!! :)
DeleteYes, you should definitely check this one out then!
Xoxo Jessy
Ha! I love your photos, especially the underwater one! Essence is such a great brand, and so inexpensive! Love it!

DeleteI know right??
Xoxo Jessy
I think will definitely try it, great post :) I was on a lookout for one.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.fancycorrectitude.com/
Yes do!! It's truly great! :)
DeleteThanks!!
Xoxo Jessy
I've never tried Essence mascaras and the look of the big brush wouldn't be something I'd be a fan of, but the fact that it's waterproof and actually lasts so well when you've been underwater is amazing x
ReplyDeleteBeauty with charm
Yeah i needed to work with it a bit cause I wasn't used to it lol but after a while, it turned out great!
DeleteThanks! :)
Xoxo Jessy
That mascara looks amazing! I'm annoyingly allergic to water proof make up but would love that mascara in my life If I could! haha. http://coffeeatmidnight13.blogspot.co.uk/
ReplyDeleteReally?! :o oh my goodness!!
DeleteWell, there's also a non-waterproof version of this mascara!!! I don't know if it's good (cause I've never tried it) but Im just letting you know :)
