General Comments

Recently, I have been doing a lot of research on bourjois mascaras and have been looking for one to suit me. I have read many reviews and according to a lot of them pump up the volume mascara was the best. So I decided to try it out. I bought mine for about £7.89 I think and I am glad that I have. The packaging isn't very eye catching, unlike others such as extreme volume clubbing and maxi frange waterproof. The bottle is very comfortable to hold although it looks quite small even though it is an 8ml bottle which is more than some of my other mascaras. When I took out the wand I noticed the distinct smell of the mascara. It smelt like some sort of cream but the smell didn't put me off. It has standard bristles and unlike some other volumising mascaras they weren't packed really close together. Now for the testing. First, I curled my eyelashes with a normal, un-heated eyelash curler although the curl didn't last for very long. When I applied the mascara I could definitely see the volume building up although there were clumps but not big ones. It did make my lashes a lot thicker and blacker but it completely weighed down the curl! Despite this I will still continue to use this mascara as it has been the best mascara I have used before and it really does 'pump up the volume'!
