It’s a Pain To Remove But this $9 Mascara Rocks
If you aren’t keen on spending $20+ for a mascara at the moment might I introduce you to my $9 discovery? I’ve been using this for about a year now. I can’t recall who but someone on Tiktok had recommended it last Summer and I immediately purchased it and ulta.com! Since that time I’ve repurchased it a few times and even grabbed the brown version.
It’s quickly become a staple mascara for me and I hate to say this, truly I do, but it’s replaced Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes for me. I’m a diehard Lights, Camera, Lashes girl but this stuff is way better!
That being said, it’s a bit of a pain in the ass to remove.
If you’re curious which mascara I’m talking about, it’s Colourpop Level Up Lengthening Mascara. Colourpop has an excellent line up of products as well all know but I don’t think I’d ever consider them for mascara. I dunno why but I get this vibe they’d sucked at mascara. For example, Pat Mcgrath makes damn fine eyeshadows, blushes, etc…but man, Mother sucks at mascara! FetishEYES Mascara is $34 and awful! Sometimes brands are like that. They excellent at one category of product but fail miserably at others. And I think I was under the impression that Colourpop is great at eyeshadow but would probably be really bad at mascara.
They proved me wrong! This stuff is brilliant. Over the years, my lashes aren’t as thicker or as long as they used to be. I get tons of length from this formula and does of volume! I wouldn’t say it curls but I’m just fine with fuller, longer lashes. The downfall would be it can be a pain to remove but on the upside it wears like a champion without smudging, smearing, or flaking through the entire day.
At $9 bucks it’s a total win! If you need an inexpensive mascara pick I’d highly recommend this one. Thank me later!
