I received this eye sampler as a wonderful gift at Christmas time. I
admit I love false lashes more then anything else and often wear them on the
daily, and yes I said daily. I love make up and more importantly love long
thick lashes with
a bold lip as my every day look. But sometimes I do just wear mascara and when
I am wearing mascara alone I am VERY particular on what I like and use. I have
used many, many mascaras...in all price ranges and my top three brands are
Dior, Maybelline and Lancôme. Even though those brands are the crème du crème
for mascaras in my opinion, I am always seeking and trying new brands just to
make sure I’m not missing out.
But back to the eye sampler in this set you receive
6 deluxe size samples of mascaras so you can try them all out and whatever one
ticked your fancy you receive a coupon of free full size mascara. The brands
are Shiseido, Clairns, Elizabeth Arden, Benefit, Lancôme and Smashbox. Below I
have rated the mascaras brand performance and ranked them out of 5 –

2/5
2/5
Out of all six mascara Lancome and Elizabeth Arden were my favorite.
Lancome mascara I gave a 5 out of 5 because I think Lancome is a top leader
when it comes to performance, although I didn’t pick it I got the best
results. I ended up going with
Elizabeth Arden because I was really surprise how good it made my lashes look
and it’s not a brand that I ever use. I really like the length and the fullness
I get from this product on my lashes. The wand takes a little getting use to.
The bristles pack a lot of mascara; I found it stays on all day, and gives beautiful
long sexy lashes. It is comfortable for all day wear and comes off easily at
night. 4 out of 5 stars because the bristles on wand need a little work!
Thanks for reading!
