I have been on the hunt for a great mascara for a long time. Sadly this one did not measure up. Someone had recommended it, and her lashes looked awesome. But I found it left my eyes very dark as it was almost like the mascara was smudging onto my face. Looked like I had been crying and my makeup had stained around my eyes and gave me crazy racoon eyes. It wasnt super expensive, but I cant say it was cheap. I was disappointed that I spent that money and wont be using the product at all. I wont buy it again.

I’ve been on the look for a mascara that will give me that falsie look. I love Gosh cosmetics (you can find them at Shoppers Drug Mart) and decided to try their “Show Me Volume” mascara in Black.

This mascara comes with a thick brush that I found kind of difficult to maneuver over my eyelashes. I don’t have the best aim to begin with so I found it a bit difficult to use. Someone with more patience might have better luck with the wand.

It was a nice dark black, however I did need to put on a few layers. I did notice it was a bit clumpy, however I didn’t comb through my eyelashes before or after – so maybe that would have made a difference. I’ve had this mascara for about a week now, and I’ve noticed it’s starting to dry out already.
