Benefit - They're Real Mascara

There is no doubt about it that Benefit They're Real Mascara has been around many beauty blogs and there has been mixed reviews, so I was 50/50 on buying them. Benefit never really suited me but the ones who agreed with it raved about it so when Elle was handing out the mascara as a freebie I was right in there. 

Elle Magazine issued the travel size of the "They're Real Mascara" the original size costing a whooping £19.50 from Boots and Benefit. Now there is nothing I hate more than spending money on something that will not suit me, especially with the mixed review I was a bit sceptical.  


According to Benefit the They're Real mascara should; lengthens, curls, volumizes, lifts & separates. Our jet black, long-wearing formula won’t smudge or dry out. A specially designed brush reveals lashes you never knew you had!

So these are my thoughts on Benefit They're Real; 

I absolutely love the brush, plastic brushes are better as they do not clump the eyelashes. When first applied it instantly lengthened my eyelashes and separated them out just as Benefit stated. It also stayed on through the day and didn't flake off creating that panda eyes look! They were easy enough to remove with make-up remover! Although it did not provide me with the volume I wanted, even after a few coats it still didn't give me that wow factor. 


With that in mind I was a bit disappointed, I know that this was the only factor that Benefit did not achieve but if I was going to spend £19.50 it wouldn't be on this mascara. Sorry guys. 


Unfortunately I didn't have time to do some before and after pictures as I was babysitting! Again sorry! 


So I will be sticking with my current mascara! Have you tried Benefit's They're Real? What did you think?
