You might have heard me mention my favorite Buxom Mascara (which basically inspired this entire blog) one or twenty times before. I hardly ever try other mascaras, since I’m so happy with this one. But…
Buxom came out with a new mascara, with a special “S” shaped brush, that is supposed to give lashes a “full and fanned-out effect.” That sounded pretty pretty, so I had to try it. Below are photos of my eye with both regular Buxom and new Buxom Sculpted Lash Mascara.
Can you tell the difference? I barely can.
I found the S-shaped brush kind of hard to get the hang of. I used it four times, following the enclosed instructions exactly, and I still ended up bumping my cheekbone with the mascara wand every single time. And then cleaning mascara off my face. It’s not really what I feel like doing when I’m getting ready to go out.
I mean, the formula is still great, no clumping, flaking, etc. It’s still Buxom, and it’s still fantastic. But for the effect I got, I’d rather stick with the classic. The S-brush just seems unnecessarily complicated, and I’m not getting enough of a payoff. I do intend to get paid BACK though, when I return this to the store.
I'm not a fan of all these weird new wands that they are coming out with. I still think the classic wands get the most product on those lashes.
ReplyDeleteI'm okay with the rubbery bristles, but some of these wand shapes are getting out of control!
