Giorgio Armani Black Ecstasy Mascara

[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] Although I’m highly seduced by the red wand and logo detailing of this luxy mascara, it’s really all about the brush.

If you have shorter lashes that are hard to coat, the slenderness of this brush is a big asset because the size allows you to get further to the base of the lash. It’s also multi-bristled so while you don’t get great dollops of mascara on application, it is precise in coating all of the lashes.

It’s also able to give good separation – no sticking-together strays. The formula and brush isn’t about volume – the design is directed at definition, length and curl. I can’t say I saw a lot of curl but then again, I didn’t put a lot of effort into the brush-hold application method. I like this as an easy, suit-all mascara that gives colour intensity on an immaculately spaced lash fringe without clumpiness or bulk. At the time of writing it’s on offer HERE for £22.50 instead of £30. Non-affiliate HERE.
