Usually, I bypass mascara testing because I can only trial on my bottom lashes – I’m really happy with what I currently use (variously, Clinique or a Boots No.7 that give good definition) so there’s never any need to branch out, so to speak. But, brands keep on bringing out these two step mascaras which are built for volume, so I thought I’d give it a go. Often, the white ‘base’ coat can set like concrete, so yes, you’ll get massively big lashes but they’re so stiff and immobile that you can practically hear them clunk when you blink. So, the difference – in my testing – that I can find with the L’Oreal Paris False Lash Superstar Mascara is that the base allows lashes to stay flexible and lighter feeling and with the black top coat applied, remain softer than others I’ve tried. The biggest bonus, I think, is that both the top and bottom coat give good separation, so your lashes don’t just disappear into one big, fat clump.
L’Oreal Paris False Lash Superstar LinerI’m so useless with felt tip liners – I’d love to say that I had more success with this but I just have to accept that it’s me not them in this particular scenario. However, the L’Oreal Paris False Lash Superstar Liner will be lid lining joy to those who’ve mastered the technique. A flexible, tear drop shaped nib means you can go fine or go fat – combining the two, the L’Oreal Paris False Lash Superstar Mascara and the Liner will do those Kardashian style eyes in a nano second.
They’ve both already launched, but I’ve found them on Boots as a set with the Mascara and the L’Oreal Paris Nude Palette for £19.99 HERE (saving a tenner if you bought them separately). They don’t seem to be on the Boots site individually yet though so you might have to look in store.
