What's the one thing most of us won't leave the house without? Well for me and a lot of women, it's mascara. I feel like without it I look sleepy and drab. A month or so ago I was at Sephora looking for a new mascara, and a girl that worked there told me I had to try Too Faced's Better Than False Lashes. I picked some up, but I didn't really try it until this last weekend. After getting it home I read through the instructions, and it just seemed overwhelming. I wasn't expecting one of the tubes to be a powdery like substance (it's actually fibers). Eventually I just kinda forgot I had it, and kept using my old standard Covergirl Lash Blast (If you're looking for an everyday cheap mascara, this stuff is awesome!). Then the other day I saw it in the bathroom, and thought I should finally give it a try. It is awesome!!! I probably won't replace my everyday mascara, but when I want to go a little more glam, I will definitely do this over false lashes.
Here is what I look like with no mascara...tired right!
This is the mascara/primer before I put the fiber stuff on.
With the fibers on before I put the mascara on top.
This is after I put the top coat on and with one more coat of both...
the finished result. Pretty awesome right. It totally looks like I'm wearing false lashes. It's a little strange when you take it off because it feels like you are loosing a ton of lashes, but it's really just the fibers.
I definitely recommend it, but like I said I don't know if I would use it everyday. It's $35 compared to my $7 tube of lash blast, but for special occasions or days when you know you'll be in a lot of pictures, why not!
Too funny, Jessy, I just blogged about Too Faced eye shadow yesterday! I haven't tried their mascara but now I think I need to! Your lashes look great! Like I need any more makeup.... :)
ReplyDeleteHey Ashley! I saw that! They might be rapidly becoming one of my favorite brands. I ordered the Naked palette you talked about. :)
DeleteLooks really good on you! I tried it, but the fibers kept falling into my contacts and was a mess :) Maybe one day I'll get lasik!
ReplyDeleteooh, this looks amazing! I don't wear mascara everyday but for those occasions that I want to, this might just be perfect!
ReplyDeleteOooh, you may have found my big event alternate to Bad Girl Plum by Benefit. It also uses fiber and a subtle color to make the eyes pop. Love the step by step pictures. I forwarded to my make-up obsessed friends.

Impressive lashes dear! Just look like fake ones. I wear mascara on a daily basis even if my lashes are quit dark but this will be great for big night out or special occaisions. Love it!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try this. Everyone seems to be having their lashes done but I don't want to sit for that long to get them attached. Will have to try it.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much
