Maybelline the Rocket Volum' Express Mascara Review

Brush & Application- The brush reminds me of the Covergirl Lash Blast in a way, it is a rubber brush and is large. The bristles seem to be a bit shorter than the Lash Blast brush though. Since the brush is on the larger end, I find it not as easy to coat my lashes near the inner corners of my eyes. 

Formula & Wear- The formula is a bit on the wet end, it may dry up a bit the longer it is open. The formula is more lengthening than thickening, and separates the lashes good. This mascara wears good throughout the day, although I did not test how it holds a curl. I did not notice any flaking throughtout the day, and it was easy to take off at the end of my makeup day. Keep in mind I take off my eye makeup with coconut oil.

Packaging- The packaging is fine, the colors don't bother me. The packaging starts out thin, gets thicker then thin again. There's a stopper for the product on the inside, it works fine.

Overall, I prefer the Covergirl Clump Crusher over this mascara. I feel it didn't look flattering on my lashes, it just gave them length. If you're looking for length, this may work for you.

Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara Review

Hey Guys! So this will be my review / opinion on the Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara. Let me start off by saying, I love it! :) So here you are...

Thoughts:

Brush & Application- I really enjoy the brush, it is a lot smaller than the Covergirl Lashblast mascara brush, which in my book is a plus. The brush is a rubber brush with a curve to it. This mascara is a lot easier to apply, for my eyes. I feel that it is easier to coat all my lashes, while separating them nicely, with NO CLUMPS! And gives a nice curl to the lashes.

Formula & Wear- The formula is not too wet or too dry, it is more lengthening than thickening. I personally have not used this mascara after curling my lashes, but I would assume it would hold a curl nicely. It wears good, the only complaint I have would be I find it to be a tiny bit flaky but no smudging. And it is easy to wash off at the end of your makeup day :)

Packaging- The packaging looks just like the Lashblast; but in the color lime green. The color is nice, I don't mind bright, especially with it being close to Spring. So personally, I love the color :) The packaging as a whole, it probably could be a bit more sleek, but it's no biggie.

I would recommend this mascara to anyone on the look out for a new mascara, or someone who just likes to try new products like myself!
