This weekend marked the 1st Birthday of Benefits much hyped They're real mascara. To celebrate, you can pick up the special set which includes a full sized and a mini mascara, for the price of a normal full sized product.
I'm an absolute mascara horder, I have so many, I change them up weekly, so I held off buying it until recently, but using my Boots points, I finally caved in! (Yes, I have a problem!)
'It's the mascara that's beyond belief! This jet-black mascara lengthens, curls, volumises, lifts & separates lashes for a spectacular "out-to-here" look.'
If any of these happen on my short, stubby lashes then it will be nothing short of a miracle!
No coats
The brush is a plastic, short bristled comb, with a spiky ball on the end. I'm not normaly a fan of these brushes but it really worked to separate and coat my lashes with the product.
The product is quite a wet formula which seems to take ages to dry, and I'm concious of it as I carried on getting ready. It doesn't seem to flake to much, it even stayed put when my eyes were streaming after getting my eyebrows threaded! I even wore it in the sun yesterday, and most mascaras run under my eyes but this didn't thankfully, but I can't wait to test it out at work for a full day!
I still think the £18.50 is quite a steep price tag, but it is a high quality mascara, with sleek packaging, and as I spent my Boots points, this was a massive treat for me :)
You can pick this up from Boots counters as part of the set for £18.50, or buy online at Boots.com where unfortunately you don't get the deal but I feel its still worth it!
What do you think...can you believe 'They're Real'?
I bought this and at first I was really disappointed with it, it literally clumped my lashes together so badly it looked like I had about 3 in total! But one of my friends advised me to leave it a couple of days so I did and it's sooo much better now that it's dried out slightly! I think I will buy the anniversary set while this offer is on! xx

It does need to dry out a bit, but I do love it - get so many compliments, especially as I normally have short lashes!! Xx
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the price, but as a treat it's great, that's why I spent my Boots points, I do love the Maybelline falsies, that's my everyday product! Xxx
