Most of my friends aren't really interested in make-up, so I was pretty surprised when I heard one of my friends rave about Essence mascara a little while back. We were standing in the middle of a drugstore when she suddenly pointed at all of the different mascaras from Essence and told me that they were the BEST out there. I was actually looking for a new budget-proof mascara, so I decided to look at what they had to offer. I was looking for a black mascara that would help me to curl my lashes, so eventually I picked the 'All eyes on me' mascara for 1,99 Euro. My friend nodded with approval and told me that she has been using Essence mascaras for as long as she can remember and that they lasted like a year or so. (Errr...yeah, did I mention that she isn't very interested in make-up? As far as I know, mascara only lasts three to six months...). Anyway, let's continue with the review! :P








I've been using this mascara for a couple of weeks now, and I quite like it. It may not be the best mascara I've seen so far but I do think that it gives me a very nice 'my lashes but better' look. It's also very easy to remove and doesn't make my lashes feel hard. Oh, and no flakes or smudges during the day! It doesn't claim to be waterproof, but I've been wearing this mascara during rainy days and it stayed in place perfectly. I wouldn't recommend this if you're looking for something dramatic, but if you want a nice & subtle mascara you might like this one a lot!
