This is the first time i've tried this mascara, and what a difference! I'm so impressed with everything about it! I love the petite bottle that fits ito any purse or clutch bag. The brush ensures a gentle, even application and one coat is enough for WOW lashes! People kept asking me if i was wearing false eyelashes! This is a good-for-you mascara, with ingredients like aloe, wheat protein, silk and olive oil which strengthen and condition your lashes. This is one mascara you definately don't have to worry about in any weather conditions, it's waterproof and long wearing - plus i found it to be smudge proof!
