   More like Stroke of disapointment…I bought this at ulta and was so curious to see how this mascara would work out after being super intrigued by the unique brush. I am partial to plastic/rubber bristles as opposed to traditional ones because i find that they give me better length and definition than the traditional brush applicators do. This had the plastic feel bristles and had one side with a shorter set of a few rows of bristles for volumizing and one side with just what looked like a large comb to lengthen. This is what got me. Ever since my favorite mascara lash stylist by maybeline and blu ray mascara by cargo got discontinued I’ve been on an endless hunt for a similar mascara with a comblike applicator so when i saw this I immediately threw it in my basket without thinking twice despite the heavy price tag. So at first try I got them nice and curled and right away upon the first swipe with the denser side already noticed that they had started clumping together! Mind you I follow all of the mascara application rules to a tea to make sure to prevent a sloppy looking application that would cause unecessary clumping and still, it did nothing with this formulation. I was crossing my fingers for the comb part of the brush to makeup for the other side to work some kind of miracle and justify the entire thing. Swiped carefully and it just made it worse… yes it added length and made your lashes look bigger but not in the fluttery and full falsie lashes kind of way that you’d want but more of the stick straight and spidery kind… despite the let down I decided to give it a good few tries before I wrote a review and returned it. It’s been over a week and I can’t say that anything has changed.. totally bummed after having such high hopes for it but it’s definitely going to get returned. Major flop especially for the $20 save it and get something else. Better yet, If you want something similar that will actually deliver results ( not to mention for a fraction of the price).. get lash sensational in the pink tube by Maybeline it’s a much better and cheaper option than this
