Oh, Benefit! Not only do you seem to read the beauty part of my brain, but you also spoil me absolutely rotten. I was very lucky to have a wonderful vanity case of gifts delivered to my door, including a wonderful personalised eye mask, pot of It's Potent! eye cream, a book of cocktails and the incredible new release, Rollerlash included with the latest issue of Elle magazine.
Needless to say, I was super excited to try this mascara! Benefit mascaras are my thang so the news of a brand spanking new release had got me all fired up! The retrotastic packaging is gorgeous but the real star is the revolutionary brush. It's inspired by hair rollers, with a curved design and miniscule rubber hooks worked into the bristles to hook and curl lashes as it applies.The good news? It really works! I was genuinely blown away by the difference one coat made to my lashes. I apply it slowly, curling the brush as I go and watch as my lashes lengthen before my very eyes. It's like magic! The idea is that you never have to use eyelash curlers again (Benefit included a pair wrapped in biohazard tape!) and I can confirm that the length and curl it achieves is remarkable!
One coat is enough to create a really dark, dramatic look. I find it looks best without eyeliner as this allows the lashes to really show off all their glory! Fans of They're Real will be glad to hear that Rollerlash has all the longevity but removes really easily!
If you want to try Rollerlash yourself, you can pick up a sample with Elle magazine on sale now or wait until the 12th February and buy the full size product when it hits the shelves. Either way, you won't regret it!
I don't know about you, but I'm just really excited to see what Benefit pull out of the bag next!
I definitely need to get my hands on Elle for this - I'm a big fan of They're Real and have heard mixed thoughts on RollerLash, I might have to do a 'vs' type post!

Oh I wrote a comment and it vanished! Sorry if it posts twice! The wand looks amazing, so many have tightly packed bristles that make it all clumpy, but that looks great. It looks so good on you too, I might have to pick up a copy of Elle!
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing!! You are so lucky you got that case! x

That little pink case of goodies looks Devine! I was lucky to get a copy of Elle and my free sample, although struggling to get a second copy. I've tried it and will be doing a review. Looks great on you and great review.

I'm so in love with this mascara! I can't believe how good it is! I've never had such long, curled lashes in my life- even with the use of an eyelash curler! I'm already a big fan of They're Real, but I think this one is replacing it as my new go-to mascara. Can't wait for it to launch. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, the wee vanity case is absolutely amazing, such a gorgeous thing to arrive at your door! Lucky :)
ReplyDeleteI was really impressed with this mascara. I have very flat eyelashes that I'd have to use a curler for every time I put on mascara, so this is a wonderful invention. Might actually save up and get the full sized one when it comes out! xx
I don't normally get jealous of PR samples, but that case! So cute! I've tried this (the mascara) a couple of times of far and I'm a little unsure. I find it quite clumpy to begin with so I have to spend a while combing it through and I don't find that it curls my lashes very much. I do find that it makes my lashes almost scarily long though x

I am so jealous of that gift pack. Holy Moses it's amazing! That last picture is probably going to give me nightmares though ;) Xx
ReplyDeleteSo nice that they sent you all of that! I've never tried any benefit products before. I think I should soon!

I haven't actually tried many Benefit products (!), but I've been looking for a new mascara for a while now so think I might pick up the sample size with Elle and try it for myself!
