Benefit BADgal Lash Mascara Review & Photos

Rating: 5/10

Sold: Ulta, Sephora, & Benefit

Price: $19.00

Description: “Sexy, sultry, pure unadulterated black mascara for full, voluminous lashes”

Review:

Pros

  • Did make my lashes noticeably fuller
  • It did both volumize and lengthen the lashes
  • Cute packaging and name
  • Comes in other colors

Cons

  • Not sure if it was just the tube I got, but the formula was SO dry!
  • Started to flake off right as I applied it
  • Quite expensive! Especially for the results I had! (Thank goodness, mine was a travel/sample size)

I was so disappointed with this mascara! I thought this was going to be an amazing mascara – with an amazing brush and formula. Maybe I just got a bad tube. Has anybody else tried this to say whether they enjoyed it or not?

Benefit Coralista Review, Swatch, & Photos

Rating: 10/10

Sold: Benefit Cosmetics, online; Sephora, online; Ulta, online

Price: $28.00

Description: Warm, coral pink

Review:

Pros
  • Extremely pigmented
  • Gives a sunkissed glow – a rosey coral pink
  • Great for topping over bronzer for a “just in the sun, slightly burnt” look
  • Warms up the entire face
  • Box contains a ton of product
  • Has a sheen - but not necessarily shimmer
 
Cons
  • Price is a little high – but I think it’s totally worth it! Watch for value sets with this blush in it!
