Generally, all my cosmetics are Miss Sporty or Collection 2000. I'm a classy bird! But seriously, I don't have a lot of spare cash and I wear make up about twice a week when I'm not working so spending loads on a named brand is not something I'd willingly do. Whilst Boots 17 brand is not massively over expensive, as I've explained, spending £6 on a mascara that I've never used before is a big reach for me. Luckily, due to a till error, I managed to get this mascara, a Boots meal deal AND a silver eyeshadow (also 17 brand) for just £5.50. I would've been happy to pay full price for it though - and it certainly looks the business. Whilst the pot is quite short, ...  Read the complete review

This product intrigued me due to it's unusual colour system, you see which product you use depends on your eye colour. Each version matches the colour of your eyes, so as I have blue eyes I would use the metallic blue version, now I am usually not a fan of coloured mascaras, but I did want to see if this particular range would change my opinions about them. Packaging: As this product is from 17's new "Photo Flawless" range the packaging is a classic black with gold lettering, as I have said before 17's packaging usually is very simple but there's something professional looking about this range, it doesn't LOOK cheap and plastic-y. Price: ...  Read the complete review

- - - - - - - - - - The formula - - - - - - - - - - It seems like every other cosmetics brand releases at least one new mascara every other month and after a bit all of the formulas just start to give the same results over and over again, whilst the companies rely on a gimmicky mascara wand to sell the product. To give the marketing teams their due, I nearly always fall for this trick... Boots teen-aimed range 17 have come up with something a bit different to the other 'new wonder mascaras'; Their PHOTO FLAWLESS MASCARA applies black but in certain lighting gleams with a pearlescent twist of colour [mine is in blue/black, which is ...  Read the complete review

I bought this mascara from Boots, which is the only place you can buy it from, for the small price of just £4. Anyone who buys make up knows that most mascaras you get in Boots are priced around £10 on average so £4 is very reasonable and one of the cheapest prices you will find in a Boots or probably any other department store. I bought this thinking that for just £4 I couldn't go wrong, the price is very good and this mascara definitely earns at least 2 stars for being such a bargain. The packaging is not the most interesting or appealing, it is simply just a small plain black bottle with the name of the product written across it in silver writing. The ...  Read the complete review

I only had to see the words 'Photo Flawless Lashes' on 17's new mascara, and I was intrigued. I normally stay faithful to my beloved Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara, and love the effect it has on my average lashes. However, after using my last of it , I just fancied buying something different this time. 17 promises that it's Photo Flawless Lashes will give you high definition, volume and lift. All that for £5.99 for a 8ml product seemed a little too good to be true. I chose the colour Black Copper as I have brown eyes, however, the mascara is available in Black Blue (for blue eyes) and Black Green (for green eyes). On the packaging it ...  Read the complete review
