Advantages: It's all good!

Disadvantages: None at all!

Having purchased several mascaras over the past few months and being dissapointingly unimpressed by all of them (I direct you to my reviews) I had low hopes for this one. But I was really surprised and am so glad I decided to pick one up in a rush through boots one day!

The mascara comes in a readily identifiable bright yellow tube - great for those fumbling around the bag moments when you're out on a Saturday night. The brush is great - it's not one of those new-age comb things you seem to get these days which are absolutely rubbish - just a classical mascara brush. When applied, it goes on very evenly and separates all the lashes - no clumps or clogs of lashes stuck together. It dries nicely too so that if you want to apply another coat, it goes on just as smooth and doesn't start to cake.

Gives either a really natural, light look with just one coat, or a more heavy, dramatic evening look if you apply it more generously.

Lasts really well and it doesn't flake off onto your undereye at all so no panda eyes! Easy to remove too with a little makeup remover as it's not waterproof.

Very reasonably priced too, especially if you get it on offer!

Summary: Best mascara of the bunch!
