At the moment, I’m obsessed with Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara. I actually have a few back ups of it, because it was on sale and I cannot pass up a great sale. But now it seems like everyone on the internet is talking about Maybelline Colossal Mascara. It’s the best thing since sliced bread they say and boy did I listen. I was at CVS this weekend and since it was buy one get one 50% off I picked up two of them. I got home and eagerly tried out the Colossal and was very disappointed. My lashes were longer but kinda stringy looking and it got clumpy pretty fast. It also smelled really bad. Yuck! I’ll stick with my Cover Girl Lash Blast thank you very much.


So today I decided to take pictures with Colossal on one eye and Lash Blast on the other. It was hard to get a picture of my own lashes, but you get the idea. And just so you know, the Colossal photographs much better than it looks in real life, trust me.

So which mascara do you think looks best on me? Have you tried them? What were your thoughts?

Both Mascaras are available at CVS for around $6.99

What they say:

Get a blast of lush, volumized lashes! LashBlast’s patented volume-boosting formula and patent-pending brush are designed to max-out each and every lash, leaving you with the ultimate big lash look. Now in waterproof, too!

What we say:

I tried this mascara once before several months ago and wasn’t that impressed so I tossed it and continued to use my Loreal Voluminous. Then I heard several celebrities including Keri Russell say this was their favorite mascara and decided to give it another try. Thank goodness I’m easily persuaded because this is now my favorite mascara of all time (even more than Dior Show and Loreal Voluminous). I’m not sure what the problem was the first time I purchased this (other than the fact that this time I purchased the waterproof formula) but I’m so glad I decided to give it another try. It really does give you that big lash look. Another great thing about this product is that you can apply several coats of this and your lashes will still be soft. I LOVE this mascara. If you haven’t tried it yet you must !!

Retails for :$6.99 at Target/Walmart
