A while back, maybe even as much as 3-4 months ago, I bought the Mary Kay 'Lash Love' Mascara.
I'll admit it was a somewhat random buy, especially since it had only just been launched in the UK. I had heard about Mary Kay products before however, from Youtube and I already knew it was like the American version of Avon; a reliable company selling good quality beauty products, so I had high hopes of the mascara [black] that I had purchased.
Unfortunately, it didn't meet expectations. I hoped it would be a good quality, easy to apply mascara- the pictures on the website showed the brush to be a plastic comb with tiny teeth. Upon arrival, I was impressed. The packaging, although simple, was elegant, the mascara was an inky black shade and the wand looked like it did on the website.
However, I HATED the formula. It flaked all over my under eye area and did very little to curl/lengthen my lashes. That wasn't the worst bit though, as it was TERRIBLE to remove. And by that I mean it took a good 10 minutes of eye makeup remover, makeup wipes, and 3 different face cleansers to remove. It was horrible; it just wouldn't come off! I was terrified all my eyelashes would be pulled out...:(
Now I don't know whether this is the same for everyone using this mascara, and it could have just been a one of, where I got unlucky. But for now, I'm staying away from Mary Kay [especially the mascaras!] and going back to my faithful Body Shop one :)
Have you tried any Mary Kay products? What are you views?
