Battle of the lashes: Day 1

Unlike some of my siblings, I haven't been blessed with super long voluptuous lashes, my lashes are fine and short, which makes me a perfect case study for a lot of mascaras which claim to volumise and lengthen lashes.

I have a few mascaras to try out as well as some false eyelashes (from Ardell). This is day 1 of my mascara testing.

I am so impressed with the Trish McEvoy Lash Curling Mascara, you can see the dramatic difference in this picture, this is with just one coat. The best part about this mascara for me is how it didn't budge, I use eye drops throughout the day and rub my eyes, with other mascaras I ended up with flakes under my eyes. Also, considering it didn't move throughout the day, it washes off so easily, it sort of peels off in tiny tubes rather than big black smudges of make up all around your eyes.

My scores for Trish McEvoy;

My scores for Mac Zoomlash;

Instant result factor: 8

Durability: 6

Removal: 5

The Trish McEvoy Lash Curling Mascara wins today's the battle for lashes with an overall score of 9/10, sorry Mac Zoomlash. You're good, but Trish is better.
