Lancôme Hypnose Cell Regenerist Mascara Review ✩

I was recommended this by a friend of mine who's a synchronized swimmer (she would have to wear makeup that stayed on in the water) who said Lancôme has the best mascaras. This is going to be a very quick review. The day after I bought it, I put it on in the morning, realising the very strong smell of roses of this mascara. After a few seconds my eyes started to water and feel sore. I did use it about two days in a row, and then decided throw in the towel. The perfume was so powerful that I simply couldn't use it any more. It made my eyes feel dry and sore and water up randomly during the day and I was so upset that such an expensive high end mascara would fail me so much. The only pro is that it had decent staying power.

Not at all a recommended product for sensitive eyes.

Sephora Lash Plumper Review ✩✩✩

I've been using this for quite a few weeks now and I think it retails at about €10.
I got it in brown to use it as a daytime mascara, and it's honestly not fantastic.
It doesn't get lumpy even after several weeks which is good, although when I first used it, it was almost too smooth and not very "plumping", it actually got better with time. It starts to flake and fall out after a few hours, maybe a little longer if I use an eyelash primer, and depending on the weather and how much time I spend inside or outside. It can sometimes make my eyes quite dry, though it does not irritate my eyes really. I found that in the first few weeks it stayed on just fine, but as it gets dryer it gets flakier.
The brush is nice, it's quite big with a lot of bristles though it can make my lashes quite clumped together.
It's not great but it's not terrible. I've been using it almost every day for some weeks, although now that it's quite a bit dryer it flakes more and I may discard it one of these days...
It's fine for an affordable, day-time mascara.

Bourjois Volume Glamour Ultra Care Mascara Review ✩✩✩✩

So I've been using this mascara for several months now and can't remember how much I paid for it but I think it retails at about €10.
I got it in black, although I would have preferred it in brown(which is available), but living in Spain they tend to only carry the darker and most used colors for the cheaper brands, and so I had no choice but to get the black, ah well -_-
This does not irritate my eyes at all. It's not really ultra volumizing as the packaging claims but is perfect as an everyday mascara. It also claims to be regenerating and nourishing which I can't say I saw a difference in at all, but it doesn't dry out my lashes.
The brush is very nice, it's quite short so you get a lot of control, and it's got a lot of bristles for an even application and it helps separate your lashes.
The only bad thing about this is that it doesn't stay on all day. By the evening it starts to flake and fall out. In all fairness it's not a waterproof mascara and although the fallout is annoying, even if I get some in my eye it doesn't even hurt that much.
A recommended product.

Much Love,
