I am going to pick this up at Nordstrom tomorrow with my Pret a Papier stuff. Thanks for the great review April!

So I checked out this mascara @ Nordies and my God is it divine! It does remind me of Benefit's Bad Gal Mascara though, with the brush and forumla. But I say this is a lot better! I semi curled my lashes since I have stubborn straight thick lashes but it also added volume w/o clumping and some length, not a whole lot. It looks very natural yet dramatic. lol Falsies w/o the falsies. You all should check this one out, I think it will be a hit!

I picked this mascara up today and the brush is giant! I am super excited to try it tomorrow with my new Pret a Papier stuff. All of the MAs were giving it huge raves.

Hmmm, all these raves are making me curious. It sounds great, but mascaras with huge brushes are difficult for me to use.

hmmm, I kinda hate huge brushes too, but if its as great as everyone says I'll live with it. And, waaay cheaper than the Dior I'm using

I don't like a huge brush either. I don't like the look of it and I'm not used to using it, but I would imagine it might be quicker to work with. I am almost out of my beloved Chanel Inimitable and I am not quite ready to dish out the $$$ for it now. Maybe I will try this since it's dirt cheap. I've never tried a Mac mascara before.

I tried this mascara today and sadly it isn't my favorite. The brush is too huge for my eyes. I don't feel like I have good control and it doesn't get the corner of my eyes very well. It wears pretty well (no flaking, etc) but I think that once I am done with this tube I won't get another.

Ugh, forget it. I will just dish out the money for my Chanel mascara. Nothing pisses me off more than a crappy mascara. I don't want to take my chances.

Ughh this is exactly what I was worried about.

I definitely can't get a "false lashes" look if I can't even control where the product is going. My lashes tend to clump quite a bit, and I see this being challenging to resolve with a HUGE brush.

I don't have too much trouble getting the inner corner lashes... maybe I'm just used to slightly-larger brushes? I just love the formula & color of this mascara.

By far the best MAC mascara to date. All MAC mascaras run on me. Even splashproof

I am a huge fan on DiorShow. Opulash reminded me a lot of DiorShow but not as dramatic, but still very good. It didn't smudge on me at all even on my bottom lashes. That says a lot because it isn't even waterproof and DiorShow non-waterproof smudges on my bottom lashes. I did a major no no last night a fell asleep with my mascara on and never smudged.


I will post side-by-side comparison here later today.
 
Hmm. I usually go drugstore when it comes to mascara because I go through the stuff so quickly, but this has me curious. Can anyone speak as to how it compares to LashBlast?

I don't have a problem with mascara's running on me and despite my fears, I just picked this up from nordstroms. I'm digging the tube. Won't be testing this out until tomorrow, though.

I will only use Diorshow waterproof - so this is really good to hear about Opulash! I do like the dramatic look of Diorshow.

You're so beautiful! I remember when you got hired by MAC as an artist - so glad you are posting again.

I LOVE big brushes, finally MAC may have done it right. I was going to buy Lancome Hypnose next but I'm going to give this a shot next weekend.
