Big Fake mascara


When I saw Collection 2000 mascara in my local Boots at a price of £4.99 with a free waterproof liquid eyeliner I thought I may as well give it a try. Now I'm not usually a fan of the 'lower end' makeup brands but at this price it was worth a try.
First up the mascara claims:
"va va voom to lashes without the fuss of false lashes...double your lash length in one fell swoop"
My Verdict:
The brush- I found the actual brush applicator was too large for my liking this made it a little tricky to apply the mascara and not as prescise. Also it was a struggle to apply mascara on the bottom lashes.
The colour- The colour I went for was black, it was a dark black and did cover the lashes perfectly.
Length and Volume- I applied two coats of this mascara and I felt like I needed more although I think more coats would have a very heavy effect on the eyes. I topped up with my usual mascara and don't feel I had anymore length/volume than I usually do.
Overall: I wouldn't repurchase this product for the simple fact that it doesn't do what it says on the tin. And I DON'T like that!
