Recently, I have been trying out the not so hyped under £5 Collection Lash Surge mascara. Even though this product hasn't received the same amount of attention as its fellow mascaras, the duo of Sophia and Cinzia claim this mascara to be 'just so good!' (and their lashes always do look stunning.) So, of course, I had to give it a try.
When choosing my mascara, I'm not that fussy when it comes to the brand or formula, yet I practically know from the first application whether it will be a hit or miss. After staying comfortable with multiple Benefit They're Real mascara samples (I think we're all guilty of this at some point) until they were practically all too dry to use, I needed to switch up my routine, and I wasn't prepared to pay the price. At first, I was sceptical of the Collection mascara as the wand on first glance was not my usual go to. However, the wet formula is ultra black, with the brush picking up a lot of product. For me, I personally don't like too much product as it tends to clump after the first layer, not with this mascara though! This wand coats every lash perfectly, giving you a look that is both volumising and lengthening.
Normally, for me, it's very hard to find a mascara that does not smudge under my eyes or on my eyelids due to oily skin problems. So, as for longevity, I have put this mascara to the ultimate test. After wearing it to the gym multiple times and in this temperamental weather it did occasionally transfer underneath my eyes and would definitely come off if I rubbed my eyes - but that's understandable. Even though this did happen, I would still definitely reach for this mascara again, as it easily holds a long-lasting fluttery curl. This is especially impressive with my straight and sometimes hard to curl lashes.
Overall, the Collection Lash Surge has become my go-to trusty mascara, making it into my makeup bag - that must be good!
