The Colossal GO EXTREME VOLUM' Mascara Review!

Hey guys!

Maybelline's The colossal mascara is my all time favourite so when they release a mascara in the same range I HAVE to try it! So they've released the Colossal GO EXTREME VOLUM'! and I've given it a good testing. I love the original colossal mascara because the brush is ideal, the bristles are a good length and a great shape, having relatively small eyes I find it hard not to get mascara all over my eyelids but like the original this baby is doing a great job at sticking to my lashes and not all over my face! The brush is definitely one I've seen before but I like it, it's rounded a bit like a rugby ball. The wand is an extreme volume double wand, in all honesty I haven't really noticed a difference with the wand except for it being slightly more flexible. The colour is a deep enough black for me, I wouldn't say its the darkest (even though it is called very black) but it works well for my complexion.

                                       

The packaging is yellow with shiny pink writing on it- makes it so easy to find in my bag! I have noticed a tiny bit of flaking from this mascara but mainly when I try to re-apply a bit on top if I decided I wanted more after it had drying which happens with nearly every mascara. It lasts well throughout the day but is relatively easy to take off, I don't end up scrubbing my eyelashes at night. I much prefer this version to some of the others in the range. Overall I would say it's my second favourite Maybelline mascara next to the original colossal mascara. I would rate it at 8.5/10. I would definitely pick it up again! You can get it here. P.s for those who like waterproof mascara's you can also pick it up in a waterproof version too!









Have you tried this mascara? Let me know what you think!

Maybelline- the Rocket volum' express Review!

In the last few months I have discovered some pretty good mascara'a from the highstreet? (drugstore). One of my favourites is the Maybelline falsies and colossal one. But when I saw their latest launch which included the Rocket volum' express I didn't hold out much hope because the brush looked similar to the Maybelline One by One mascara which I didn't like at all! I tend to buy mascara with bristles which aren't plastic, basically mascara's unlike this one. But I really like it! As you can see from the photo's below the result isn't too bad, actually it's pretty darn good!
The packaging is standard for Maybelline mascara's, which is nice, not really much to say about it.
I'm only wearing the mascara on my upper lashes here.

Doesn't my eye look scary without mascara?! hahaa, 



My eyelashes are really fair and there aren't that many of them, as you can see. This mascara seperates well, darkens them wonderfully and gives pretty good volume. The only thing that isn't the best is the curl but because I have such small eyelids if they do curl to much they leave mascara marks on my eyelids- attractive eh?

But all in all I give this mascara a good 8/10! It's on offer in Superdrug at the moment aswell- £5.99 instead of £7.99 which it is normally. I will more than likely re-purchase this once I finish it. You can also pick it up in Boots and more than likely most supermarkets that sell maybelline.

What is your favourite mascara?
