Eyeko: London Mascara: Lengthen & Straighten Review

Hey all!! 

Today I have a review of Eyeko London Mascara: Lengthen & Straighten. I received this mascara in a Birchbox a couple months ago. I was very excited to see it in there because I love me a good Mascara. This one is priced at $28.00.

My First Impressions: aka thoughts I had while opening it

"This is in a tube... that's different."

"OH LOOK!! A Guitar pick! Wait why did they send me a guitar pick?"

"OHHHHHHH just kidding it's an eye shield to prevent smudges... Now how do I hold it?"

"Well this is just awkward."

Let's just say there is no easy way to hold the guitar pick I mean eye shield and apply the mascara. Mainly because the brush is GINORMOUS. The picture above does not do it justice. The eye shield may protect your eye but it does not protect your fingers holding it.

I feel at this point it is kind of obvious that I did not have a good experience with this mascara so I'll just say I strongly disliked it... for several reasons.

1. The brush size- it is just too big.

2. The formulation is sticky. I had to keep separating my eyelashes the entire time I had it on.

3. It gets EVERY WHERE when you go to take it off. It clumps up in little balls and gets in places you never wanted mascara to be. It went up my nose! How does that even happen!

4. I was not overly wowed once it was on. It didn't make my eyelashes look longer or straight. (not sure why anyone would want straight lashes to begin with but to each their own)

I'm sorry if this is anyones holy grail but it just didn't cut it for me. This is also the only Eyeko mascara I have tried so maybe I just need to try another style.

One mascara that I do love for lengthening lashes is Loreal Voluminous False lashes and it's just the right price!

I hope you guys found this review useful and again I'm sorry if this is one of your must have's.

Thanks for reading and until next time!!!
