My Review: Benefit Roller Lash Mascara

February 19, 2016

roller lash mascara

Remember that episode of Sex and the City where Carrie gets in trouble for smoking and screams, “I HAVE AN ADDICTION, SIR!” ?? Well, that’s basically me at the register every time I buy a new mascara. I hate to admit it, but I buy new mascara when I get bored of an old one, even when I haven’t finished the tube! I buy new mascara just because the brush is a crazy shape and its called something funky like “Spider Venom Lash” (fictional mascara name). I’ll admit, I bought Roller Lash by Benefit because of the pretty packaging.  Come on, its Benefit. The packaging is like a siren calling you, “you neeeeeeed meeeeeee, I’m prettyyyy…”

I can honestly say that Roller Lash by Benefit is one of the few mascaras that I have EVER completely finished and purchased multiple replacements for. This is quite possibly my favorite mascara ever. It curls and lengthens, while staying defined. My lashes stay separated and do not clump. It also does not flake throughout the day, which is a mega bonus.

Another plus is that you can apply it in the day and go over it later at night and it still doesn’t look clumpy.
