$22 for Mascara?

Filed in archive Beauty , Makeup on October 2, 2007

I was reading Blog for Beauty's
post on Imju Fiberwig Mascara. This mascara apparently performs magic. I mean, I've never used it, but it has to transform you into Scarlett Johansson or someone else that spectacular for that price. Do you know how many of these I can pick up for $22? Approximately 4.



No, it's not fancy and Maybelline has been packaging their Great Lash mascara in the same pink and green colors for as long as I can remember. I've been buying "Blackest Black" forever. Notice mine is not the waterproof version. I've used the waterproof before and I can vouch that it's indeed built to stand up to tears, sweat, water and a number of makeup removers. You could cry on a national television talk show after discovering your husband is in love with a transvestite dwarf who is also your grandmother's grandchild's cousin and this stuff wouldn't run. To be safe, I just stick with the regular version.

What I like about the Great Lash is that the formula seems to be the same as it was when I first started using it about 20 years ago. For the price, this is an excellent mascara. I use eyelash curlers every time I use it (though it comes in a formula with a curved brush) and get great results.

'Til next time, my pretties.
