First impressions, Benefit - They’re Real Mascara

Now Benefit has been a firm favourite for a while now within the beauty industry. The only pitfall being perhaps the price. Whether you like it or not Benefit products as beautifully packaged and kitschy named as they may be their products are not cheap. However when they release a mascara ensuring long, thick, sexy lashes it’s seem only inevitable that the lure of purchasing the ‘They’re Real Mascara’ is just to difficult to resist. Especially when it’s being advertised behind nearly every beauty counter.
The product when purchased in sample size is the perfect size for any clutch bag and the packaging overall is sleek and grey – nothing spectacular but we’re more interested in the product inside. Benefit’s They’re Real is good due to the fact you don’t need a lot of product to make maximum impact. Thus, the application avoids being clumpy or heavy, but you can definitely notice that it’s there. Another bonus to the product is the shape of the brush which catches even the bottom lashes very well, in fact it catches lashes that you didn’t even know you had there. All in all the product looks good and transforms thin wispy lashes into darker, longer ones that are separated and curled, adding instant sex appeal to the eyes. Also another important test that this mascara passes is the one of longevity. So does They’re Real stand the test of a long, sweaty London day? Guaranteed no smeared panda eyes. In general it doesn’t move around the face, only if you rub your eyes you will get product on your hands and They’re Real is not waterproof, yet that being stand it shouldn’t put you off purchasing because it’s without doubt a high quality mascara.In terms of price, if a product is good you will more than likely end up spending a little extra. You should want to spend a little extra because these products are going onto/around your face so don’t scrimp on good quality for something that’s cheaper. Benefit are known for having pricey products and this is no exception, however in Boots and a lot of other cosmetic stores up and down the country they are offering a sample size of ‘They’re Real’ mascara for you try and see for yourself. Although it’s worth noting that when you search for reviews for this product 99.9% of them are singing praises and you can see now why it’s one of the most popular products that Benefit has put out in a while. In a few years’ time who knows? We may have found a replacement for must have mascara status and then its bye bye to Maybelline Great Lash and its beloved green lid.
