Beauty Review: Maybelline Define a Lash Mascara

A few months ago I purchased Maybelline’s Define a Line Eyeliner, and had awesome results with it. I was so pleased with the liner that I decided to try out the Define a Lash Mascara, hoping for the same luck. Unfortunately, the mascara didn’t quite live up to the hype I had in my head. While it’s not a bad mascara, I didn’t have to deal with any clumps or anything like that, it just didn’t give any sort of oomph. I bought the black, but it still barely tinted my lashes, and while maybe it lengthened them a little, it wasn’t a difference maker and seemed to wear off within a few hours. I started using this mascara on my light makeup days, when I just wanted a little something to coat my lashes. So if you are looking for a product to really give you length, this is not the one for you.

Beauty Review: Maybelline Define-a-Line Eyeliner

Maybelline has been my go-to makeup line for the last few products I have bought, especially when it comes to eyes. Recently, I picked up their Define-A-Line eyeliner, and am very impressed by the results. The first thing I noticed with this eyeliner was how smooth it went on. No hard pressing, no going over the line multiple times, just one swipe and I get a perfect line. The second thing I noticed was how long lasting it was. This eyeliner stays on from when I first apply it in the morning, all the way until I take it off before bedtime. My only complaint is a very common one with eyeliner that is applied to the upper lash line: it smudges above the eye. A few times a day I have to wipe the smudged liner off, but it comes off quickly and easily, so it’s not too terrible. The liner also comes with a built-in smudger, so you can easily have a more relaxed look if you choose. Overall, I really love this product and will definitely be buying it again. I think the next mascara I will try will be Maybelline’s Define-A-Lash Lengthening Mascara. Crossing my fingers for the same great results!
