Review: MAC Extended Play Lash Macara


Hey Gals! MAC just came out with a new mascara called the "Extended Play Lash" so I had to pick it up and try it. I have never liked MAC mascaras in the past because the formulas were too heavy for my lashes and did nothing for them. What made me want to try the new one was the brush. When I pick mascaras out, the first thing I look at is the brush. 


The brush is long and thin with lots of short bristles. This mascara is also a light weight formula which usually works well with my lashes. This mascara claims to curl, lift and define lashes with a glossy shade of black. They say that this mascara is a 16 hour wear and smudge proof. 


I have been using this mascara for a couple days now and I am pretty happy with it. It really fluffs out my lashes and also adds length to them as well. The formula is not to heavy and "wet" and it doesn't seem to clump. It's very easy to take off at night with my MAC makeup wipes. I don't like the "tube" mascaras because they are usually messy when they get wet. I am glad this mascara is not like that. 


I will continue to use this mascara just to try something new. Would I buy this again? Yes, probably. This retails for $18 in California and there is about 8 grams of product.


Has anyone else tried it? What are your thoughts? xo

Review: Eyeko Skinny Brush Mascara


Hi everyone! I have gotten a few requests to do a review on this mascara. I saw this mascara featured on Sephoras YouTube channel and it got my attention. I went to Sephora and ended up buying it. I figured, why not? Always looking for a new mascara. 

"Eyeko Skinny Brush Mascara delivers instant lengthening effects with long-term lash care. Treat your eyelashes like you treat your hair with this moisturizing formula featuring pro-vitamin B, natural oils, and waxes to prevent breakage and promote growth. " - Sephora Website


I really liked how the tube was "squishy" and I like the packaging. One thing that I thought was different was the lash guard that was included in the box. It looks like a guitar pick. You hold it against you eyelid to prevent mascara from getting on your lid. 


The wand is nice. Does it really lengthen your lashes? I would say it does add length a little bit. This mascara is similar to other mascara that claim to add tubes around your lashes for length. Personally this mascara isn't my favorite one I had tried but I will continue to use it. The only downer to this macara is the removal of it. Its a little difficult to remove this mascara off your lashes. I do find myself scrubbing it off with a makeup remover wipe. Its almost like the mascara turns hard at the end of the day. 

This mascara retails for $19 and only comes in the color black. 


Has anyone tired this mascara yet? I'm curious to see what you guys think of it.
