REVIEW: BENEFIT BADGAL MASCARA


I have been meaning to do this review for quite a while- as you can see from the mucky mascara tube, this mascara has been well used! I actually won 9 mascaras from Benefit during their Roller Lash campaign, so I have been very lucky to have been able to try all of their mascaras over the past few months.
 
Does it work?
Bad Gal has always been a favourite of mine as I find the issue with my lashes isn't the length- its the volume, and Bad Gal is just perfect for this. I would say Roller Lash and They're Real do both, so it really does depend on what look you want to achieve.
 
The brush
The brush is a topic of huge debate when it comes to mascara- big, small, plastic, bristles, shape... the list goes on. This one has a medium sized brush with a simple shape, so although you may not be able to get right in the corners, it still does the job.
 
Is it really waterproof?
Yes. 100%. Although many mascaras claim to be waterproof, lets be honest, the majority aren't. But as I wore this mascara on holiday whilst on a jet ski ride I was astonished to find my mascara stayed well put, I need no more convincing.
 
How long does it last?
If I am honest, I do wear quite a lot of mascara- and this one has lasted me a month (daily wear). Otherwise I would say this mascara would last you 2-3 months, it really just depends on how often and how much of it you are applying.
 
Price
Okay, Benefit isn't cheap- but we all know that, right? It retails for £17.50, although slightly cheaper if you buy it from Feel Unique, which is still hugely pricey for a mascara. However if you would like to use it for a special occasion or a holiday perhaps it is definitely worth the investment- as for me I use way too much mascara to even think of buying this on a regular basis.
 
 
Overall I was pretty impressed, so if its in your budget, go for it!

  2. I didn't really get on with this mascara and agree it's quite pricey! I love MAC's mascara as it last ages and is so volumising! xo

  3. Amazing that it stayed put on a jet ski ride! You're right most waterproof mascaras aren't actually waterproof. xx

  4. I haven't tried Bad Gal but I swore by They're Real for so long that I'm sure I would love it. Another one added to the wishlist :)
