Don't laugh at
drugstore mascara.
It CAN be as
decent as
higher-end brands. Not always, but
some are
great. Plus, you can experiment with
several because
cheap mascaras won't break your
beauty budget.
We are a
proud, lasha-a-holic. LOL...We try them
all.
We were initially shopping around a
local Walgreens looking for
Wet n Wild's Lash Out Loud MaxVolume Plus Mascara Amp'd Black for
$5, but it wasn't
available at the time. We have sinced picked up the
bright, pink tube at
Walgreens online, and LOVE it, too.
But when we couldn't find the
Lash Out Loud, we chose
Wet n Wild Mega Protein Mascara Very Black in the
very green tube at
$1.79.
We were at first puzzled by this
unique formula, and then
pleasantly surprised. It's labeled as a
protein mascara. Acccording to the
brand, the
mascara is "enriched with
soy and wheat proteins," plus "infused with
acai oil + d-panthenol to protect and strengthen."
This is NOT a
volumizing mascara but it IS a
healthy formula.
It's a
wet-looking mascara.
Nothing harsh or
drying on
lashes. You could sleep in it, and wake up to
soft lashes. NO
breakage or
brittleness will occur.
We like to use this
Mega Protein as the LAST
layers in our
daily mascara routine. This
stuff adds a
glossy finish to our
lashes. We put this on
top of our
volumizing, lash lengthening, other mascara.
Now, if you're going for a
more natural, mascara effect, then a
few coats of this
alone, will do the trick.
Otherwise, for LESS than
2 bucks, this is a
healthy mascara, if there ever were one.
Try it!
