Hello!

Welcome back to our blog, now you know a little more about us we can actually start getting into beauty! Today we thought we'd do a battle, a battle of the mascaras. We were originally going to do a review on a beauty products however we didn't both have the same products so we decided to just compare and contrast the same brand mascara against each other. Elise will be fighting for the Maybelline Colossal Go Extreme Leather Black and Tia will be fighting for the Maybelline New York Define A Lash Mascara. So let's get into the battle!

Volume-
Elise- Although the mascara does give some volume, it doesn't really do the perfect job. The mascara does apply very thick, however your lashes do not look really volumised, which for me, is a masisve let down.

Tia - The define a lash maybelline mascara gives so much volume to the mascara and is not so over powering and flaky. It is light, not clumping and gives an overall nice look.

Applicator-
Elise- I'm not actually quite sure how to describe this. The wand looks a little straight but it is actually curvy, which makes it easier to apply. The wand is designed for easy application, however I always find it a little tricky to apply, and 9 times out of 10, end up getting it around my eyes.

Tia - I absolutely love the applicator of my mascara. It is straight however has amazing grip and does not cause the mascara to turn the eyelashes clumpy most of the time however if you put too much mascara on the applicator it turns slightly clumpy. I would rate the applicator 9 out of 10.

Clumps-
Elise- This is the BIGGEST downfall to the mascara. I find the formula a bit to watery (can it be watery😂) it's very sticky, and kind of makes you look like you have like 4 eyelashes. I'm not sure if I'm just applying it really wrong, or if anyone else has had problems. I also find if I'm not careful I can get large clumps at the end of my eyelashes, which fall off during the day. Not a good look

Tia - As I have mentioned a lot above😂my mascara is very good at not making your eyelashes look clumpy however if you overpower the amount of mascara being put on to your eyelashes it may go a bit clumpy but I don't overpower my lashes with mascara.

Overall look-
Elise- I do like this mascara because it holds throughout the day, as well as making my eyelashes much longer. However the way it apply's and can begin to look, makes me like it much less. In the future personally I would try a different formula and wand, just so that my eyelashes have more volume and do not stick together as much.

Tia - the overall look to my mascara is very light and gives such good volume to my lashes and makes my lashes look noticeable :) However I would change the fact that if you put too much on that it does go quite clumpy. I love to try different mascaras and have so many! The overall look is noticeable but not to wild😂and looks very neat.
