Benefit 'They're Real' Review

The infamous mascara that is loved by a lot the Benefit ‘They’re Real’. This mascara is by far the best mascara I’ve ever tried, it may make some quite un-real claims but I feel that it does do wonders for my lashes!

The packaging looks sleek and simple; it has this rubber wand applicator and the bristles extend all the way down the wand to the end. This makes it great for catching those little baby lashes right in the corners of your eyes. It does have quite a wet formulation which I don’t mind in mascara (then again it’s not for everyone) and is very long lasting. Also I can assure you that although it’s not a waterproof formulation this mascara won’t budge throughout the day (well unless you get drenched in water!).

 

Overall? I am a big fan of this mascara and I would definitely recommend this, even if it’s the only purchase you make from Benefit. It makes my lashes look great and has amazing staying power.

The only issue I would have about this is the price at £19.50 is it quite excessive for mascara. It is a great product but I feel like there are other ‘drugstore’ mascaras that I would go out and buy before repurchasing this one such as the ‘Maybelline the rocket volum’ express’ or  the ‘Rimmel scandal eyes mascara’.

 So overall it’s a great product if you don’t mind the hefty price tag and it is worth the money, so if you get the chance- try it!

This is one of my favourite products from benefit and is available on Benefit counters, stores as well as online.

 

 

Vera Wang's Princess Perfume

Vera Wang’s Princess perfume is probably on my list of my favourite perfumes I’ve ever tried. I also think we can agree that the bottle looks stunning! I love the heart shape and the crown on top just makes it that perfect princess product, it certainly would stand out on your dressing table, although whether it’s practical for carrying in your handbag that may be debatable.

The scent is very fruity floral, with top notes of waterlily and pink guava, along with a base of chiffon vanilla (personally I love the smell of vanilla which is probably why I like it so much!).

 

 

It’s a product that definitely looks like it’s made for a princess and the scent I love. It’s a very playful almost sexy scent that I think is perfect to transition from day to night. I like that it’s quite a strong scent and will linger on the skin and last for the day (you may need a little top up if necessary though) which is really what we want from a perfume, right?

I would definitely recommend this, if you get the chance- try it! As I absolutely love it!
