Maybelline Define-A-Lash

Right, so having discovered that I actually did not own any Waterproof Mascara and was off swimming at the gym I quickly ran to my closest supermarket! My usual fav Mascaras are Lancome Hypnose/Definicils, Benefit Badgal and Clinique Long and pretty lashes but not having a stockist of any of the above handy I thought I would try Mabellines Define-A-Lash. I have very long lashes that clump easily,the description on the box sounded like it could be a cheap quick fix for my 'waterproof mascara' dilemma! Not wanting to look like I had just smeared my makeup over my face I thought I would give this a try.Im used to using Clinique Long and Pretty Lashes or Lancome Defencils to define and separate my lashes rather than build so to be fair this mascara had to live up to alot. How would I rate this mascara? Hmmmm out of 10 id give it a 5! Pros, waterproof.... ish! Separated lashes... ish! Cons, separated lashes a bit to much, I looked like I was wearing spider legs on my eyes! Waterproof, hmmmmm went into clumps and was flaking after my swim and worst of all... I have discovered I HATE the wands on Mabelline mascaras! I now remember from my younger days of why I hated Mabelline Mascaras, their wands are WAY to flexible, it feels like it is going to snap every time you put it back into the tube and in fact if I remember rightly one has snapped on me before! I have to work mascara into my lashes and do not feel like this gives you the work-ability to work into your lashes, just a bit to flexible for my liking. Anyway over all review, good if you want a cheap gym mascara that you don't really want to do alot, would I buy again..... no, again you get what you pay for, I think I paid around £6 for this!
