YSL Mascara

Day 1

I just received my Yves Saint Laurent Mascara Volume Effet Faux Cils. I had work so I thought it would be great to try out. Packaging is of course beautiful! I love their classic gold sleek look. But when I opened it. OMG! I love how nice it smells. It smells like perfumed mascara. Brush: Full headed brush. Formula is wet (not pasty) but glides on easily. Yes!Lashes has more volume. But no significant difference compared to my favorite Mascara (It's so Big - Elizabeth Mott). I feel they both are about the same. But the smell makes a for a elegant experience.

Off to work I go....
It smudged after wearing for 8 hours at work. I noticed it even at 4 hours of work after my first rounds with my patients. I went to the bathroom and looked at the mirror and saw that it got smudged from my lashes hitting the top part of my cheeks (lower eyes). I didn't want to clean it up or freshen with another coat. I left it as is... Even if it looked messed up.

After the second rounds. Art he end of the night... It smudged much more. I look like someone punched me in the eye. Haven't had a mascara do that to me in a long time.

A friend told me that all freshly opened mascara does that and over time it dries out a little and won't do that.

So I'm trying it again on a non-work day and see how it goes!
