Finding a good mascara is like finding a good pair of shoes. You come to depend on them, trust them, and maybe even love them–so really you can compare them to a life partner, not just shoes! ;) Needless to say, a great mascara is hard to come by… Laura Mercier has a great new mascara called Faux Lash! I was provided the shade Sierra Brown for review purposes!
The packaging is her typical golden prettiness, but inside you find a FABULOUS fat wand. Laura Mercier knows the power that a pair of false lashes brings to the table and she wanted to make a mascara in the likeness. She formulated her Faux Lash Mascara to create exaggerated volume and length to create a bit of drama. The formula of this mascara is smooth, kind of thick, and glossy. It was created with a blend of waxes and no fibers whatsoever.
The brush itself has two sides. One is shorter for maximum color deposit, and the other side is longer to build up the pretty, fluffy lashes.
The color I received for review is Sierra Brown. Typically I prefer black mascaras because browns don’t typically bring too much oomph, but as you can see in the photo below… the oomph is there. You can hardly tell that this mascara isn’t black once it is built up on my lashes! Of course, for those of you that only wear black: they have a shade for you too!
Overall I give Laura Mercier Faux Lash Mascara 4.5 out of 5 stars: I do recommend picking it up to try. I would purchase this with my own money! I only removed half a star because there is slight flake off when I am building the coats of mascara. I do not notice it throughout the day, so I am only removing half a point. If it were to flake throughout the day I wouldn’t recommend it at all. Great job to Laura Mercier for creating a very nice mascara!
