We\u2019re purists when it comes to our mascara. We like a straight wand, basic bristle-brush, black colour and a wet formulation that doesn\u2019t bleed. Easy right? So when we find a mascara we like, we never waiver. Typically.<\/p>\n
Recently, we\u2019ve taken a detour with Fenty Beauty\u2019s Full Frontal Volume Lift & Curl Mini Mascara in Limited Edition colour \u201cMi$$ Merlot.\u201d<\/p>\n
The tiny tube won us over. Not that we\u2019ve never seen a pocket-sized mascara before, we have, many times. But the appeal of the smallness never gets old. It\u2019s a good thing too, because otherwise we may not have applied the sultry, burgundy hue on our lashes. And liked it.<\/p>\n
Just as defining as our favoured black shade, \u201cMi$$ Merlot\u2019s\u201d deeply intense, yet weirdly neutral colour makes our eyes pop. Plus, the product lived up to its Volume, Lift & Curl name, doing just that with every coat we layered on. It took us a minute to get a feel for the FAT\/FLAT sided brush and worked best when we layered on the formula with the FAT and lifting side and then brushed through each set for lash definition and curl with the FLAT side. It stayed put too with a long-wear formula that\u2019s not only 100 per cent cruelty free, but can also be built up for extra nighttime drama.<\/p>\n
The \u201cMi$$ Merlot,\u201d along with a forest green hue in \u201cIvy League\u201d are limited edition shades though, so if you want to get yours on, move fast. As for the other purists out there, the mini mascara also comes in a fab true black colour, \u201cCuz I\u2019m Black.\u201d<\/p>\n
