Cover Girl Lash Blast ... thoughts?

YoursEvermore · 10-26-2007, 10:24 PM

Has anyone else used this yet? And what is their verdict? I compared it to Max Factor's 2000 Calorie mascara and I'm kind of undecided. I'm going to give it a few more days/trial runs before making up my mind, though. I'm curious to see what other people thought.

One thing is for certain, though. Next to Maybelline Great Lash, Lash Blast has to have the ugliest packaging ever.

I tried it today and I think it's alright! I'll give it a few more days too! I actually really like the packaging though!! That's why I bought it! LOL

The tube is so big, though! I feel like I could knock someone out with it if I threw it at them. The orange doesn't bother me as much as the weight of the thing.

LOL! It's a self defense device!! I kind of like chubby stuff like that though, like those big chapsticks and chubby pens! I guess I'm weird like that! It is kind of odd that they would choose the size and design because it looks soo different from all of their other mascaras. I guess they're trying to stand out!

I didn't even see this in the stores yet but maybe i just overlooked or something. If there's good reviews maybe i'll have to get one.

You won't be able to miss it!! Just look for the gigantic orange tube of mascara! LOL

***puncturedskirt*** · 10-26-2007, 10:45 PM

LOL. How is that Max Factors Mascara though?
It's not the same thing obviously but i bought one of their MaxEye shadows and i thought it was crap or maybe it was just the colors i had picked.

I love MF's 2000 calorie. It's what I use when I want dark, thick lashes. Sometimes it can get a bit clumpy, but I just use a clean mascara wand (from their Lash Perfection mascara, actually -- the rubber bristle one) and comb out the clump.

I don't like their other makeup, but mascara is one thing I do use from them.

How's the Lash Perfection Mascara?

I like it. I like it a lot better than Cover Girl's Lash Exact. Weird, huh? I use it for a more natural look, since it defines your lashes so much. I haven't tried their Volume Couture, though, which is supposed to be more volumizing. I did try Cover Girl's Volume Exact and it's just "meh" in my opinion. I'll finish out the tube and that will be it for that one.

***farris2*** · 10-26-2007, 10:58 PM

havent tried it but I am having probs finding a good mascara

perlanga · 10-26-2007, 11:14 PM

I thought the packaging looked really tacky when I saw it, but that doesn't really deterr me from buying mascara.

***KristieTX*** · 10-27-2007, 05:37 PM

I haven't even seen it in the stores yet, but I'll keep an eye out. I love L'Oreal Voluminous and always end up buying it.

***Killah Kitty*** · 10-28-2007, 12:38 PM

I didnt even know CG had a new mascara out lol. I love their LE and VE though so Im going to be inclined to try it. Perfect too, I need a new mascara

Hope I see it soon
