First Review! Bourjois "Volume Clubbing" mascara in black



So, this being my first review, you'll need to bear with me!
I purchased the volume clubbing because the packaging is pretty and bourjois was having a promotion.
Second best mascara decision I have ever made in my life. I love this mascara nearly as much as I love my Modelco Lashxtend, which is my holy grail, and that's saying something.
While it does have an oddly shaped brush, once you get the hang of using it, and work out that gorgeous lashes don't come without a bit of effort,you'll be very pleased.
When I first applied it i was digusted, wtf was with ym clumpy lashes and why does the brush look so gross?
But then I whipped out a disposable spoolie and lo and behold, I had stunning, perfectly black, thick, sexy eyelashes.
The colour is great (I can't wait to buy other colours! I wonder if it comes in blue?), it has NEVER ever ever flaked on me and i wear it for like 10 hours a day, doesn't smudge unless you like, rub your eyes five seconds after applying, and it doesn't flatten my eyelashes(ruin the curl, that is)

Overall I give it a 4/5, losing half a point because of the rally obese packaging whcih takes up alot of room, and another half a point because of the fact i have to comb out my lashes.
Price is about a 3/5 because DAMN! here in Australia this stuff is like $25. I know it doesn't sound like alot but when you're trying to save ten thousand for makeup school? Yeah, every cent counts.

So I hope my review helped you girls out, and I'll be reviewing all my holy grail products soon :)(especially lashxtend. which i love SO MUCH)
