Collection 2000 Extreme Coloured Lengthening Mascara - Review and Swatches

I've had these for months but never got around to reviewing them, sorry!

Top to bottom: Purple, Teal, Blue, Black.

Blue wand.

(Greasy bug eyes!) Top to bottom: Teal, Purple, Blue, all with 3 coats.

Price: £2.99

I love the packaging and of course, the price. That's all I like though I'm afraid. The formula is far too dry. It looks and feels like a mascara I've used for a few months and am about to throw away. I couldn't have received a bad one because all four are like it. Because of the drying formula, the colour pay off isn't very good and my eyelashes clump together. I have seen some positive reviews on them but I personally don't see anything good about the formula. It's annoying because I really want these to work! Look how amazing the blue on the wand looks; I want that colour to transfer to my eyelashes.

    I like them but probably would be scared to wear Teal out as its soo light. But i like the purple the most makes your pupils look dark!

    Thanks for the honest review. I would love to be one of those people who can use any mascara but my lashes are quite short so i need a super lengthening one or else i might as well not bother xx

    i tried this in black before you did this blog, and i have to agree. They clump like crazy, are almost impossible to remove and are crazy dry
    :(
