Just Mascara

Product: Dazzle Lash (in Black Dazzle)
Made by: MAC Cosmetics
Price: $12.00

The product description on the MAC site says that Dazzle Lash mascara...

...instantly creates a starburst dazzle effect. The trick lies in a new compact-sized, slightly sculpted brush applicator that singles out and pushes lashes to go bigger, bolder, longer, with a plush, glamorous curve.

It sounds very exciting, right? But I have to admit to disappointment upon receiving this product. It is ultimately just another mascara. The wand is nice, but nothing really special. The sculpting must indeed be "slight" because I can't really see what they mean. And I didn't notice a "starburst dazzle effect." (Admittedly, I am not sure what they mean by that either.) That's not to say it isn't nice mascara, but it is just as nice as any of my other preferred mascaras.

The mascara itself is a nice, rich black color. It applies thick, but not too clumpy. One coat was enough for a pretty natural look and 2 coats was slightly more "made-up" looking. If you happen to be shopping in MAC and need mascara, go for it, but if you have a brand you already love, don't switch for this one.
