Review: Benefit "they're Real!" mascara

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you are looking forward to 2013 like I am,

fresh starts and resolutions, mine being eating healthier and doing more blog posts. :) 

Starting off the New Year I thought I would do a review of a mascara I've been trying out. 

That being the Benefit "they're Real!" mascara

I have always heard amazing reviews about Benefit products, and I already own the 

Dallas blush which is an amazing colour. So this one has been on my wish list for months! 

Luckily, for Christmas my mom bought it for me (yay!) 

Its a plastic bristle brush, which isn't my ideal kind of mascara wand, but what can you do it works just the same. Something I find most fascinating about this product is the wand has a round edge

that are coated in bristles. This literally grabs the smaller lashes in the inner corner of your eye 

making your eyes look either fuller, personally. I know I have had a few experiences with trying to coat these inner lashes and ending up poking my eye (ouch!). 

The product says that the mascara will length but more importantly gives your eyes a fuller lash and   

gives the "fake lash" effect. I agree with this 100%, I have been using this product for about three weeks now and I no longer have to use an eyelash curler before applying. No more painful accidents (!) 

*Disclaimer* pardon the unruly eyebrows and lack of blemish covering up

After: 

All in all, this has definitely become my new found mascara and I definitely can see

myself repurchasing this in the future. Benefit "they're Real!" costed my mom $29.00 dollars (Canadian) and was purchased at Shopper's Drug Mart. This would be £17.99 in the UK, and $29.83 in the United States. Yes, I'm that much of a goof I did the currency. 

Ciao xo.
