    I received a sample of this mascara from Sephora. It is not my fav. I find it smudges too easily, especially if you have oily skin. I also found it didn't hold a curl very well. I won't be purchasing the full size. This is a higher end brand mascara, but I don't think it's worth it. Save your money on this one, there are many drug store brands that are far more effective.

    I was really excited when I got this mascara ( I usually don't pay more than about $15 for a tube) and thought it would be fun to try an more expensive one. I figured if the quality is there it would be worth the extra money.
    I was let down... I found that it dried too fast and made my lashes all stick together. It looked like I has six fat gloopy eyelashes (sexy!) On top of that it flaked really quickly and made a mess under my eyes. I'm hoping that I got an old tube or something, because I have heard so many great things about Benefit products, but this kind of makes me want to avoid them... or at least their mascara.

    I've read about this mascara for a while and had high hopes for it. I was so excited when I had finally bought it.
    The name is fun and the container is big. When opened you can see how huge the wand is, which does prove to have its problems. At some times, the wand is just too big (on one occasion I accidently got mascara on my nose!), and some people who I've talked to about this have agreed with me. Although the wand looks impossible to use, after a bit it's easy to handle.
    I wouldn't recommend this to someone with light lashes as it may look a bit odd. The mascara is incredibly dark and this (it's probably best to brush through them with an eyebrow comb in order to separate clumped lashes.
    The mascara lasts for a whole day and is easy to remove (I use clensing wipes), however it isn't waterproof (which I learnt when I got pushed into a pool).
    It is a bit pricey for a mascara so I would only recommend that you buy it if you intend to get your money's worth (and don't pump the wand in and out of the mascara, it will only cause it to dry out faster!!!).

    Benefit BadGirl Mascara is yet another product to hit the shelves that has decent performance but in relation to the price it's hardly worth the expense.

    The product, applies on the thicker side of the mascara world and makes it difficult to apply a second coat without getting that "It's obvious I'm wearing lots of mascara" look.

    A comparable brand that out performs BadGirl at a much better price range is Almay's One Coat Triple Effect Mascara.
    Both BadGirl and One Coat have large application wands which are my favorite in a mascara.
    Both BadGirl and One Coat don't smudge easily and have good coverage.

    However, where BadGirl falters is the excessive dose of mascara on the wand in an attempt to mimic the "Big Full Lashes without False Lashes"

    Almay also delivers vitamins to nourish your pretty little lashes.

    Both remove easily with a gentle gel or cream eye make up remover
