    This mascara is amazing, volumizing, and defiantly worth the money! It is a good choice for those who have shorter, thinner lashes. While you can make your lashes long and voluminous, you can also make them look more natural, and that is why Bennifits They're Real! Mascara is worth your money!

    Got this in the Sephora birthday sample a while back but not sure what the hype's about. Overpriced and definitely does nothing for my eyelashes. Ive used drugstore brand mascaras that are wayyy better. Pretty sure everyone will know my eyelashes "are real" when I wear this because there's no added volume, length or colour! lol

    I love Benefit cosmetics. The packaging is fun and the product is amazing. This mascara does exactly what it says it’s going to. It lengthens, volumizes, stays all day without running or smearing and keeps the lashes separated pretty well since the wand is hard plastic instead of fibrous. The brush is unique because it’s got firm bristles all around so you can separate your lashes easily and it helps you to layer the product evenly. I’m no mascara expert, but I think this one is pretty great. Worth every penny.

    I love this Mascara, I feel it's the best on the market that I've tried. Although it is very pricey and not particularly in my budget, it was worth every penny that I spent! It absolutely lengthens and Volumizes my lashes and creates an amazing false lash effect without the hassle of the glue!

    This mascara is not water-proof but extremely water resistant, which is the main thing that stood out to me. I liked that it didn't rub off as soon as water got on my lashes, but that also made it tough to remove without eye makeup remover. It goes on nicely and is great if you're looking for something that is not overly dramatic, but that adds length and volume and reaches all your lashes quite evenly (since i haven't found a mascara that is totally clump free). However it's pretty expensive so based on the price I wouldn't recommend it.

    Love this mascara. Gives length and thickness and doesn't clump. It lasts all day and isn't a pain to take off at night!

    How this is the best selling mascara I will never know. It made me look like I had 5 eye lashes..not a good look.
    I think it works well with those who already have mega long lashes but for those who don't, it could just end up looking too separated. It's very hard to take off as well. They just came out with the They're Real remover so that would work better than scubbing until your eyes burn.

    Not worth the price in my opinion, it goes on smooth and really adds a lot to length but it makes lashes look like spider legs. Doesn't do anything for thickening the lashes and without that it just looks tacky and cheap. If it's going to look cheap I'd prefer not to spend $25 on it.

    I like this mascara because it suits my preferred qualities of a mascara, with it giving off a very dark colour to it and how it makes my eyelashes look almost doll-like. One of my favourites.
