Prestige My BIGGEST Lashes mascara

~ stashy

The Prestige My BIGGEST Lashes mascara has got be the largest mascara wand I’ve ever seen.  But it’s not about the size that matters, am I right? 😉

From Prestige Cosmetic’s site:

My Biggest Lashes creates full body, high-volume lashes in a single stroke. The instant lash drama that won’t smudge, clump, or flake.

I love me some volumizing mascaras so I was psyched to try this.  I purchased this mascara when Rexall was clearing out their Prestige displays (most locations have replaced the Prestige line with NYX – I’m a bit ambivalent about this since I do like both brands) – this normally retails for around $10 but I bought mine for $6. This mascara contains 13.6ml which is even more than the CoverGirl LashBlast mascaras with 13.1ml.

The bristles of this mascara is interesting in that it is very very dense – the bristles are not arranged in a spiral configuration (think of a pipe cleaner) like most natural bristle mascara wands.  The bristles have an irregular pattern which collects quite a bit of product, and then coats every lash with mascara, creating amazing volume and length.

Impressively, this volumizing mascara does not flake – but where it fails for me though, is that it does smudge under my eyes as it wears on in the day. By around the 5 hour mark, I’ve got a bit of panda eyes.  Here’s a comparison of the Prestige My Biggest lashes mascara wand to other large mascara wands:

It’s massive! (that’s what she said) 😛

Pros:
• Provides amazingly long and full lashes
• Does not flake or irritate my eyes
• Inexpensive price relative to the results (ie. I like this $10 mascara better than the $29 Benefit They’re Real! mascara)

Cons:
• Smudges under my eyes through the day
• Can be clumpy if the wand isn’t wiped thoroughly before application
• Due to the large brush size, is prone to touch my lids while applying, getting mascara onto my freshly applied eye shadow

Stash worthiness: 7/10

Tip: tilt your head back slightly when using a mascara with a large wand, it will reduce the risk of getting mascara on your lids.

Have you tried this mascara? What’s your favourite mascara for va-va-voom lashes?

  4. Pretty sure the bristles on that brush are actually longer than my eyelashes. 😀 That is YOOGE.

    I recently tried a (non-waterproof) sample of MUFE mascara, and the brush on that is enormous, too.

  7. Have you heard of this 3D fiber mascara from Younique? I’m totally in love! The fibers are 100% black green tea fibers and you use it with their gel. It is $29, but it gives you the volume and length plus it has totally eliminated my need for a curler (no joke check out my blog and video here: https://gratefulnerd.wordpress.com/2015/05/14/sayonara-eyelash-curler/). Plus it lasts you 3+ months and comes with a bitchin case! https://www.youniqueproducts.com/LaSarah/products/view/US-1017-00#.VVqgv_lViko No smudging! This stuff is awesome (and if it doesn’t work out you can get a full refund no questions if returned within 14 days, 80% refund after 30-90 days)!
