Bye Bye Panda Eyes! Smudge-Proof Volumizing & Defining Mascara is the newest mascara addition from Essence. I already tested two other mascaras that come in the same packaging, I loved the I Need a Miracle version but the What the Fake version didn't impress me so much but I still had high hopes for this new one.
The mascara comes in a bulky black packaging that is hard to store if you have a bunch of them in a container. I have said it before but the writing and the design remind me of superheroes. The packaging contains 16ml of product and costs around 3-4€. It comes with a regular wand, nothing special here.
The formula is quite thin and I need to do two coats for the effect that I wanted. It lengthens the lashes but that's pretty much it. It's not really volumizing and defining like they say. It's a tubing mascara, which means it can only be removed with warm water. It should survive sweating and crying and it does. But I did notice it can flake through the day which is not ideal if you are like me and you don't really check yourself out in the mirror through the day. It removes super easily. I remove it only with water and makeup removing cloth and it works like a dream.
The mascara didn't impress me, it's not bad and I like that it's easy to remove but I just prefer others, for example, the I Need a Miracle from the same brand.
Thank you for reading!
