Amplified Lash Mascara

The expandable brush did wonders for my lashes, making them look thicker and longer (so long that they brush against my glasses, lol). It stays on really well, and the brush itself is one of my favorites (and would be even if it didn't expand). The only thing I didn't love is that it seems to flake a bit, leaving a little bit of fallout underneath my eyes. I have to clean up about 30 minutes after application but after that it's fine for the rest of the day! Definitely worth the minute of cleanup.

Is it sad that one of the top reasons I bought this was to play with the brush? Yes...yes it is... I don't think it does a terrible job at lengthening or volumizing, it just didn't 'wow' me like I wanted it to. I guess I just think if someone is going to put all that effort into making a fun-to-play-with brush then the formula should measure up to some extent as well. But sadly, it does not. Next time, I'll think more about what I want my mascara to do for my lashes and less about how it amuses me. Yeah, so I'm entertained by a tube of mascara...what?!

The volumizing function on this product is pretty good. The lengthening function makes my lashes look worse. Even when I used it in conjunction with the volume position it makes that look worse. And in my opinion, the brush expanding/compacting thing is a useless gimmick. Full review: http://amberlikes.blogspot.com/2011/12/buxom-lash-hurrah-kit-review-and-what.html

I tried this out for a good two weeks and I think it's a pretty good mascara. It did weigh my lashes a little bit and it does transfer after a while. My lashes are very finicky though so it takes a lot for my lashes to look well.
