MAKE UP | Bourjois Volume 1 Seconde mascara



I will admit it... I'm a mascara whore. I do love the Green People Volumising Mascara a lot but it isn't readily available in stores. My replacement? The Bourjois Volume 1 Seconde mascara.* I've been wearing this mascara every single day and I've fallen head over heels in love with it. First of all, the brush. It's been specially developed by Bourjois and it takes its inspiration from professional round hairbrushes. It uses small wraparound spheres and straight bristles to coat the lashes, define each individual lash and create instant volume. 

The mascara itself uses three active lashmorphing ingredients to give an immediate thickening effect and the carnauba, bee's waxes and jojoba ester ensures volume is delivered right through the ends of each lash. The mascara claims to last 16 hours on the lashes (and there's also a waterproof mascara claiming to last 24 hours). I can't say whether or not this claim is true as I don't wear make up for that long, but I've had no problem with the mascara disappearing midday, and it holds a curl nicely throughout the day. The proof is in the images above; it's a bloody good mascara and one that I will without a doubt be repurchasing again.

You can buy this mascara here where it retails for £9.99 (and at the moment, Bourjois have a 2 for £14 offer on a lot of their products).

What's your favourite mascara?
