Maybelline's Lash Sensational Sky High mascara delivers full volume and limitless length. Long lasting mascara delivers full volume and limitless length. And then, a day earlier than anticipated, it dropped through my letter box, and I was totally unprepared.Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara from Maybelline New York, is a lengthening and volume mascara for a sky high lash impact from every angle. I wanted totally lightweight length, a wand that would fan my thick lashes out into something softer, and a formula that wouldn’t smudge but also washed off with ease. My expectations were (pun totally intended) sky-high, but history has taught me not to get my hopes up. While waiting for the mascara to arrive, I thought long and hard about what I really wanted from it. After all, everyone I had spoken to told me that Lash Sensational Sky High was, without a shred of doubt, the very best mascara to have ever been made. But did it make lashes seem natural? Absolutely not.Įver the curious beauty journalist, I still wanted to try it for myself and deliver a totally honest review (without any mascara bias whatsoever). Sure, in comparison to other formulas, the results weren’t quite as clumpy. But the truth is, to me, the super-full lashes I saw plastered all over the internet still looked heavy. In all of my years testing and trialling every makeup product that hits the shelves, I had never witnessed IRL results quite like it. People’s lashes looked almost impossibly long, show-stoppingly bold, and dramatically full-so much so that even I could understand why this £10 mascara was causing such a stir. Before-and-afters clearly showed that this mascara meant business. ( Victoria Beckham Beauty, here’s to you.) With all of this in mind, when I saw the recent social media frenzy over Maybelline's Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara, I was totally disinterested.Īll over my feed, videos showcased dramatic lash results. (Is it really so much to ask?!) Because of my apparently unique set of lash needs, I find myself hating virtually every hyped-up mascara that comes my way, and instead, I cling to understated formulas that give barely-there results. In its very nature, mascara is heavy, clumpy, and attention grabbing, but I like my lashes to be more natural, delicately framing the eyes in a way that opens up my whole face. All I really want are for my lashes to be lifted and fluttery, but achieving such results through mascara, I have learned, is impossible. So while I don’t find myself reaching for mascara every single day, on days when I do want to give my lashes a boost with a coating of mascara, I’m fussy. However, they are also relatively short (in comparison to their thickness) and poker-straight. They’re thick and dark, which means I can get away with leaving them bare on most days. I have a love-hate relationship with my lashes.
