benefit They're Real Lengthening Mascara - Jet Black 8.5g

Overhyped and overpriced

I am a huge fan of Benefit products and have been for many years. Benefit They'Re Real! Mascara - Black was a recommendation from a friend. Sadly, I am not a huge fan. I don't think the effect is any better than other mascaras. I haven't had any compliments or remarks that I've changed mascara. The only obvious thing I've noticed is that it regularly smudges which is really annoying as I end up having to rub off mascara marks. Not an attractive look.

They're Real is Really Good

I've just tried this mascara for the first time and I can't recommend it enough. I put it on this morning, and my eyelashes are noticeably longer and thicker. I started to put on a second coat and it started to get a bit clumpy so I decided not to bother as they looked good enough with the one. At the end of the day they look as good as they did this morning, with no panda eyes or flaking. I've yet to try to remove it as it's not bedtime just yet, and I understand this is a bit of a problem but am sure it's worth it and hey, if it doesn't remove easily then it will just save time in the morning.

Benefit They'Re Real! Mascara - Black

I purchased the Benefit They'Re Real! Mascara - Black when it was first released, It is a fab mascara, really lengthens, and the brush applicator is great too! I recommend!

Fab Mascara

This mascara is really as good as it advertises, it lenghtens and curls your eyelashes. I will definitely be ordering this again. It is a bit pricey in my opinion but worth it!

Still found myself using two mascaras

I heard and read a lot of reviews about this mascara as I was reluctant to spend the money but decided to give it a go. I currently use Rimmel's Scandel Eyes mascara, I like it because it has a big, soft bristle brush and I don't normally buy the plastic hard brush mascaras. But found that it went clumpy after a while and didn't last the day, all of the things the Benefit one said it didn't do. After initially opening it I found it had a hard bristle brush which made me think it wasn't going to work and it didn't. After using it I found that it didn't give me the coverage and boost and the base of my lashes but was perfect for separating and defining them. Hence now I am using both mascaras, the Rimmel one to boost the base of them and the Benefit one to lengthen, separate, etc. Overall I am glad i gave it a go but disappointed that I had to spend the money to find out.

Great mascara

Had a free make over from Benefits in Debenhams Bristol & liked the effect of the mascara I bought it - really pleased with the results I get think the brush end is brill for seperating lashes and especially for tiny lashes at corne of eyes. Only negative is I can"t take it off very easily and I end up with panda eyes! I have used make up remover pads and gel but still get black smudg eyes.

Good but not perfect

The mascara does make your lashes longer and gives a volume but it also dries out very quickly. However, I this is the third They're real that I have bought so it means I really enjoy the effect it gives to my eye lashes. Would recommend if you don't mind buying a new one in 1-1,5 month time!
