Did I find the Holy Grail of Mascara's?

EVERYBODY that knows me knows how big of a mascara junkie I am. It would be a horrible thing in my life to be without mascara and to be without lip products. Seriously!!

Recently, I have been introduced to a new mascara that matches perfect with the Blinc Black Eyelash Primer . It is Tyra Banks mascara called Smack my Fat Lash Now, of course you will hear me say a zillion times that I cannot be without such and such product because I am madly in love with it and so on. But it almost feels like I have found the Holy Grail of Mascara's when I started using Blinc Primer with Tyra Banks Smack my Fat Lash. Yeah, I know right.. pretty big comment coming from me!!

A little about Smack my Fat Lash Mascara

When you start searching for mascara's the two main things most people look for are: either lengthening mascara's or mascara's that adds a lot of volume and/or thickens. Smack my Fat Lash does both in one product! The formula is a dual action formula that adds volume and extension technologies to create one amazing product. No, you are not seeing things, on one side of the mascara wand you will see blue which is a blue volumizing formula and the other side will be black which is the extension formula. When you apply it to your lashes, do not worry, you will only see this beautiful rich black color!

To apply the mascara, start at the base of your lashes and wiggle the wand back and forth in a side motion, than bring the brush upwards. You can take your lashes as long as you want. For me, so far I have only applied two coats, I am curious to see how far I can take the length of my lashes though. I will have to try it and post an update!

As with most people, I am addicted to reading reviews. Yes, it helps me to understand the product a little better but in the end, I always make my own decision if I want to try the product or not. Reading the reviews on Smack my Fat Lash was pretty amazing.. there are 19 reviews posted and 17 of the reviews are FIVE (5) STARS... what does that tell you?

I am just going to add a side note here about the Tyra Banks Beautytainer Megan Burk. I can honestly say I have never met a nicer person - that is a 100% devoted to her beliefs in Tyra Banks Products! She will do everything she can to make sure you are completely satisfied with your products. To ME personally, if the representative of a company has a bad attitude, I don't care how good the product is, I will not purchase it. Megan has found a forever customer in me-not to mention I am head over heels about this mascara. For me it is a win-win... I found a fantastic mascara and a beautiful friend!!

How, I love you let me count the ways!

I received this product in my April 2016 BoxyCharm box. I was going to write a short blurb about it, but once I tried it, there is no way I could only say a few words... this stuff is beyond AMAZING!

Let me start by saying, mascara has been one of my addictions since I was a young Teen. Yes, I have loved makeup just about all of my life, but mascara and lipstick are my two biggest addiction and/or weaknesses. I know my mascara. I have tried very cheap ones and very expensive ones and all in between. It takes something really special to get my attention, but better yet to keep my attention. The first swipe across my lashes when using this product, I knew it was all over and this would become a part of my daily routine.

The Magic Wand

First, the packaging is very nice. Blinc places their sealed tubes of mascara into a screw top long tin. I made it a point to mention the tube of mascara itself was safely sealed than placed into the metal tin. Once you open the tube of primer, you see this really cool looking brush/comb applicator. It is amazing!! If you look at the pictures, one side of the applicator looks like a comb and the other side looks like a brush, and together it just makes one fantastic mascara/primer wand!!

The formula seemed a little thick to me, but again this is the first primer I have used. One swipe across my lashes I could tell an immediately difference. I know right... it sounds like I am making it up, but truly I am not. It is crazy. When you are placing the primer on your lashes this formula feels really good. So perhaps me saying the formula seemed a little thick may have been a little out of place. Because the thickness of the formula made for an excellent application.

When you use an eyelash primer, you are setting a base for your lashes to add volume and length. Since I am not real familiar with eyelash primers, I am not sure if all of them treat your eyelashes or not, but Blinc does! There are ingredients in the formula that help encourage new lash growth and there are also vitamins and nourishing ingredients which help to moisturize and condition your lashes, plus the primer contains no fragrances!

The wand of the primer helps to separate and lengthen your lashes. Allow each coat to dry for at least 60 seconds before adding another coat. I can tell you from experience all you will need is one or two coats to see a HUGE difference in your lashes! After you have applied as much primer as you want, than follow with a coat of your regular mascara. Blinc does have a product called Mascara Amplified Mascara which pairs excellently with this primer. (Yes, I have both)
