New Covergirl Bombshell Volume by LashBlast Mascara Review


Purchased


 I spotted Covergirl's new mascara Bombshell Volume by lastbast at CVS a few weeks ago and I was super excited and couldn't wait to try it out. I love the regular lastblast and the clump crusher as well. So you can imagine I was excited for a new lash blast mascara to try out.

Lets talk about the price of this mascara, OMG it was $13 something. That is freaking ridiculous for a drugstore mascara. I knew that if this mascara was anything short of amazing it was going back.


The Covergirl Bombshell volume by lashblast mascara is a 2 step double ended mascara and this thing is huge. lol I was really surprised by the size of the bottle when I saw it in person. The first step is what Covergirl calls "extreme volume", Im pretty sure this is just regular lashblast mascara which is a great mascara. It has the same rubber brush wand with stiff short bristles to add volume. Step 2 is an "intensifying topcoat". This one as a standard mascara brush wand. I really didn't notice any difference in the formula of the 2 different steps.

Step 1


Step 2

After using this mascara for a little over a week I am ready to tell you what I really think abut it. The formula and the brushes on this mascara are great. There was no flaking and it lasted all day. The two step thing doesn't bother me at all I use more than one mascara most of the time anyway. The thing that wasn't great was the handle, it is so hard and akward to apply this mascara. The length of the wand is just too short and makes it very difficult.

So, Im sure you want to know, did I return? Hell yes I did, it was NOT amazing! LOL For the $13+ price tag it was definitely not worth it. I would much rather use two separate mascaras that aren't so hard to apply, my favorites right now are Maybelline the Rocket and Loreal Lash out Butterfly which I plan to do a review on soon.
