Before and After: Tarte Big Ego Mascara

This mascara’s hot pink tube means there’s a 99.999% chance I’ll be able to find Tarte Big Ego Mascara in the black hole that is my makeup bag. (Also, I’m wondering if I’m the only person who secretly wishes that the actual color of this mascara was hot pink to match the packaging. Hmm…)

Two coats of this featherweight formula, which Tarte designed for mega length and volume, sweep my lashes up waaaay past their tips, hoisting them up and out. The curved, slightly hourglass-shaped brush (which is like a mellower version of Too Faced Damn Girl), is surprisingly easy to tuck under the lash base, too.

That said, the part of me that will happily wear bat wing falsies to go buy a loaf of bread at Target demands (politely) more volume…

Final verdict? Great for lengthening and above average for volume…but it could be better at the latter.

Here are my go-to’s, BTW, for big, baddie lashes: Wander Beauty Mile High Club, Chanel Dimensions de Chanel and IT Cosmetics Superhero.

I’d love to hear what are yours.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen
