Charlotte Tilbury Legendary Lashes Mascara | Review

The other week, I was very lucky to be one of the first 100 people into the new Charlotte Tilbury store in Westfield London (read all about it here) as a result, I was given a free mini Legendary Lashes mascara which I was super excited to try. Having never tried a mascara from Charlotte Tilbury before, I was really looking forward to finding out what it was like. 

1./Volume and length

Having mainly used mascaras with plastic applicators lately, I was intrigued to try this one as it's not plastic. As a result, I find that it applies the product really evenly without it being too 'clumpy', meaning that every lash is separated to give a fuller eye lash look as well as adding volume and length.

2./Longevity 

I haven't found this to be the longest lasting mascara in the world as it has left me with a bit of a black  fallout under my eye where the product has worn off, which I've found a little disappointing for such a premium product.

3./Applicator 

For me, the brush is a little too big, I find it really hard to get to the outer lashes without smearing mascara all over my face. I think this may be because I'm used to using quite small applicators which are very different to this one.

4./Formulation

I really like the formulation of this mascara, it applies really easily and evenly to the lashes and the applicator helps apply it well.

5./Packaging

As with all of Charlotte Tilbury's products, the packaging is super cute. It's a lovely rose gold mirrored packaging, with the name down one side which looks like it's been written in beautiful handwriting and then really cute winking eyes on the other side. I love it! 

I really wanted to LOVE this mascara and whilst I do really like it, I don't love it enough to purchase the full sized version. It's lovely to apply and does leave my lashes looking fuller, it just doesn't tick all the boxes for me, sadly.
