I am always on the hunt to find the perfect mascara, but I haven't tried any high-end ones so I cannot give a complete opinion on what is the perfect mascara cause I haven't tried any expensive ones that are said to be really really good. But I have been testing these four and I will give you an honest review on how they performed on me.

♥ Very black and intense colour
♥ Nice and attractive packaging
♥ Big tube and large wide wand

I must say that the first two Essence mascaras are really nice and define my lashes well. They are very affordable (under 5 euros) and I am really impressed with their performance.
