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.
Essence Get Big Lashes Mascara
♥ Very black and intense colour
♥ Nice and attractive packaging
♥ Big tube and large wide wand
♥ Thick formula
♥ Gives volume
♥ Gives length
♥ Defines lashes like a dream
♥ Curls lashes
♥ Clumps after 3-4 coats
♥ Sometimes it picks up too much product and
you don't need that much
♥ Long-lasting
♥ Great for every day and night time
♥ Excellent for night/formal makeup
♥ Easy to remove
****

Essence Plump No Clump! Volume Mascara
♥ Deep black colour
♥ Cute packaging with lovely colours
♥ Gives volume
♥ Gives length
♥ Lashes appear thicker
♥ Does not curl lashes that much
♥ Large wand - wide bristles that separate lashes
♥ Creamy formula
♥ Needs 3-4 coats
♥ Does not flake
♥ Long-lasting
****
W7 Lashed Up Mascara
♥ Adjustable wand that bends into an L shape
♥ Easy to use
♥ Difficult to push wand back in tube because of
the bendable wand
♥ Good length
♥ Medium volume
♥ Does not flake
♥ Wet formula
♥ Separates lashes well
♥ Great for every day use
♥ Needs 5-6 coats or more
***
W7 Lengthening Thickening Mascara
♥ No intense colour
♥ Nice wand and brush
♥ Separates lashes easily
♥ No flaking
♥ Not much volume
♥ Medium length
♥ Drier formula than the other mascaras
♥ Needs 7-8 coats to define lashes
♥ Would be great for bottom lashes
♥ Packaging is not attractive at all
♥ Easy to remove
**
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.
What is your favourite mascara that gives both length and volume? And what have you been trying lately?

Go for it, it is a great mascara!
DeleteI have tried quite a few mascaras from essence and I really like them. My favourite is the maximum definition volume one :)

I will add this one on my wishlist to try next!
DeleteI've never tried any of these mascaras but they sound great! I love that they're all affordable options too!
ReplyDeleteJennyLovesBeauty♥
They are really affordable!
DeleteI've heard of Essence, but I've never tried any of their products! The fact that they're good, too, just means I need to definitely try these mascaras. I really like the Maybelline Great Lash mascara!
ReplyDeleteKiersten
You definitely need to try Essence :)
DeleteEssence are a brand I keep hearing nothing but fab things about! I really need to try a few things!

DeleteI really like W7 but haven't tried their mascaras before. I use their Banana Powder a lot though! xx
ReplyDeleteAlice Anne // Annie Writes Beauty
W7 is an affordable brand but not all products are great. I had some hits and some misses with this one.
DeleteLoving this post formula, it's so easy to read and you summed all these mascaras up beautifully! I actually haven't tried any of these, but I do like the sound of them, especially the W7 ones! W7 in general is such an amazing, affordable brand. :) <3 I've heard fab things about their palettes but never tried their mascaras, The Lashed Up one especially sounds like it would be right up my alley. :) I'm currently testing Max Factor's 2000 calories mascara and I'm really loving it! x

ReplyDeleteMacarons and Mischief
Yes, I love Essence!
DeleteI love Essence mascaras! At the moment I am using the Princess Lash mascara and I love it! Now I want to try the Plump No Clump one, the wand looks really appealing and I love when mascaras give both length and volume!
ReplyDeleteCy | Dulce de Mango
The Princess Lash Mascara didn't work for me, it was too dry and my lashes looked like hey were glued together. It was a fail.
DeleteI LOVE the Essence Mascaras, they're amazing and so food considering they're so cheap too xx
ReplyDeleteGemma ♡ Miss Makeup Magpie
Yes, I love Essence mascaras too!
DeleteI haven't tried any of the essence mascara's before, but they sound great! Definitely something I will try soon. Great review!
ReplyDeleteYou should try Essence, they are so good! :)
DeleteWow, nice pictures and review! I haven't tried any of these before. I have tried only Maybelline and MaxFactor. I'm not used to putting on mascara because I always scratch my eyes involuntarily. :))

Yes, so good!!
DeleteI think there are so many great affordable mascaras that the more expensive ones are not really worth it. I used to love the Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara, but then I found one from an Italian brand (it's called PUPA Vamp) that is just as dramatic, but less then half the price.
ReplyDeletehttp://carolinapage.eu
I know Pupa, a friend of mine brought me some beauty products a few years back from Pupa when she was travelling.
DeleteGreat post as all of these brands are new to me. Have a great day! Gemma x

DeleteHaven't tried any of these before or anything from either brand! Both sound great if you are on a budget though!
ReplyDeleteDanielle's Beauty Blog
They are great affordable options for low budget :)
DeleteI have never tried the W7 mascaras but I was sent to try those two mascaras from Essence and they are absolutely horrid on my lashes. I think they would work on anyone who has amazing lashes but on my pathetic ones, they both did nothing.
ReplyDeleteShireen | Reflection of Sanity
Too bad they didn't work for you lashes Shireen.
DeleteThese sound great! I have been using a marc jacobs one that Im obsessed with :)
