Wet 'n' Wild Max Volume Plus Mascara

I always love a good bargain and I am the kind of girl that prefers to have options. I prefer to have many and affordable items instead of having one and expensive.  I get easily bored and because my budget is not great, I usually buy products from more affordable brands.

Wet 'n' Wild is one of them.  I tried a variety of products during the last years and they are good. Really good.  

First of all, the packaging.  I love pink colour and I must admit that 90% of my decision to purchase this was because of the colour. Yes, I am not lying, I love everything pink.  The tube is a bit bulkier than other tubes I have tried and makes it a little difficult to use.  Where you hold the wand is larger than usual and in an odd shape, so you end up making an extra effort to hold it with your fingers and close to your eyelashes. 

Furthermore, the formula of this is not wet, but drier than a typical every day mascara and the product is generally thin. I've experienced mascaras in the past that had an extremely thick formula that it couldn't be used. It applies really well without clamping and stays on without flaking.  I usually need 5-6 coats to give definition and length and it definitely gives length, but you will need a couple of more coats to define them and make them darker.  It stays on for 7-8 hours and I am very pleased about it.

The wand is plastic and in a good size and the bristles small, and does not pick much product, so you have to dip it again and again in the tube to get more product.  I really like when you get the right amount of the product and you build it yourself instead of getting all messy with too much product.

 (apologies for the crappy picture...face with no makeup, no concealer, just mascara)

Overall, I like to use this product for a natural everyday makeup to give my lashes some length and the right amount of definition for my day at the office.  But for a night time look, this mascara does not have it. I wouldn't use it with a smokey eye for example, as it would not give definition at all and my lashes would be invisible.  But for everyday use, I think that it does the job nicely.
