Volume Million Lashes So Couture from L’Oreal is such a well rated mascara that I knew I needed to try it. I picked this up from Boots for £9.99 and have been testing it for around a month now.
The brush on this wand is a plastic wand with soft, flexible bristles. I’m pretty aggressive with my mascara application and occasionally have the odd brush in eye situation, but I still haven’t had that with this product. The formula is jet black, creamy and buildable.
After a full days wear there is still a lot of curl and absolutely NO smudging which is really important for me. Furthermore it doesn’t sting my eyes which I’ve had with a number of other mascaras.
Positives
- Buildable volume
- Comfortable wand that doesn’t poke the eye
- No need to wipe of excess
- Does not run, smudge or flake
- Lashes feel soft to the touch
- Does not sting when you rub your eyes
Negatives
- Can transfer onto the lid during application. Tip: tilt head backwards during application
- Not the most amount of lengthening, volume or curl I’ve had from a mascara
Overall, this is a great mascaras you can pick up for under a tenner in terms of ease of application and results. However, I’m not sure I would buy it again as it isn’t as volumising as say the Maybelline Lash Sensational or as lengthening as Max Factor Masterpiece. This is a mascara I’d leave for work days as you get a good amount of volume and separation, no smudging and it’s comfortable to wear all day.

I tried the original Million Lashes which I liked! From what you’ve said doesn’t seem like there’s much difference apart from the packaging

The brush looks ever so slightly different, it’s more tapered towards the end of the brush but how that translates on the lashes I’m not sure! Thanks for reading 🙂 Jay x

Thanks for this helpful review! I am a big fan of L’Oreal mascara’s, right now I need to try the Miss Manga one. This really helped me out because I love a very volumizing and lengthening mascara, so this one I would use on a daily basis as well!

The Loreal mascaras are pretty good. I like that it didn’t flake or smudge – thats the worst!
