The Underdog


I'm thinking about making this a weekly series, since there are so many products that I don't think get enough attention from bloggers and makeup lovers! Let me know what you think in the comments!

This week I wanted to mention one of my favourite drugstore mascaras. I don't think I've ever seen a blogger mention an NYC product, but I'm obsessed with this mascara. I picked this up in Superdrug when I was short on money, but had forgotten my mascara. I wasn't expecting much, but I was wildly impressed. 

NYC's Big and Bold mascara claims that it will increase the volume by fifteen times their natural amount. Now, this might be a slight exaggeration, but it does a pretty good job. In fact, when I compare this mascara to my YSL, Benefit, Clinique and Soap and Glory mascaras, this comes out on top, every time.

It's not really a day mascara, the volume and lift it gives is much better suited to nighttime wear, and it layers really well, so you can just wiggle the natural bristle brush over your day mascara, for a fierce lash evening look!

The only gripe I have, is that after a days wear, it can be a little crumbly, but I wouldn't really recommend it for in the day anyway! 

The best thing about this mascara? It's £2.95. Yup, and I would repurchase this over and over again. And I'm not sure I could say the same for any of my higher end mascaras!







Do you have a favourite product that isn't well recognised?
