It’s been awhile since I have had a long term relationship with any drugstore mascara. Sure there have been false alarms…the promising first uses, shiny packaging, persuasive commercials, vibrating wands. But all it takes one reckless night when you go to bed without washing your face and you wake up with stained sheets and ring around the eye and you realize, the mascara wasn’t worth all this trouble in the first place. It didn’t really give you the false eyelash look, it didn’t truly extend and curl, and the vibrating wand didn’t really pack the punch we needed for…proper mascara application.
Oh my friends I have been taken in a time or two. My relationship with mascara is well documented in discarded tubes and expectations unmet. But all that changed when I discovered Maybelline’s Lash Stiletto. At $7.49 it’s many dineros cheaper than your department store brands, and it definitely packs a similar punch. It excels in the lengthening arena, my lashes were long and spidery and I loved them. I have drugstore beauty product ADD and I hardly ever buy the same mascara twice but this product will be in my beauty bag for a while to come.

This globbed my eyelashes right away after 2 coats. I will give it a try again but I was looking like the classic “tarantula eye” and that is a first. bummer…. really wanted this one to work.
Sorry to hear that KC! How long did you wait between coats to apply? I find it worked really well if I did them one right after the other.
Same as you…. i didn’t find the waterproof one and just saw they make that as well. Will try and give it a try; sometimes waterproof performs differently.. I have short thick lashes that can gob fast. thanks for the help. ciao for now…. KCT
