Review: L'Oreal False Lash Flutter Mascara

A few weeks ago I was shopping at Sainsburys, and I'd run out of mascara so decided to try out the new L'Oreal False Lash Flutter mascara which was on offer

You've probably seen the advert - for butterfly lashes! The brush is a strange scoop shape, with longer bristles on one side than the other, and it's a comb brush as most the L'Oreal mascaras seem to be, to give better distribution of the fibres along the lashes to extend them. Just like my favourite, the L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic mascara, this mascara contains fibres to lengthen lashes, but this mascara promises to make them longer towards the other edges

Here's the results:

As you can see, it makes my lashes really long, and really defined to give a great impact, and I'd say a bigger impact than the L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic mascara, which gives length but also more clumpiness with the added volume to lashes (see below)

The brush itself has longer and shorter bristles so it's really easy to get the short lashes at the edge, and the natural curve to the brush is shaped to the eye so it's really easy to get the base of lashes and the bottom lashes.

Overall, I really like this new mascara! The brush takes a little getting used to, but the impact is quite big, to the point where the first day I was wearing it my boyfriend asked what I'd done to my eyelashes because they'd grown!
