Benefit Roller Lash Mascara Review

Hi friends! I know you all have seen and probably read tons of reviews on the new Benefit Roller Lash Mascara, but today I'm sharing my thoughts on it!

First I wanted to give a huge shoutout to my awesome friend Kim from A Very Sweet Blog for sending me this and letting me be a part of her #curlfriends party! I can't thank you enough!! And please go check out her blog!!

On to the review! 

Mascara Claims
From Benefit and Sephora website 

"Roller Lash not only lifts and super-curls, but this instant curve-setting formula holds for 12 hours, is easy to remove, and contains provitamin B5 and serine, known for their lash-conditioning benefits. 
97% said it visibly lifts lashes 
- 87% said it gives long-lasting curl 
- 94% said eyes look more wide open"


How it looks 
Here is the progress of applying coats. Even with one coat this mascara gives great length and volume. I just always apply three coats of mascara (ocd much). 
You can see here the difference of my two eyes next to eachother of how the mascara looks. 

My Thoughts
-I am freaking in love with this mascara. This is one of the best I've ever used. It gives such good length and volume, which I find hard to find a mascara to do both!
-I've also never had a mascara make my lashes curl like this. And like it claims, the curl holds all day. I have a problem where I'll apply mascara and my lashes will look great, but a few hours later the curl is gone and they don't look as dramatic. It drives me crazy but roller lash totally looks great all day! It's amazing. 
-The formula is good, it's not too wet or too dry so it's easy to apply. If you aren't carful, it can get clumpy.  
-It's also super easy to remove. I was nervous to try this because They're Real is so stinking hard to remove so I thought this might be too. It comes right off with a makeup remover wipe. 
-I've heard that the Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara is a dupe for this. I have tried (and loved) both, and I will say they are super similar! I do prefer this Benefit one though, but if you want a cheaper alternative then the Maybelline one is good too!
-This mascara is pretty pricey at $24, but it's totally worth the money! This is definitely something that I will splurge on!

Have you tried Benefit Roller Lash yet? If so, leave your thoughts on it in the comments!!

  1. You have crazy long lashes, Ashley! Will you send me half of the length please? LOL!

    I really want to try this but hubby gave me the look of 'are you shitting me?!' when he saw the damn price! I'll get my hands on this eventually but for now, I'm soooo happy with Lash Sensational!

  3. This looks great on you Ashley! Glad you love it!! The more I use my tube the better it gets for me, so now it works better for me, but my lashes are only half the length of yours! I have lash envy :)
