MUA Lash Boom - £3* |
I was really happy to receive it in the post but upon application I've found I'm not so keen. The purple tube is pretty cool and I was interested to see how it would lengthen and volumise the lashes but when I took the wand out it looked really scary. The brush is thin with a round end, which apparently helps you to reach all of the lashes. In all honesty the round end picked up lots of excess mascara and was too big for my lashes, meaning I ended up with mascara in my fringe and, as you can see above, lots of fallout.
Personally I don't think this really lengthens my lashes either. I have weird eyelashes that tend to point downwards a little or straight out so I'm always really keen to try mascaras that pull they upwards and give me a normal looking lash and unfortunately this didn't.
I would have liked a mascara tube with one of those devices that removes excess mascara when you pull it out. I had to wipe the brush several times to get rid of excess and even then it still clumped a lot.
Despite this review I am a real fan of MUA. I think they're brilliantly cheap and cheerful, but unfortunately not every product works for everyone. This is just one of those products I've not really got on with but I'm sure someone else will see it as the holy grail of mascaras. I'm sure I can find this one a good home.
Have you tried the MUA Lash Boom?

My eyelashes are pretty straight too so this doesn't look like it'd be up my alley either! What a shame, they're so cheap too! and drugstore mascara's are getting SO expensive!!

It's a shame this mascara was such a disappointment, I've never tried any MUA mascaras, but I'll definitely take your word for it. It's no point spending £3 on a awful mascara, when you can pick up decent ones from other brands for a pound or so more

I have never been impressed with their mascara, I think it is one product you get what you pay for! The brush is very unusual though!
