New in Lashes… Product Battles - New Mascaras, I got in the US!

Of cause I couldn't go all the way to the US and not come back with any mascaras.
I have actually been good and only having 1-2 mascaras going at the same time - leaving my mascara hoarding days behind.

But this seemed impossible with all the selection in the US - and I just couldn't wait and only try out one at a time.
So I have been testing out the Too Faced Better Than Sex, Tarte Lights Camera Flashes and Physicians Formula Organic Wear.

Tarte Lights Camera Flashes - Too Faced Better Than Sex - Physician Formula Organic Wear
From the pictures they all look pretty similar, so you will have to take my word for, that they aren't.

Too Faced Better Than Sex has a normal bristle wand - quite big and kind of curved.
I only got a sample size, and I don't know, if that could be the reason, I find the application with this a bit of an issue.
It does also have a bit of a tendency to leave little clumps through the lashes.
Once applied and clumps removed, it does actually looks quite good, but not for long unfortunately.
Doing the day it crumbles away and at the end of the day, it ain't looking that good.

The Tarte Lights Camera Flashes has a big plastic wand.
The formula is kind of "elastic" and very black, which leaves a beautiful coat over the lashes.
The big wand does make it a little hard not to get mascara on the lids, but I have this problem with most mascaras.
And this lasts forever - almost to the point, where it is a bit of hassle to get of at the end of the day.
I would have loved for this to give a bit more length, but paired with the Benefit Roller Lash it gives just the perfect look.

The Physicians Formula Organic Wear is similar to the Tarte in the way, that it also has the plastic wand and is super black.
It is good, but again it lacks in the length department and doesn't really holds a curl very well.

So the Tarte one is my favourite of the three, but non of them has made it to the top of the lash-love-list and non of the them will be a re-purchase.

The Too Faced and Physicians Formula gets a 2 (the Physician Formula leaning towards a 3 though) and the Tarte gets a 3 on the Rating Scale.
I like and use them, but I really wouldn't recommend any of them.
