It’s been a while since Benefit came out with a new mascara, and now they have the They’re Real Magnet Extreme Lengthening Mascara. This mascara formula has metallic iron oxides in it and a magnetized wand so it can pull the mascara formula up and through the lashes.
It’s an interesting technology that you really need to try to believe. The mascara wand really separates the lashes so that you don’t get any clumps and once this dries, the lashes are nice and long. You can build some volume and the lashes look pretty. I didn’t have any flaking with this mascara and if you have oily skin you might get a bit of smudging. But overall, I was happy with how it looked and I am going to continue using it.
This mascara is $36 or you can buy a mini size for $20.
You might remember that I also tried the Roller Lash and I really loved that one. That one is $34 and I would say that it’s great for building volume very quickly. It has tiny bristles that really grab onto lashes, and then longer bristles which are good for creating separation between the lashes. The They’re Real Magnet mascara is better for lift.
