Mascara Comparison: Benefit Bad Gal Lash and Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash - Makeup and Beauty Blog
Oh, I've had my share of struggles with high-end mascaras, and I'thou sure you have too. Are they worth paying a premium for when there are then many more affordable options out there? It depends, but for the past few months I have been using and loving Make Up For Ever Smoky Lash mascara. As a matter of fact, I named it my Holy Grail / Must-Take Product of 2010.
But considering my mom has been raving about Benefit Bad Gal Lash for months, I decided to finally pit the two mascaras together in an ultimate battle of the brands.
Do good Bad Gal Lash — $19 (Sephora)
Brand Upward For Ever Smoky Lash — $22 (Sephora)
The Packaging
I similar the style both products are packaged, but I give the advantage to Bad Gal for its amazing castor. Super thick and substantially longer than the castor included with Make Up For Always Smoky Lash, it'due south just plain improve in my stance. Other than that, however, the packaging for both mascaras is adequately standard (tube and wand).
The Application
As covered in the video down below, Make Up For Always Smoky Lash applies rather clumpy, but it thickens the heck out of lashes and does so better than Bad Gal. The formula'south also much darker, but Bad Gal applies like a dream, lengthening better with greater definition. As far as awarding, I'd call this one a tie.
The Lasting Power
Lasting ability is extremely important to me. Some might say I put all of my eggs in one basket on this one, simply overall I think that if a mascara doesn't last through the dark, cute or non, what'south the point?
Well, Benefit Bad Gal Lash really disappointed me here. Despite applying like dream, it just didn't last, leaving my lashes slow and lifeless well earlier the end of the solar day, while Brand Up For E'er Smoky Lash, despite its clumpy formula, lasted all day and night.

Wearing Smoky Lash, my lashes looked longer, thicker, darker and more impressive at the stop of the twenty-four hours, and since lasting ability matters more to me than almost annihilation else when it comes to mascaras, the extra $3 for Make Up For Always Smoky Lash is a premium I'm willing to pay. Benefit Bad Gal Lash applied beautifully and actually gave my lashes that "goddess" look, only it simply didn't stand the test of fourth dimension.
