AVEDA MASCARA PLUS ROSE
I've tried tons of mascara brands, and I really like this one. The scent is nice, but that's not a selling point for me. I have sensitive eyes, and auburn hair, so I need a mascara that is non-irritating and preferably not jet black. I picked this up in Espresso and I'm pleasantly surprised. It is a very natural looking mascara. If you want to look like you're wearing false lashes that extend up to your brows a la Kim Kardashian, this isn't for you. If you want a natural "you but better" look, this is a good choice. It extended my lashes slightly, separated them, and made them look longer, thicker, and just overall fantastic. One coat was all I needed. I would call it an "enhanced natural" look. I had no issues whatsoever with clumping, flaking, seepage, or a long drying time. Perhaps they have reformulated? I love this mascara and will definitely repurchase! The first time I used this product I didn't like it because it didn't give my lashes that "WOW" factor that other (non-natural) brands have given me. However, since I've turned over a new leaf and started using all-natural skin care and make-up products, I've returned to this one and I LOVE it. It makes my lashes look naturally defined; no clumps or dead giveaways that you are actually wearing mascara. I'm going for the natural look now, using tinted moisturizer instead of foundation, and natural earth tones for eyes and only a hint-of-color for lips. My mom gave a compliment on my makeup when I first started using this product. She said, "your face looks great and your lashes look SO NATURAL!" If you're going for the natural look, use this mascara. Other natural brands are sometimes more of a "lash-tint"; this one looks natural but it is still possible to sculpt a great shape and curl by using an eye-lash curler. I'm still curious to try other brands, but when dissappointed, I will always go back to this one. I've repurchased this product repeatedly and will no doubt continue to do so- it's lovely stuff! It doesn't do anything terribly dramatic, but if you want conditioned, glossy, naturally defined lashes with a bit of lengthening and volumising effects, you'll love this... I know I do! Its conditioning formula means that I don't "lose" lashes during application, and my finished eye makeup is enhanced by glossy lashes that are soft to the touch. This product is scented and I do have sensitive eyes, but I've not had a bit of irritation from it. If I had to describe this product in a word, it’d be “clean.” It is a light, simple formula that darkens, conditions, and seperates your lashes, but doesn’t perform pyrotechnics. It looks utterly natural – which is what I want 98% of the time. This looks perfect for a day in the park or a family dinner – your eyes will look great, but not like you’re trying too hard. If you want a mascara that doubles the legnth of your lashes or plumps them into an extravagant fringe, this isn’t for you. If you want an easy to apply, effective lash enhancer that looks great in natural light and perfect for the office, give this a try. For the reviewers who write about flaking, I must say I’m surprised. My best guess is that they tried to layer on too much product to get the more pronounced look they’re accustomed to. With one simple coat, I’ve never had any problem with flakes or smudges. In fact, I first wore this for a teary wedding because I was told that this is the most water-resistant formula that doesn’t have the chemical junk that most waterproof mascaras use. — 1 year, 1 month agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 8 people said helpful

A great mascara!
This mascara actually has a light rose scent to it and that makes it a pleasure to use, I love it. It goes on smoothly and is easily to clean off. At a bargain price too! — 2 years, 7 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 4 people said helpful
