show and tell: mascara discovery collection

There are many different mascaras on the market. It can be difficult to know what ones work well and what ones fall flat. Over the years, all sorts of mascaras have been tested here on the creation of beauty is art. However, since the discontinuation (or inability to find) The Super Sizer mascara from Cover Girl, my mascara purchases have become more random. Some more recent standouts include Lash Without Limits from Essence and Exhibitionist Uncensored from Cover Girl, but there is no holy grail mascara for me at this point. The Mascara Discovery Collection could change that. During the holiday season, the Mascara Discovery Collection was gifted to me, and it includes eight mini size mascaras and a coupon that can be redeemed for one full size mascara. Essentially, you test out eight mini mascaras, choose the one you like best, and redeem the card for the mascara of your choice. It is a wonderful way to test out many different formulas. Here are all of the mascaras included in the set.

As mentioned, there are eight mini sized mascaras in total, and each of the mascaras ranges from 2 mL to 4 mL depending on the brand. The Mascara Discovery Collection set has all sorts of different mascaras inside, which includes the following:

• Lise Watier - 24 Hrs Glam Intense Mascara
• Clarins - Wonder Volume XXL
• Lancome - Lash Idole Mascara Deluxe
• Clinique - High Impact Mascara
• Benefit Cosmetics - BadGal Bang! Volumizing Mascara
• Yves Saint Laurent - Lash Clash Extreme Volume Mascara
• Lancome - Hypnose Drama Mascara
• Too Faced - Better Than Sex

Though it is drugstore mascara that I tend to reach for most often these days, there was a time that I used high end mascaras regularly. At a certain point, the quality of drugstore mascaras increased and there did not seem to be enough of a difference between drugstore and high end to justify the additional cost. However, this set makes it possible to test out several different high end mascaras and see what works - or does not work - for me. I have already tested out several mascaras from this Mascara Discovery Collection, so look out for mini reviews of each mascara in the future. I will also share which full-sized mascara was chosen once all have been tested! So far, some of the mascaras are definitely better than others.
