Marc Jacobs O!Mega Lash Volumizing Mascara Review

Before I get a delicious mascara review I just want to say to my readers, thank you. My last review was months ago and I am amazed that I still get close to 1000 visits every month. This is purely a hobby for me and you are the reason I continue to write.

 

I grabbed a tube of Marc Jacobs delicious O!Mega Lash Volumizing Mascara a short while ago and here's what I thought of it

Product Description From Official Site Summarized

-long, voluminous lashes.

- an innovative double brush in this volumizing mascara boasting an advanced design formed by stitching together two different mascara brushes: one for enhanced lash separation;

- another for more volume, curl, and volume


From their description, this really sounds like a triple-threat mascara that's said to do it all. Volume, curl, and length, but the one thing that I really like about this mascara is I get great lash separation as I'm adding and building product onto my lashes.

Impressive volume and even more impressive lash separation. There is a certain degree of clumping of the lashes and I accept this given that the volume gained was far greater than the actual clumping.

There was good lengthening and claims of lash curling also lived up to expectations. My lashes remained beautifully fanned and curled throughout the day.

Pro Tip: A good curl regardless if your mascara or brush had anything to do with it always helps with the perception of longer lashes. Therefore, always curl your lashes before putting mascara on them!

The brush applicator is narrow at the top and quickly cascade into uniform tube shape. The brushes are unevenly short and medium. I guess this is what they mean by combining two brush designs into one optimized for volume, length, and curl.

I recommend Marc Jacobs O!Mega Lash Volumizing Mascara for two reasons. One is the product delivers volume, length, and curl and second is the impressive lash separation and volume combo that I don't come across often with the lower price point mascaras. If you have a serious need for lash separation, O!Mega is worth a try!


Where to buy: Online and in-store at most high-end cosmetic retailers.
Price is $26US


Thou shalt not walk out of thy house without lush lashes except on weekends, weekdays, and basically whenever you don't feel like putting on makeup. More power to you.
