Today I'm reviewing the Tom Ford Waterproof Extreme Mascara (as you probably guessed from the title). I have recently ordered some new make-up drawers and while I'm waiting for them to be delivered I thought I would have a bit of a clear out. I have another post coming up with all the make-up I'm getting rid of and one of those items was the Tom Ford mascara, as I've had it for quite some time. This is a luxury item so I thought it would be helpful to create a full review on this product in order to give you my full opinion.
Claims
Tom Ford's luscious, deep black mascara magnifies the eyes and intensifies your look. The combination of darkest black carbon and lash-filling powder works to transform lashes with optimal glamour and drama.
Review
This is the only item I have tried from the Tome Ford collection to date which was given to me as a gift, I would love to try more in the future (particularly the lipsticks) but the price tag always makes me think twice. This comes in a standard mascara tube but it does look very sleek and feels expensive, it has very simple black sophisticated packaging. This mascara costs £36 and contains 8ml of product, for me personally this is very expensive for a mascara especially as you want to replace these kinds of items every 3-6months. This has a traditional mascara wand which I like, sometimes I think cosmetics companies like to create the most insane, unusual brush purely as a selling point so it was nice to see this classic wand that makes application very easy and pain-free. This has a nice creamy formula that applies smoothly without looking clumpy and makes your lashes look good...........good, not magical! The name extreme implies this mascara will give you something very intense but I found it was a nice everyday mascara but it didn't do anything special for length or volume. Usually, I wouldn't purchase a waterproof mascara but as this was given to me as a gift I gave it a try and it was very long lasting which is great but also makes it very difficult to remove (typical of most waterproof mascaras). My overall opinion is that this is a nice product but not worth the high price tag, if you have plenty of money and want a good waterproof mascara for every day then this is nice but personally I don't have that kind of money to spend on mascara so I won't be repurchasing this particular item.
