Benefit Bad Gal Bang Mascara Launch + Review





I'm ready to take off!
This even reminded me so much of my bonding time with my son!  We always talk about space, planets and anything related to the Solar System, Milky Way, you name it, we've discussed it!

I had a time off to attend the Big Bang Launch of The Benefit Bad Gal Bang Mascara!  Are you ready to join me into this lash-lafying adventure (seriously, I can have my own dictionary!) :P

"BADgal BANG! 36 HOUR* FULL-BLAST volumizing mascara creates MASSIVE volume without weighing down lashes. The gravity-defying formula builds volume the more you layer, and contains aero-particles, one of the lightest known materials, derived from space technology. This innovative intense pitch black mascara layers easily for bigger & BIGGER impact. Its custom big Slimpact! brush is streamlined to reach root-to-tip, corner-to-corner, upper & lower lashes for BIG VOLUME WITH 360° REACH!"

The Benefit actually sent a small sample size of this product - Nameless, no brand or product name whatsoever and I was able to try this product before it was launched.

After the launch, I used the mascara again in it's official packaging to see if there are any difference or changes from the "demo unit".  One thing for sure, I like the official one better!  Not because the formulation is different because the packaging is bad a**!

Rubberized mascara packaging that look like it came from outer space.  Props to Benefit for always coming up with unique and nice packaging.

The want is rubberized as well and you get very short bristles so the positive side of this is that, I can reach out to the shortest lash hairs without accidentally touching my eyelids.

I also like the fact that the brush wand moves gracefully with you on application - that means full control!

Side View
Can you see how my lashes were lifted even without curling?

Here are my thoughts after using this mascara for good 2 weeks ---

  • The formulation is just right, not too runny or dry.
  • Helps increase the volume of my lashes, does not lengthen as much but more of the VOLUME department.
  • No clumping.  No matter how many times I apply.
  • The packaging is just amazing!  
  • The brush head is easy to work with even on users with sparse and very short lashes.
  • Now on to the downside, the mascara smudges a bit, I guess it's the combination of oil and humidity, it smudges on my sister-in-law's eyelid.  So monolid users may need to prime their lids + powder their lashes before use!

Overall, I am grateful with how my lashes stayed "UP" all day and how the volume of my lashes increases double or triple times!  

Out of the 3 Mascaras Benefit came up with, this is my top choice.
