How did I used to get my lashes so big?
Honestly I think mascara has changed - first pic is giving me Benefit's "They're Real" vibes.

What are the worst products that you bought in 2025?
That stupid fucking bounce mascara from benefit. Literally back to back to back amazing mascara releases (they’re real, roller lash, badgal bang) then this dry, flaky nightmare that if I apply at 10:43 covers my under eyes in dried product by 11:00am sharp. To hell.

What’s a discontinued product you miss most?
Revlon lip butters x100000. Also, benefit They're Real mascara, but in brown. They still do it in black, but I loved the brown. 💔

How do I stop this from happening by the end of the day?!
Better than Sex is awful, one of the few mascaras that smudges and flakes on me no matter what I do. Try Mac Stack, Benefit They're Real, Diorshow or any by Maybelline and you'll see the difference.

How to keep eyelashes from clumping together?
It's better to use 2 or 3 thin coats of mascara than 1 thick coat. Korean mascaras are typically better than Western ones. They clump less. If you do want to go with an American mascara, try Maybelline Lash Discovery. It has few clumps. Benefit They're Real is also a good one that almost never clump

What do we think of Aldi makeup?
I used that one too. It’s a dupe of Benefit They’re Real and performs ok. I have moved over to tubing mascaras because I’m oily and use drops throughout the day and don’t want to encourage smudging. I still might get another anyway because I remember liking it.

Holy Grail Product - Question...
They're real mascara by benefit 😁 Aside from the brush stabbing my eye too many times it is damned impossible to remove.

What’s a mascara brand that makes you look like you have huge false lashes on?
Benefit's They're Real is the single best dramatic mascara I've ever used. It's a pain in the ass to remove though so I rarely wear it.

How to keep eyelashes from clumping together?
Tinted lash primer is a game changer! I use the Benefit They're Real tinted lash primer in brown. For my top lashes, I coat with the primer, separate the lashes with a spoolie, fill in my lash line with a brown liquid eyeliner, then go back in with a dark brown or black mascara and separate with a s

wanting to invest in high end makeup, but idk where to start
you don’t NEED high end make up in order to level up your make up routine. i feel like back in the days it was a case of a clear difference and high end make up did outdo drugstore brands. now i think there’s less of a line, and cheaper brands have really come a long way, personally i think this is
