I have been avoiding this product f-o-r-e-v-e-r. I've seen it on tons of blog lists, and even had a girl at the Benefit counter put it on me while I waited for my brows and wasn't impressed.
The original reason I didn't like the stuff I think had to do with the fact that the girl didn't apply it with the wand it comes with, but a sample wand for hygiene, and sadly the best part of the product (and what I'm convinced makes it so phenomenal) was not used during my first experience, and it makes all the difference.
If you're non-commital grab the $10 mini size, because I can pretty much bet money on the fact that if you haven't already tried the stuff you will love, love, love it.
I honestly don't even think I would have purchased the stuff after my first experience, but there musta' been some makeup angels watching over me because during my latest visit to Sephora I received my annual deluxe birthday sample, which happened to contain a mini thing of they're real, and also Watts Up highlighter (which I am also amazed by!). And I got to try the real deal, brush-n'all and it is a game changer. I was originally pleased because I could add them both to my purse makeup bag, but then I tried them. I am hooked you guys. The second I run out of this mini tube I'm running out to the nearest store to get the full size because my lashes are like whoa never before!
Color me a fool because I've been avoiding this mascara forever and I was so wrong for doing it.
What are some products that caught you by surprise lately?

Yes this is one of my favorites! I don't wear mascara often but when I do I'm all about this bad boy. Cosmetic companies often get it wrong and mess up the bristles - Benefit stepped its game up with the perfection of this, for sure.
