Mascara test -1 l'oreal vs. Mybelline!

So after purchasing these two mascaras this summer i thought i would do a test with them to try and tell which really does what it says and gives the best results in my opinion! :O)
SO first mascara i will be testing is the Maybelline Lash Stiletto. This mascara claims to be the ultimate length mascara and give black patent shine. I do love the packaging and concept of this mascara the way it is shaped in a stiletto and claims to give patent shine ! :)

Next is l'oreals voluminous mascara. This mascara claims to give 5x more volume without clumping and be a conditioning formula. Lots of gurus such as laura aka lollipop26 have been boasting about this claiming it is a complete dupe for YSL's Fauc Cills ,asca- which i love but have run out of :((


So first we have L'oreals Voluminous mascara on the Left eye. this mascara seems to go on nicely but goes all over my lid when i put it on .
i do like the length and the volume it gives without beeing too clumpy after about 4 coats!!
soo (Y) thumbs up , for what it claims to doo. so 5/5!



Then Maybelline's lash Stiletto on the right eye. this mascara gives nice length but i do find it quite painful as the bristles always seem to catch my eye as applying! ://
But the mascara does seem to give a nice length as it claims. although i would not consider it ULTIMATE length it does give a subtle length. so all in all for what it claims 3/5






Heres a photo with my eyes wearing both. L'oreals on the left and MAybelline on the right. I would have to say that i prefer L'oreals as it gives off more lenghth AND volume which is what i like ! :)
While i prefer L'oreal's i do like Maybelline's as well.
i would definitely say that this is a mascara which is good for the day.
it doesn't give of as much volume just length really. :)
But all in all i would have to say that both have become my favourites and had bought a backup even of voluminous for when i runn out! :)
i do prefer applying the maybelline one first then doing a generous coat of L'oreals on top then MAybelline again ! :)
To get the look i want , as after applying the voluminous it does tend to clump and by using the lash stiletto on top it un clumps tmy lashs because of the spaced out bristles! :)))
lots of love tashxx
