Earthlab Cosmetics Raw Mascara + Coupon Code

I love me a good mascara and am always on the hunt for one that's better than the last. When Monique, of Anise Apothecary, asked if I wanted to try *Earthlab Raw Mascara, I couldn't resist. Her and her beautiful daughter, Saska, both raved about it and so naturally, I had to see if the hype was real. They (Monique, Saska, and Earthlab) did not let me down!

Description: This 100% natural, botanical based formula glides on effortlessly. You’ll enjoy the silky smooth application which easily separates lashes and the best part – No Clumping, No Flaking, No Smudging, No Toxic Chemicals and No Parabens! Once you’ve tried “Raw Mascara” you’ll want to throw your old brand in the trash!

This mascara really doesn't clump, flake, or smudge. I wore it to an amusement park, on a friggen hot as hell day, and it stayed on from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. without any of the above happening. I love the big natural bristle brush, mainly because it doesn't poke my eye when I'm using it and is easy to use. As mentioned in previous mascara reviews, my lashes are pretty long and thick naturally. I like that falsies effect, without looking like a drag queen, and prefer a mascara to thicken (very important), lengthen (not as important), and hold a curl. This one thickens and lengthens beautifully, but doesn't hold a curl on my lashes all that well. Also, for those of you who aren't a fan of phenoxyethanol, this mascara contains it. I'd rather my mascara be well preserved and even though I actively avoid phenoxyethanol, I'm willing to let it slide every so often. All in all, I'm a big fan of this mascara and would definitely repurchase.

Retails for $23 CDN and can be purchased through Anise Apothecary.
