This set comes with everything you need for lash application, so it’s great for beginners who have long been fans of Russian-style infills or extensions and want to recreate a similar look at home.

About the brand: Benefit Cosmetics is known for its best-selling mascaras, primers, bronzers, and eyebrow products. About My Lashes: Average length but disappear on camera When I was finished applying the mascara and inspected my lashes in the mirror, I was every bit impressed. This mascara helped me achieve my goal of having lashes that pop on camera, so it's safe to say it has won me over. The lengthening effects were clearly visible, making it appear as though I glued on a pair of fluttery faux lashes. Though there were a few small clumps on my lashes post-application, that's not a dealbreaker for me. The dynamic formula allows it to provide stunning definition, volume, and length that lasted all day. And if you're wondering, it didn't flake or smudge at all. You want your lashes to look long and lifted. Perhaps you can’t live without your eyelash curler, or you have monthly LVL treatments; this is the mascara you’ve been waiting for. Wiggle the brush from the root of your lashes to the tips. Allow for a few seconds of drying time, and apply another coat if desired. We tried a sample from the Classic collection (Queen Me), and despite being the most ‘subtle’ in the range, they still offer amazing density and drama – just as salon-style infills would.While the brush's magnetic center is a standout feature (they're actually working to patent the technology in the EU and the U.S.), there are a few other design characteristics worth pointing out. The mascara's custom-engineered brush also boasts soft zig-zag bristles that allow it to comfortably glide through your lashes and lift them. The development team also spent time innovating the mascara's wiper. Customized to the brush, you're guaranteed to get the right amount of product on the brush every time you pull it out of the tube, without having to worry about mess, excess, or clumps. When I think about mascara, Benefit Cosmetics is one of the first brands to come to mind. As the #1 mascara brand in the U.S, it's safe to say they know how to create lash lengthening, curling, and volumizing products that people love. Anchoring their lash offerings is the They're Real! Mascara family. You're likely familiar with They're Real! Lengthening Mascara, which has garnered praise from makeup artists and Byrdie editors alike. But today, meet the newest mascara launch from Benefit Cosmetics: the They're Real! Magnet Mascara. Unlike traditional falsies, magnetic lashes do not require glue for application. Instead, you line your lid with a magnetic liner, which has a similar look and feel to liquid eyeliner and attracts the magnets that line the band of each lash. They'll always ensure a secure hold of your falsies, and sometimes, they'll provide a high-pigmented eyeliner look, too. As well as a pair of waterproof lashes, you’ll also get a liquid liner (with an ultra-fine tip for perfect precision), a pair of tweezer-style lash applicators, and a touch-up pen that removes smudges, which proved to be handy for our tester, who admitted they were not so well-versed in applying liquid liner. Things did get a little messy. That said, this liner was also one of the easiest to remove and came off well with a gentle cleansing oil. Aim to apply your regular eyeliner prior to topping it with a magnetic one. Keep in mind that the kind of eyeliner that usually comes in a kit with magnetic eyelashes might not be the one that you're used to. I, for one, am not as good with a traditional liquid eyeliner as I am with a felt tip marker. So if I'm going for a crisp cat-eye look, I'll make sure to draw my wing first, then outline the rest of the shape and fill the rest in with the magnetic liner. That way, you can achieve a cleaner and sharper result every time.

The force of the magnet is subtle, so you can't feel it working — but you can see the results immediately. I usually spend loads of time trying to get my brush into every little nook and cranny of my eye, but the magnetic pull of this formula against the brush does all of that for me. So not only do my lashes look longer and fuller than normal, I can get them that way in a fraction of the time. Magnets are usually heavy, but this magnet mascara is light as air. When applied, you can barely feel the lightweight formula, which is why lashes stay lifted all day long. We have BIG beauty news; Benefit, the UK’s number 1 premium mascara brand has a new launch! The best-selling they’re Real! range, known for its ‘lashes beyond belief’ formulas, is welcoming a new product to its line-up, and it’s unlike anything we’ve seen before! Drumroll please (and a sharp intake of breath) for the Benefit They’re Real Magnet Extreme Lengthening & Powerful Lifting Mascara. But, how do they work? Thanks to tiny magnets embedded in each strip, magnetic eyelashes adhere to your lids (with the help of a magnetic eyeliner), leaving them looking fuller, longer, and more dramatic. If used properly, magnetic lashes won’t cause damage to your natural lashes at all.

These lashes are much kinder to your natural lashes (and your wallet) than regular salon treatments, and, with proper care, you can get up to 30 wears out of them. The length it gave my lashes, it was like magic! Where did they come from? I genuinely believe the effect this mascara gives is like an LVL lash lift! Those who prefer a more dramatic lash look should try these, although it can take a little time to get the right amount of eyeliner on. If you’re using a full strip lash, measure it from corner to corner and trim if necessary. Apply your liner and then, looking downwards into a magnifying mirror, gently press the lash onto your lid. Using an eyelash holder or pair of tweezers will make it less fiddly. Are magnetic lashes safe and hygienic?The nifty magnetic mineral-enriched formula is what steals the show in this mascara. The innovative ingredient works with the magnetically charged brush core to lengthen lashes by 40% for 36 hours. For full disclosure, I’m a big and bold lash type gyal. In fact, I like my lashes as dramatic as a good Hollywood movie, with a touch of reality of course. However, I hate faffing with falsies, so I spend a lot of time hunting for new mascaras that will give me maximum volume and curl with minimal effort. I’m a fan of Benefit mascaras and my expectations were very high, because if we’re talking ‘They’re Real!’ but better, I know we are about to hit iconic grounds. Applying these lashes comes with a small learning curve: The liner is smaller than most and hard to hold when applying. However, once the liner is conquered, applying the falsies is simple. In fact, our tester dubbed it “a breeze.” Made from high-quality, synthetic fibers, these magnetic lashes look just like a fresh set of lash extensions. With 12 magnets included on the strip, you also don’t have to worry about the band slipping and sliding out of place. If you have larger eyes, consider yourself blessed—you’re spared from the annoyance of cutting and shaping faux lashes. These lashes from MoxieLash are on the larger side, so if you have long eyes, these are a great option to consider. Larger strips have the potential to be more irritating since they cover more area, but that’s not the case with these lashes. We liked how comfortable they felt once they adhered to the magnetic liner; we couldn’t feel the magnets at all, even when we blinked or moved our eyes around. Though they have a cat-eye shape, they don’t look too fake and provide a touch of glam perfect for a party or special event. Just keep in mind that once they attach to the liner, they’re super strong. If you need to readjust, you may have to use a little extra effort.

One coat later and I was pretty impressed. If I was going out of the house I would definitely go in with another coat or two, as the mascara definitely focuses on length over volume (thanks to the magnetic fibres which cling to the ends of your lashes as you pull the wand away).By the evening, there was a slight transfer on my eyelids, which I usually expect as my skin can be quite oily. However, the staying power was proved by the removal process, requiring a little more elbow grease and good faith to remove all traces. The lashes are easy to remove though, and the eyeliner rubbed off well with an oil-based cleanser. These ones are reusable up to 15 times. The one thing I really don’t get is why the call it magnetic because that’s not actually how it works. But anyway, Santhilea’s Magnetic Lash Mascara comes with two products; a mascara and a lash builder and has a simple 1-2-1 application process. First apply a coat of the Magnetic Mascara and then gently apply the lash builder, which contains lots of soft little fibers. The key is to apply the fibres evenly, concentrating on the ends. Now apply another coat of the Magnetic Mascara, smoothing and sealing the fibres using long brush strokes. Gently comb the mascara over the top rather than zig-zagging and ensure that each lash is thoroughly covered with Magnetic Mascara, to hold the fibres in place. And voila now you have long, fluttery lashes! You can repeat steps two and three as many times as you like, depending on just how long and va-va-voom you want your lashes to be.Eye Size and Shape: The size and shape of your eyes are important details to keep in mind when shopping for magnetic lashes. If you have big eyes, the Moxie Lash Magnetic Eyelashes might fit you best. Alternatively, if you have smaller eyes, the Ardell Magnetic Gel Liner and Lash Set wowed us an option for those with tinier eyes. Those with hooded eyelids, for example, should look for a lash strip that has longer lashes in the middle (like the Velour Lashes No Trim No Measure Magnetic Lash Kit), which can help open up your eyes. Its long name is fitting because length is exactly what you can expect from this magnetic mascara. But in true Benefit style, that’s not it. Scroll to find out exactly why we’re tipping this lengthening mascara to be the next big thing in our no holds barred review.
