Estée Lauder Sumptuous Bold Volume Lifting mascara is a tough mascara for me to review, because I feel like my experience with it has been very inconsistent. The first time I discovered this mascara was via a deluxe sample and I fell completely in love with it! It wasn’t the most volumising mascara, but it gave my lashes such amazing length, I was blow away! So I decided to take the plunge and purchase a full sized version.
That’s when the story changes, the mascara never performed as well as I remembered it. It’s not terrible at all, it gives my lashes some volume and decent length. It’s a good mascara, doesn’t smudge, lasts the entire day and can easily be removed with some cleansing oil.
But it just wasn’t as impressive as I found the sample to be. Which honestly influenced my perception of it. Even though it is a good mascara, I probably won’t buy it again just because my expectations had been set so high. Sounds unfair doesn’t it? It’s still a great mascara, but I don’t feel compelled to keep purchasing it given the wide array of other luxury mascara that are out there for me to try
If you’re interested, you can purchase this online for $26USD (I used a mail forwarding service).
