L'Oreal Double Extend Eye Illuminator Review

So the mascara has two ends, one is a typical mascara, which on its own I love, it really lengthens my lashes.  Then the other end is the Illuminating side, basically a side that is supposed to make your eyes sparkle (and I love sparkles!).  The regular mascara is applied first then you can add the illuminating sparkles.

The brush on the sparkly side is interesting, it took some getting used to.  I really like the rounded applicator tip for my bottom lashes, but the more traditional mascara brush is what I use to apply the "sparkle" on my top lashes.

The sparkles comes in different colors to compliment your eyes.  I was super excited about this mascara, like really really really excited.  I loved the L'Oreal Double Extend Lash Boosting Mascara and I really wanted to love the Eye Illuminating mascara.  I thought it would sparkle and make my eyes look incredible.  It wasn't that spectacular.  I only noticed a few specs of sparkle as I was applying it, but nothing really popped out like I hoped it would have.  I don't think I would buy it again, it was a bit of a let down but I used some CVS extrabucks and a coupon so I didn't pay too much for it.
