BenefitBADgal BANG! - Volumizing Mascara
Product Description
What we say
Now, this is bad in the good way; voluminous, carbon black and gravity-defying. Joining Benefit’s line up of cult mascaras, BADgal BANG has been 4 years in the making and it is certainly worth the wait. The lightweight formula contains aero-particles, derived from space technology, so lashes look bold and beautiful for up to 36 hours.
You don't have to be in your villain era to embrace BADgal beauty. (But if you were, we'd totally support you…). Besides, who doesn't love a little drama? An intense electric purple lash that's all volume, no weight? Oh, yeah. With BADgal BANG! volumizing mascara, every swipe lays on 360° fullness that lasts 36 hours* without smudging. So if you wanna be a little bad, we're good with that.*Instrumental test on 21 participants

Cute but smudges easily
Love how it looks but if you have oily eyelids then powder them before using this as it smudges badly

Great for straight lashes
As someone with straight lashes, this is the only mascara I’ve tried that gives me volume without sticking my lashes together!

Is this mascara water-based (i.e. suitable to use with lash extensions/lash lift)?
Im afraid i cant answer your question regarding using this product on lash extensions etc , but when i used this mascara i found it smudged quite a bit throughout the day wearing it , i found Benefit Theyre Real mascara much better - never smudged once through a 12 hr shift !! Hope this helps ??

Is badgal bang mascara suitable for contact lens wearers
Hi,
Great choice of product!
Yes the Benefit BADgal BANG! Mascara is indeed suitable for contact lens wearers.
For an ultra curled lash, try using some eyelash curlers before applying your mascara!
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you need any more help.

How do you rate this compared to the ‘They’re Real’ mascara? As this is the one I would usually use but intrigued to try this one...
Hello,
The Benefit BADgal BANG! Mascara Black 8.5g is designed to give up to 36 hours of massive volume! It will give you root to tip coverage that instantly lifts and volumises that lashes as well as helping to strength them. This is water resistant and smudge proof!
The Benefit They're Real! Beyond Mascara 8.5g is designed to lift, curl and lengthen your lashes. It also has a long wear which visibly separates the lashes to give a natural lash effect. This is also smudge proof!
If you are looking for volume definitely go for the BADgal BANG! - if you are looking for lengthening, go for the They're Real!
Thanks, Billie - Senior Beauty Expert
