BenefitThey're Real! Lengthening & Volumizing Mascara
What we say
This award-winning mascara has been a cult favourite of beauty editors and makeup artists ever since its launch, even earning a place in the Vogue 100 Beauty Hall of Fame. If you haven’t tried it yet, now is the time to get acquainted! The specially designed wand delivers superior length, volume and definition to achieve show-stopping lashes. The longwearing formula won’t smudge or dry out, so you can go from office to party without having to re-apply.
What it is:A lengthening and volumizing mascara from Benefit that curls, lifts and separates lashes for a dramatic look.
What it does:
This breakthrough bestseller brings out the best of your lashes! Featuring a specially designed brush, its staggered bristles get in close to the root to boost length and add incredible volume. Using precision bristles, the custom-domed tip lifts, defines and curls even the tiniest lashes. Made with a glossy, jet-black, long-wearing formula, this mascara lets you flaunt and flutter your luxurious, silky lashes without worrying about smudges, clumps, or drying.
What else you need to know:
For extra curl and length, apply Benefit’s Roller Lash first to curl and lift your lashes. Then layer They’re Real! mascara on top.
Directions
Position wand horizontally & wiggle Benefit They're Real! Beyond Mascara from side to side, base to tip, to achieve maximum volume, length & lift. Hold wand vertically & stroke upward to curl & separate. Layer generously as desired.

Worst mascara ever purchased
Easily the worst mascara I’ve ever had. Black smudges all around my eyes. Even when only put on the top lashes- there’s smudges under lower lashes. Give me a £10 maybeline any day over this. Straight to the bin, waste of £27 and really so shocked at the good reviews..,

Wand is dangerous
The mascara itself is quite thick and holds the lashes up well without them looking too clumpy. It does volumise them. It is difficult to get off when removing makeup but I haven’t noticed it flaking much.
However the mascara wand is killer. There have been a many where I stabbed myself in the eye because the wand is so spiky and pointy. This makes it difficult to coat your lashes fully as if you get too close to the waterline/bases of the lashes you will hurt yourself. I’m in pain as I write this. Won’t be buying again.

Best mascara ever
Hands down the best mascara for volume and length. It is very bold and pigmented so i use mostly when going out and no for day to day. Doesn’t run! At all. I was wearing it in a water park and nothing. Also the brush is amazing.

Poor formula - smudges and crumbles
I purchased this instead of my usual Bad Gal mascara and at first I thought it was good as lashes looked really good but then I realised throughout the day that it just crumbles all down your face and it leaves black marks on your lids and undereye. Even after using makeup remover and face cleanser I still woke up the day after with panda eyes. Unfortunately, I won't be purchasing this again.
