Model Co fibre lash mascara review

As someone with short straight eyelashes, mascara is pretty much an everyday essential for me. Model Co fibre lash mascara promises to give the effect of brush on false eyelashes, a claim that I was very keen to test out:

Model Co fibre lash mascara comes in 2 parts, a black extension mascara and the brush on fibres (which in the tube, looks like strands of cotton wool). Application was easy enough, you simply apply a coat of the black mascara, wait for it to dry, add on a coat of the brush on fibres, then finish it off with another coat of the black extension mascara.

It felt quite odd to be using fibres as a mascara base and it certainly looked rather comical! Luckily a second coat of the black extension mascara soon covers all the white bits. As you can see from the photo, it's not as dramatic as having false eyelashes, but compared to a normal mascara, it definitely helps to add some extra length and volume.

Model Co fibre lash mascara lasts relatively well throughout the day, and it was quick and easy to remove using my usual Bioderma cleanser. Because it's a 3 step application process, I wouldn't use this every day. However, on weekends and special occasions, it's definitely worth taking a little extra time for a more dramatic effect.
