Benefit’s They’re Real line of products has been on the market for a while, and I would like to share my thoughts on it with you.
They’re Real mascara was first introduced in 2011 and quickly gained popularity, becoming the top-selling mascara at various retailers. Benefit heavily promoted it, and three years later, it continues to lead in sales.
This was my second time trying the mascara, but unfortunately, I did not enjoy it more than my first experience.
The pros:
– Very black formula
– No clumping
– Separates lashes well
– Provides good volume
– Gives a stunning look
The cons:
– Large brush
– Hard plastic bristles that can be harsh
– Smudges under the eyes
– Difficult to remove completely
– Formula can make lashes stiff and fall out
Despite the positive results, this mascara is not suitable for me due to its drawbacks. For a similar price, you can find alternative products that offer similar or better results without the issues of smudging or difficulty in application.
Benefit also introduced the They’re Real Push-Up Liner, the first-ever lash-hugging gel lining in a pen. The matte black gel formula promises to stay put without smudging or drying out, with the AccuFlex™ Tip for precise application.
The pros:
– Very dark black formula
– Long-wearing without smudging
– Easy-to-use design
– Great for creating a thicker line along the lashline
The cons:
– Thick gel that dries quickly
– Difficult to achieve a precise thin line
– Excess product dispensing
– Application can be challenging due to the thickness of the gel
While the concept of the Push-Up Liner is innovative, the execution needs improvement in terms of formula consistency and applicator design.
The They’re Real Remover was designed to effectively remove the long-lasting formulas of both the mascara and eyeliner.
Pros:
– Suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers
Cons:
– Ineffective in removing makeup thoroughly
– Expensive compared to similar products
In summary, although Benefit’s They’re Real line offers innovative products, they may not be suitable for everyone due to certain drawbacks and performance issues. It’s essential to consider personal preferences and needs when deciding whether to invest in these products.
