Essence Volume Stylist 18hr Lash Extension Mascara is to die for, but sadly, due to limited availability, Essence mascaras get sold out within a short period of time. Mascaras are my absolute favorites. It can totally take your look from 0-100 in a moment.
For a person who has a mascara obsession and owns over 10 mascaras (sounds small for a beauty blogger), I can totally vouch whether a mascara is worth the money or not. Essence has been one of my favorite brands ever. Their mascaras I love the Essence Lash Princess Mascara and the I love Extreme Crazy Mascara. Want to know how this mascara fares for me? Then read it till the end to find out.

The WAND:
The wand is very special. It is tapered around the end and bulges out in the center. This ensures that you get maximum volume in the center, while its easier to apply in the inner and outer corners of your lashes.
TEXTURE:
It has a wet texture to it, just like the Essence Lash Princess Sculpted Volume Mascara, which takes a bit of time to dry down.

My review of Essence Volume Stylist 18hr Lash Extension Mascara
It is a good mascara at this price range which has a long-lasting formula. It lengthens your lashes and even provides a bit of volume. Your lashes are well separated but after two coats, it does clump a bit. It contains a fiber releasing brush which adds fibers to your lashes which gives them volume and lengthens them.
In the picture above, I have not curled my lashes just to show the difference and the real worth of the mascara. You can see that it definitely defines my lashes and makes a difference. The wand is specially designed to reach the smallest lashes which are often left out. The formula is not waterproof which makes it perfect for everyday usage and is not harsh on the lashes. But also after 7-8 hours of usages, it does smudges on the lower lash line, so the 18h claim is not true.
PROS:
- Lengthens your lashes
- Provides a bit of volume
- Separates your lashes
- Contains a special wand that coats even the smallest lashes
- Perfect for everyday usages
- Stays for about 7-8 hours
- Travel-friendly
- Affordable
- Cute packaging
CONS:
- Smudges on the lower lash line
- Has a wet texture that takes time to dry down
RATINGS: 4/5
