Review: Comparing Guerlain mascaras Le 2 and Maxi Lash

Today I compared two Guerlain mascaras.

I had worn each individually, but never compared them against each other.

Le 2
I like the wand. The twist is quite ergonomically pleasing. The lower lash brush is teensy and works very well for both the lower lashes and the little lashes in the upper inner corners of your eyes.

I also have an Avon dual one, but I prefer the Guerlain. I'll have to do a side by side comparison, which I haven't done.

Tarte has a mascara which is supposed to be the only one for lower lashes, but I know both the Guerlain and Avon were on the market. It might be one that is only for the lower lashes. I have not seen it or tried it. Have you? Have you compared it to the Guerlain?

Maxi Lash
I recently received a full sized one as a gwp. It has a very pretty container:

I couldn't see any particular difference in appearance between the two. This picture was taken after wearing it for a full day, even with some rain.

Both held up equally well. Neither of them smudged. They both felt light weight. Neither one bothers my eyes.

Take your pick! The Le 2 is more expensive, but if you want to try the tiny brush, this is the one to get.

Enjoy!

Unless I wear waterproof mine smudges, and even sometimes with waterproof I’ll smudge. So I don’t tend to wear mascara on the lower lashes, to prevent smudging. Instead I almost always line the lash line or lower water line.

What’s your favorite mascara?

I almost always line the lower lashline too, and now the waterline.

I like any mascara that doesn’t bother my eyes. I’m not good about removing it all at night, so sometimes that is the deciding factor, if the skin around my eyes is red in the morning. But sometimes that happens during the day.

I kind of liked the look with no mascara on my lower lashes, but my kids all voted in favor of mascara.
