TRIED & TESTED: Covergirl - Lash Blast Fusion

When I’m asked about my favourite brand for mascara, my answer is always Covergirl. It’s affordable, it’s effective and the bright orange Lash Blast is in my all-time top 3. But what about the Lash Blast Fusion?

The words ‘Easy. Breezy. Covergirl.‘ have been imprinted into my brain ever since my sisters and I watched America’s Next Top Model when we were younger. While Tyra Banks was teaching all of this to smize, my affinity with the brand grew stronger. A couple of years later, my sister brought me my first Lash Blast home from her internship in Washington. Since then, I’ve always had a Covergirl mascara stashed away somewhere.

The product

Since I love the original Lash Blast so much, I decided to try the Lash Blast Fusion. It’s marketed as a ‘supersizing fiberstretch mascara formula‘. To be fair: it’s not that different from the original Lash Blast. It comes in a bright purple tube, but the wand pretty much looks te same. The effect is similar, too.

The review

Covergirl’s Lash Blast Fusion has a bulky, comb-like wand that doesn’t look like it will work in your outer corners, but it does. It manages to grip every lash from bottom to top and coats it in a jet-black layer of product. It holds well throughout the day and even survives some light Netflix-induced crying.

The formula is a bit thicker than the original Lash Blast, giving you more volume but also some extra clumps. I let these dry and just take them off with my fingertips and it looks fine. It’s not the most voluminous formula I’ve tried, but it’s a good option for everyday use. Because of the extra clumps, I don’t prefer this one over the original Lash Blast.

The price

Lash Blast Fusion mascara by Covergirl retails for about $ 6. If you’re Belgium, you can find it in selected Delhaizes for € 10,89.
