Some of you may have seen my post on the Benefit They're Real Mascara here, in which I said the for me, it just wasn't worth all the hype as it made my lashes look clumpy and dried really fast. I just didn't get on with it. I actually picked up the Collection Does It All Mascara 5 in 1, when I left the house without mascara one morning, it was cheap and I thought it would do the job. It wasn't until I got home I realised that the brush was pretty much exactly the same as the Benefit one but a little longer! It also had some of the same claims as the Benefit one and I instantly realised this was a dupe! I actually put them both on different eyes one day (after spending ages separating my lashes, thanks Benefit) and noone could tell I had two different mascaras on. The collection one is definitely a lot easier to get off as well. I actually preferred how the Collection one made my eyelashes look as they were seperated and looked more lifted and voluminous. For me this is a definite dupe if not a little better for us long eyelashed girls! It's definitely worth a go at £4.99 compared to £19.50! Collection is available in Boots and Superdrug and have brought us a few gems over the years definitely try them!

I'm not a fan of They're Real either, so will have a look at this one - the finish is definitely similar!
ReplyDeleteIt is honestly so similiar and worth the price xx
Deletewow the results are really similar!
ReplyDeleteI know its so good! xx
DeleteThey look identical to me! I like super thick lashes so they're real was never one of my favourite mascaras anyway but this is an amazing dupe! x
ReplyDeleteI know I'm more of a thick lashes than adding length but I actually really like the collection one! xx
DeleteI'm surprised with the similarity, I've tried They're Real and it just doesn't get on well with me! I'll have to try this as it's soo affordable

I'ts definitely worth giving it a go! xx
DeleteOh wow the brushes are almost identical! I'm a big fan of They're Real, but not so much the price, so if there's a £4.99 dupe then I'm sold. I think my mum will probably be glad to hear this as well as she hates parting with nearly £20 for it so usually stocks up when the samples are attached to magazines!
