FAIRYDROPS Scandal Queen Mascara

I opened up my Manly palette for the first time in awhile, and look. Can you guess what has vexed me this morning?
In case the picture is unclear, take a good look at the culprit. All over my other shadows and the whole drawer is covered in pearly yellow eyeshadow.
Argh!! The reason for this post is for this, the FAIRYDROPS Scandal Queen Mascara. It looks ever so pretty, but the price is not so nice for $24 at Sephora. I don't have a good picture of my lashes with this mascara, so bear with me. I got one for my sister for her birthday because she was lemming this after a you tube video, and got one for myself to try. Remember ladies, do not share your mascara with anyone.

I loved the brush. It got into every corner of my lashes but the brush can be a bit bulky to work with. I ended up getting quite a bit of mascara onto my lids. This coming from a girl who worships Diorshow mascara, sounds ridiculous, but I had to clean up a lot.
This lengthened my lashes quite a bit, but also volumized my lashes as well. It helped keep the curl, but I wouldn't buy this mascara again. Here comes its bad points. This flaked on me like crazy, after five minutes of application. This didn't happen to my sister and she loves this mascara, so I don't know what happened. The formula is a bit thick, and can get too clumpy with two coats. Thin coats seem to be the key here but I have a feeling that this mascara will dry out quickly and for its over the twenty dollar price, it just doesn't work well enough. I don't want a high maintenance mascara because I tend to just swipe and go so this will not be repurchased. If you have time to work with this mascara, maybe it won't be so bad, but maybe I'll just keep the brush and use it with a different mascara.
