This or That: Benefit Roller Lash Vs. Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascaras

Whew! I feel like I was gone for ages, and I missed being here. Today, I'm keeping things light, short, and sweet, with a This or That featuring my favorite makeup item: mascara. My This or That series compares two similar beauty products. So exactly what am I comparing? Two new mascaras by Benefit and Maybelline.

Benefit Roller Lash

• $24
• Sephora, ULTA, online
• "An innovative mascara with a 12-hour setting formula that hooks, lifts, and curls lashes. "

Maybelline Lash Sensational

• $8.99 ( /-)
• Drugstores, online
• "First patented fanning brush with 10 layers of bristles to reveal a full flourish of lashes. Liquid Ink formula coats from all sides for a sensational full fan effect."

This or That:

• I really, really love both mascaras and would repurchase both. Maybelline delivers a fuller look with a much wetter mascara formula. I love the different sizes of bristles. It did flake a little--Maybelline mascaras tend to do that on me, but lasted a full day of wear.
• Benefit Roller Lash has the cutest packaging and does what it says--it lifts and curls lashes. You can see it gave me longer lashes than the Maybelline mascara. It is still a "wet" formula but not as clumpy. It gave me more length than volume and did not smudge or flake after a day's wear.
• This comes down to personal preference and budget. You can't go wrong with either.

Extra Elle:

• I've two amazing giveaways in the previous--seriously, go check them out.
• As for my family news I shared in previous post's video, we are taking it day by day. I am sharing this news in a guest post that I am so proud of. It's one of my most personal posts and I would appreciate it if you checked it out HERE. Thanks.
