Presenting..Fresh Supernova Mascara! I like FRESH products- their lip treatments are awesome and I’ve wandered in one of their skincare events and everything seemed great. Then this guy comes along….
Thank goodness my friend gave this mini mascara to me she got from a Fresh set because she had too many mascaras. Thank goodness it’s such a small size so I don’t regret thinking a lot of money was put into this. First, I’ll present the details from the product description on Sephora.

A full sized tube is $28CAD/ $25USD- pretty hefty..and not worth it; which is why I’m posting on this!
I tried to look at this positively; there’s good ingredients put into this mascara-it conditions lashes, it strengthens lashes…and no alcohol! (But then, there’s parabens! ) And when I tried this on, I saw volume and thought this mascara would be great! The formula is black, thick, and goopy- but I got noticeable volume which I adored. Also, my lashes were extremely black.
However, my lashes weren’t very and separated. Even worse, not even an hour later, I see dark, jet black dots and smudges under my eye! Thank goodness I was still at home or I would have looked like a train wreck. I even tried wearing this over primer, but to no avail, this mascara is a fail!
I don’t recommend this. Drugstore mascaras have shown more promise!
