I was recently contacted by a company who wanted to know if I would be interested in testing out a new product that is currently on the market. For the record, I get a lot of offers and only accept the ones that I would purchase with my own money to try. With that said, I did say yes to the product that they had mentioned. This product is by Anastasia Beverly Hills. We all know Anastasia as a brow genius. Who knew that she was also a lash genius as well! The product is called just that, "Lash Genius". When you apply this to any mascara it makes it waterproof. I know some of you might be thinking why not just go buy waterproof? There are actually many reasons to purchase Lash Genius instead of a waterproof mascara.
The first think that the makeup artist in me thought of was for my clients. I usually tell my clients to bring their favorite mascara if they have one to their makeover. Unfortunately, I find a lot of brides bringing me non waterproof mascara for their special day. I always end up using my waterproof so they don't run into any problems. I thought that this product would be wonderful to be able to make any mascara they bring me waterproof!
For me personally, waterproof mascara is a staple in my makeup bag and has been for years. The problem with that is when a new mascara debuts on the market 9 times out of 10 it does not come in waterproof. Sometimes it actually doesn't ever come in waterproof. I used to have this problem working at cosmetic counters. I thought that Lash Genius would be a perfect solution to my dilemma.
I couldn't wait to try out this product once I received it. I had just received a free gift at Sephora that featured a Bare Escentials Buxom Mascara, that I couldn't use because it was not waterproof until now. I put on the Buxom and then added two coats of the Lash Genius on top and there you have it, instant waterproof mascara. It was actually a good thing that my allergies were acting up today because I was able to put this product to the test. I will tell you that it absolutely worked. No smudges or black under my eyes all day long. I really am amazed at how well this product worked. I think I will be wearing this on my sons graduation from high school next week!!!!
This product is a total must have in my beauty bag and my client makeup kit! If you don't like to wear waterproof on a regular basis but know there are times you will need it, Lash Genius is the perfect solution. This also came right off with waterproof eye makeup remover that I currently use. I actually found it much easier to take off compared to the waterproof mascara I was wearing. Here is a photo of the product along with a video that shows how to use this amazing product!

I am so happy that I was able to test this product and share my findings with all of you! If you have any questions please comment below or email me. You can also ask me on Twitter!
I did want to mention that I was not compensated for reviewing this product. The product was sent to me for review and I always will give my 100% honest opinion.
In the case of finding an amazing product that will allow me to expand my mascara wardrobe to many instead of one - This case is SOLVED!
