Clé de Peau Beauté best Lash Mascara: So close to best That It almost Makes Up for the cost

Clé de Peau Beauté best Lash Mascara in Black ($50)
Clé de Peau Beauté best Lash Mascara may be the most expensive mascara I’ve ever touched.

It’s $50! — a cost that makes Guerlain Cils D’Enfer, Chanel Le volume and YSL artificial Cils look like castoffs in a discount rate bin.

Holy crap, this tube is $50!
Logically, I understand that it’s completely outrageous to even consider a mascara that costs as much as two bags of groceries at Trader Joe’s (that’s a great deal of Pretzel Slims), but oh, my gosh, it’s the mutha-truckin’ ish.

I don’t have a great deal to work with in the lash department naturally, but when I wear best Lash, I look like I got lash extensions in Beverly Hills. My short, wispy lashes look impeccably long, lifted and defined, and I feel like a 1940s screen siren when she bats her eyes.

One layer works well, but I like two.

Perfect Lash also has a water resistant formula and doesn’t smudge or flake.

Thankfully for pocketbooks everywhere, it does have flaws…like it’s extremely difficult to remove. So difficult that I feel like I’m providing myself a deep-tissue massage when I go to take it off. It takes two rounds of DHC Cleansing Oil, and then one pump of Neutrogena gentle Cleanser.

If it were $25 cheaper, I’d utilize this and never look back…
