Review - Australis Lash TLC Mascara

I'm a drugstore mascara girl, I don't see the point in spending $$$ buying luxury brand mascaras that will only last about 2 months... I mean, some of them cost upwards of $50aud! So when I was offered to try the Australis Lash TLC Mascara I immediately agreed because I've used their mascaras before and never had problems with it. Plus this one has lash conditioning vitamin E in it to nourish, so it can only be a good thing!


It comes in a fantastic bright pink metallic tube. The colour was just too difficult to capture on film though.



The wand is tapered at the tip which makes it easy to get to those corner lashes.


And it both lengthens and thickens, as the pictures show.




What I like about it
  • Lengthens and thickens (I can't comment on the curling factor as my lashes are naturaly curled so I never see a difference in curl).
  • Doesn't flake
  • Lasts the whole day until I'm ready to take it off
  • Doesn't feel dry and "crunchy" on the lashes
  • Inexpensive - $14.95 rrp and avalable in Priceline, Target, Big W, and many other places

What I don't like
  • Colour - It's not that I don't like it, but my personal preference is for really really really black mascara, as with my colouring anything less makes my eyes look washed out. I was given blackest black but it's still not black enough for my complexion. This would be perfect for fairer complexioned ladies though or those who'd like a more natural colour to their lashes.
Would I purchase? - YES, but only if there is a darker black out there.

Have you tried Australis mascaras before?

  5. @vintage makeup - yeah it's definitely great at lengthening! Love it!

    @Ling Tung - the packaging is just fab! I saw your review of the eyeliner, looks pretty great but I'm hopeless at liquid liners so I'll give it a miss.

    @Emily - thanks babe, but as you can see in the pics the mascara helped a lot!

    @Superficial Sydney - yeah you definitely need one for yourself too!

  6. I like the sounds of lengthening and thickening of lashes! And it really did make a difference on your lashes. You have beautiful long lashes Lilit. Mine are short and sparse AND hard to curl. Lol.
    Im intersted in Australis' limited edition lipsticks. They have nice shades :D

    Ooh you're heading to Inglot? Lemming on anything or just browsing? :D

  7. Hi Lilit,

    your lashes looks super long with that mascara. I think that is a perfect colour for me. Sometimes I like it dark black, but most of the times I use a coloured mascara. That suits me better, because I´m to pale.
