  • lash blash fufsion is my favorite mascara! however i think thatit should be a dollar or two less

  • Wow you hit the nail on the head. I had no idea why when I bought a new Lash Blast it seemed different and wasn't working as well as the first one I bought. I didn't realize they changed the formula from the original...I just thought they changed the name. Now it makes sense! But now I'm pissed lol.

  • hi can you recomend a good mascara that lenghens and volumizes?

  • I still have the old orange one lol..and I love it! It makes my lashes look way longer!

  • can u just get to the point which ones better

  • so.. which one do u like better? everyone reply so i can see which one people like better(:

  • i love your reviews, you're such a smart consumer :)

    i have one question, what do you use to remove Lash Blast Waterproof? I want to try it but I've read that it is extremely hard to take off.

    Thanks! :)

  • are there fibers in either of these? I heard there were....

  • @bluetigressemoon These are not fiber mascaras.

  • Can you do a review for Almay's one coat nourishing thickening mascara?

  • the fusion is my most favorite mascara ever along with l'oreal's voluminous carbon black ! (: btw, what color is you hair in this video ? like, what color/brand did you use to dye it?

  • @TeexAyyProductions In this video my hair was red with super dark brown in the front. It was colored at a local salon so I did not use box dye and can't tell you much more. I'm sorry.

  • ur eyes r a really pretty color!

  • the fusion mascara works okay for me! However the bristles on the brush are a bit too stubby XP

  • They are the same i just stay to the orange tbe because its cheaper at target (:

  • Hm. I remember using the orange tube and getting better results than fusion, but that was a year ago and I just started using fusion now. It gives too much of a natural look for my tastes, so I just use it as a back up...lol *only bought it because it was on sale at costcos*

  • HA HA HA and to think I was going to buy the Lash Blast Volume orignal when I already have the Lash Blast Fusion. I noticed the significant similarities in the applicators when I went to Target today which stopped me from purchasing it. Then I did some research maybe thought the formula was different, came to your video and you now 100% prove that yes they're the same. Thanks for reassurance!!!!

  • the orange one is for volume. the purple one is for volume and length. ive tried both, and i looooove them < 3

  • No, you're not being paranoid. It's a marketing gimmick that every company uses to "relaunch" a product, they just give it a different name. They think we're all stupid, I guess. Love this video! Thought about trying CoverGirl mascaras again, haven't worn them in years. I like a mascara that really thickens as well and lengthens. Does this (or these) do that? I like a "fake" lash look. Or is this more for daytime?

  • theyre exactly the same...............

  • i have Lash Blast Luxe . only because my mom bought it for me randomely . im a die hard maybelline fan :p

  • I heard the fusion had the wand of lash blast volume and the formula of lash blast length.

  • My lash blast volume was 5 dollars at walmart lol. Oh and you should do a review on revlons coconut water foundation I think it's called haha it's a powder!

  • Comment removed

  • @vCxSorrow I don't believe I was ever "hatein on covergirl."

  • @vCxSorrow wtf is an 11 year old girl doing wearing mascara? and if you can't talk properly, why bother?

    by the way. hating is spelled with h-a-t-i-n-g. Hatein? not cool.

  • @vCxSorrow She doesnt hate it , She said it Doesnt wort for her, As she said it works diffrently for everyone , Just because it makes your lashes look "long nd beautiful " Doesnt mean it works for everyone. Great were glad it works for you , But everyone has diffrent lashes, Thanks for the Great Review Pinkiecharm :D xx

  • One of my favorite gurus said that with these mascaras, it comes down to which color you want more. The orange, or the purple.

  • awesome review :)

  • Hey uhh...pinkie. i dont know ur name. feels weird.

    I use lashblast fusion and was just interested to see what u said about it. Ive been on a brown kick lately.. chocolate gel eyeliner, but i still use black mascara.

    My big things for eyeliner is, it has to matt, not shiney, cause i take photos. and flash can make a bad mascara look white. i hate that.

    lash definition cause nobody likes lashes sticking together.

    volume and length are irrelevant cause i just apply and apply until it almost clumps

  • Thank you for this review, it helped me a lot. ;)

  • waterproof mascara comes off easy forme.

  • Ugh my mascara was 11$ uhhh super expensive or wut! D:

  • i love both mascaras , but because my lashes r naturally medium length, full , and dark it only makes them look longer, no real difference with my lashes at all :(

  • I keep hearing that wearing waterproof mascara is dangerous (lashes may fall out?) if it is used everyday. I adore this mascara but I stopped using it (lash blast volume orange tube) because of this. What's your opinion on this?

  • @spidahson The only danger in using waterproof mascara is in how you remove it. Because it's waterproof and therefore more difficult to remove with regular cleansers and makeup removers, some folks are more vigorous or rough in its removal. That is what causes eyelashes to "fall" out.

  • @pinkiecharm Olive oil is a safe way to remove it, that's what i always use.

  • @spidahson

    i HAVE to use WP because only those hold a curl and I remove them normally pretty well with mineral oil + waterproof eye makeup remover (preferably an oily one), I take my time and try not tu rub so hard.

    I've heard that Lash Blast WP is quite a challenge to remove though, I have never tried it though.

  • you're a really good reviewer :)

  • lol, I just can't stand CG at all anyway...although SOME of their lipsticks are nice. I'm a die-hard maybelline colossal fan, and I even feel like they pulled a marketing trick with the One By One mascara in the sense that it's like Colossal only with a rubbery wand.

  • Ughh the LashBlastVolume's little chode brush drives me insane. It is way too big and (contrary to your review) the bristles are noticeably more sparse and shorter; therefore giving me short, clumpy lashes.. Although it does make them really big. That being said, I found more success with LashBlastFusion. However! I recently just took the wand from the purple tube and used it with the orange mascara.. Now it's my holy grail. ;-)

  • you are really pretty!!!

  • youforgot about lash blast luxe which is the same as flash blast volume but with glitter

  • @xtinaishere I didn't forget it. I had already reviewed it before I posted this video and I didn't feel it fit in with the mascaras I was talking about in this particular video.

  • thankyou! for this review

  • @nicolejaneen Oh my lashes, the formulas work exactly the same. I always mention in mascara reviews to try and keep in mind that the mascara may work on my lashes differently than yours. Thanks for the input. :)

  • @pinkiecharm I agree I thought they were exactly the same.

  • lol!! "ughhh ..itch" : D

  • @roximorgin A waterproof mascara is just that, waterproof. Sometimes, depending on the mascara, the waterproof version might be less wet, but in general the only difference is one withstands getting wet while the other doesn't.

  • i love how you say photo:)

  • Haha, sorry if I sound stoopid right now, buuuut which would you guys prefer LB Fusion or LB Volume? x3

    Cuz I just bought the LB Volume in Waterproof, & I was thinking of getting LB Fusion normally.

  • Im loooving lashblast fusion!! Ive been looking for a really for full look...and now I got it :)

  • My eyelashes are gorgeously long and volumized and deep black. I don't even have to use mascara. But when i use fusion, it looks like i'm wearing false lashes :)

  • @sydnurbin Lucky! :$

  • from my opinion, Lashblast Fusion worked better than Lashblast Volume, it REALLY gives my lashes volume AND length :) 

  • so which one i the best?? u talk so much that u confused me! and it gets boring!

  • youre actually the most thorough reviewer ive found on youtube

  • i have lashblast fusion and it's kind of clumpy. is that normal?

  • Last blash Fusion works SOOO much better. it gives me soo much lenght and volume... now ur lashes r SUPER short so mabye u should try it... just sayin

  • @jojorocks111 My lashes aren't "super short" but are actually more an average length, not to mention the tips are very light colored. Also, I have used Lashblast Fusion, hence the title of this review. *lol*

  • LashBlast Fusion also has a little bit of sparkle in it. (:

  • i got it at walmart for 5.44 LOLOL

  • @beautyjunkiee97 lucky! mine was 7 dollars

  • hey, I was wondering if you had a suggestion for keeping the curl of my lashes. I'm asian, using the Shu Uemura eyelash curler, and the lashblast 'volume' mascara.

    Also, I was wondering if it's normal to have the black little spots when I apply the mascara. I've only used two different mascaras (telescopic, which I disliked off the bat), and I don't really want to spend 100s of dollars to try out different mascaras...

    Thanks for all your reviews! I find them very honest, and I love them!

  • I bought fusion today. I was looking at the orange and purple wands and they looked sort of the same. I just bought the purple because I figured it probably would lengthen more plus it was .50 cheaper.

    Thanks for the video, I was wondering if the formulas or something was different. Saves me the money.

    I do love how dark the roots of my lashes look with fusion. My lashes are so light and with most mascaras I can usually see my roots with most mascaras.

  • Ehh, I like volume WAY better. Its my favorite mascara. Fusion I didn't personally like that much.

  • i hate the fusion version. the only thing it has going for it is the pretty purple packaging.

  • I love these both so much your funny by the way lol

  • isn't the fusion supposed to have the length formula and the volume brush? i think it says that in one of the commercials....

  • @jmock92 The point really isn't what the commercial says, as that's how the company gets you to buy the mascara. It's more how it looks and works and these two mascaras are 99.9% identical on my lashes.

  • @pinkiecharm so... even after watching this video i decided to try it and..... i LOVE it. i have the lashblast volume as well and on my lashes anyways, theres a HUGE difference. like a half a centimeter extra length and just as much volume, but my lashes are long to begin with so idk

  • I agree with you. I bought it as well cuz I heard it can lengthen and volumizing (is that a word?). But for me, it doesn't even increase the volume all that much, I like the LashBlast Volume better, like I LOVE it. I wish I'd seen this review before I'd bought it though....waste of money....but like the comment below states....at least u can choose between purple or orange =s

  • Well, at least you get the option of choosing between an orange or a purple tube! :)

  • i understand what you're saying about mascaras working differently on different people. like with the Maybelline Colossal. so many people love it and it looks fantastic on my friend. but when she lent it to me, i had shit results. SHIT results. and i have decently long and thick black eyelashes.

  • $7-$9 dollars? americans are lucky it's $18 in australia!

  • @harmony1996 omg! i know. i hate the price of make-up in Australia.

  • @harmony1996 i feel your pain ... i really do i live in melbourne :P

  • great review! :) i love covergirl mascara!

  • You forgot to mention the pink lash blast tube. I forgot what it's called..

  • @vbuttcase last blast luxe. its just with shimmer

  • so theres basically no differnece am i right?

  • @nicoleM7677 your right

  • YYour alshes arent short, mine are the same, but overall which one would you say is better?

  • just curious, do your lashes hold curl well? because my lashes lose 80% of its curl once i put mascara on ..even the waterproof LB length didnt hold my curl

  • woohooo you always have the reviews and product comparisons im loooking for :D

  • the original version did not claim to lengthen i claimed to give you volume. the lashblast fusion claims to give both.

  • @Shangagirl When Lashblast first came out more than three years ago, it claimed to volumize and lengthen lashes. When CG released LB Length, they changed the claims of LB Volume, as well as the name to distinguish between the two.

  • i enjoy the lashblast length :). more so than volume.

  • i love this too

  • Haha the beginning is funny! I love your reviews they're awesome!

  • I'm glad they came out with lash blast fusion.. who wants an orange tube of mascara lol

  • Very helpful review! I'm a big fan of the original lashblast volume mascara (the orange one) and I was wondering if it was worth it for me to purchase the new lastblast fusion. I don't really care too much for the definition. I'm all about volumizing my thin asian lashes!

  • oh my god your lashes are INCREDIBLY short! and i thought my lashes were short...

  • @jocyboobluud Actually, they're not that short. Most of the tips of my lashes are very light in color, almost blonde and so they just look short.

  • @pinkiecharm Wow, two tone lashes? Cool! :D

  • i LOVE fusion. way better than the original or luxe

  • I like purple better than orange, but I like the volume better. I own several mascaras, and that's the one I use the most. :)

    It amazes me.

  • I just bought it yesterday before I left the US to come back to Canada.. I just wanted it since we don't have it in my part of Canada (Has any Canadian seen this in stores yet?) and I just had to have it because its purple =P.

  • @starfruitmango Actually yeah, I live in Canada and I got it from walmart today! :D

  • so your reviews on all of the lash blast mascaras really helped me decide which to buy. my local cvs had all of the lash blast mascaras on sale for $7 so I figured what the heck. I was leaning towards the luxe but then I thought I should try out the fusion because it is normally the most expensive of the 4. and I really love it! it gives me great length and separation, however not so much volume I would say. and the wand is amazing! I thought it would be difficult to use but it was almost too e

  • This is one of the most thorough and informative reviews that I have ever seen! I love how you called out CG BS. Subbed.

  • Youuu look so pretty- I love your hair!

  • what is ur most fav mascara of all time? and as of right now?

  • I agree with you on the whole shadiness on covergirl's part!

    If i love love LOVE the lashblast volume, do you think it would be stupid for me to buy the lashblast fusion because i like the color of the tube?! haha. I'm deciding for when i run out of the orange tube.

  • @neli308

    I want it for the purple tube, too.

  • The original one (waterproof) is my go-to! I actually have to get another tube now!

  • i absolutely LOVE the lashblast line! ive been using the orange origina from the beginning. i never really saw much difference in the luxe one except it made my lashes shineier, which i didnt really care about. but irecently got the orange waterproof and i LOVE it. but i dont like how if i dont get it off completley its still on my lashes. and i hate how when i go to put more on the next day with the residue still on my lids and my lashes clump.

  • you look amazing here irene!

  • lashblast fusion is acually supposed to be a mascara that over time lengthens your lashes. not identical to lash blast original. it is sorta but with the lash lengthening

  • @xxkashukgurlxx That's interesting as the CoverGirl website doesn't anything about Fusion lengthening your lashes over the long haul.

  • i wear the orange lash blast everyday :)

  • I guess it's just a matter of which color you like more, purple or orange :) (Or which one is on sale...haha)

  • @Cimorene haha

  • I LOVE YOUR EYELASHES ! does this work for curl ? I know I already commented on yur other video, but this is more updated so it may be more easier for you !: P

    (does it hold a curl for straight lashes without curling because I go in the water a lot and the curl disappears and my eyelashes don't do anything with normal mascara ! :( )

    if you can let me know lol

  • do you wear lash primer? it really helps!

  • total marketing ploy lol

  • i feel that all covergirl mascaras are the same..its something to but when you just NEED a mascara

  • can you do a video with lash blast and the MAX volume flash?

  • lol stupid covergirl jus wants our money!...does the lash blast volume make your lashes clumpy?

  • Hi Irene- I was just wondering if you ever had a problem with lenghtining mascaras making your lashes hit your glasses?

  • THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

  • I used the original LB when it first came out and it was my fav until one day I realized it just wasn't as good as I thought so I quit using. One month before the fusion release I bought it again and hated it!! So I nervously bought the fusion and it's the BEST ever!! I can totally tell a difference and there IS a difference.

  • I wish I had seen this before buying my tube of CG Fusion. I got it about the same time that this vid was made, and I've used it once. I didn't really see any difference, either. Then again, I prefer brown mascaras (which is what my regular LashBlast is), and I got Fusion in black, so at least I have the best of both worlds now!

  • so does the lashblast volume flake? i have the fusion and i dont get any black nasty stuff under my eyes at all. is the voulme like that too?

    thank you :)

  • what camera do u use

  • i freeaking love lashblast the orange one! its my fav ever! i have gone through two tubes. and so i have been wanting to try the loreal telescopic i think with the ball wand. so i bought that and then got maybelline lash stiletto and once i run out of them i am going back to lashblast and never changing cuz i love it sooooooo much!

  • I thought they applied and seemed exactly the same.

  • i really like LashBlast Luxe...

  • i'm going to buy lashblast the next time I need a mascara. I love this mascara so much. Haven't decided which one I'm gonna purchase yet. From what I can tell there isn't much of a difference.

  • lashblast fusion is supposed to be a fiberstretch mascara. (: that might be the difference. i see the fibers too, especially when i wipe the wand off. i love this mascara though, it makes my lashes very defined and long. :D

  • @kyra4ev That's interesting. I haven't seen any fibers. Funky.

  • Thank you for making this video. Plus, I finally got off my butt and researched the Luxe formula. A pretty pink tube with sparkles. Now I'm in no hurry to get new mascara.

  • I find the waterproof formula really difficult to remove. What do you use? I don't want to lose any more lashes.

  • I think your reviews are just fine :P for length.

    I have the same kind of ivory skin as you with some reddish undertones. What is your favorite kind of concealer/foundation? I've watched alot of other reviews but those people seemed to have a more bronzed skin tone or where tanned. Im as white as white can be. Could you make a review on foundations and concealer?

  • Hi, your hair looks really lovely shorter like that! Thanks for your videos, they are helping me with learning English:)

  • i bought the fusion. it works really well on my eyes. the only reason i bought it was becuase it was purple ;). but it does work!

  • your makeup is so pretty. I wish you did tutorials

  • You are right about how mascara works differently for people. So far i like the lash blast fusion the best. At first I Liked lash blast original (Now Volume) because it added volume but it began to drag down my lashes. the waterproof version smudged on me( yeah I don't get that either). Lash blast length darkened my lashes with no length then falked after a couple of hours. I never tried the Luxe.

    Been using fusion for almost a month so far so good.

  • why don't you have a disclamer anymore.

  • I am hoping the waterproof will be darker. I also loved the fact Fusion was in purple haha my fave color lol =) Thanks for this tho.

  • It looks pretty much the same...there may be a very very tiny difference, but i dont think its enough to say its different.

  • what eyelash curler do u use?

  • which one do you like better?

  • @22psh I like them about the same, but if I had to pick one I'd pick Fusion just because of the purple tube. ;)

  • LMAO! you rock. I was thinking the same thing about CG and the re-naming of LB. I can't wear it though, its the ONLY mascara that makes my eyes water for no reason whatsoever!

  • I totally agree with that the thicker the wand on the wand is, this better and easier does it code! I don't live in the US, so I can't get covergirl, but a good alternative would be max factor's false lash effect mascara! super good product you can get very cheap! If you can get your fingers on it Irene, I'd like to hear a review or something. maybe you could compare it with the covergirl mascara, I don't know. You figure it out ;-)

  • @Luller96 they don't have max factor anymore in the U.S.

  • I totally agree with you on it being a scamish thing.

    i think its pretty much crap.

    they've got like 4.. that to me, seem the exact same.

  • Thanx 4 ur helpful vid!with fusion one ur lashes looks more natural

  • The LashBlast Conspiracy Uncovered by PinkieCharm good to now. I think the main difference between mascaras is that the tube is a different color

  • these mascaras, i use over another mascara. first i'll coat my lashes with whatever mascara i happen to be using that day. and then wait maybe 30 seconds, and then apply lash blast luxe. i think over another mascara, you can create super long and dark lashes. but i am not impressed with lash blast luxe by itself. in fact, if possible, by itself it makes my eyelashes look shorter. :x

  • Thanks for the video!

    I have a hard time removing these mascaras (both the regular and waterproof)...

    Do you have the same problem?

  • @StarsNRockets110 I don't struggle to remove this mascara any more than any other. It comes off easily with Neutrogena's Oil Free Eye-Makeup Remover.

  • @pinkiecharm Thanks for the tip.

  • I like LashBlast Luxe :) it's so purrty.

    I love your reviews! So thorough and informing. Only reviews I watch.

    Awesomeness!!

  • Thanks for pointing this out!!! Totally makes sense lol

  • The cosmetic companies think we are fickle so they bring out "new" products all the time. In this case, I like the purple case better than orange. Rimmel has a pretty bright pink case with good mascara in it too.

  • Well said, Irene! :) I thought it was silly they made the 'Fusion' mascara. Yay for marketing gimmics! hehe :)

  • u know so much about mascara!!!

    really helped me out!! thanks!!

  • My daughter used to use the Lash Blast and moved to Fusion because she loves it. Now she does have dream lashes as far as being really long, thick and dark.  She said that Fusion makes her lashes feel like butterfly wings lol. I haven't tried it myself yet.

  • I wish I could find a non-animal-tested mascara as good as Covergirls Original LastBlast :/

  • Can you please do a top five favorite drugstore mascaras???

  • to me its totally different formula but with identical brushes. the fusion gave me no volume or length, it just darkened my lashes. so in other words fusion was a fail. lash blast gives me the best volume and pretty decent length than any other high end mascara i've used.

  • What kind of eyeliner do you use or recommend? I do not use waterproof makeup.

  • thankyou!! i love your videos i love the way you wear your eye shadow @ especially the money you save me i just want to buy it all! my husband loves that ha ha thankyou again hey irene i made my own eye primer im sure the purple bottle is better u know the one oh well works for me thanks again! u r awesome!

  • Excellent review!  It was very helpful.

  • I lol'ed so hard when you called b.s., (thanks, I needed that), also... are we surprised? Wasn't Cover Girl the same one who had Drew Barrymore in some lip product advert, with a bold lip, but the actual color she was "wearing" looking nothing like it?

  • can you please make your reviews quicker..they are so long and such little content!! otherwise i like you a lot :-D

  • @purpleshik My reviews have little content? Interesting. Please explain that. As I have always said, my reviews are as long as they need to be in order for me to give out all the information that I feel is necessary. I like to be thorough. If you have an issue with the length, you are more than welcome to fast-forward through any parts you find uninteresting.

  • @purpleshik

    To be honest, I found the review helpful as usual. She pointed out details that I, myelf could see (from what I saw in the video). I haven't tried the Lashblast Fusion but she hits the mark with all the provided details.

  • I remember the Max Factor brand had one that looked like those. And honestly I thought it did better.
