What the gurus are saying

The finished lash effect earns clear praise from those who've tested it, with one noting the dramatic lift from lash to lash and reaching for the full size after trying the travel version. Another expert has made it a regular part of their routine. That said, not many gurus have weighed in on this one yet, so there's not a lot to go on so far.

"I have the Bad Gal Bang from Benefit and I really really like this. I got this in a kit, the little travel one, I thought it was so good I bought the big one which then broke and leaked immediately and I had to throw it out. I did buy a replacement which I have at home and I wear it all the time. I think it's excellent."

"I've been experimenting with a lot of mascaras lately and this is fantastic, it's by Benefit, it's the Bad Gal Bang. I got a little travel size as a free sample and I just keep it in my little travel bag, you know, the little plastic bag you take when you go in your carry-on. I used it a few times this past month and it is so good. I mean my lashes go from this to this, and I liked it so much I had to get the full size because it's just amazing. Now I have it in black, I don't even know if they have any colors, I must look into that, I prefer a brown or blue or maroon or something, but anyway, I think that the finished effect is so good. I love it, it's great."

"This is the mascara I'm currently using. It's okay, I would not repurchase this. It's by Benefit. Is it just me? Benefit is a little underwhelming. It gives a nice amount of length to the lashes, but it's clumpy and it tends to fall out a bit."

"A little bit of mascara, I'm going to use my Benefit Bad Gal Bang. I love this, I can almost put it on without looking. It's just one of those quick and easy mascaras. It's just quick, it's easy, it doesn't flake during the day, I don't have any transfer, and it's just very reliable."
