Ok, so with all the hype around Loreal Lash Paradise being a dupe for Too Faced Better than Sex Mascara, I had to put it to the test. I have been wearing these two mascara’s for the last two months and really paying attention to the results.
The Loreal Lash Paradise for $9.99 can be found at Ulta, and Too Faced BTS can be found for $23 also at Ulta.
Both mascaras have very similar packaging, as well as a very similar wand in both shape and size. I think both mascaras do a great job with lengthening as well as adding volume to the lashes. I have worn both of these for 16 hour shifts at work, and I have to say, after two months of paying very close attention, the Loreal holds up better under my working conditions without any smudging, flaking, or running.
I absolutely love both mascaras. As you can see in the picture, I have a back up of both. However, if I have to make only one recommendation, I would say……. Save a few bucks and buy the Loreal Lash Paradise. It performs just as great (and holds up better than) the BTS mascara for half the price. I will continue to use the Loreal Mascara for everyday use, and will use the BTS when I will not be working such long hours and sweating lol!
I need to try this mascara out! Does it dry out as quickly as the Better Than Sex? Curious, because mine does so quickly which is the biggest turn off to me.

I don’t know if I could answer that honestly yet, I have been using both for the last two months and neither has dried up on me yet.

GIRL I agree 10000%. BTS always ends up flaking off, which sucks because at first it’s so beautiful.

Honestly, BTS (the mascara not the band!) is so overrated. Only wish Lash Paradise had a waterproof formula. I took L’oreal Superstar waterproof to Cuba with me but really wanted to try LP

It took me along time to get on board with lash paradise and even now I only feel like itโs ok. I would still choose BTS or even most essence mascaras over it.

Agree that the BTS does flake during the day ๐ฆ However – the L’Oreal one, i don’t like that it comes ALOT of mascara on the wand, minor issue haha i know but still
