I've tried several Rimmel mascaras in the past. I only really liked and have repurchased is their eye magnifier. I have a few other short and sweet Rimmel mascara reviews here if you're interested.
Extra wow lash is marketed as a layerable type of mascara, basically you control if you want more or less of a dramatic look by building layers.The brush is mid sized and has a somewhat fluffy wand, the bristles are large and dense.
I found it quite easy to use and it didn't get all messy like some mascaras do.
extra wow lash wand:
I played around with this mascara and it is totally buildable. It looks good with one or two coats, but really starts to look intense with 3-4 coats - and no clumping either.That is a major plus in my books because I love layering mascara.
with 2 coats:
with 4 coats:
You can see it adds some length and volume, slightly separates too.I found it didn't hold curl as much as I'd have liked, but it didn't weigh my lashes down either.
It has a basic formula that is sort of wet to enable lots of layering.
Wear wasn't bad but it did start to flake on me after 6 hours - this is mainly when I put on lots of layers.
Overall, if you are on a budget this mascara is a pretty decent one to get from the drug store. It's so cheap I say try it out! I found mine on sale, I think it cost $3.97 or something crazy.
Repurchase? maybe - if I am in need of a cheap mascara fix!
Price: $4.99 CAD

This mascara looks really nice on you! I like being able to layer mascara, too. I may have to check this out if I ever get fed up with my current go-to mascara!
