MY 2 CENTS
I received a travel size of Benefit They’re Real! mascara in my September 2012 TopBox
“They’re real! lengthens, curls, volumizes, lifts & separates. Our jet black, long-wearing formula won’t smudge or dry out. A specially designed brush reveals lashes you never knew you had!”- excerpt from Benefit website
They’re Real! is a pretty awesome mascara. It definitely gives my lashes that va-va-voom factor by darkening and lengthening them. It also defines and elongates my lower lashes incredibly!
I’ve experience no clumping or flaking and it doesn’t disappear throughout the day.
I am so happy with this mascara and would definitely pay the $30 to stock this in my kit.
