Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara is a prestige volumizing and lengthening mascara with a uniquely shaped brush packed with bamboo fibers and goji berry extract for nourishment. The flexible, tapered wand delivers dramatic volume and definition while the buildable formula gradually thickens lashes without clumping. Washable, cruelty-free, and vegan-friendly. Wear time reaches 12+ hours with solid smudge resistance on normal lids, though it may show minor wear on very oily skin. Best for lash-builders who value dramatic volume over extreme length and appreciate the prestige brand heritage and botanical ingredients.
