Battle of the Too Faced Mascaras: Damn Girl vs. Better Than Sex

When it comes to beauty products, mascara seems to be one of the most subjective of them all. What may be professed as holy grail for one person could be described as mediocre by another. It makes sense — like the hair on our heads, our eyelashes truly are unique. Thick, thin, short, long, curly and straight...the list goes on. So it's no wonder that we have a plethora of picks for enhancing our lashes.

Recently, Too Faced launched its Damn Girl! 24 Hour Extreme Volume Mascara, $25, and I giddily raced to Sephora to snag a myself a tube. Touted as version 2.0 of the iconic Better Than Sex Mascara, $25 (which is constantly a global bestseller), I knew I needed to try it ASAP. I tested both products, separately and one on each eye, to test the similarities and differences — and to ultimately determine which mascara worked best for me. If you're curious about the new Damn Girl Mascara, read on for a side-by-side comparison to its older sibling, Better Than Sex.
