Even though I hoard mascaras, I almost always end up going back to my tried and true formulas. If I’m going to add a new mascara to my daily rotation it needs to take my lashes over the top — literally. If they can’t reach my eyebrows after a few coats then it’s a no from me 99% of the time. Needless to say, I’m always on the hunt for formulas that will take lashes to the next level, so I was instantly intrigued by the new YSL Beauty Lash Clash Extreme Volume Mascara for its claim to increase lash volume by over 200%. Like the name states, that’s extreme volume — but does this luxe mascara deliver on that promise? After being gifted a tube courtesy of the brand, I put it to the test and my results were shocking. What You Should Know About the YSL Beauty Lash Clash MascaraI want to preface this by saying if you prefer the look of dainty, natural-looking lashes this mascara isn’t for you. But if your motto is “the more lift, volume and length the better,” then you need to run (not walk) to your nearest Sephora and purchase this immediately.  Let’s talk about the packaging first. In true YSL fashion, the black tube is sleek and hefty, making it not only look but also feel luxurious. Plus, the wraparound gold YSL emblem adds to the mascara’s overall opulence. The presentation alone scores high, but the magic of this mascara is what’s inside.
