Primark's 'amazing' £3.50 mascara is 'just as good' as £12 Maybelline with 1500 five-star reviews from Boots customers

Beauty buffs are praising Primark for its £3.50 dupe of a cult mascara - which has thousands of five-star reviews online. Primark has launched its own £3.50 version of Maybelline's Sky High mascara, which has soared in popularity since it was first released, and is a staple in millions of people's make-up bags.

In my experience of using Maybelline's Sky High Mascara, which is £11.99 on the Boots website, it's excellent. I found it lengthened my lashes in one coat when I tried it, and gave them a lovely black coating - not like the sub-par smudgy black you often find with budget mascaras.

On the Boots website, Maybelline's Sky High mascara has 1,500 five-star reviews. One Boots reviewer said after trying the £11.99 Maybelline mascara: "I bought this yesterday after reading the reviews and found it amazing! Easy to apply ( some people thought the wand too flimsy I didn’t) As another mentioned If you build it up your lashes really are sky high It doesn’t flake or smudge A great find Thanks Maybelline."
