Is it worth the hype? Benefit They're Real mascara

I know I'm a bit late with this one, but I decided to post it anyway. I wasn't going to buy this mascara at first because it is a bit expensive and I know I can find mascaras just as good on the drugstore, however last week I was walking around with some friends and we decided to look around benefit and I thought I would give it a try.
Also after seeing the reviews both positive and negative about it I thought I would try so I could give you guys my review.
Bad Gal mascara from Benefit is one of my all time favourite mascaras and I didn't think this would be as good, but fortunately I was wrong, this mascara became one of my favourite mascaras ever, but I could see why people don't like it as much. The only two points that I'm not a fan is the tip of the brush, it accumulates a lot of product and could make my eyelashes stick together, another negative point is definitely the price tag, retailing for £18.50.
(one coat. I did not curl my eyelashes before applying mascara.)

So, do I think this is worth the hype? Yes, absolutely.
Have you ever tried this mascara? Do you like it?

    i've never tried the 'they're real' mascara but when the benefit 'bad gal lash' mascara came in one of the kits i bought, i immediately fell in love with it. this product's brush looks a bit different from the bad gal one though, is it a plastic brush? great review!

      It's a rubber brush, I'm usually not a fan of rubber brushes but this one is great!

    I have been searching for the perfect mascara (sometimes I wish I was born with naturally long and dark eyelashes to avoid the hassle lol) and I wanna give this a try! Thanks for the review!

    Great picture and great lashes!! I really want to try this but I'm really happy with my Lancome Hypnose Drama. But I guess every girl will always be on the hunt for the next best thing. :)
