Ere Perez Mascara Comparison

If you're in a rush, it's easy to apply quickly in the bathroom mirror at work and keep in your handbag if you need to do a 60 second makeup job with this and a quick lick of natural lipstick.
The Ere Perez Mascara range has 3 different mascara choices in their natural makeup range. Here's a run down on each one to help you choose your perfect wand!
