BADgal Bounce

BADgal Bounce is a volumizing mascara with two working surfaces on one wand. The bristle side packs volume on; flip it over and a fine-tooth comb separates and defines. Benefit's stated aim is fuller lashes without clumps or flaking.

What it actually does

• Two tools, one tube. The custom hybrid brush has fibre bristles on one face for building bulk, and a fine-tooth comb on the other for pulling lashes apart.
• Conditions while it wears. Benefit lists provitamin B5 for conditioned-feeling lashes, linden bud extract to make them look fuller, and rice wax to help separate, define and lift.
• Built to resist clumping and flaking. The brand frames the comb side plus the conditioning formula as the reason the finish stays clean through the day.
• Curls and lengthens too. It isn't a volume-only formula — Benefit classes it as volumizing, curling and lengthening.
• A long list of exclusions. Free of parabens, formaldehydes and formaldehyde-releasing agents, phthalates, mineral oil, retinyl palmitate, oxybenzone, coal tar, hydroquinone, SLS and SLES sulfates, triclocarban and triclosan, with under one percent synthetic fragrance.

How to use

1. Begin with the bristle side and fluff the lashes from root to tip.
2. Turn the wand over to the comb side and draw it through to separate.
3. Keep layering until you reach the density you want — Benefit's own 242% figure was measured at three coats.

Questions

Why does the brush have two sides?

Because the two jobs need different shapes. Fibre bristles load product on and build bulk; a fine-tooth comb can't do that, but it can separate lashes that bristles have just loaded. Benefit put both on one custom-engineered wand so you don't need two mascaras.

How many coats should I use?

As many as you like — it's a build-as-desired formula. For context, the brand's 242% volume measurement was taken after three coats.

Is it vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes to both, per Benefit. It's also gluten-free and comes in recyclable packaging.

Is it waterproof?

Benefit lists it as long-wearing, with 24-hour wear measured in an instrumental test — it doesn't describe it as waterproof. Treat it as a long-wear mascara rather than a swim-proof one.
