FAQs
How long does the Benefit BADgal BANG! Volumising Mascara last once opened?
For optimal performance and hygiene, it's recommended to replace your mascara every three to six months after opening.
Is this mascara suitable for sensitive eyes or contact lens wearers?
While the product is generally formulated to be gentle, individual sensitivities vary. We recommend consulting with your ophthalmologist if you have highly sensitive eyes or are a contact lens wearer. Always perform a patch test first if you have concerns.
How do I remove the smudge and water-resistant mascara?
To effectively remove the mascara without tugging on your lashes, use an oil-based eye makeup remover or a bi-phase remover. Apply the remover to a cotton pad, press gently onto your closed eyelid for a few seconds to dissolve the mascara, then wipe away downwards.
What are 'aero-particles' and how do they benefit my lashes?
Aero-particles are extremely lightweight, almost weightless particles derived from space technology. In mascara, they allow the formula to build significant volume and length without adding heavy weight, ensuring your lashes feel light and flexible, not stiff.
Can I use this mascara with false eyelashes or lash extensions?
While BADgal BANG! is excellent for natural lashes, applying mascara to false eyelashes is generally not recommended as it can damage them. For lash extensions, it's best to consult with your lash technician, as some formulas may affect the adhesive or lifespan of extensions. Info needed: Specific compatibility with Benefit's formula and lash extensions.
What is the difference between the full-size and mini mascara in the duo set?
The only difference is the size and weight of the product. The full-size contains 8.5g of mascara, while the mini contains 4g. Both contain the exact same BADgal BANG! Volumising Mascara formula and brush design in 'Pitch Black'.
Troubleshooting
Mascara appears clumpy after application
Wipe any excess product off the wand before applying. Use a gentle zig-zag motion from root to tip, and allow each coat to dry slightly before applying another. Avoid applying too many layers.
Mascara is flaking or smudging during the day
Ensure the mascara is fully dry before touching your lashes or applying other products. Check the age of your mascara; old or dried-out mascara can flake more easily. The formula is water and smudge-resistant, so if issues persist, ensure the cap is sealed tightly after each use.
Lashes don't look as voluminous as expected
Focus on wiggling the brush at the very base of your lashes to build volume there. Apply multiple thin coats, allowing each to set slightly. Ensure you're coating every lash with the 360-degree reach of the Slimpact! brush.
Mascara feels dry or is difficult to apply
This often indicates the mascara is nearing the end of its life or has dried out prematurely. Ensure the cap is always tightly sealed. If the product is new, contact customer support. For older products, it's time to replace it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
First Use and Application
This mascara requires no special setup. Simply uncap and apply. For best results, follow the application steps outlined in the 'Performance & Real-World Use' section.
Compatibility
The BADgal BANG! Volumising Mascara is universally compatible with all lash types, whether short, long, sparse, or full. It is designed to enhance and volumize every lash. While generally well-tolerated, individuals with extremely sensitive eyes should perform a patch test or consult with an ophthalmologist.
Product Care
- Storage: Store the mascara upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to preserve its formula.
- Preventing Dry-Out: Always ensure the cap is securely twisted shut after each use. Pumping the wand in and out of the tube introduces air, which can dry out the mascara faster.
- Hygiene: To prevent eye infections, avoid sharing your mascara. Replace your mascara every three to six months, or sooner if you notice a change in texture, smell, or if you've had an eye infection.
- Cleaning the Brush: If excess product builds up on the brush, gently wipe it with a clean tissue before reinserting it into the tube. Avoid washing the brush with water, as this can affect the mascara formula.
