Be careful, I don’t know anything about makeup, so reading this can be painful. My girlfriend sent me a screenshot of a certain mascara called Maybelline Sky High or something. There are different selections which include, 801, 802, 803, I can’t find the 801 (which is the one she sent me) but I have found the 803. What is the difference between these? And if there is a difference, is it big enough that I should probably make sure I get the 801 instead?
