Cons: initially, the consistency is very watery, you need time to get use to it

Hey people!

 

On YouTube, even the laziest blogger has already sung praises to this product. They tell us that Maybelline has done a breakthrough in the quality of their products. You know, I agree with them. I’ve tried some gorgeous creamy eyeshadows recently and was really impressed by their quality. As for this mascara, I didn’t plan to buy it, but since it was discounted, I just couldn’t help.

Price: $5.99, without discounts it’s $8.99 on the official site.

Size: 9.5 ml

Time of use: 1 month

 

The tube is fatty, in Maybelline’s style. I think if outside you ask a girl to close her eyes and try to determine the brand of the product by its shape, she’ll definitely do that. The brush is convenient to use, I’ve never ever hurt my eye with it. The color of the tube is baby-pink.

On the tube, it’s written what kind of brush that's inside. For me, it’s an advantage, as there are a lot of girls who won’t like this brush shape. To be honest, I used to use only the usual straight mascara brushes all my life. But this one, turned everything upside down.

 

And here comes the first disadvantage.

The stopper. For me, it’s too wide. There’s a lot of mascara that stays on the brush which makes it impossible to use without wiping off the excesses. So that way, the tube becomes dirty very quickly.

The brush consists of silicone bristles which differ in their length. I coat mine with the shorter ones. I find them the most convenient.

The second disadvantage. It may take a week for the product to start giving the beautiful coating. As at first it was sticking my lashes together. I was almost upset about it, but still gave it a go. I had a lot of mascaras that needed time to become of a good consistency.

 

Ingredients:

Let’s turn down the theoretical part and move to the practice.

My bare eyelashes aren't very long, they are rare and usually break at the tips on the outer corner.

What I expect from mascara: I like the dramatic effect on my eyelashes, so I need length, volume and of course a curl.

I applied one coat and was impressed by the result. Even from the first coat I received what I wanted. This mascara is easy to layer, without clumping.

The photo straight after application:

In 5 hours of wearing. My lashes still look as though with just-applied mascara.

I have a little baby, which automatically means that I get tired a lot during the day and I sometimes fall asleep with my make-up on. I’m aware that it’s very bad, but I just forget to take it off. And this is how my mascara looks 24 hours after a sleep and tears during a drama film.

My lashes look rather decent. Although, there’s nothing stated about it being a waterproof product.

My lashes coated with this mascara look really dramatic, I don’t even need to use falsies!

In this photo below, I applied 2 coats of the mascara.

 

A month later, my mascara got a bit drier and started to coat and separate my lashes even better.

Advantages of using a month later:

  • doesn’t flake
  • doesn’t irritate my eyes
  • separates, lengthens and gives beautiful curl
  • doesn’t smudge if I cry
  • no clumps

Disadvantages:

  • Needs time to be of the right consistency
  • too wide stopper

How to wash it off?

Even though this mascara is very long-lasting, it can be easily removed with a usual micellar water. I don’t wash it off with usual water, as I just don’t like this way of taking my make-up off.

This mascara has become my fave.

I recommend buying it. It’s the ideal mascara for me. Of course, there are disadvantages, but still, I got used to them.
