Mascaras

I have never really see myself as a mascara fanatic, usually eyeliner and blushers are my favourite. However, when I have started working last year, I notice I can't live without mascaras.

It seriously make my eyes bigger and noticeable lashes... thats what mascaras for right? haha

When I was packing a few week ago, I notices I have quite a number of mascaras. Eek..


l to r: Maybelline XXL (waterproof), Maybelline XXL (non-waterproof), Maybelline Volume Express Hypercurl, Majolica Majorca Lash Beautifying, Lancome Virtouse, Diorshow Iconic, Lancome L'extreme.


Before you think I am a nutso, I have only bought 3 of it, Maybelline XXL (waterproof), Volume Express and Majolica. The rest was given by people or something. I'm not complaning though, keep them coming haha.

Here some down low of my thoughts,

Maybelline XXL - one of the best for affordable mascaras around RM20 ++. It does it job. I love XXL for more daily lashes. Most of the time, I skipped the white fiber.

Maybelline Volume Express - I love it for more volume and slightly more dramatic. does not smudge but can be clumpy if not applied properly.

Majolica Majorca - Extremely black and glossy. If applied properly, lash can be quite dramatic and nice but if not it can be extremely clumpy. Main turnoff - extremely hard to remove. Interesting comb brush instead of the usual brush.


Virtouse - So so for me, not much effect, good for daily use as its non waterproof, easy removal.

Diorshow Iconic - I love this. Have quite a dramatic volume and slight curl effect but if not applied properly can wear down the lashes a little. Easy removal. But I don't think I will pay the price. Nice tube packaging.


L'extreme - leave not much impression, I usually prefer volume over length. So so only.

Conclusion, I love mascaras. The next two mascaras I would love to try is Max Factor 2000 calories and MAC Plushlash.

Maybelline Unstoppable Eyeliner

My first review on this blog. Not sure if anyone is reading this. Say hi ok if you're reading my review.

Disclaimer: I am not pro but I tested out this product. It's just my POV.

I bought Maybelline Unstoppable Eyeliner in Black from Guardian, few days ago.
It says here "Ophthalmologic Tested-Long Wearing"
Ophthalmologic in short called " the science of eyes" (according to Wikipedia.org)






I consulted the sales girl asking if it's smudged proof. She was a very honest and said No... The reason I bought it is because 1) the sales girl is honest 2) It's on discount 3) I need a new crayon eyeliner.

For best result, I tested it on without any eyeshadow or mascara.


I must say, it's easy to put it on. Not much of hard energy needed compared to other crayon eyeliner. Plus, it's smooth while putting it on.

Tips: If you want to have a bigger or brighter eyes, eyeliner can achieve that by drawing half instead of full on your bottom eye.


Right after a few minutes (I swear on my eyes), it smeared. The picture might not be clear because I suck at taking make up pics. But you notice at the end of my eyes, there's a lighter black. Yes, that's the smudge.

I know I shouldn't have purchase it despite a warning from the sales person.

So I would not use this for a long day because it's not suitable for long wearing; even if you'll stay air conditioned all day.
