INTRODUCTION

On a daily basis when you can’t afford to spent time applying falsies, my go-to solution for dramatic eyelashes is a good voluminizing mascara. Given the fact that mascaras have be disposed of within 5-6mnths, I can’t always spent on high end brands and stick to the usual drugstore ones – like, Maybelline. For years I have been using the Maybelline The Falsies Volum’ Express Mascara and was quite happy with the results. The recent launch of Maybelline includes the Lash Sensational Waterproof Mascara which I am going to review in this post.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION – Lash Sensational Waterproof Mascara. This fresh liquid formula captures lashes from root to tip for a full-fan effect.

  • Exclusive fanning brush with ten layers of bristles reveals layers of lashes for a sensational full-fan effect.
  • Ophthalmologist tested.
  • Suitable for contact lens wearers.

PRICE – Rs. 500 for 9ml (Buy HERE)

MY REVIEW

The packaging of the Maybelline Lash Sensational Waterproof Mascara is pretty much similar to the Hypercurl and Falsies one. It comes in a rose gold opaque tube with the fattened centre. The mascara has the screw lock system where the applicator brush is attached to the cap. The applicator wand has its own uniqueness and gives this effect ‘fan’ affect to the lashes. The base is slightly curved and help to curl the lashes faintly while applying the mascara. There is a ten layers of bristles with short lengths which prevent clumping of lashes. Thus, the wand coats and comb the lashes while applying and surely one of the best mascara brushes I have used so far.

Also, it won’t smear and smudge the skin at all and I can easily apply the mascara on the lower lashes as well. Overall, the brush adds a different charm to the mascara.

Coming to the version, the mascara is available in two variants – waterproof and washable. I picked up the waterproof variant as I want my mascara to last all day long. And surely it does. It stays intact even after the whole day of toiling around and wont smudge, smear or irritate the eyes at all. It is ophthalmologically tested and is also suitable for contact lens wearers. I was relieved to see the price tag as they kept it at par with Falsies. If I compare the Falsies Volum’ Express and the Lash Sensational one, I would say the difference is very negligible. Falsies excels in quality of the product while Lash Sensational’s USP is the brush. Otherwise, both are surely at par with each other.

Coming to the effect of the mascara, the Lash Sensational mascara adds ton of volume to my lashes, as you can see the ‘Before’ and ‘After’ swatches. But, the volume in person is much more and fuller looking but somehow my camera failed to capture it. The formula of the mascara is medium but after 3-4 months I realized that the consistency is thickening. This is a problem I face with all my Maybelline mascaras. The volume is definitely stunning and when you apply the mascara from the root of the lashes, in a zig-zag way, towards the end, it simply looks dramatic.

However, if you go on adding layers, the mascara is going to clump. I didn’t face this clumping issues in the first 2 months of using but as it dries up and thickness, it has the tendency to clump.

I like the fact that the waterproof variant stays all day long and no matter how much you rub your eyes, the mascara won’t budge at all. However, removing the mascara from the eyes is one tough task altogether. So far, only olive oil could remove the last trace of mascara from the eyes when you soak it in a cotton pad for a minute or so. With regular usage, the mascara finishes up with 4 months or so.

WHAT I LIKED

1. Rose gold opaque tube.

2. Unique fan brush that separates and coats the lashes well.

3. It doesn’t smudge or smear at all.

4. Ophthalmologist tested and suitable for contact lens wearers.

5. Good formula.

6. Adds dramatic volume.

7. Doesn’t flake off and hold the curl well.

8. Available in both washable and waterproof variants.

9. Affordable.

WHAT I DISLIKED

1. It has the tendency to dry up within 3 months of usage.

2. Tendency to clump once thickens.

3. Waterproof variants is very difficult to remove.

RATING – 4.5/5

OVERALL – The Maybelline Lash Sensational Waterproof Mascara is a wonderful volume boost mascara that has the unique ‘fan bristles’ wand which lengthens, coats and separates the lashes with application. it adds decent drama to the lashes, stays all day long and surely one of the best and affordable voluminizing mascara I have used after Maybelline The Falsies Volum’ Express. I would surely recommend this and would repurchase soon.

Editor’s Note: This one sounds really good. I didn’t like the Magnum Barbie one as the results were not that good plus removing it was almost impossible. Will try this

Sugar Lash Mob Limitless Mascara Review, Pictures

Sugar Lash Mob Limitless Mascara Review, Pictures

Hi guys,

I love Sugar Cosmetics lip products, their lipsticks and lip crayons are really good. Even the kajals and eyeliners are of great quality, considering they manufacture at Schwan Stabilo in Germany where majority of the brands do.

So now they have launched a mascara. This is the basic black shade called ‘Black with a Bang’, I feel they will be launching more shades in mascara real soon and that would be interesting as we don’t have many colored mascaras in India.

Claims: Looking for a magic wand that will transform you from Plain Jane to Queen Bee in seconds? The all-new Lash Mob Limitless Mascara from SUGAR gives you just the drama your eyes need! Whether you’re a fan of super volume or clump-free formula, we bet that your lashes will thank you once you’ve had your first date with this beauty. Creamy-textured and incredibly easy to apply, this paraben-free Mascara does a stellar job of separating, defining and combing through each lash so you’ll experience lashes like never before!

Benefits: This wonder mascara houses specially designed micro-bristles that lift, separate and unstick every lash hair and coat it with our clump-free volumizing formula. That’s not all! This game-changing makeup product also boosts the growth of your natural lashes thanks to the nourishing vitamins in the tube and contains anti-oxidants that protect them from pollutants. How’s that for packing so much punch in one miracle product!

MRP: Rs.699 for 9ml (Buy HERE)

Ingredients: Water (Aqua), Synthetic Beeswax, Paraffin, Iron Oxides CI 77499, Stearic Acid, Acacia Senegal Gum (Acacia Senegal), Triethanolamine, Butylene Glycol, Copernicia Cerifera (Carnauba) Wax (Cera Carnauba), Polybutene, Triacontanyl PVP, Glyceryl Stearate, Phenoxyethanol, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Tocopherol, Sodium Stearate, Polyquaternium-65

It comes in a slender matte black tube packaging. The brush is nice and thick and I thought it would be quite volumizing looking at the brush.

I prefer slightly wet formulas in mascaras because that helps coat lashes well. The formula of this is dry, not stiff dry but not wet either.

It lengthens and curls the lashes but does not give enough volume. If you try to layer with multiple coats for volume, it clumps up the lashes.

I am not sure of the lash growth claim as I am not using it everyday. But if you just need some curl and length on an everyday basis and it also helps in the growth of the lashes when used everyday, this is a good work wear option.

It comes off very easily at the end of the day as it’s not waterproof, but this makes this easily smudgable. It transfers easily on lower lashline and smudges with even slight rubbing.

Before, 1 coat, multiple coats

Here you can see my before-after with one coat and 2-3 coats. I like how it defines and curls with one coat, which is good enough for everyday. But as you can see here, it clumps with more coats and transfers on lower lashline.

It is decent for everyday use, but considering the price, I wouldn’t recommend it as it’s very expensive. I love my Essence mascaras which are fabulous and very affordable.

Ingredients:

My take:
Packaging simply lovely pink tube. Don’t we all love when we have simple products with packaging in bright colours in our vanity? Just lifts my mood. Hehe.

So the packaging is sturdy the brush is the standard mascara brush. It has matt finish and it is thick non dripping mascara.

I have used it for about 3 months. Finished all of it and only then I am ready ti give its review.
Al in all great for everyday use. Little steep on the price (when I checked the price online). Nothing that cannot be lived without.

Just a good everyday pink tube to have.

Pros of the mascara:
• Matt. Good for everyday use.
• Smudge proof.
• Waterproof.
• Single coat does the job.

Cons of the mascara:

• Nothing special really. No length or visible thickness of my lashes.

Will I buy it? NO!
