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.

Have you tried the Sugar Lash Mob Limitless Mascara? What do you feel?

Hi guys,

I have reviewed many Asus phones including the tab before, read all HERE. I have to say this Zenfone 3 is the most exciting one, coz of the camera!

Colors: Moonlight White, Shimmer Gold, Aqua Blue, Sapphire Black

Price: Rs.21999/-

It comes with USB-C type charger, user guide, headphones with additional caps.

The Zendesign and front and rear 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass makes it look elegant and classy (also scratch free) and the design has won a few awards already!

Absolutely love the sleek design and the metal outer frame, plus it is very light weight!

PixelMaster 3.0 packs a 16MP camera with the latest Sony® IMX298 sensor, six-element Largan lens with a large f/2.0 aperture, and subject-tracking TriTech auto-focus for variable distance and lighting clarity in just 0.03 seconds. Optical and electronic image stabilization for blur-free shots and video, color correction sensor for true color photography, and true 4K UHD video recording.

The TriTech ultra fast 0.03s auto focus is the first of its kind and exclusive only to Zenfone 3. For the first time in the smartphone world, the engineers at Asus have combined three focusing technologies — laser, phase detection and continuous auto-focus — into one harmonious system. The optical image stabilizer prevents any blurry/shaky photos coz of hand movements.

The 64MP Super Resolution and Real Time HDR makes the pictures look absolutely true to life and super vivid and sharp! The pictures in Super Resolution mode are better than DSLR’s too! But of course, the files are very heavy in size.

Zenfone 3 not only looks amazing and has a fabulous camera, but also comes packed with power! It has 4-bit, 2.0GHz octa-core Snapdragon™ 625 processor, 4GB memory and desktop-grade Adreno™ 506 graphics performance. This powerhouse processor has revolutionary 14nm Fin Field Effect Transistors (FinFETs) to deliver full-on performance while reducing power consumption by 35%. World’s First 14nm Snapdragon processor with with 64-Bit Octa-Core CPU @2.0Ghz : S625 is much more powerful than previous generation thanks to new full 8 core @ 2.0Ghz. 2016 S625 is around the same level of performance of 2015 S800 series. 14nm is the most advance process technology in 2016. FinFet LPP technology increase the powering saving more than 35%. As conclusion, S625 is not mid end processor , it’s middlle-high end processor with great user experience.

It has 4G/3G dual-SIM bay for complete flexibility for up to 300Mbps (Category 7) downloads via either card, and the latest 802.11ac technology for Wi-Fi connections that scream at up to 433Mbps. ZenFone 3 even offers accelerated charging, with a five-minute top-up adding two hours of talk time to the powerful 3000mAh battery — and reversible USB-C for any-way-up connectivity convenience! The USB-C also ensures that the phone never heats up while getting charged or while playing games/surfing the web.

It has 4G LTE and works on Android Marshmallow. It comes with both 5.2 and 5.5 inch display size, this is the 5.2 inch one in Shimmer Gold, love the halo it creates.

The camera of course comes with all the classic Asus features like HDR, Super HDR, Panorama, Selfie Panorama, Sepia, Beautification, Time Lapse, Slow Motion, etc. It also has an in built editor with various filters/frames and some basic editing options.

The 16MP rear camera is super sharp and clear, I have clicked some pictures and they are all raw/unedited, I have only resized them as each picture was around 3MB!

Also used the front 8MP camera for some selfies. Front camera also has Beautification, HDR Pro mode, etc. I have clicked in normal Auto mode, Beautification mode and in HDR Pro.

HDR Pro

I am loving the pictures!

Game Genie, Sonic Master, Finger print sensor are some of the other fabulous features to look at!

All these features and specs definitely deserve a price much higher, but 21999 is a steal for Asus Zenfone 3! I believe it has everything one needs in a smartphone from camera to battery life to performance! Total value for money! You can check more or buy them on Flipkart www.flipkart.com/zenfone-3

OPPO F1s Selfie Expert First Impressions, Specs, Pictures

Hi guys,

If you follow my blog, you know I have reviewed the OPPO F1 which was launched in Feb HERE. And then later in April, I went to Delhi for the OPPO F1 Plus Selfie Expert phone launch and also reviewed the F1 Plus HERE, comparing it with Samsung Galaxy A7.

Now OPPO has launched the F1s which is already available for pre-booking. I am trying out the device since about a week now and here are my thoughts on it.

Key Features:

  • 16MP Front camera and 1/3.1 inch Image Sensor
  • Beautify 4.0
  • In built Filters
  • 13MP Rear Camera and 1/3.06 inch sensor
  • 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass 4 Screen
  • 0.22s Fingerprint Unlock
  • Customizable Finger print activated app launch
  • 3GB RAM
  • Dual 4G sim 
  • 32GB internal memory, expandable upto 128GB
  • New ColorOS 3.0 based on Android 5.1

Price: INR 17990

Colors Available: Gray & Gold

It’s a 5.5 inch screen normal sized smartphone, it’s not as thin and light as the F1 Plus, but not very heavy too, 160g to be precise. It has 3075mAh battery which is pretty good and lasts through whole day in one full charge!

It comes with earphones, charger, USB cord and a transparent plastic back case.

Of course, the phone does have all the excellent camera features which all OPPO phones come with. From Selfie Panoroma to HDR and Expert Mode.

I have clicked this with the Expert Mode, Ultra HD Mode, HD Mode and the Normal mode. The Expert Mode lets you adjust the white balance, ISO and every other setting. If you are a professional photographer, you can change those every single time before clicking. Ultra HD gives brighter and clearer pictures. HD mode is true to color and will give you super sharp pictures. They are heavy in size and resolution. HD mode is my favourite, and the Normal mode clicks pretty good pictures too. They have an inbuilt editor which lets you quickly edit pictures.

Left-Right: Expert, Ultra HD, HD, Normal

Also my favourite Beautify 4.0 mode, it makes your selfies look flawless! And also natural at the same time. I have taken this picture with the normal mode and the Beautify mode. Mind you, I only have concealer and some powder used here on my skin, and the Beautify mode gives me flawless skin as if I have full makeup on. I love the fact that it brightens and sharpens my eyes.

Front Camera
Left- Normal
Right- Beautify

Both front and rear camera clicks excellent pictures even in low light and night time, compared to all other expensive phones in the segment. I had compared the F1 Plus with Samsung Galaxy A7 in my previous blog post. As you can see in the pictures above, it concentrates light on the subject and dims the background, so the subject is well lit!

0.22s Fingerprint Sensor

Sensors on the phone include Proximity sensor, Ambient light sensor, Accelerometer. The finger print sensor is unbelievably fast! Colours are very bright and sharp and pictures come true to colour.

It has almost all the features of the F1 Plus, and at an attractive price of 17990! If you are looking for a phone that looks stylish, has excellent camera and battery, plus is not very expensive, you do not have to look any further!! OPPO F1s is your answer! Pre book at your nearesr OPPO store.
