Maybelline Hypercurl Volum' Express Waterproof Mascara

Maybelline Hypercurl Mascara, 4g

Bought for: P199

Bought from: Watsons, SM Manila

I have tried a few mascaras before I got my hands onto Maybelline Hypercurl Volum Express and now, I can say that it's my favorite mascara! Well, not that I have tried a lot--just the Nichido mascaras, San San, Covergirl--you know, the affordable ones. And by affordable, I meant the drugstore ones which retail at least P300 below. I'm up for some high-end discoveries but currently, they don't fit the bill.

I love the packaging--very sleek and classy with the pink and black theme. To be honest, I am a huge fan of pink and black stuff. They look very feminine without giving all out. By saying so, you won't think of it as a makeup which you can get at a dirt-cheap price of P199!

As you can see, the wand has a slight curvature that makes application so easy because it perfectly fits the arch shape of our eyes. The bristles have short ones intended for the thinnest and shortest lashes so you get an even application. without the clump. Yay! Finally I have found a mascara than applies so thinly but gives off an even and well-coated finish! Just one coat for both eyes and you're good to go! But of course if you want eyes with lashes that looks more wide-awake, longer and thicker, then you are free to add another coat. You probably don't need some false eyelashes with this!

Maybelline Hypercurl Volum' Express Waterproof Mascara has been out in the market for a long, long time already and I regret buying it just recently. Had I figure out how great it is back then, I never should have spend small bucks for other not-so-much-of-good-quality stuff.

Sorry for my untamed brows!

The picture shows my lashes without (first) and with (second) mascara. It's not that much obvious there because I only want one coat of the product so it would look a bit natural and not so overdone. I love how it maintains my curls for at least 4 hours without weighing it down (unlike other mascaras) and without smudging. As a matter of fact, it's the hardest to remove makeup I had in my entire life! Could be a bad thing when I'm running out of makeup remover! Hahah!

*****

What I like:

-Do not weigh curls down

-Gives a thicker and longer looking lashes (volumizing effect)

-Non-irritating

-Affordable

-Dries easily

-Smudge-proof, tear-proof, waterproof

-Easy to apply

-Does not create clumps when applied properly

What I don't like:

-Formula in the container dries quickly even when sealed.

If you really want an affordable mascara that effectively lengthen and thicken your lashes and could be use in a daily basis, then you might want to give it a shot! I highly recommend it to everyone!
