Etude Volume Up Mascara ~ Review

Today my review is going to be on Etude Volume Up Mascara!

What it claims?

Pump up the volume on your lashes with Etude! Etude mascara creates extremely long lashes that will hold up on the dance floor!

(Sorry about the name, it got rubbed off..lol)



My Views

I think this was the first 'Etude' product that i tried...I bought this mascara from a store nearby 'Shazz super market' for about 225rs. The sales person over there showed me a loreal and a maybelline mascara aswell...but i was kind of 'out of my budget' at that time so i went for this one hehe..

You can see its a 'volume up mascara' so its supposed to give volume to your lashes. The color of this baby is Black. I really haven't tried any colored mascaras. Dont know how would i end up looking like..lol


The brush of this mascara is straight, but i know u can see it tilting a bit in the pic..right?
That was done by me hehe...i tilted the brush a bit myself and it really helps me in applying mascara easily...i dont know about you guys but i feel comfortable with a tilted brush

And yea, this mascara is not waterproof...so it easily comes off with water!

Well, i dont really apply mascara for the whole day, but this doesnt disappoint me if im wearing it for 6 to 8 hours...Plus, the climate on karachi gets quite hot and humid im the summers and also in octobers...So, this survived pretty well in that climate aswell!



well, this is a pretty decent one, its been with me for quite a long period and it hasn't dried up...and i really did not find it clumpy, i guess if you clean your mascara brush after every four or five times of use, just with a clean tissue paper...your mascara wont get clumpy, so there you go...i just gave you guys a great tip ;)

And now i'll show you the performance of this mascara...

Before Applying Mascara

After Applying Mascara

You can see the results of it, although i coated my lashes not much with it...i just gave one coat and it really defined my lashes well, gave me a good length and helped my lashes look a bit fuller...My lashes are naturally curled, so i really dont need a lash curler for curling them...This baby lifts my lashes very nicely, if i put on too many coats, the result would surely be clumpy but three coats of this mascara gives a great illusion of almost fake lashes...the clumping problem is i guess with all the mascaras out there

The color is intense enough to show up on pictures, it doesnt give you very dramatic look...that i guess is upto the texture of you lashes...my lashes arent thick, but the good thing is that it doesn't flake or smudge

Well im pretty happy with this purchase, and probably would be buying it again...Hope you guys liked the review, do tell me which brand of mascara you like and also dislike?

Will be waiting for your comments, questions, opinions...till then, takecare :)

New Luscious Whitening Base for Oily/Combination Skin ~ Review

Image
A year or two ago when i got the Luscious Whitening Base, i looked at it and wished it came in a bigger tube..Im Happy that Luscious Cosmetics released it in a bigger better tube :) Lets see how this one performs! Whats they Say? Save Your Skin!  Sun damage has become a big part of our lives due to pollution and the environment. No matter what your age is, you are at risk of sun damage (dark patches and uneven skin tone) every time you step out without a good sun block. Here to the rescue is Luscious Whitening Base SPF 35. All in One:  • Oil-free Moisturiser  • High performance Sun Protection  • Makeup Primer The benefits: The list is endless. With continued use, you will see a visibly clearer and fairer complexion, as well as smoother skin texture. ShyCheeeks Experience Im really happy they actually changed the tube, the previous one was a little hard to squeeze and was for 'All Skin Types' Now this comes for Oily/Combination and for Dry Skin I like the concept...

Wishlist #12

1. CLINIQUE Cheek Pop Blush These blushes grabbed my attention the moment I laid my eyes upon them. They look adorable with the beautiful floral relief and I hear it's not just their looks that is spectacular, the creamy-powder hybrid formula is highly praised as well. Peach Pop appeals to me most and perhaps even Berry Pop , though it looks super bright. I really wanted to see them in person when I went to Müller a week ago, but it appears Slovenia is late to the party yet again. Boots international has them for £16.50 (about 20.6 €) . 2. DIOR ADDICT Fluid Stick and MAYBELLINE Color Elixir Lip Color   I used to own loads of lip gloss, but I have since completely switched to lipsticks resulting in a very pathetic lip gloss collection for a beauty enthusiast. These new releases by Maybelline and Dior, which are just a couple of the new takes on very pigmented versions of lip gloss formula, caught my attention. I swatched a few Dior ones in Müller and I really liked them. I al...

Hair Oils Series: Kérastase Elixir Ultime

Image
And the award for the most over-dramatic advertising goes to -  Kérastase (owned by L'Oreal): “The alchemy of four precious oils to beautify hair. A new legend is born, the secret of magnificent hair is revealed.” *Facepaw* Alchemy? Legend? Secret of magnificent hair? Give me a break. Who comes up with these things? It’s a hair product not a trailer for a fantasy blockbuster. Let’s keep it real, please. But let’s focus on the product. Packaging : A clear plastic bottle with a pump. It's good for travelling, not only because it's plastic, but also because the bottle is light. It has a pump that dispenses the product nicely and in small amounts, so it's easy to pump out the desired amount. Because the bottle is clear, it's better to keep it stored in a dark place to protect it from sunlight. Ingredients : First two ingredients are silicones as with all of these hair oils. They are followed by corn oil, argan oil, camelia oil and pracaxi oil. The rest six ingredients a...
