Mascara Review for Vietmy

       This is a mascara review for Vietmy, VT, username Bunnyshop2 and username Stylie465, and to all :)

   Mascaras are really hard to choose from. From all of the different formulas, wands, and brands out there in the market, how do we know which one is just that "right" one for us??  There is always that new product that claims to solve your every need. Whether it is asking for dramatic lashes, longer lashes, curled lashes, or voluminous lashes, none of us will just settle down to that "one" perfect mascara.

My Personal all time favourites would be Diorshow Iconic, Lancome Definicil, Lancome Oscillation Intensity, YSL Singulier and Maybelline Full & Soft.

This review is solely based on my personal opinion and experience.

                                        These are all of the mascaras that I have at the moment.

Lets start from Volumizing/dramatic result mascaras.
Almay-Intense I-color

                                        This is the first mascara that I've purchased in brown.
                                       Likes: Huge wand with lots of bristles.
                                                 Clump free!
                                       Dislike: Because of the shape of the wand, its hard to reach bottom lashes.
                                                   The formula doesn't give you that intense coloring.
                            Recommended: For people with that likes to put on many coats of mascaras. 6/10 rating
                                                     Maybelline- Pulse Perfection (waterproof)
                   Ignore the slight bend of the wand* This mascara clumps and smudges
                               Likes: It really gives you that dark inky color.
                                         The wand is one of those vibrating kind with a button to press.
                               Dislikes: It clumps and smudges. Waterproof version is super hard to take off!
      Recommended: For those that are looking for a mascara that will last through thunderstorms. Rating 5/10.
                                  Covergirl- (Orange tube) Lastblast- (Purple tube)-Lastblast Fusion
                     Lashblast is definitely one of those mascaras that are on many's favourites list.
                       Likes (Orange Tube): The wide wand with tiny bristles.
                                                 Reaching inner corners of the eye and coating the bottom lashes.
                      Dislike: It dries out fast, and I didn't get the volumizing affect.
                      Recommended: For people with long lashes. Rating 6/10.
                      Likes: (Purple Tube): Seperating the lashes.
                      Dislikes: Waterproof version is easy to take off. Does not really lengthen.
                      Recommended: For swimmers, and those that wants a natural look. Rating 7/10.
                             
                                                  Maybelline- The Colossal Volum Express
                                        This is absolutely the best drugstore volumizing mascara!
               Likes: The bulky wand with tons of brustles giving you a clean separating finish.
                                  The intense coloring after several coats.
                                  Easy to take off on the non waterproof version.
               Dislikes: The intense rosy smell.
                                     Smudges (just a tiny bit).
              Recommended:This is a great mascara for those that wants to get that dark smoky look. Rating 9/10
                                                          Another look at the wand/brustles.
                                                Conclusion to all of the Volumizing mascaras.

Lengthening/Definition Mascaras.
                                                         
                                                             Revlon- Grow Luscious
                            This is another one of those mascaras with a large wand
                            Likes: The large wand, and the tiny bristles- even coating.
                                      Great at separating, and lengthening...just a bit.
                                      Similar brush to that of Diorshow.
                            Dislike: Doesn't hold curls very well
                                        Needs several coats to really get the result.
                            Recommended: For those with long lashes. Rating 8/10.
                                   This is the best lengthening drugstore mascara that I've treid.
                      Likes: Its two sides. 1. The primer.2. Black mascara.
                               The primer really seperates the lashes, and at the same time, lengthening them.
                               Immediate effect. Very light.
                               No clumps, no flakes, and no smudges.
                     Dislike: It doesn't dry fast enough.
                 Recommended: For anyone that wants to have those long clean lashes. 10/10
                     Step one: Apply the primer and let it dry for 10 seconds before you go onto second step.
                       Step two: Apply the mascara, and by now, your lashes should be noticeably longer.
                       These two are my favorite!!  Dior- Maximizer and Iconic.
               This is Diors very first mascara primer. It separates lashes, curls them, and lengthens them.
                              Likes: It curls the lashes and extends them really well.
                                        Spiral shape wand
                                        Great clean finish.
                                        Can be used at night as a lash growth product.
                                        The quality package.
                              Dislike: The price. $28
          Recommended: For everyone. Great nourishment for lashes, and great as a primer alone. Rating 10/10.
            After using the primer, the next step would be applying the mascara. Here I have the Diorshow Iconic. It lengthens and defines each and every one of my lashes. Plus, it also has that curling effect.
                            Likes: The rubbery texture bristles.
                                      The twisting shape of the wand.
                                      The great formula.
                                      It does not come off easily.
                            Dislikes: The price $30.
  Small tip: If you have clumps or tiny flakes on the eyelashes, use a clean mascara wand to get it off. This also gives you a more natural look.
The Ball shape wand is from Givenchy Phenomen'Eyes Effet.
