Estée Lauder Sumptuous Bold Volume Lifting Mascara


This is a sample mascara which i bought from online.

It’s the Estée Lauder Sumptuous Bold Volume Lifting Mascara which is said to be “extremely lightweight, soft-spun lash-thickening fibers, gives lashes soaring lift with audacious volume and curl. Lifts and plumps even sparse lashes into big, lush lashes that are all lightness and flirtatious curl. BrushComber™ thickens like a brush, defines like a comb. Wraps your entire lash in air-light volume for a 360° effect.



True to the description, the mascara is extremely lightweight. The brush with small bristles makes it easy to coat the lashes covering every tiny strays. It is also easy to curl – some mascara makes the eyelash stand straight. It definitely opens up my eyes.



What i love most about this mascara is that it doesn’t clump and it’s long lasting.

As for volume, i think its lacking in that department. Although i really like the mascara i don’t see really spectacular result in volume especially since i have really sparse lashes. I think it’s great for casual or office use but as for dinner or parties when you want a dramatic look i prefer other mascara that could really pump up the volume.

Longer Lash

Longer Lash

 
I never got around to post about the lash extension thingy i tried out ages ago so today i’m going to do a review.

You know i have really short eyelashes. It’s like really short, almost unnoticeable even with mascara type of short? Well, i’m told most Chinese have short lashes so people calls it the “Chinese lashes”… or at least that’s what my ex-colleagues used to tell me.

Yes, it’s very sad because it’s so short that using the eyelash curler is useless since my lash is too short to curl anyways. So, each time after applying mascara i will attempt to curl it which result to nothing. And each time by the end of the day, the mascara would have stained the area around my eyes making me look like a panda or something.

Why? Because my lashes which is coated with thick black mascara and is too short to be curled, points downwards therefore touching the lower region of the eye making it all black. Yes, it’s very sad and i swore off mascara for a while after that.

Do you have the same experience?

Well, i’m happy to say that’s the story of my past. I have longer lashes now. Thank god!

I read about the Face Shop’s Eyelash and Eyebrow Nutrition Liquid from a forum and there were mix reviews. Some says it works and some says it doesn’t. It’s pretty normal because every product have mix reviews coz it doesn’t work on everyone. You think miracle meh??!

I went and bought it. It’s only RM19.90.

The description from the website doesn’t says anything about lash growth, instead it says “Keratin and botanical proteins and extracts penetrates the skin to nourish lashes → Keeps lashes healthy and radiant Apply over lashes before going to bed”. But the staff claims otherwise.

So i very rajin applied it in the morning before the coat of mascara and night before going to bed. It kind of sux because the liquid really stings the eyes.

After 2 weeks i saw results. My lashes were longer! Well… not as long as i would have liked it but it was definitely longer. The lower lashes was the most obvious.

Look, this is the before and after photos.

Before.

The product stopped working after 2 weeks, the growth was stagnant by then and my lashes got a little thinner but that’s ok. I could put on mascara and curl it a little and not stained the skin beneath the eye now.

Ok, i stress i suka-suka post this and it’s not an advertorial because no one would ppay me to write anything. Sad haha.
