Maybelline Volum’ Express Hypercurl

Hehehe… My first time blogging with my XPS 😛

My first time buying new mascara in less than 4 months, I usually only buy new one when the old one finishes or can no longer be used that would be around 1 year. What to do? Elianto’s failed me… It cannot be used anymore, clotted and drying up.

I saw this new one from Maybelline, Maybelline Volum’ Express Hypercurl, is it new? Hahaha… Consider new I guess… Bought it for RM27+ at Watson. It’s hypoallergenic and contact lens-safe.

Here’s the effect, I only used two coats without eyelash curler, just quick application without paying much attention to the details.

Left: No mascara.
Middle: First coat.
Right: Second coat which I didn’t intend to apply but due to my itchy hand, I decided to apply it again but the first coat had dried long ago *LOL* You should not let it dries in between coats 😛

See the effect? It claims that it can give 75 degree curled lashes with their patented Curl-Lock formula, 3X the volume, without clumps.

Here’s how to get it works:
Roll on this mascara in a zig-zag motion, from the roots to the tips. Apply a few coats till the desired effect is achieved.

I didn’t do that 😛 I just applied like usual, I’m quite satisfied with the effect. No smudge too. After removing the mascara, the curling effect is still there for 2 days. I’m sure if I had followed the instructions, the effect will be so much more obvious.

The brush is quite different from what I normally get from other mascaras that I had tried before. It’s curved, I found out from a TV show about beauty where they said that you must use the brush the “n” way instead if the “u” way. “n” way will curl your lashes, “u” way will not have much effect.

Basically that’s about it. This is my third mascara from Maybelline. My budget for mascara is below RM30, I never go for anything more than this hehehe… I know there are better ones out there that are more expensive but I still can’t seem to get myself to spend this much on mascara 😛
