Maybelline Hauls: 2) Maybelline's Unstoppable Natural Brow Liner and Volum' Express Cat Eyes Mascara

Initially, I don't have any intention to buy any brow pencil as I never use them. Hahaha... One day, I went for free make up class with a friend of mine and learn how to shape and apply eyebrow liner. My eyebrows are natural thick thus I don't see the needs of making it more obvious. When I've look back into those photos we took after the makeup lesson, to my surprised it looks better when my eyebrows have filled.

The reason I buy this brown brow liner is because it is the cheapest and attached a brow brush to it's cap too! Hahaha... I wanted to get a brow pencil from Empro Triangular Eyebrow Pencil but it's out of stock and expensive at RM38.88 / USD11.00. Maybelline's Unstoppable Natural Brow Liner is only RM18.90 and having another 10% discount.

I like the nice soft nip, the color payoff is just nice and look natural. The only setback, is not long lasting enough.

Please allow me to do a small review on a mascara that I'd bought few months ago. Maybelline's Volum' Express Cat Eyes Mascara.

This is totally a crap! I got nothing to say about this mascara other than,

1. It smells weird... like some sort of ink or chemical. Definitely not from long due mascara as I bought this mascara during it's launching. It's fresh ! Hahaha...
2. It clumps like no other. Need I to say more ?
3. It smudges too. No idea how and why...
4. Only one coat, it's all you need to get spider eyes instead of CAT EYES ! Where's the cat !? I hate being a spider.
5. It's Volum's Express and Hypercurl formula. I never see any volume or curl effects on this mascara at all. Crappy.

Whatever you don't need in a mascara, Maybelline's Volum' Express Cat Eyes has it. I really hate this smelly mascara. I bought this mascara at RM33.90 / USD10.00, not worth it at all.

Maybelline Hauls: 1) Maybelline's ANGELFIT Liquid Foundation

I've been eyeing on this liquid foundation for the longest time. First was the short advertisement from Taiwan, which Maybelline found Sato Mai (the winner from Super Sunday Girl many years ago) to test their AngelFit Liquid Foundation. After the application of AngelFit Liquid Foundation on her hand, the host put Sato Mai's hand into a big bowl of chemical poly foams but none of the foams stick on her hand! This action shows how light, smooth, non greasy and non stickiness formula in this foundation. I was sold after I'd watched the advertisement.

According to Maybelline's website, the pink pearls technology allows AngelFit Liquid Foundation to self adjusted the color in order to match with your skin and lighting. With Chamomile and Vitamin E, skin remains hydrate and supply yet smooth, light as feather and free from stickiness. Another important part is, Maybelline claims that no matter how many layers you have applied on your skin, it will remains light and smooth.

The truth is, AngelFit indeed is light, fast to dry and non sticky at all. Unlike other liquid foundations that I'd tried, even the infamous Lunasol Water Cream foundation does leave me sticky feeling and takes time to dries up. AngelFit Liquid Foundation comes with a little pink bottle with pump at 25ml. The texture is watery, this makes application easier as it glides easily without being cakey especially good for a rookie in liquid foundation like me. Although it dries fast but still leave me enough time to spread out the foundation evenly. The foundation is build able and still feeling smooth and light after a few layers on skin. All I can say is a little bit goes a very very long way for AngelFit Liquid Foundation.

Everything seems just nice until I've realised none of the available colors matching with my skin tone! Every AngelFit Liquid Foundation seems to be more on pinkish tone. I did swatches before buying the foundation. At the end, I'd settle with Natural Ivory as I thought it was only a slight pinkish, it won't hurt, after all it still match my skin when other colors are too dark. Who knows, when I put it on yesterday and found it's extremely pink and too grayish pale for my skin. I was totally look like a Geisha, even my boyfriend has notices my vampired pale looking but became a cooked lobster after sitting under the sun for a while. I didn't even wore any blushers yesterday. I thought it might because the foundation hasn't set in but for many hours, it still too pinkish pale for my skin. What a disappointment.

Not satisfied with the result, I was determined to try it again this morning. This time I only put on a tiny little bit because one pump of the foundation is way too much for my face. A tiny bean size is all I need this time. Carefully, not to overly done but the foundation is still too pink although this time the color payoff is no longer that pale. I guess my skintone is way too yellow thus everyone can notices a huge differences between my face and neck. Not the foundation's fault, is mine... I shouldn't buy something so pinkish. Basically, if this foundation can match my skintone perfectly, I would love it very much. Too bad, it doesn't. The retail price is RM39.90 / USD11.30 with additional 20% discount from local drugstore sale.

Angelfit Liquid Foundation is only available in Asia. That means this product is Asia Exclusive but don't we as Asian mostly have yellow undertone skin? Why would Maybelline comes out with something so pinkish for Asian? Or maybe I'm the odd one out. Hahaha...

Maybelline Volum' Express Turbo Boost Waterproof Mascara

Don't know where and when, I've read someone raving about this Maybelline Volum' Express Turbo Boost Waterproof Mascara. My hands are itchy for mascaras again, thus this mascara followed me back home yesterday night.

Wondering is it my expectations on this mascara was too high or it really that disappointed. I really find this as another monkey's best friend. I have quite good acquaintances with Maybelline mascaras such as Unstoppable Curly Extension Mascara and Unstoppable Shiny Black Mascara.

I'm all good with Majolica Majorca's mascaras but with my itchy hands I always like to explore more and hope to find my holy grail mascara. I have the new Lash Beautifying Mascara Frame Plus, Lash Enamel Glamour Neo, Lash Gorgeous Wing & Lash Expander Neo.

Maybelline Volum' Express Turbo Boost Mascara claims to be increase 5 times volume and can be build instantly. How amazing statement it is! I've took their words too seriously and got fallen from the heaven badly too. It does not do any 5 times volume magic on my lashes and I need at least 3 coats to see any mascara on lashes. My normal procedure for Majolica Majorca mascaras is only 1 coat and ' Ta Da!'. Yes, only 1 coat of Majolica Majorca mascara will do the magic for me. Full volume and long lashes with just 1 coat of mascara. WIth this Maybelline Volum' Express Turbo Boost, I need 3 coats at least. This really irritates my patience. One good thing about this mascara is it's really don't clump even after 3 coats. I think this is the only thing that makes me feel my money didn't gone into drain, at least not that much. Other than that, I don't think there's much to say.

Reviews: Unstoppable Curly Extension Mascara

Did I tell you that I'm going to get this babe ?

Yes, I've got it after a lot of hardship. From the product description, this lengthening and curling mascara creates up to 150% longer lashes and sets lashes to a daring 95-degree curve. Patented formula gives lashes 12 hours of hold! Can you believe that ? If you've noticed the brush is slightly slated with an 8-degree, which is great for reaching out every single lashes, lashes separation, enchances lengthening and curl hold effects. For me, I feel the slanted applicator really make things easier.

I was sold by the advertisement saying 'I have sin, I did not permed my eyelashes but it stays extremely curl! Don't you ? Hahahaha... Indeed, this is incredible! In case you don't remember, let me reminds you again. My eyelashes is straight, no matter how many times I've curl them or how long I put the lash curler on them. It just don't curl at all ! I don't perm them because I'm so afraid the idea of someone else putting something unknown near to my eyes.

Ok, back to the topic. Maybelline Unstoppable Curly Extension Mascara really works. It gives me natural curls. Whether is 95-degree curls or does it holds up to 12 hours that will be unknown because yesterday, I was only wearing it for 10 hours and I didn't take any measurement from lashes. I think it is an over claimed that this mascara can creates up to 150% longer lashes but still it does lengthened in certain percentage. Another thing that I think should be bring forward is the staying ability. It's long lasting (please be reminded, when I mentioned 'long lasting' means the mascara color not the curl hold) without any smudges or clumps and the best thing is, it can be removes by using warm water. No eye and lip makeup remover required here, provided if you are using it alone without any other waterproof eye shadows or liners.

I love this mascara so much and it's having sale at Watsons for only RM21.90 / USD6.00 when original price is RM30.90 / USD8.30. Some Watsons already running out of stocks, I've searched 2 different Watsons. The second Watsons visited only left 2 tubes when the first Watsons left none.

After testing it, I'm simply couldn't resisted it, hence I rushed to the third Watsons and bought another tube just for stock up purpose. They are also left 2 tubes there. Hahaha...

Notes: Many years ago there was a mascara by Loreal called Panaromic or something like that also did a fantastic curl for me but unfortunately it does not hold the curl for long and look sparse Anyway, I think the product already discontinued as I didn't see it around for quite some times.

Should I buy or not to buy?

I'm so not inspiring today... I didn't even wearing any makeups when I came out just now. Have no idea what to write and what to post... Maybe you can tell me what do you wish to see in my blog ? I'll be hitting the mall later at night, most probably do some damages again. Hahahaha... I guess I'll be just follow Fuzkittie's step for breaking on the No-Buy rule. LoLz... Anyway, I've been searching high and low for the Dejavu Fiberwig mascara that MiuMiu was recommended.

Arghhh, I've found them in my local Guardian drugstore but the manufacturing date was 04 July 2007? I've checked 2 Guardian drugstores and they are all bearing the exactly same batch of goods. Someone please tell me whether this mascara is still usable after 2 years came out from the factory. The price is RM58.70 / USD16.00. Should I get the Dejavu Fiberwig mascara ? Or should I head to Sasa and get Kiss Me Heroin Make Long And Curl Mascara with the heap price of RM67.00 / USD18.00 for a drugstore brand mascara when Dior Iconic mascara is only RM91.00 / USD24.00...?

Some updates here, I've read some reviews on Dejavu Fiberwig mascara. Some did mentioned they tends to get eye infections after use. This worries me a lot as I have sensitive eyes too. Well, for the Kiss Me Heroin Make Long And Curl Mascara did not do any better either. I've read more bad reviews than good ones. I'm starting to loses my interest in these 2 mascaras. So probably I'll get this babe later on, to think the New Unstoppable Shiny Black Mascara full length version, which I purchased few weeks ago does make me feel good...



Unstoppable Curly Extension Mascara!

I have never be a fan of Maybelline, mainly because their eyeshadows and foundations are real disappointment. Not being pigmented, I can't even say is sheer because it's seems like no color at all, no matter how many times I'd layer on it. The eyeshadows and powder are just 'flying' around like nobody business and it become so messy and dirty. Although the price tags are not high but still not justifiable with the quality of products. With all the above mentioned reasons, I'm still in love with their mascaras.

To be honest, the previous generation of Unstoppable, which in light bluish grey tube was just doing so-so on my straight and moderate long eyelashes but it did works effectively on lengthened my eyelashes. Although I won't consider my eyelashes are sparse but without mascara it just seems empty especially my inner eye area. Another problem with my eyelashes is, not matter how much I'd curl them, it'll remain straight after no time. Hopefully, this Maybelline Unstoppable Curly Extension Mascara will do what it promises.

For your information, it's so much cheaper to buy Kiss Me Heroin Make Long And Curl Mascara online as Sasa.com only selling at USD10.60 and Dejavu Fiberwig Mascara is only USD12.60.

In case you don't know, I'm a mascaras' lover. I have tons of mascara, majority drugstore brands because I'm such a stingy person! Hahahaha... I won't spend that kind of money on something, that I can only use for 3 months and most of the time I won't be able to finish them in such a short time as I have too many of them.

Edited: Sorry, my bad... I'd got the Kiss Me Heroin Make Long And Curl Mascara price tag wrongly. It's suppose to be RM47.00 / USD12.50 but not RM67.00 / USD18.00. So there's not much different between Sasa.com and my local Sasa shops. Sorry again... kekekeke...
