It was introduced to me by Pinkiecharm! I love her reviews. Big fan of hers. Plus, she did this review way back then, until i saw those mascara AT WATSON!when i first saw it, i saw the brush was an exact dupe of rimmel sexy curves! Plus, the packaging is AWESOMELY CUTE!!!! Not a fan of Japan cosmetics, but this really arouse my curiousity :)

You can watch her here.

Have you tried this?

Wow the title is a mouthful. This is a high-end mascara which cost $38 retail price. One of my most expensive mascara i owned and i am not dissapointed. Initally, i was skeptical of this mascara as i feel that all mascaras work the same in general. You just need great curlers to curl our lashes and clump ur for extra volume. Well I was wrong.

"Unprecedented Bold Volume™ formula with 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. Ophthalmologist-tested. Fragrance-free."

Now, I have attached a video showing you how i apply this mascara. I do not intend to post this up but i think this is the best way to show you whether the mascara work or isnt. Well, if you can see, i do not need a second coat. The brush is tapered at the tip which makes my shorter lashes curl as well. It is amazing. It lengthens, volumize and curls! I have never worn such great mascara. I thought maybelline volum express is like the bomb, but this just took over it.

The mascara do not flake even after 12 hours of usage. It is easy to wipe/ clean off. And it has no scent. Which is great. The packaging is thin and sleek which makes gripping all the more comfortable. I am trying to point out any flaws in the mascara, but i fail to do so. Now, I have short lashes. Really short. This mascara makes me look like i have thick extensions on my lashes! I love it. The only bad thing i can say is the price. Very expensive for a mascara.

Product Rating: 5/5

Packaging: 5/5

Would I buy again? Yes, but i will try other cheaper alternatives as mascara only last for 3 months, so not worth it :)

Oh i hope i found like brave new bronze in the bus stop or it drops from d sky...haha! So here it is!

Thank you again for reading. :) I am heading back to write my essay. Hope you enjoy it as much as I DO!! WOHOOT!

My take:

To be honest, I was so into the packaging more than its product itself. But after trying Covergirl lashblast, I figured that there are no better mascara than the Great Lash! So, I tired this randomly one morning, tearing the lovely packaging apart and apply it.

When I open, it i saw the brush and absolutely love it. Its not tiny but just nice for my short lashes. Holding the brush, its very light and steady. And the smell, is abit strong, as many Youtubers claims to be, is abit tangy. It is quite strong, especially when you pull the brush from the tube. But when you apply it the smell diminishes. It didn't bother me at all. 

After my first application, I realized that it separates all my lashes. Lengthens, because as far as i know, my lashes almost reaches my eyebrow! And yes,  it curls. I am in LOVE WITH THIS! The fact that covergirl mascara leave me black markings on my under eye area after a long day, I wanted to try this and hope its not the same too. So, after 12 hours later, I see no signs of dark eye circle, the lashes kept curled and lengthen throughout the day. The best part about this mascara is that, I don't even need a second coat. And it feels way lighter on my lashes as if Im not using anything!

Product Rating: 5/5

Packaging: 5/5

Would I buy again? HELL YEAH!

I am so excited to post this up after my experience with the lash blast. I heard so much rave about it in Youtube which enough to make me go crazy! So, when I first got it, I was amazed of the packaging it had. In singapore, you will get mascara wrapped in plastic without any description on what it does to your mascara, only the advertisement on the beauty stan itself. I put this to tes for a whole day event. I was out under the sun for half of the day where I was perspiring and more. So, it was a full 9 hour of usage.  So lets go!

This is my first application. It definitely lengthens and separates my lash. When I had my second coat, i was shocked that my lashes do not clump! I was expecting it too. Definitely thickens my lashes. On my first application, the brush was so big, it hit my lids twice! Hahah! But after that, i kinda get use to it. The grip was nice, the brush was stiff and precise. I could even brush on my shorter lashes near my tear duct using the tip of the mascara wand. 

TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT MY LASHES. I swear, my lashes have never been this FULL BLAST ever! It curls up. How can my short lashes curls up? I have no idea. This mascara made my lashes be seen to the public! hahaha! It was amazing! Even my bf told me my lashes was extra long that day! And you know men, they will never observe you unless something sticks out out of the ordinary. haha! Ouh, incase you are wondering, I didn't even use a curler just so i could see the formula works on its own. This I am going to keep buying and buying and buying...I would go to America, and buy 100s...

Below, you will see how my lashes stands after 9 hours. I took this when I got home yesterday. Now, you do the reviewing...I REST MY CASE.

Oh, when i took the mascara off with an oil base eye make up remover, it was abit tough to come off...but other than  that..it was Fine Gurl~ And i was so shocked! I was browsing through my multiply, i saw this website, especially to my home gurls in Singapore, if you wanna get mascara out of Singapore, and have such a hassle to buy online, you could buy from them. THEY SELL the de-crease too!!! OMG! and im sure you wanna get them..cuz the review that is coming, ROCKS big time. Okay...again I am not paid to advertise them here..but yeah..if you are having such a hassle ordering online, you could get them at your doorstep faster than you could online...weeeeyyy! 

Continuing the GOOD POINT:

- Does not clumps.

- Makes my lashes look very natural.

Now, Comes the BAD POINT:-

- It works the same as many drugstore mascaras I tried.

- It does not hold my curls.

- It leaves bad markings under my eye circle after 5 to 7 hours of use. Which is bad!!!

My take:

I receive this as a gift from the Lancome Oscillation RoadShow and it came in a small tube. I love how the mascara wand are curvy. When I apply it, i was stunned at how good it separates my lashes. Suddenly my lashes look so much and thick! I apply it with only 2 strokes, and my lashes are FABULOUS! BUT, as the day goes on, my curls doesn't hold up!.. I was so disappointed. PLUS it leaves black markings on my under eye circles! It was so bad..I told my besties "lets hope the mascara doesn't work so we don't need to get them as they are pricey"....and lucky for me, i can stick with maybelline. :) So even when its a  high end product, it does not mean its that any greater than drugstore products are. 

We have no idea what we were going to do today, but as we were shopping aorund, we saw the launch. Standing within the crowd to see the make up session displayed, we were fascinated by the mascara. It is the first auto-vibrating powermascara by Lancome. It has a battery in it. And you can only apply 90 times with normal mascara but you can apply up to 180 times with the Lancome Mascara. It lengthens, seprates and gives volume. Those were the answer to one of the quizzes we answered! :)                  

BESTIES AND I WON LANCOME QUIZ PRIZES! We answered 3 of the 5 quizzes the MUA asked, and we got mini prizes from Lancome! WOW! So, WHat did we get?! Here it is:

An eyeliner kohl which I gave to my mom, and a sample size mascara by LANCOME! I cant wait to try it! I told the girls to give me reviews on each of their opinions, since the three of us has it, and then I shall input it here, in case anybody is interested to get one. We had so much fun at the roadshow! :)

I was readin kimoko.livejournal.com , when she introduces this lovely magazine for just $2 with so much tips inside! So, I went down today after work and got it. It is only 64 pages but it has great contents. These are few of my favs! I have the pictures in LARGE mode so that you can read as well so even if your not in SGP, you can get a tip or two! :)

I heard so much good things about this mascara. I would say one word. DISAPPOINTING. I have always been a maybelline mascara user and I know they never fails. This is form my own experience and opinions. I will break down into pros and cons. Here they are.

PROS:

- Primer is smooth and wet and has an extension fibre tubes on your lashes.

- Very visible lengthening agent.

- No clumps.

- No strong smell.

- Takes off easily. Good for the lazy beauties. You can wash it with water and everything comes off.

CONS:

- Does not keep the curl. After a few hours my lashes seemed long and straight.

- When washing it off, it irritates my eyes, the wet fiber gets in my eyes a couple of time. 

- No added volume at all.

Packaging : 5/5

Product: 3/5

Will I buy again? No.
