Wow,
what a mascara! You can buy it in black onyx or dark chocolate. I went for the
black one. I’m using my new mascara now for a week. And I absolutely love it.
The brush is relatively soft and the “bristles” are densely arranged. The
result is just amazing even after only one coat. My eye lashes look dense and
longer and really enhance my eyes wonderfully. My eyes look bigger and
more expressive. I usually have very sensitive eyes but I didn’t have any
problems wearing this formula. It lasted all day without smudging. It’s very
easy to apply without clumping thanks to the chunky wand. It perfectly
separates and coats every single eyelash. It doesn’t flake even after hours of
wear.
I’m
not quite sure if the brush is suitable for the bottom lashes – just because of
its size. I have to admit that I use the Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara because I
always have problems applying mascara to the bottom eyelashes.
One
of the ingredients is Pullulan, which gives the formula its honey-like
consistence and lengthen the eyelashes.
Apparently
you can get the mascara just with warm water off. I didn’t try as I always wear
eye shadow, too. So I use a makeup remover.
This
mascara contains no paraben, which is really good news. Some other of the
ingredients might give reason to some concern: Bismuth Oxychloride (CI
77163) harbours a risk of poising (so don’t eat it). Chromium Hydroxide Green
(CI 77289) and Chromium Oxide Greens (CI 77288) contain Chrome. Yellow 5 Lake
(CI 19140) also known as Tartrazine can cause allergic reaction as migraines,
itching, etc. in some people. Chlorphenesin is a synthetic preservative.
The major adverse effect from this preservative on skin is allergic
contact sensitivity.
This
is a mascara, which convinced me by its performance. It’s definitely a re-buy
product as long as the ingredients agree with you and you don't use any other products containing Chrome.
