Here's an initial review on VMV Hypoallergenics Ooh La Lash Volumizing mascara
PRICE: P1100.00
PLACE BOUGHT: Free
OTHER LOCATIONS: All VMV Hypoallergenics boutiques and counters
THE VERDICT:
Got this as a freebie during their September Skin Soiree. If you want to score yours, don't miss their Skin Soiree this coming April and September 2012!
Moving forward, let's take a look at their only (?) mascara, shall we?
The mascara gunk is mousse- like in texture, and it has hair fibers in it that are meant to add more volume to your lashes. However, I find the tube opening pretty small for the brush, and wasting some valuable mascara gunk is quite inevitable. I hope the upcoming batches will have wider tube openings, so the wands will easily slip in and out of the tubes.
So will it impress a mascara aficionado like moi? :) Let's find out!
Bare lashes
One swipe
Two swipes
Vavavoom lashes in three swipes! :D
At first, the mascara is a bit hard to work with because I've found out that the gunk dries up pretty quickly. But when I've gotten the hang of it, I finally saw why it's called Ooh La Lash! Those little fibers mixed in the mascara gunk thicken instead of lengthen. Thanks to the packed mascara wand, which is very effective in making my lashes look lush and dramatic!
It's a bit pricey for something you'd throw away in less than 5 months. But if you have sensitive eyes, or if you simply want an almost chemical- free mascara, I highly recommend this. It is fragrance- free, Paraben- free, patch and allergy tested, and proudly Filipino made! I would definitely buy this again, but not anytime soon because I still have A LOT of mascara tubes to empty. :p
