Here's a review on Ever Bilena HD Mascara in Rich Black

PRICE: P250.00
PLACE BOUGHT: Mercury Drug, The Fort, Taguig City
OTHER LOCATIONS: All Mercury Drug outlets; Ever Bilena counters in malls nationwide


THE VERDICT:

I got pretty curious at Ever Bilena's newest HD line because not only it is affordable, it is apparently comparable to some high- end foreign makeups out in the market.


The HD mascara comes with two free HD eye pencils. I wasn't able to test them because I gave them to my house helpers. They always get a share of what I have. :)



Tube is pretty sturdy, yet pretty heavy. I don't like bringing this around because it's just too huge.


The wand and the bristles are made of plastic. It would've been better if it were made from natural or synthetic bristles though. These plastic bristles are pretty hard!


It comes with very thin and short fibers that lengthens lashes. By the way, this is more of a lengthening than a volumizing product.

See how it fared on my lashes:


Oops! I applied eyeliner first prior to taking pictures. I hope you could see my bare lashes from this angle.

It did a good job at lengthening due to those fibers. But the fibers are so thin and short, they're protruding and staying in all the wrong places. It looks pretty obvious that my lashes has fake extensions here.

It's also not waterproof as advertised, but it holds up well on my lashes. However, it flakes a bit around the end of the day.

When you say High Definition or HD makeups, they should be almost undetectable. But looks like this mascara will not pass Film and T.V. standards. But for normal wear, it's okay. People won't really recognize those weird extensions unless someone looks at your lashes closely.

Will I buy it again? Nope. But if you're a beauty on a budget, I would still recommend it as it's not a really bad product after all. If you end up not liking the product, at least it has eyeliners. I think Ever Bilena's star products are their eyeliners. Methinks it will work well on people with short but thick lashes.
