Fashion21 Double Up Mascara review.
PRICE: P239.00
FROM: Landmark, Festival Mall, Alabang
OTHER LOCATIONS: Available in leading department stores
THE VERDICT:
Fashion 21 is one of the brand's best- selling products, thanks to Beauty vloggers, bloggers, and gurus who have been raving about how good this product is. I picked up a tube when I passed by their stall in a mall and have been using it for about a week now.
Is it really as good as Beauty influencers say?
Ingredients
Double Up mascara is a lengthening mascara that promises to make lashes two times longer and stronger. It promises to be long- lasting and comes in one shade, black.
For starters, I think the packaging of this mascara looks quite stylish. I like the popping red color and the shape of the tube.
The applicator is a plastic bristle with evenly- spaced bristles, which is a giveaway that this is a lengthening mascara. I have a slight aversion to plastic bristles because they feel a bit irritating when they touch the underside of the lids, but I'm pleased to know that this one has soft, rounded plastic bristles that don't irritate at all. P.S. I love using this wand on my lower lashes!
A lot of beauty influencers, particularly vloggers would sing praises for this mascara; I've watched videos saying "It's the best", "it's amazing", "i love it", and so on so I had to try it myself. Here's how the product fared on me:
Bare lashes
One coat
Hmmm. Promising. I like the pigmentation and the way it lifted my lashes.
Second coat
The product has a smooth cream texture and it doesn't dry up quickly plus has a tendency to clump and give a spider lashes effect; that is if you try to go beyond the second coat so I would advise you to stop by this round. The mascara gives a pretty good lengthening and defining effect in the first two rounds so no need for a third.
It lasts the whole day, but it is not tagged as waterproof so I don't use it to my work out.
Formula can be a bit better, but I can see why this mascara is well- loved by some because it has its merits: One, it lengthens effectively, two, it lifts lashes and keeps it that way for hours, lastly, it lasts long. It's a breath of fresh air from Maybelline and other popular mascara brands in the market, and I can see myself picking up another tube when I finish this one because the wand is so perfect for my lower lashes!
Have you tried this mascara already? What's your verdict?
