Almay One Coat Nourishing Mascara


Net: Volume: 11.8 mL (0.4 fl. oz.)
Made in USA


Ingredients: c9-11 Isoparaffin, Cyclopentasiloxane, Aqua, Cyclohexasiloxane, Candelilia Cera ((Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelila) Wax) Cire de Candellilia), Ceresin, Lanolin Alcohol, Acrylates Copolymer, Polyethylene, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Tocopheryl Acetate, Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Panthenol, Potassium Cetyl Phosphate, Aluminum Hydroxide, Isopropyl Alcohol, Hydroxylated Lecithin, Dimethcone, Ammonium Hydroxide, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Propylparaben.
 May contain: iron oxides (CI77491, CI77492, CI77499)

My second review this week is about this wonderful mascara from Almay. I really like its formula because it does not clump like other waterproof mascaras and it does not sting on my eyes. It contains no additional fragrance so you can only smell the actual scent of the formula. The only downside of this mascara is its brush- it has big spaces in between as you can see in the picture. It makes it hard to control and sometiomes it clumps if I'm not careful. I use a different mascara wand instead.

Pros: 
  • has Aloe and Vitamin B5
  • unscented
  • lots of product inside (some mascaras only have 8mL of product)
Cons:
  • the wand
Overall a nice mascara!

Ever Bilena Thick Lash Mascara

Net Weight: 4 grams
Price: Php75
Made in Taiwan


Ingredients:  Water, Stearic Acid, Talc,Triethanolamine, CeraAlba, Cyclomethicone, PVP, Copernicia Cerifera Wax, Tocopheryl Acetate, Methylparaben, Butylparaben, CI77891, CI77499

I've been thinking about those mascaras that I have thrown out because they already stink or have gotten the product inside dry. :( I'm not a regular user of mascara and tend to use them more or less 20 times a tube until they are disposable. Good thing I saw this mascara! It comes in a very small tube with 4 grams weight (50% less product than other 7-8 gram mascaras). This mascara will save me money for I could finish it up before it expires. 


The brush as you can see is small so it took me a while to get used to it without getting the product onto my lids. The formula is NOT waterproof. It smells like any other mascara without added scent.

Pros:
  • cheap and good value for the buck! :)
  • has Vitamin E.
  • no clumping and flaking
  • no falling lashes
Cons:
  • the wand is hard to control at first
 Great cheap mascara!

Missha The Style 3D Mascara


Color: Black
Net Weight: 7 grams
Sale Price: Php171 + shipping fee         Original Price: Php190
Made in Korea



This is my very first Missha Product. I bought this thru eBay at 10% off. This is NOT waterproof. There's no ingredients list so I can only tell that there's no additional scent added. It smells like your regular mascara. The formula is quite thick and dry. Color is dark black. It doesn't make my lashes hard or brittle while wearing it. It just gives me soft black lashes. :)


The brush is a regular mascara brush. I would wanna try out the 4D version and compare the two. Hope I can have the other one in the future. :)



Pros:
  • affordable
  • does not clump
  • no falling eyelashes :)
Cons: nothing!
