I bet you were wondering when I was going to try the next weird mascara, right? RIGHT. I have your back. I am still loving my
Fairydrops but it's starting to get a little dried out so I thought it was time to try something new. Someone recommended the
Shiseido Majolica Majorca Lash Expander Edge Meister Mascara (seriously, whaaaaaah?) and it showed up almost immediately thanks to the magic of
Amazon Prime.
First, the packaging is adorable. It's just really pretty and appealing and that makes me happy. And then there's the brush:
 |
| fibery! |
Oh, that is some Advanced Mascara action right there. The formula is fairly wet and
very fiber-y and the flat brush took a little bit of practice. The result after a few coats was very long, feathery lashes. I actually had to pull off a couple of the fibers because it made my lashes too long. What it's not great at is volume. My lashes were super long, but it doesn't really thicken unless you do multiple coats. It did have decent staying power, though. Here's my before and after for the
Lash Extender:
 |
| Before - sad and stubby |
 |
| After - long and fluttery |
Good stuff. I will say that I think the
Fairydrops (
reviewed here) does a better job with staying power and volume and is a bit easier to apply, but your mileage may vary. These are both very nice, very advanced formulas if you want all day fiber-length in your life.
You've convinced me to give mine another try- in conjuction with my FairyDrops perhaps, though, for volume
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try that! Great suggestion. (And sorry I thought you'd recommended it! I had it saved in my Amazon cart so I assumed it was you. Eep.)
DeleteNo matter, it worked for you! And honestly, the first time I used the Deja Vu I was disgusted with it- but it turned out to be one of my favorites, go figure - so maybe I just judged too quickly with Der Edgemeister-
ReplyDeleteSometimes I think mascara needs a little age on it before it works correctly.
