Hello Ladies !! I am a full on mascara junkie and I love hoarding up on mascaras.....I always tend to experiment with different kinds of mascaras....today, I am going to be reviewing a mascara by the Absolute range of lakme.....
SO, lets get started !!!
SO, lets get started !!!
WHAT THE PRODUCT CLAIMS
Intense volume
waterproof
smudgeproof
long lasting hold
PRICE
INR 450
MY TAKE
1. The packaging is plain black and it has a long wand with medium thickness of bristles
2. The bristles are quite coarse and small and stiff...the shape of the bristles is nothing special...its similar to the regular mascaras
3. The claims of being waterproof are true as it does not ruin my eyes when I cry...lol
4. You will see in the pictures below that it does not do anything dramatic to my eyes....so I don't think its a very good mascara...I am not a big fan of it..
5. It clumps like crazy...even after only 1 coat, I see a lot of clumping....
6. It dries really fast...which makes it difficult to work with
You can see that it does not make much difference even after 3 coats...and clumps and spreads everywhere
*For the purpose of true demonstration, I have not curled my eyes with an eyelash curler
LIKES
1. Waterproof
2. Lasts a long time
3. Affordable for a mascara
DISLIKES
1. Boring packaging
2. regular wand
3. No volumizing affect
4. Normal curling effect..nothing too special
5. Clumps and smudges
6. Ingredient list not mentioned
FINAL RATING
2.5/5
I will not buy this again and won't recommend it to anybody, however, its an ok mascara for the prize, but maybelline mascaras are cheaper and work better than this one
till the next post

DeleteSucks about the clumping. Wish you better luck with a different mascara.
ReplyDeleteyea....thanks cheryl :)
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteWhen I was reading the article , I thought of mentioning Maybelline mascara in my comment which I use. And in the end I got the same name from you i.e Maybelline. Did you try Maybelline Collosul Kajal ? I am just thinking of buying that after seeing the advertisement everyday on TV.
Thanks for review.
no I have not tried that yet bhabi...but many of my friends and sisters have...I even gave it to Ekta bhabi and she loves it...you should definitely buy it
DeleteI would like a suggestion from you on how to apply eye make up if you wear glasses. The problem is compounding. if you don't wear them, you can't see and if you wear them, well, :) :)
ReplyDeleteAlso not a big fan of Lakme eye make. It irritates the eyes and itches.
Awesome detailed review and good presentation. Keep up
Hi di.....I suffer from the same problem as I prefer wearing glasses over contacts...I have started a series of "makeup with glasses", Its first tutorial has been posted on my blog a while ago...I'LL give you a link of my first makeup with glasses tutorial..i Hope it helps !
