Maybelline Hypercurl Volum’ Express Mascara – Very Black Review
By Contributor: Shruti Gupta
I don’t like my eyes. I have a bad eye sight and a squint in left eye. So I tend to use a lot of kajals and mascaras to make them look pretty. But I do like my eye lashes. Thank god nothing is wrong with them! I picked up this mascara last month after reading good things about it. I am a college student and on budget, so I have to be super careful about what to buy and what not.
What the product claims:
Instant Volume-Building Express Formula quickly thickens eyelashes.
Ultra Waterproof formula ensures long lasting wear.
Curly Fix Formula fixes and curls up the lashes instantly for 75º curl lasting 18 hours.
Maybelline hypercurl volume express mascara is a great day time mascara when you don’t want too much going on with your lashes but would want some definition as well. It comes in a cute fat bottle which is very girly. The tube is black with pink embossed details and a shiny silver cap. The brush is a little curved to curl the eye lashes. It has small bristles which cover all the lashes perfectly.
What I like:
It is a daily office or college wear mascara because the volume it gives is perfectly suited for day time.
It quite long lasting as it stays on my lashes for the whole day.
It does not feel heavy on my lashes. I never feel I’m wearing something on my eyes.
The curl stays upto 6-7 hours easily.
Easy to remove. Use a makeup remover or baby oil.
I don’t use an eye lash curler with this one.
Apart from giving the curly effect, it lengthens my eye lashes too.
It opens up my eyes which are always swollen.
What I don’t like:
It clumps when you go for multiple coats.
Application on lower lashes and the inner corners is a little difficult and tends to becomes messy since the brush is quite fat.
By chance if it comes in contact with my contact lens while application, it starts to sting.
Let’s check the photos and swatches:
Price: Rs 200
VNA Rating: 3.5/5
Recommendation: This Maybelline Hypercurl mascara is a good day time mascara which gives a little volume and a lot of curling and lengthening effect to the lashes and is a nice budget option for college girls. Go for it if you aren’t looking for anything dramatic.
