Review: Avon Supercurlacious Mascara!

I've did it again! I've went a purchased yet another mascara. However this one I got as a freebie with Marie Claire Magazine when I was on my way to Paris. I'm not too sure how much the magazine itself was as I don't often buy magazines unless they have something which I would really be interested in, like wise a article or freebie in this case.

Here's the mascara itself...

The photo blurred, but this mascara is in shade "black".

Here's what the wand looks like...


Here's Supercurlacious in action...

L-R: Before, After.

Here's another picture, there is no mascara on the left eye and Supercurlacious on the right eye.


This mascara does some great stuff for my lashes! If your a regular reader of my blog you will know my all time favourite curling mascara is NYC's City Curls. But this has totally changed my opinion! 

I love practically everything about this mascara! The packaging is sturdy, doesn't really stand out from other mascara's, but does do its job. I'm in love with the wand! As most of you know I love wands with plenty of bristles, especially ones that are really close together. I'm also quite keen of a slight curl to the wand, as I find this sometimes helps even out the product. This mascara ticks all those boxes! I definitely think the wand helps to the outcome of this mascara. My only complaint would be the length of the wand itself as it is quite long it sometimes makes it hard to work with. 

The formula is amazing too! This is definitely a mascara that requires more then 1 coat, I tend to use 2 coats. It gives the lashes a thin coat of mascara, which I love as I'm a sucker for build able products. The formula boasts lashes to give a quite natural looking curl. It can clump, but only minimal. It depends on how you apply the mascara as long as you zig-zag the bristles through the lashes from root to tip. It didn't flake off, nor did the curl fade. 

Overall I would highly recommend this mascara to others with long, straight eyelashes like wise me. This mascara performs really well, and I would easily consider repurchasing this when I run out. I'm so glad I decided to purchase the magazine.

Review: NYC City Curls Curling Mascara

This mascara is definitely one of my holy grail products, as cheesy as it sounds. It was in my April and May favourites so i thought it was in definite need of reviewing.



In shade "Carbon" so basically black.


The wand was slightly more curved then that, but i bent it in the tube to avoid getting mascara all over my eye lid.


Here's a closer look.

 
Before mascara, not great quality but...


After mascara!

The packaging isn't my favourite, it looks slightly cheap to be honest. Its pink plastic, but does its job and at least its my favourite colour;) 
The wand is fairly short, in my opinion. Which i always look for in a mascara as I think gives you more control when applying. The bristle bit was actually more curved then it is in the picture, I've tired curling mascara in the past with wands similar to this. So from my experience I decided to bend the bristle bit, which consists of short plastic. I really like the wand and think it really helps to give that extra boast and added curl and separating. 

I love the formula! This just doesn't seem to clump at all! You know those mascara's you buy, and when you apply a certain amount of coats it seems to clump? Well this certainly doesn't do that! It gives a definite curl, which is great if you have straight, but fair-ish lengthened lashes like mine. It also gives a black coat to the lashes. The curl lasts all day, well at least until I take my makeup off. And doesn't flake off. 

Overall I would highly recommend this mascara to anyone who is looking for a great curling mascara. It gives a long lasting, black curl which provides a very natural day time look. You can buy this from selected Superdrugs only, for around £2-£3.
