My Mascara Collection & Mini Reviews
Aside from being a blush and lipstick junkie, I love hoarding mascara! Look how my collection have grown! Most of them are almost new, and I have not used the last on the right. Don’t judge me! Some of you may not like that I opened them up at the same time, but I really can’t help it! Hehe. I don’t keep track of how old they are, but I know I have to toss them out once the consistency had changed or if they no longer work as I like.
Below is the complete list from left to right.
1. Maybelline Great Lash Limited Edition in Blink of Blue – I bought this from Bon Marche for Php230. It is a great mascara and the color is dark blue. I thought this will give me an opaque blue lashes, but it did not. I still love to use this if I will run some quick errands. It is not waterproof so it will smudge after some time.
2. Avon Super Shock Max Waterproof Mascara – I got this from my Avon Special Edition Glamourbox. I think it has already dried up because I had it since July 2013. This mascara holds the curl and does not smudge. It is one of the mascaras that I will recommend and repurchase.
3. Benefit They’re Real Mascara – Need I say more? This mascara is part of my favorites and I have reviewed it here. I love this mascara and I recommend it!
4. CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara in Black Brown – I have reviewed this here. I had the black shade before, and I bought this shade so that I can use it if I want a softer looking eyelashes. This was my favorite mascara right before I tried the Benefit They’re Real.
5. Clinique High Impact Waterproof Mascara – One of the best mascaras I have tried. Definitely holds the curl for a long time and does not smudge! Definitely worth buying!
6. Fairy Drops Platinum Mascara Waterproof – I got this for FREE from Sample Room! Yay! It was the first item given on their 12 Days of Christmas promo. This is a great mascara except for the fibers. I am not really a fan of the fibers in any mascara because most of the time, it goes inside my eyes, or travel all over.
7. Fashion 21 Double Up Mascara – I have not used this so much because if I remember correctly, it does not dry fast enough as I want it to. I will try it out again, and will post a separate review in the future.
8. Majolica Majorca Lash Expander Frame Plus – I bought this from Gem of rarevanity‘s Makeup Blog Sale. I wanted to try Majolica Majorca products, so I got this. I did not expect that the shade was blue, like its’ packaging. Hehe. It has fibers, so sad to say I didn’t like it that much, but it really curls the lashes.
9. CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara in Black – This is just a non-waterproof version of the above. I use this for quick errands. I think the formula is not the same with the waterproof version because this does not curl my lashes that much, but I still like it.
10. Tony Moly Party Lover Base Mascara – This is not a mascara, but a primer. It has fibers that coats the eyelashes, and promises to prolong the wear. I have not really used this for the whole day, but it helps in curling and thickening the lashes.
11. Too Faced LashGASM – This mascara was included on my Too Faced Beauty Editor Darlings Set. I love this mascara because it holds the curl the whole day. It separates my lashes well, and it does not clump!
12. Clinique High Impact Mascara – Not used yet, but I expect it to have the same qualities as other Clinique mascaras.
So those are all the mascara I have hoarded so far! Let me know if you want some snapshots of how they apply on my lashes, and I would be happy to do so.
Hope you liked this post! Have a great week, guys!

Wow! You have sooo many mascaras! 😀 The packaging of the Fairydrops one looks shiny and cute, but what I’d love to try out in the future is Benefit’s They’re Real. Been reading lots of rave reviews about it! 🙂
Juvy
The Benefit’s They’re Real is worth a try. It is the best one I’ve had so far. 🙂
Fred

Hey Juvy. I will confess something: I also disregard the mascara 2-month rule. HAHAHA! I don’t know. I just don’t care! As long as my eyes don’t sting, I feel like I can wear them. I’m disciplining myself this 2014 and so far, so good. My current opened mascara isn’t very pretty though and I’m tempted to open up a few new ones, hahaha!
Juvy
I think it’s ok to continue using them if they are for personal use, and you don’t really use them everyday. 😀 Naku, discipline is not in my vocabulary. I am too stubborn! >_<
Shari
One of my main goals as a beauty blogger is to REVIEW ALL THE MASCARAS~~ haha! Seriously though, Im on the lookout for the BEST one for our sparse Asian lashes! I’ve actually tested Clinique High Impact and may go for a full tube of that soon 😉 Thanks for all the reviews!
