The Products
Within this look there's a couple brands I've never used before such as Glo&Ray & Fairydrops. I was sent the Glo&Ray Eyebrow Pencil in Terra Brown, albeit too light for my eyebrows but it makes a good liner for the lower lash, a pencil is a pencil. I've yet to sharpen the pencil but out the box, the pencil I have isn't buttery soft but it's not skin tugging hard, as it's meant for the brows, it gives light strokes of colour pay off. I'm going to sharpen it soon and see if it makes any difference. Created by one of Japan's leading t.v. personalities, to create lashes with length and separation, Fairydrops Scandal Queen Waterproof Mascara is not just a mascara with visible benefits but nourishing ones too with squalene, jojoba seed oil, panthenol, hydrolyzed collagen and moisturising hyaluronic acid within the ingredients. This mascara also promises to keep your lashes curled and in position all day thanks to film-forming polymers. I have a habit of using curlers no matter what but I have to say with some mascara's I will curl my lashes and it'll droop over the hours whereas this one is holding up pretty well 5 hours later. There wasn't any clumping and I used 2 - 3 coats on my lashes and it doesn't look over applied in my opinion.
I think also the fantastic selling point about this mascara is the fibres, I've not experienced any fibres flaking into my eyes but amongst the mascara you can see the fibres ready to attach themselves to your own. I've not noticed any thickening but it gives good enough length for my liking. The wand has a squiggling shape with 3 bobbles that have different widths and lengths, pushing the lashes up as you comb and wiggle through creating lashes to last the day.
