Red Earth Clear Mascara Monday, February 12, 2007

Item: Clear Mascara
Brand: Red Earth
Price: RM35 (bought in sasa)
Product Description: "This clear mascara is fortified with with ProVitamin B5 to thicken and strengthen weak lashes."

Reason:
I have almost non-existant eyelashes. Also, I have bad, horrible skills in applying mascara as well. I will either:
1) apply mascara on my eyelashes which eventually get smudged all over my eyes due to my clumsiness.
2.) poke my eyes.
3.) I hate hate hate clumps on my eyelashes. It looks disgusting and fake. It's like telling everyone in the world that i OBVIOUSLY used a mascara.

Enough torture with black mascaras..so i switched to clear ones. To me, my personal criteria for an ideal mascara will be:
1.) Waterproof
2.) Long lasting
3.) thick texture (as in i dont like diluted mascara. It's like applying water on my lashes).
4.) In hope to cheat people with my upright eyelashes...hehehe.
5.) lenghens eyelashes at the same time

First Impression:
Bloody thing has no details. God knows what the hell i just bought. I had to ask the sales girl and she said it's waterproof and is a popular choice among women because this mascara gives a very natural effect. Rights, honestly i was very doubtful because i suspected her of bullshitting. So i dont know what had gotten into me, i bought it anyway.

Review:

It's like putting water on my eyes. The texture of the mascara is so diluted. I thought i was cheated and accused the product for being an imitation. First try has no freaking difference. I felt like killing the sales girl. Eventually after 5 applications and the help of an eyelash curler for about like another 5 times *boohoo*, my eyelashes are still upright. My lashes didnt clump. Yeay. The watery-gel texture dried up and it was so lightweight that i forgot that i even used a mascara. Hooray. So i guess if u want upright eyelashes, u need to go through repetitions of applying and curling b4 u decide to leave ur mascara at home.

Rating:
4 out of 10. I'm sure there are better clear mascaras out there.
