Some days ago I reviewed Fairydrops Candy Bar BB Cream. I loved it so much I proceeded to go on ahead and try another Fairydrops product — Fairydrops Volume Burst Mascara (Waterproof).
As always, the cute and colorful packaging is a winner. I would definitely pick this up from the rack on the sheer merits of packaging alone.
There is actually a non waterproof version of this and it comes in a pink tube. Purple tube means waterproof.
The mascara wand itself is shaped differently from all the others I’ve tried. It claims to grip the lashes between balls to push them up for curls without the clump.
I’m always up for challenging product promises and so I used the Fairydrops Volume Burst Mascara without using the eyelash curler. I wanted to see if it could really curl my lashes on its own. What do you think? I think my eyelashes did get lift, volume, and length after application. Of course if you want a more eye-opening effect an eyelash curler would still give you more curl and lift.
Despite being lengthened, thickened, and slightly curled, my lashes retained a light and wispy feel which I liked. They didn’t feel heavy or weighed down.
Oh yeah, after I got home from the day’s activities, I proceeded to test just how waterproof this mascara is. I splashed water all over my face focusing on my eye areas. Yes, I drenched my lashes really good. See? No running or smudging, right? You can be confident that this mascara will stay through the tears and sweat, hehe.
I patted my face dry with a facial tissue right after and voila, my lashes were good as new! Props to the Bobbi Brown Long Wear Eye Pencil which I used for this test too. It also didn’t budge!
What I like about Fairydrops Volume Burst Mascara (Waterproof):
- It delivers what it promises — volume and curl even without an eyelash curler! It’s perfect for those who don’t like using a curler.
- It lengthens and darkens your lashes too.
- It’s completely waterproof as you can see in the photos above.
- It’s not hard to remove! Considering that it’s waterproof, wow! I was surprised that I had an easier time removing this compared to other mascaras both waterproof and non-waterproof.
- I find it reasonably priced at P950 per tube. Exceptional mascaras usually cost above P1k. I feel that for everything it does, it’s good value for money.
- There’s no scent! Yes, I have actually encountered weird-smelling mascara.
This has officially become my favorite mascara. Since both the waterproof and non-waterproof variants cost the same, I recommend getting the waterproof one like the one I reviewed above. Looks like I’ll be getting this again when I run out!
Fairydrops Volume Burst Mascara is available at all Beauty Bar outlets nationwide for P950 in two formulations, film-type and waterproof. Click HERE for a complete list of stores or buy online from http://shop.beautybar.com.ph/.
