Essence Get Big Lashes volume curl Mascara

hello

welcome to my blog 

my recent growing obsession has to be mascara, i just love the look of thick voluminous black lashes
since mascara come with the shortest life span i like to try drugstore mascara.

essence has a vast range of mascaras having fancy, cute and bright packaging, even the brushes are designed with absolute care




Essence Get Big Lashes volume curl mascara is one of the recent addition to the range, 

so lets get into the review shall we???


Quantity:12 ml 


Price: 430 pkr 




Packaging:


its a very vibrant red fat tube and has a ''e''  printed on top of it. the wand is medium sized and has a very fat brush on the end which is curved from on side 



About the product:


the formula of this mascara is very wet and runny. i guess it will thicken  and dry up  a little bit after some time.  due to its large brush its a bit trick to use this mascara as i am afraid that i might smudge it on my face or lid.

the curled part of the brush is perfect to lift up the lashes giving them a nice curl. these lashes give good volume to my lashes but not too much lenght which is ok with me as i always look for volumizing mascara. this mascara does not has any noticeable scent .



one thing i noticed when removing this mascara is that its not easily washable. i know this not waterproof mascara but the formula is a bit stubborn to remove with just soap and water 








overall i like this mascara, which mascara is your favorite???


essence is available at all leading pharmacy, beautybar.pk and daraz.pk

Olor 24 Hours Active Deodorant Review



hello, 

pleasant fragrances can have a very positive on your daily routine and activity they can make you feel cheerful, some scents bring back memories while fragrances can give you confidence and of course mask the smell of your sweat (this part was obvious)


today i will be reviewing the three newly launched 24hr active deodorant fragrances by Olor 

these are 
1.vibrant violet
2.rosy raspberry 
3.glamorous gold 




Packaging

these deodorants can have a very chic and slender designed spray can the caps fit quite well and have a nice nozzle which sprays the fragrances quite evenly. 

due to their vibrant design these bottles will look quite cute on the dressing table or in the purse 



About the product 

these deodorants are indeed quite long lasting, they dont smell overpowering but the scent is not feeble either. they come in a generous amount of 150ml. the best part they are ozone friendly. these  deodorants are manufactured in Norway 




and now i will describe each scent separate 


Olor Vibrant Violet

 Details: Iris and Black Current

top note : black current and iris blossoms 
base note: vanilla 

my thoughts:

this smells sweet and fruity also it sort of gives of cooling sensation 



Olor Rose Raspberry

 Details: Raspberry & Vanilla

top note blackcurrent ,raspberry
middle notes mandarin orange, carnation and cinnamon
 base notes  vanilla

My thoughts:



this fragrance despite the fact that it has raspberry does not have  a fruity scent at all but it smells quite pleasant. a bit masculine 





Glamorous Gold 

Details: lilac and amber 

Description;

top note: mandarin 
middle note: peach, lilac
base note; amber

my thoughts:

this has a regal scent if that is another way to describe the scent of betel nut( Mughal era???)



for the price these deodorants are quite a steal  as they are priced at about 200-250 pkr 

you can check out these and other deodorants from the range at the olor pakistan facebook page or visit www.olor.no for more details


out of all three deodorants which one would you like to try???

let me know in the comments section below !!



until next post bye

MUA mascara shade 6






hello again,

today i will reviewing a very colorful mascara that is something i would rarely use since i wear more  of a neutral makeup but then it looked so vibrant that i just couldn't resist 







Quantity: 5ml

price:210 pkr





Packaging:

its a simple electric blue tube same as the  shade of mascara has a very long wand and an average brush 

this mascara has the most weirdest texture i have ever used. it has  cotton fibers like fibers in it for giving volume and length i suppose. the color of the mascara is a vibrant electric blue




i have found another way to use this mascara that is by applying a coat of black mascara on top of this mascara gives thick false eyelashes like effect which is so pretty




for the price i think this mascara is  a bargain 


available at www.just4girls.pk and mua store online

Essence sheer and shine lipstick in BFF 03





 for the past few years the Revlon lip-butters have been quite popular among the you-tubers and the whole beauty community, despite the fact that Revlon is a drugstore brand the lip-butters are quite expensive in  here in Pakistan 

 a couple of years forward essence has come up with the sheer and shine lipsticks which are  similar in texture and pigmentation, also a lot affordable 

the sheer and shine lipstick has a wide variety of shades from sheer nudes to reds and pinks
i personally love wearing lipsticks having sheer formula as they require less effort during application, are hydrating give fresh and youthful look to the face 



Quantity:3.8 g


price 360 pkr


packaging:

this lipstick has a silver casing and a transparent lid similar to the shade to lipstick which makes it easier to locate in your makeup bag when in a hurry 
i feel that the casing  makes the lipstick look more expensive/ high end 

about the product :

BFF is a very beautiful watermelon pink/red colored lipstick. it is very sheer but the color is build able on multiple swipes, texture wise its like a lip-balm and hydrating 
the staying power however is poor it lasts for only two hours on the lips (average time a lip balm lasts on the lips) other thing that bothered me about this lipstick is the scent it has a strong vitamin E scent which is quite a turn off for me as i am quite sensitive to scents 





i purchased this lipstick from beautybar.pk 

you might like it:


if you like tinted lip-balms
you have chapped lips
you are starting out with makeup


you might not like it :

if you are looking for long lasting lipstick
you are sensitive to scents


i rate this product 3.5 out of 5
