I've said many times before that eye makeup is not my strong suit. It's only recently that I've been wearing eyeshadow more often (thanks to
this foolproof product), I rarely touch
false eyelashes, and
I really don't like wearing mascara because it makes my lashes feel heavy and uncomfortable.
But for Maybelline Lash Stiletto, I'll happily make an exception.
Price: P350.00
Location Bought: SM Hypermart
Approximate Date Bought: May 28, 2011

| Shinyyyy |
Packaging: Lash Stiletto comes in a sleek, glossy black square tube that really doesn't look like it's only a P350 mascara. I like that it's square because it doesn't roll off surfaces as easily.
 |
| It's tapered like a stiletto heel! |
Unlike most new mascaras today, there is no "innovative technology" for the applicator, but it gets its job done.
 |
| Nothing fancy here! |
Formulation: Lash Stiletto is your basic black mascara. It is meant to lengthen one's lashes, much like stiletto heels lengthen one's legs. I would rather prefer mascara that volumizes my lashes, but what I really like about this mascara is that it doesn't feel heavy. It also stays put the entire day, but is easily removable at home in the bathroom/in front of the dresser. I don't even need fancy mascara removers for this - baby oil works fine.
In Action: Here we have my bare lashes. I like to think they're long enough, hence my preference for volumizing mascaras over lengthening mascaras.

| Where are my lashes? |
And here is what the mascara looks like, without the help of an eyelash curler. I need to work on the lashes near the inner corner of my eye more. I'm not skilled enough (yet) to make the mascara reach them without poking my eye! :))

| Oh look, there they are! |
ETA 08/28/2011 6:58 PM: Today is the day I throw this mascara out, since I have this thing about keeping mascaras for only three months. Lash Stiletto is a good lightweight product, but I will not be purchasing it again since it's a lengthening mascara. I'll definitely try more of Maybelline's volumizing mascaras, however. :D
gusto kong itry to =) easy to remove ba sya or makalat.. mas gusto ko kasi yung nde nagbablack yung eye area pag nireremove.. =)
ReplyDeleteI got to try this! Thanks for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteI have this one too. I like it. Doesn't smudge and very long lasting and it's not heavy that my lashes wouldn't stay curled up! Although I prefer the volumizing mascaras of maybelline more. Nice pictures btw! :) -Dawn

I'd love to try this mascara soon. It made a huge difference on your lashes. It defined it more. You have long lashes! Lucky! I give this blog award to you. Take care! Nice review
