Majolica Majorca Mascara

Today I have an Asian mascara that I picked up in Hong Kong to share, I have heard so many good things about this brand of mascaras so I knew I wanted one of them! From reviews it seemed like the Lash Expander Frame Plus would be my best bet.


I have to say that the packaging of this mascara is gorgeous! I love the gold and black and the opulent lid with the Majolica stamp on the top.


This mascara contains fibers in it which are supposed to attach to the ends of your lashes making them physically longer. This is the first fiber mascara I've tried and while most of the fibers go where they should, some stick out in the wrong direction or not at the end of the eyelash. This can be fixed easily with a comb through of a lash comb or spoolie. 


The wand is quite a funny shape that takes some getting used to but one I have grown to love! it extremely skinny has a curved end of zig-zags and a straight end. I typically find it's easier to catch all my lashes with the straight side. The comb defines the lashes amazingly. I find it creates great length and definition making it quite a 'natural' look. I find the only area it lacks in is volume, which can be fixed by layering it over a volumizing mascara.


The formula is waterproof and smudge-proof and relatively easy to take off (provided you use a makeup wipe or remover). I really like this mascara and it might just be my new favourite! It will be a sad day when this runs out...
