Mascara Monday: Fairy Drops Mascara


Fairy Drops Mascara has always caught my attenton with it's unique designed brush. The brush comes in a weird stacked "bubble" shape which reminds me of an ant's body. It comes in a very nice pinkish tube with some cute deco around it. The mascara promises rich volume, extra curl and no clumping. The way the mascara actually works is that the "bubbles" actually catch your lashes and curl them around the shape of the ball. It does seem pretty gimmicky doesn't it?


Here is my uncurled, plain, short, sparse and straight eyelash.


The mascara isn't that bad actually! I honestly thought it would suck and that my money went down the drain but I was wrong. I really like the effect that the mascara gave me. It is definetely a weird brush but the concept of the lashes forming around the "bubble" is pretty great. My lashes even look like the description picture included. My lashes have the natural curl and lots of length plus it doesn't really have any clumping problem. The only real problems I have with this mascara is that it smudged around the outer corner of my eye and it is a bit hard to maneuver with the "bubble" brush in the little nooks of the eye and around the lower lash. In conclusion, this mascara is a win-lose one for me. I like the result and concept but the brush design somewhat doesn't work with it's different sizes here and there. Now there is a newer edition called "Fairy Drops Platinum" which promises more length and more volume. I think I'll be skipping that one though.

Pros: Cute tube packaging, interesting "bubble" brush, great curl and length, hardly any clumping
Cons: 1 colour, smudges, hard to reach the inner areas and do precise application.

The brush is identical to rimmel sexy curves mascara. You should check it out if you like the brush!

I also like mascara with brush applicators so I was planning on getting this one too but I guess I'll be looking for other mascara with brush applicator. I can't get mascara that has a tendency to smudge.

Inspiring Beauty Creator: Thanks for visiting! I saw the one by rimmel! I wanted to try it out but it's not waterproof =(

Eka: Yeah, it's hard to find a mascara that doesn't smudge. I think it's the shape of our Asian eyes. The almond thing.
