Mascara Monday: MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Gorgeous Wing BR777

Here is the latest from MJ! MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Gorgeous Wing BR777 is the most recent edition of the Lash Gorgeous Wing. They have just released another mascara but until that one, this one is the newest one. This time MJ decided to release a golden brown just for Christmas 2008. I really enjoyed the original Lash Gorgeous Wing so I automatically knew I had to try the golden brown one!


Here is my uncurled, plain, short, sparse and straight eyelash. And my cool new SANA curler! Loving it!


I had originally thought the brown would be more of a light brow brown but it actually is really goldish. It almost reminds me of light cardboard colour. It really wasn`t what I was looking for. Normally, I would find brown to be more of a natural colour on lashes but it just looks quite alien-ish on mine. The results of the mascara are pretty much the same as the other Lash Gorgeous Wing with the little lengthening fibers. It`s just only the colour that really puts me off. It`s just not natural for me!

Pros: Super smudgeproof, water-proof, fibres, lengthening, natural looking
Cons: Odd golden brown colour

Mascara Monday: MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Gorgeous Wing

Oh I'm slowly catching up with the MJ releases! This is from the recent Fall 2008 collection and it is the first of the fibre mascaras from MJ. This one is called MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Gorgeous Wing. They released it with only one colour available but now in the most recent collection there is brown. I have the first one which is the signature dark black. Like most fibre mascaras there are lots and lots of fibres that come out of a tube that stick to the ends of your lashes to lengthen. I've taken a close up of the fibres so you can be able to see them!


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


FINALLY! MJ has decided to release a mascara with a normal brush! I'm so tired of those comb ones because it takes much more required skill. I also find brushes tend to be more gentle on the lashes and application process. I love the brush! The fibres thing is also not a problem for me either. I like that it lengthens a little but in small doses. It does clump but not like loads and loads of mascara piled on. It honestly really looks very natural! I like this mascara so much that I don't even mind the clumping because I really like the result that it has on my lashes.

Pros: Super smudgeproof, water-proof, fibres, lengthening, natural looking
Cons: A bit clumpy, 1 colour

Mascara Monday: MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Enamel Glamour Neo

I think it's about time to update Mascara Mondays! I've actually had this review lying around for sometime but hadn't really put it up. I'm continuing on with the MJ line and this I will be talking about the MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Enamel Glamour Neo or the one with "Hope my lashes are full and smooth." As the title and cute description on the tube says, the mascara is intended for voluminous lashes. Lots of volume but clean volume, it promises! Well, let's see if it does what it says!


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


Honestly, there is a bit clumping as you can see. The lengthening factor is actually surprisingly there even though it is a volume boosting mascara. If only the volume part would've came out! As usual this mascara is also very waterproof and does not budge even with a day's sweat and tearing. I guess that's the greatest thing about MJ mascaras, that they live true to their word when it comes to waterproof. I think they are still working on the little kinks here and there within every single release of their mascaras. It's like the MJ evolution! So in conclusion, I do not find this mascara of a wow-must-get item. It did not work for me.

Pros: Waterproof, smudgeproof, lengthening(slightly)
Cons: No volume, clumps a bit, average mascara

Mascara Monday: MAJOLICA MAJORCA Silver Glitter Lash Freeze

As sad as it seems, I am not reviewing the latest winter edition of the MJ mascara but last year's winter limited edition mascara. This is the MAJOLICA MAJORCA Silver Glitter Lash Freeze. It is a silver glitter mascara that can be used as a top coat or alone. They don't sell this anymore but I have seen it online in a few places. I can probably say that the prices are going to be jacked up a bit since it is limited edition and whatnot.


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


I honestly got this for the "limited edition" thing. I don't like using glitter stuff on my lashes because I find most just run off or smudge and leave a huge sparkly mess around my eyes. Plus I don't have that many events to be using sparkly mascara. Well, at least there aren't any events that are worthy to go to the length of sparkly lashes. I would have to say most of the MJ holiday/special occasion/limited edition items aren't really to be used casual days. As for this mascara, it does have to be worn as a top coat/tip coat because as shown(in above pictures) it does not look great alone. I find that the shimmer isn't so obvious that if you are far away, someone would think you have some mad eye boogie gunk. But the good news is that the glitter stays on mad long! No glittery mess as I assumed! It does take forever and ever to remove as well. Another reason to only apply it on the tips only! Overall, this is really only a collector's item and I don't suggest getting it unless you're real serious with glitter or you just want to spend to collect.

Pros: Super smudgeproof, limited edition-wow
Cons: Glitter looks like gunk, hard to remove, discontinued

Mascara Monday: MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Enamel Glamor

Yay! You know what time it is! Why! It's Mascara Monday! Yippee! It's been a blast doing these entries! Today I bring you Majolica Majorca Lash Enamel Glamor! It is one of the other options when choosing a MJ mascara. There is the lengthening Lash Expander and I suppose this one is quite the opposite(seeing the name). The name Lash Enamel Glamor sounds like quite a veneer for the lashes. Almost like shiny nail varnish. In translation it must be a shiny wet glistening-in-the-spotlight type. Real glamour!


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


Not that I personally didn't like the effect the Majolica Majorca Lash Enamel Glamor gave off on my lashes but it just wasn't as impressive. It did not suit any of my needs at all. If I had wanted perfect, shiny and dark lashes, it would've been a winner. I'm really not into the "wet" mascara look but more structured and lengthy one. As the pictures reveal, the lengthening skill is quite on the minimal side. You can also see the glisten & shine of the mascara on my lashes too. It was a bit darker and a bit clumpy for me. I would think it'd be a great top layer after the Lash Expander but only a little! Is it great? Not really. It is worth buying? It all depends on you!

Pros: Waterproof, smudgeproof, dark, "wet" look
Cons: No volume, clumps a bit and no length.

Please come back next Monday for:

Macara Monday: MAJOLICA MAJORCA My Lashes Extend Elegantly

Mascara Monday! I'm excited to add more to my new project! This time I will be talking about Majolica Majorca My Lashes Extend Elegantly. There really isn't an official name that I can find for this mascara but I'd probably think it's referred to the newer version of the Lash Extender as the selling point is that it gives you 120% increase in length for your lashes. That's insane considering most mascaras in the western market only boost up to 90%! Can do this mascara do what it says and give a 120% boost to my short stubborn lashes??


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


Now my eye, curled, 1 layer of the Majolica Majorca My Lashes Extend Elegantly and combed out with a lash brush. For some reason, it doesn't seem all that great. It seems like the original Lash Expander did better. The formula is slightly the same but I found in this one it was much more wet and thick. By thick, I don't mean it making the lashes thick but the formula was rather wet gloopy. It also clumped quite a bit. My lashes looked really covered with black gunk so I had to use the lash brush to comb it out that is why it looks so natural in the pictures. Maybe it was a gimmick to release this one? Maybe it just doesn't work for me? Maybe it'll work for you.

Pros: Comb brush
Cons: No volume, clumps, wet, no 120% boost

Mascara Monday: MAJOLICA MAJORCA Lash Expander

It's Mascara Monday! I love mascara! Don't you? I have yet to find one that is awesomepants. I have found great formulas but not 100% the best one for me. So it's great that there is such thing as Mascara Mondays! Today I will be reviewing Majolica Majorca Lash Expander which is one of their older ones. The thing about MJ is that they come out with a newer and approved edition of the same mascara each collection and sometimes within those collections they have special limited edition ones. I think that's an awesome way to keep consumers attached but horrible for our wallets. But again since they come out with it every season, I suppose they want you to use their mascara from the time it got released to the time a new gets released so you will keep using it. I don't do that though. I like to mix it up here and there depending on how much time I have at the mirror. Lash expander is pretty much a lengthening mascara with a waxy like formula to coat.


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


Here is my curled and singled coated with Majolica Majorca Lash Expander eye. Quite a difference, right? It lengthened real well but yet still looks quite natural. There isn't much clumping either. Just a minor here and there that can be easily fixed with a lash brush. I liked that it also lasted pretty much the whole day without smudging or flaking around the outer corner of my eyes which is usually the case for all the other mascaras I own. The only thing that I don't really like about it that it doesn't give me enough oomph. I want thick and long lashes and this only gave me the long. But hey! This mascara really works and I'm not the only one who thinks that. A lot of beauty bloggers on the net are falling in love or in love with it. Move out natural fake lashes! Majolica Majorca Lash Expander is home!

Pros: Comb brush, lengthens real well, waterproof, smudgeproof
Cons: No volume, clumps a bit.
