Product Review: Samoa H2O Lashes Mascara

My Dearest Beauties,

Let me just start by saying that this is straight out a really good mascara. At 15,000 LL (10$), it performs excellently! It is a waterproof and volumizing formula, it really works amazingly at volumizing and maintaining the curl all day long (I'm a straight down eyelash girl, and the only thing that keeps my eyelashes curled is a really goof waterproof mascara). My eyelashes are not only very straight but my eyelids tend to get really oily and a lot of mascaras give me the not so cute panda eyes, this one thankfully is waterproof enough not to allow that to happen; I even tested it at the gym and I didn't get any signs of panda eyes.

One last thing that I surprisingly really enjoy about this mascara is the wand. At first I saw it and thought it was too gimmicky for my liking but the shape of the brush is actually really good at getting those hard to get little hairs on the inner and outer corners of the eyes.

After Coats of Samoa H2O

I applied several coats without dipping the wand back into the tube to get this much volume and length. Mind that I do like clumpy lashes, but if you don't, just get an old and clean mascara wand and comb through them to get separation. What do you think?

Much love,

Long, Luscious & Curly Lashes

My Dearest Beauties,

Some of us were not blessed with those amazing super long, thick and curly lashes. Well, don't worry, a lot of mascaras out there got us covered. My lashes are of the same nature as the hair on my head; they are thin and straight. I tried a lot of different mascaras claiming to hold the curl while adding volume and length. Unfortunately, my lashes ended up longer and thicker but they were never perky and curly. Having really oily skin made me try waterproof mascara and that was when I realized that waterproof mascaras are the only ones that hold the curl.

Let's just jump right into my current eyelash routine. You will end up with curly lashes that are longer and thicker at the same time. I use three super effective products:

1. Tweezerman Eyelash Curlers: I carefully curl my lashes as close to the base as possible. 
2. L'Oreal False Lash Effect Lash Architect 4D Waterproof Mascara: this mascara adds length by adding tiny micro fibers. I use it from the base to the ends of my lashes to secure the curl. But, because it is very lengthening I concentrate most of the product on the ends of my lashes.
3. Dali Full Volume Mascara: I finish off with this volumizing mascara and I concentrate it on the base of my lashes. I love this one because it makes my lashes thicker without clumping them together, which is always a plus for thin lashes.  

What is your mascara routine? Tell me in the comments!

Much love,
