REVIEW --> Maybelline Long Extreme Stiletto Mascara

            So my initial purchases from the Maybelline counter last December 2011 included  the Maybelline Long Extreme Stiletto Mascara. At first I was hesitant because I still have my Avon Supercurlacious Mascara but I have always been a fan of Maybelline mascaras and this sale was an opportunity that I can't ignore! So to cut the long mind- battling short, I did buy it! haha. Maybelline mascaras are the B-O-M-B. They never fail to deliver no matter what formula I try, plus they are so affordable, that is why I got excited when a Maybelline counter opened here in our place. The very first thing I grabbed out of their stall was the Maybelline Long Extreme Stiletto Mascara (what is it with maybelline and long names? hehe). The original price was P350 but i got it for P250 coz of the 30% sale. great buy isn't it?

According to the Maybelline website:

       Finally, the no.1 lengthening mascara in the USA has landed on Philippine shores! The new LONG EXTREME STILETTO Ultimate Length Mascara does for your lashes what stilettos do for your legs, instantly transforming them to their longest, most glamorous, and most seductive look ever! The innovative packaging of Long Extreme Stiletto is super chic, reminiscent of a sleek pair of designer heels, while its cutting-edge formula stretches lashes to the limits, giving you the longest lashes you’ve ever wanted. So get ready to bat those sinfully sexy lashes for a purse-friendly price of P349!
I'd Say...


         PROS:

    • Packaging:
                       The packaging is really so darn cute, chic and sexy! Need I say more? haha. My only teeny weeny gripe about the packaging is the handle..I just find it a bit too big for my liking but blah! who cares haha XD
    • Lengthening
                         Like what I've said earlier, Maybelline mascaras do deliver. And this mascara was no exception. In one coat, you can already see results, in two coats, they're perfect! :D I find that this formula suits Asian lashes(which are usually short and stick straight) and unlike other mascaras that performs better   when it's already a drier formula, this mascara is love from start til end.
    • Waterproof
                         Whenever I buy mascara, I always make sure it is waterproof or at least water resistant because I live in a humid area, plus, it keeps my lashes curled all day long :) But since this is a waterproof mascara, you have to use a makeup remover to remove it or else it'd stay and you'll wake up the next morning looking like a raccoon. In my case, I use my Lancome Bi-facil Eye Makeup Remover, which makes removing it an ease. But Maybelline also has their own makeup remover which I am yet to try ;)
    • Price
                         For P250-350, I can't argue. It is hands down the best drugstore mascara brand :)


             For the Cons, I cant really think of any. Hmmm..smells pretty much the same like other mascaras. Hmm..it did say it makes lashes shinier..didn't really notice that haha. But like what I usually say, who cares! Haha. If it were true it would've been just a plus. 


Here is a before and after photo of my eyes(sorry for the crappy editing..gotta work on that :P )


As you can see, it really does wonders for my lashes!

             If you want a mascara that is worth your money, I totally recommend Maybelline mascaras. By the way, I'm not sponsoring Maybelline, I'm just really a fan of their mascaras :P Hope this review was helpful :)
See y'all lovely people!
