Marlyn Kragh recommends Magnum Volume Express Waterproof Mascara
“Maybelline Magnum Mascara” Volumized LASHES in just ONE COAT!
Creates 9x the VOLUME instantly!
Maybelline Volume' Express The Magnum Waterproof Mascara
This mascara that made it on my "great products list" is made specifically for Asian lashes. It is well formulated for our needs & definitely works for me!
Here are my reasons:
· locally available nationwide
· waterproof
· wand is good, it can separate each lashes
· dries fast
· doesn't weigh the lashes down
· feels barely-there
· no clumping, smudging, flaking
· gives great volume to the lashes
· long-wearing
· Lush with collagen
· NOTE: Doesn’t lengthen the lashes- who needs fake lengthening!
TIP:
Sweep brush from root to tip to plump lashes and achieve dramatic volume.
Do not let dry while applying in between coats.
Surely for the make-up experts, this huge yellow packaging is very similar
to the Colossal mascara released for USA.
Here are some comments from Maybelline Sales Person about the difference between the two mascaras “Colossal / USA & Magnum/ Philippines”
Maybelline speaks:
On your concern on the difference in names and packaging, we sometimes have to change either the formula or the pack for...different reasons.
Maybelline speaks:
We change the formula when the one in the US does not suit Asian needs
(ex. Magnum vs Colossal - Colossal gives volume to unruly lashes vs
Magnum gives volume to downward pointing lashes).
Maybelline speaks
Maybelline change the pack though the formula almost the same, but Collosal pack is so expensive that we would be forced to price it here at a very high amount. In these cases, we would rather put the product at an affordable price because we want every Filipina to use a good quality product with a reasonable pack.
Maybelline speaks
Maybelline of course have considered that there are many makeup lovers who really collect the amazing packaging so we are trying to bring in both types of products.
Our products are different from the US not just in the name but in the formula as well. :
Maybelline speaks
Our local formulas are developed by our laboratories specifically for Asian skin tones and climate. It's much hotter and more humid here than in the US, so if we use their formulas, our products won't be long-wearing and won't fit our local needs.
So there you are guys!
That's what Maybelline has to say about the never-ending comparison between the Magnum & Colossal packaging. MKragh
Now let’s talk more in depth… Magnum’s wand (Brush)
Magnum Brush – is amazing for easy application from root to tip.
It's just a bit curved that makes it easier to manage. Unlike traditional mascara wands, Magnum bristles are stiffer that combs the masscara into each lashes and it's very easy to do. I just love how it can really coat each lashes because of the resiliency of the bristles! It is even good in separating each lash! A matter of fact this is the first bristle wand that does the Great job, in my opinion.
Maybelline Magnum mascara texture- has the perfect consistency which enables to coat each lash without clumping it. It dries fast too! So far so good!
Performance
This is a typical Asian short--barely-noticeable lashes...
One coat of the Magnum will give you very natural-looking feathery lashes.
Two coats already give you that VOILA! Full-looking lashes in an instant!
Again, with the texture & consistency it is so perfect that it coats the lashes very easily. You don't need to swipe those lashes so many times just to see the effect. Volumized eyelashes can be done in few seconds!
It even retains the curl & doesn't feel heavy at all. Unlike those other mascaras that feel heavy that you flicker your eyes for a couple of seconds because it feels like something is sitting on your lashes? Well, this one isn't like that! It barely feels like you have any mascara at all!
Waterproof.
This mascara is great enough to withstand the rain and some tears!
Since this is waterproof mascara, it's not that easy to remove compare to non-waterproof (of course!). So you would need to have a good oil-based remover to completely get it off. But this is not THAT HARD to remove either. But this one can be taken off with just a simple remover. No sweat! Just let the remover sit on your lashes to give enough time to dissolve the mascara. (Note: check out on what’s great for removing mascaras especially “the know how” without much effort on this website)……….
As for the price, i'll leave it to you. I know that there are some out there willing to pay Php429/piece and some might find it expensive; but it is really worth every single cent! Anyway, I noticed that Maybelline has that regular "sale" period, so you might want to take advantage of it…watch for on our site on “ Whats New”,
visit us often for Discount coupons that we might give away.
So that’s about it. I am actually an avid fan of Maybelline Mascaras for the last 6 years… I alternate it with my Lancôme “Doll Eyes” mascara!
This mascara made it to my “favorite make-up products lists.” It is one of those products that you buy for keep.
It is something that you would want to use again and again because of its quality product performance…
CAPITAL Y-E-S I will buy this product again and again and surely will tell my friends, family and my Spa /Clinic clients about it especially its affordability in price. It is definitely a product worth your money can buy!
