Illamasqua Masquara Raven Review

September 9, 2011 By: Bhumika

Illamasqua Masquara Raven Review

What the Company claims: If the eyes are the windows of the soul, our new Masquara in Raven (midnight black) reveals a heart of darkness with a new formula that lengthens, defines and dramatises lashes to extremes.

The happy union of our unique brush design and new smudge proof formula ensures lashes can last the whole night through.

Tips
Apply our new Masquara using the specially designed brush provided. Start the application from the bottom of the lashes moving upwards and outwards. Re-apply for a bolder look. For a dramatic effect, swirl the brush in the palm of your hand, pick up the product with an eye-brow brush and apply on the lashes starting from the bottom of the lashes sweeping upwards.

Illamasqua Masquara Raven Review

It has the sleek long packaging and has 10 ml product which would last quite long. The brush is huge and perfect for lengthening effect as claimed. The formula is nice..not too thick..and so it does not clumps lashes too. It gives those long fluttery dark lashes which I guess most of us love..dont we..

See the lengthening

Pros:

1. Huge brush..perfect for length.
2. Not too thick or gooey types.
3. Does not clump lashes much.
4. Even one coat gives enough length.
5. Jet black.
6. Its not waterproof but it still does not smudge in humidity..thats like damn nice.
7. Comes off easily with any normal cleanser.
8. Enough qty.

Cons:

1. This would not give you volume, if you prefer that.
2. Expensive for a mascara.
3. Available only at Illamasqua store or from their online shop.

Overall I loved the fluttering long dark lashes it gives…and its ease of use.

Rating:

Quality: 5/5
Value for money: 4/5
Availability: 3/5

Overall Rating: 4/5

Would I buy it again: I would love to..
