When I first bought the Virtuose mascara when I was 16, it was seriously my favourite mascara, although it didn't really curl my eyelashes, it did make them super long! :D This is my mini review for this mascara :)
Claims:
> CurlGuard™ formula lengthens and holds a divine lash curve for 12 hours. > The KeepCurl™ brush provides an outstanding eyelash curler effect. > Long-lasting formula is virtually smudge-proof, tear-proof and easily removable.
(plain eyelashes without anything)
(with primer)
(with one coat of mascara)
It doesn't really look like it made much of a difference on the photos but I promise you it does in real life, that's just with ONE coat of mascara!
Pros:
- VERY lengthening
- Little to no clumping
- Lasts a long time on the eyelashes
- No flaking
- Easily removed
Cons:
-Not very volumizing
- Not super cheap for a mascara - it's $40 here for a tube
- Didn't do as promise, which is to keep curl and also the fact that it is tear proof, but then again, my eyelashes are always straight, it doesn't hold curl with any mascara or any eyelash curlers
- It dries out pretty quickly so if you want to layer your mascara, do it quick
=========================================
nice review!i can see that its really nice for lengthening purposes ^__^
ReplyDeleteyou're so sweet for replying to my comment and i totally appreciate it! :) but i have one stupid question haha.. you said you used smolder for you water line... what is that?? i totally love makeup, but definitely not makeup "savvy." haha thanks again! <3
ReplyDeleteDo waterproof mascaras hold your curl? Nonwaterproof ones are bad for stick-straight lashes in my experience...
ReplyDeleteI used two coats! I should have mentioned that in my post XD thanks for asking!
i like how natural looking it is. i like how it does not clump at all
ReplyDeleteLancome makes really nice mascaras, Virtuose is one of my faves :) Pretty photo by the way! :)
ReplyDeleteOhh this DOES look lenthening! Your lashes look amazing and so long!! And I love how it doesn't look clumpy (I can't stand clumpy mascara lol)
ReplyDeleteOhh and that last piccy of you is just gorgeous- you are just stunning :)

i have tried all lancome mascaras and this is probably my least fav. :( it does lengthen but doesnt give any volume (i love volume mascaras). the brush is abit prickly too and hurts my eye a little if it gets too close the waterline or tightline. also it dries up sooo fast i threw it out within 2-3 months? my ultimate fav from lancome is the hypnose mascara :)
ReplyDeleteI love mascaras :) I'm like a junkie.. I have mascaras from last spring I haven't opened yet! I'm trying to be wise and get them when it's on sale but wait until I'm finished with my other ones so they don't end up expired ^_^
ReplyDeleteWow! That mascara is no joke! Your lashes look great! I am really impressed by the lack of clumping. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteP. S. Work them stunna' shades, girl! Woot woot! LOL!
Funky glasses :D You look cool!
ReplyDeleteI have no nose for sunglasses! haha :) but great mascara review ^_^ I love to try different mascaras, lancome has always interested me but they don't carry lancome stand at my sephora so that's why I've never purchased it >_<
