I think you know how much I like coloured mascaras. Coloured Mascaras are a new way to add colours to eyes. Just a wand of colour and all eyes are on you. I have written about the coloured mascara from Colorbar. Today while I was looking for something, I found 3 sleek tubes of coloured mascaras lying at the back of my dresser. Thought let me introduce you to hidden stars of my my vanity, MUA Coloured Mascaras in Mint Green, Blue & Pink i.e. shade no 2,6 & 7.
MUA Coloured Mascaras are available in many shades like black, brown, green, pink, blue etc. They are all gorgeous shades. Full of colours. I have got three shades, but I always kind of want more of them. Maybe someday I will get all of them.
Price:
Retails at Rs. 700 for 5 ml, but available on Jabong.com for only some 200 bucks. (Great deal I guess)
Packaging:
Comes in a colour coded opaque tube with wand at the top. Travel Friendly. Does not leak.
Pigmentation & Consistency:
Among all the three shades I got, blue & pink are the most pigmented, while the green one does not pay off much colour wise. Texture is smooth. Goes on the lashes easily. The formula dries off quickly.
Staying Power:
The mascaras are water proof. The colour stays for good 4-5 hours. Sometimes the mascaras flake off if more than 2 swipes have been applied. Being water proof, it is very hard to remove at the end of the day. I go for an oil based makeup remover for my eyes.
MUA Coloured Mascara- Shade Description
Shade 2 – Minty Green:
I don’t think these shades have some name attached to them, so I will just address them by their colors. The green shade is dark mint green, which is a flattering colour to me. But it does not come on eyes as beautifully as it looks on the wand. I need to apply a lot of coats of this shade as compared to the others to bring on the colour. This should have been a neon colour.
Shade 6- Blue:
A very basic shade of a coloured mascara. It is similar to the Colorbar Starry Blue Mascara shade. I find this shade is less dramatic and intense than the one from Colorbar. Looks good on eyes. Will suit all skin tones and eye colours.
Shade 7- Hot Pink:
It is the most flirty & flattering colour among the three. The colour is really gorgeous. This shade pops up the eyes beautifully. I like it the most among the three shades. This shade lightens my mood.
Summary: 4/5
I find these coloured mascaras a good buy, especially if they are available on discount. They are not every day wear. If you want to bring up a fun girl within you, these bullets will do the job.
