Yes, there IS a boobie shot in here. 8D
But first, Define-A-Lash beckons me. I tried on this mascara during my JROTC uniform day on purpose, to test the durability.
I used the waterproof one, and applied three coats. As you can see, it shows up pretty well and doesn't clump much, so when you go through with a comb, it's perfectly smooth and polished. I use 3 coats of this mascara every time I have to wear my uniform to school, because there are Army regulations about makeup that I have to strictly follow. One of them is that you must look natural and not like a slut. XD (They've got nail polish regulations too...and hair color, and highlight, and hair tie color, and lipstick regulations as well. It's a bit much, but I've got to follow if I dun wanna be fired. o.o)
3 coats of Define-A-Lash hits the spot then, because it turns up looking natural but still with a definite ”oomph”. Additionally, it holds a curl pretty well.
I took this picture after 10 hours of wearing it.
PROS:
1. Natural-looking, very buildable
2. Clumps VERY little
3. Very minimal smudging - you might need to wipe your undereye after 8 hours, depending on eye shape.
4.
Stayed put through an hour of marching and shouting at the confused freshmen cadets who can't do rear turns at all, in humid 82 degree weather. THAT is good mascara there.
5. A good price for the quality
CONS:
1. Although the curl is pretty good, if you don't have time to laboriously heat your curler, carefully curl every bit of your lash, and then re-curl, there will be some wilting.
2. It's a pain in the butt to remove sometimes. Which can be a good thing, of course.
Lengthening:4/5
Volumizing: 3/5
Curl: 4/5
Smudging: 4.5/5
Price: 5/5
This mascara is A-okay for marching days!
I am now afraid one of my commanders will find this picture and whip me for saluting with the wrong arm. ((But I couldn't take the pic otherwise. =P)) If you are my commander and reading this, I beg you to have the mercy to NOT use the bamboo cane. 8D
In my opinion, Define-A-Lash is best applied not in the normal way, but rather BEHIND the lashes for optimal lengthening and curl holding. Try that, girls! =]
Boobie shot of all my chest bling:
I've been promoted to a Second Lieutenant from last year. =] So now I get to make the cadets do pushups, haha! They are not safe from my abuse of power~ 8DDD
And of course, a blog update:
