The packaging of this mascara is very pretty and fun in my opinion. It`s a bright colbalt blue which makes it easy to find if like me you own a lot of other mascara (all which seem to be either black or silver). The wand is quite big and made of rubber. It is a bit tricky to get the hang of using the wand at first but it`s not so big that you easily end up getting mascara on your brow bone.
At first the formula of this mascara is very liquidy but it thickens up after around a week. I did like the results of this mascara on the first try but I love it even more now that the mascara has dried out a bit. Two coats of mascara makes my lashes look very thick and it holds the curl until I wash off my makeup at night. The shade is extremely black which I also love. Even though I`m light haired and pale I think black lashes look prettier than my natural brown ones.
I have sensitive eyes and wear contact lenses and my gripe with Maybelline mascaras I`ve tried in the past was that they flake throughout the day. The Rocket mascara doesn`t flake nor does it cause any irritation on my eyes. I`ve been wearing it often for the past month so I can safely recommend it to anyone else who suffers from sensitive eyes.
If you love the look of bold eyelashes I definately recommend checking Maybelline The Rocket mascara out!
Wow, your lashes look great with this mascara!
ReplyDeleteyour lashes look great! I've disliked all the maybelline mascaras i've tried in the past... I find them too wet and too flaky (like you've said!). I've heard lots of good things about the rocket, so it'll be next on my list of Mascaras to try!
ReplyDeleteThis totally makes your lashes look volumised yet defined without looking 'spidery' haha! I love using Maybelline's 'The Falsies' at the moment - it's pretty good!

I will have to give this one a try after I finish a few. It looks as though I'm guilty of hoarding mascaras... on a side note, I am SUPER jealous of your gorgeous brows!
ReplyDeleteOoh I like it! I don't think I could ever stray away from my trusty voluminous though haha xx
ReplyDeleteThis mascara makes your lashes look great! Thick but not clumpy!
ReplyDeleteyour lashes look so pretty! I have tried Falsies and Big Eyes from Maybelline and quite impressed. Will have to check this one out.

i've tried this mascara after seeing all the hype behind it, as it turned out i was extremely disappointed with it. I felt like it didnt really do much for my lashes, it didnt separate them or give them length. It left them looking very blah. Glad it worked out for you though!
