VTI Bazaar Exclusive Trove

Good afternoon, everyone! I'm back :)
It's not like i'm busy or something, i was just too lazy to write a post >.< *bricked*

So today i'm not gonna post a review or something, or maybe this is a half-review (?) post, but the thing is, i wanna share my exclusive trove from VTI. So around last August or September (and today is November *bows*) i received an email from VTI saying that i've won a Bazaar Beauty Award 2013 wishlist competition or something (i did put everything in my wishlist tho haha) and they asked for my address so they could send the Bazaar trove to my house :) Thank you, VTI :)



So they gave me:
1. Pond's Flawless White Deep Whitening Facial Foam
    Well actually i wasn't really hoping to get this because i can find it in any drugstore but 
     then again it's free ;) i've tried this and it's quite nice but i'm not a fan of whitening  
     products (cause my skin itself is already fair) so it's just something to clean my face. 
     Oh and it contains tiny scrubs, too, so far i'm using it everyday and nothing goes wrong 
     to my skin.
2. Maybelline The Magnum Volum' Express Waterproof
    This, i can also get this in any nearby drugstore, then again it's free ._. I haven't tried it 
     yet so i'm not saying anything about this.
3. Lancome UV Expert GN-Shield BB Base (2x10 ml)
    And then they gave me more BB Base ._. I already have it reviewed in my VTI  
    Lancome Box post so please just go there lol

Ok so i like this box, not only because it's free but at least they put useful products for me :) Have a nice day, bye! :)

Review: Maybelline Unstoppable Curly Extension Mascara

This is my first mascara ever. The packaging is cute, the pink color is good though (for me who is not a pink lover). It comes with slim brush with short bristle, and the handle is so right for me to put the mascara on.



I normally only apply a little so it doesn’t look like I’m wearing a mascara. Even my brother doesn’t notice it after I go out with him for awhile. He says the lashes just look better but don’t look fake.

bare --> curled ---> mascara. excuse my pores ugh.

It does lengthen my lashes, but I don’t know about it’s curling power because I always use a lash curler before I apply it. At least my lash stays at where the should be, or in short it didn’t make my lash look droopy. The staying power before it messes up is… I don’t really know. Yesterday i went out with my family and wore it from 6.30 AM to 11 PM and here's the result:

it looks like it's gone but the curl is still there. no smudge.


Much to my surprise, it doesn’t clump my lash, even without using lash comb. Or is it because I only apply a thin layer of it? I don’t know. It says that it is a waterproof mascara, but i haven't tried that part yet (doing such things like crying or swimming with this mascara on). It comes off easily with make up remover tho.

I notice that this mascara needs perfect timing when you want to wear it. when it's still new it's all wet and heavy and smudgy but when you have used it for three or four times, it's perfect. And i'm afraid it will not work if one day it dries out :s

Conclusion

Pros:
-it makes me look better but still look natural
-it lengthens my lashes
-It doesn’t clump
-easy to use

Cons:
-It lacks of volume (of course betch because It doesn’t say anything about volume! It’s not its fault then *sigh)
-you need to find the perfect timing to use it. ugh.

Will I repurchase? Um not now, there are so many mascaras out there, I still want to try out some ;) it is good but this one can wait :D
