[Beauty Review] Mary Quant Action Lashings Lengthening Mascara


I'm not really a makeup person but ever since I did my first eyelash extension back in December last year, now I understand why people couldn't live without makeup and what they mean by "naked face". The power of makeup (Y) Thanks to Manoah and Mary Quant, I can have my long and pretty lashes again! Introducing the Mary Quant Action Lashings Lengthening Mascara, which promises to lengthen your eyelashes delicately yet sharply, while protecting your lashes damaged by frequent uses of curlers and makeup with their waterproof effect.

Started in 1970s, Mary Quant Cosmetics was founded by a fashion designer, who is also known as "the inventor of the mini skirt" and the brand was actually named after her, Mary Quant. For her, cosmetics are part of fashion and she aims to "bring fashion to the face", a combination of makeup and fashion that expresses who you are. Even their brand symbol "the black daisy" which you can see on their packaging, it symbolize the freedom Mary Quant gave to women, and of the Mary Quant brand which continues to defy convention to create new forms of beauty.



"Everyone is copying my Stick and Crayons, but they can't copy my colours," said by Mary, and it's true that for many people Mary Quant is synonymous for colours. She also proposed the idea of "no-rules makeup" which means makeup to be enjoyed based on one's favourite colours and mood at the time. Their cosmetics just have a mysterious ability to complement any outfit, in any era.

Mary Quant Action Lashing Lengthening Mascara comes in 7 shades: 01 Ebony Black, 02 Barewire Grey, 03 Ivy Green, 04 Laurel Green, 05 Brighton Blue, 06 Bohemian Purple, 07 Lac Rose. And I've got mine in 05 Brighton Blue! Bright and daring colour, perfect for parties or raves? :P


Mary Quant's original two-sided coil and chip brush, which features short raised bristles on one side, and the oil gel formula that gives the mascara its elasticity, together create the sharp, spectacularly long lashes. "Anti-colour fading effects" and "waterproofing effects" have also been enhanced, enabling the maintenance of beautifully upward-curling eyelashes and thoroughly preventing smudging on the lower eyelid.




As the name suggests, the lengthening effect is superb where it lengthen my lashes immediately as you can see in the picture above. I always thought that this type of coloured mascaras are very hard to show on Asian's black and thin lashes but surprisingly the colour is very pigmented and long lasting. I really love the outcome as the brighton blue colour is very outstanding. On the other hand, this lengthening mascara is very easy to remove despite of its waterproof effect. (Y)

So what do you think of my brighton blue lashes? Mary Quant Action Lashings Lengthening Mascaras are priced at RM 109 each and Mary Quant cosmetics are currently available at The Muse by Watsons, Sunway Pyramid only. Cheerios!

  8. I know what you mean. A makeup artist one day told me that if you start with the right makeup you can't see you without it. And I can't go out now without my BB cream He was so right.
