Mascara with Fibers from Bornprettystore
Hello Everyone!
Few days ago, I received this
interesting product from Bornprettystore.com. It’s a dual mascara set where in
you get a transplanting gel (yup !! that’s what they claim and call it) and a
other bottle has some fibres that can accentuate your lashes buy making them
longer and thicker...
Well!! The whole idea involved is pretty simple. The fibers are going to stick to your lashes followed by further coats of transplanting gel; they kind of make your lashes look longer and thicker.
Packaging: These
bottles are packaged in a dark navy Blue color which indeed looks decently
beautiful.
The smaller bottle contains white colored thin fibers. I guess they
are nylon fibers. Though I have no idea what are material of fibers are!! Anyways..The
bristles are arranged spirally on the wand, making it look like the regular
spoolies that we often get in the makeup brush set.
The longer bottle, is the so called transplanting gel which I assume, is the regular mascara with the sole purpose of covering the fibres and simultaneously serving like a regular mascara.
The wand has straight stylus with tiny holes out of which couple of plastic
bristles protrudes. This arrangement not only helps separating the lashes but
gets rid of the extra fibers too.
Now that I have used it. I have
sufficient experience with this product to share and how it fared after that of
course!!
How to use: I
am using such a product for the first time. Though few days back I have read a
very nicely written review about a mascara that has a primer which is supposed
to be used before the actual product. Fair enough!
It does come with all the instruction
and step by step pictorial to show
how to use it but since the language is alien to me or rather us. It’s of no
use. (Pictorial is hard to understand without the written part).
Then I realized that the fibers are
dry so they will definitely need a base
to stick then followed by another coat of that gel to cover and separate them
giving them the lashes a more finished look!
And magic! It worked.lol.. but it’s
also mentioned on the product page too.. Which I ignored earlier!! :D
Experience: The
transplanting gel is the regular
mascara which we have to use first to make the lashes a bit moist I should say.
There comes the role of the fiber bottle. I just used 2 coats or swipes of the
fiber and you can see in the picture my lashes are coated with a lot of them
just like the snowflakes over the pine tree.:) while doing that some of the
fibers were over my contacts. :(
Trust me this was the reason for
which I was quite skeptical about using this product with lenses on and it was
scary but still I wanted to try this interesting product.
I must highlight this that even after
using this my eyes were not red, which happens even with some eye shadows!!! thankfully there was no such thing.
After that I used the gel again to
cover and tame down the messy fibers.
When I end up applying 2 coats (more
coats could have ruined and clumped the effect) I noticed My lashes were
slightly longer but more thicker.
So yes, Agreed!! It gave falsies like
look. But then there were some fibers still sticking out with some clumping. You can see all that in the pictures below:
Other than that there was no irritation or red eye as I said and safe so far.
All this makes me conclude that I personally don’t see myself using it frequently. May be some time, but totally depends on mood. But, it may prove to be a helpful product for those who have sparse, thin lashes. Still, I will not recommend it to use daily. Using it occasionally is perfectly fine.
I am skipping the pros and cons in
general as I explained hopefully everything above and the pictorial may be
helpful too.

My take: If
you have thin and sparse lashes and are looking for a product that can help
giving that effect to your lashes then you may consider it. For me, it's an occasional products!!

PR sample though review is unbiased
as always!
This looks artificial but yeah can be used once in a while! Good review Nieshu:)
ReplyDeleteExactly Megha, thats why i do not think I will be using it much.. but not that bad product though may be helpful for someone!
Delete:)
It looks interesting niesha...I have sensitive eyes..I am scared a bit using diff things for eyes...bt ur review is very helpful......love it
ReplyDeleteI have too Preethi.. which is why I wont be using it regularly.. but interesting it is!! thank you dear!
Deletethis is a NO NO for me although the concept is interesting :D nice and honest review Niesha :)
ReplyDeleteThank you and I understand Natasha .:) not even me!!
Deletenice review niesh ..:) applying that fibers on to lashes is the one thing that i'm scared of :( bcoz, i have very sensitive eyes !!
ReplyDeletehe he.. same here priya. I too have sensitive eyes and being a contact lens user I do avoid such things but loved trying it.. :)
DeleteThe concept is quite interesting and you have explained with every possible detail and pics. I think most ppl will skip it for obvious reasons. But won't a 2step mascara will transparent gel base coat and regular mascara top coat give the same thickening effect i wonder.
ReplyDeleteThank you and Absolutely Gagan. I am with you, most people will! I might use it occasionally as I am more into hassle free products. :)
DeleteYes that can work too but honestly, the same thickening effect can be achieved by Maybelline mascaras.
Yes I agree. Most ppl love maybelline mascaras. But I am still smiling at ur description of fibres as snow on pine trees and the innovative mind behind this product :)
Deletehe he.. My brother was laughing at that pic too and me three.:)
DeleteNice review niesha n well written. .me would love to try this as mine is very thin lashes. ..its really interesting product..:):)
ReplyDeleteThank you Tej .:)
DeleteYou are right it is and I liked using it but may not be using it much for obvious reasons. :D
OMG Niesha..the fibers do look scary and on contacts..but still the end result is nice..It is agreat product for once in while use..
ReplyDeletehe he .. I could not agree more Prachi.. play with this once a while and then keep it and lock it!! lol..
DeleteGreat review Niesha....the conceop is really nice and would work for sparse lashes...though I am scared of that white fibre peeping through and the clumpy effect :|
ReplyDeleteThank you Pooja.. most of us are already blessed with good fluterry eye lashes but those who really want, may try.. I used it more for the sake of curiosity! :) else not a fan of such lashes.:/
DeleteWowie! I've seen one from too faced I think that does the same but the fibers still show when girls comb it through really well and apply the mascara on top! I think it's not the best like that, better to get a fiber mascara that has the fiber in it and its black! Thanks for reviewing, I've heard bits about that brand before!
ReplyDeleteIs it!! This brand was totally new to me but Even I think a fibrous mascara with black fibers would have been better. This way may be clumping could have been under check and also the fibers sticking out.
DeleteThanks for info Sharlynn. :D
it really builds up the lashes....but is it good for your lashes ?
ReplyDeleteEarlier I was thinking it may not be suitable but I didn't have any red eye while I was with these on. and the fibers are like feather soft. so as per my understanding they should not have any side effects as such.. but due to the clumping and hassle I may not be using it quite often .:)
Deletehey this product is pretty nice, worth a try i guess
ReplyDeleteIntersting idea I will say Swarnali and if some one wants to try a product like this then why not.. pretty decent :)
DeleteThat is so interesting. Such long fibres
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Gogs.. it is .:)
Deletenice review Niesha...the fibers looks scary though lol :P
ReplyDeleteInteresting product though the concept is great and it is very affordable.
Thank you Vishy.:)
DeleteThe fibers looks scary in the pictures but in fact they are very soft. Even i was reluctant earlier..lol :)
Nice to know about them Niesha:) and nice pics..
ReplyDeleteThank you Tanmayee.. :)
DeleteIt's an interesting product Niesha, nice review :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Neha, it was very interesting to use and little scary too.:)
DeleteI can see this mascara isn't the best.
ReplyDeleteNice review!
Yup, it indeed not.. .:)
Deletei liked the outcome though the fiber are still visible...
ReplyDeleteu have got beautiful eye niesha!!!!!

I agree Ritika, even after the last coat the fibers are sticking out which for sure doesn't give it a polished look.
DeleteThank you for that compliment, I can say that for you too..just saw your pretty pics on the blog!
