Lancôme Hypnôse Star Mascara in Noir Midnight
Featuring Betty Boop and Daria
Werbowy, this mascara offers the new versitale triangular shape of brush for
better lengthening and separating lashes and fixing them in a sensual curl. It
promises a new formula and new intense colour. Bla, bla. Yes, I never quite
believe in what the adverts has to say about mascaras because they all say the
same things, which half of them are not quite true in real life after all. I
picked Lancôme Hypnose Star Mascara only due to the fact that I owned Hypnose
Doll Eyes to be precise before and I really, really liked it. So I expected the
same things from this one, if not more.
The plastic black case is quite
elegant and curvy with Lancôme logo on the top part of the tube. On the bottom
of the tube you see little sparkly diamonds printed on the packaging. Very
pretty! But as the old saying says… don't judge a book by its cover, haha.

Lancôme Hypnose Star is easy to
apply; although it does have quite a big brush thanks to its shape it is easy
to apply to all lashes (even the little ones hidden in the corners of our eyes).
It coated all my lashes with one swipe, which is impressive considering I have
very thin and short lashes (one would say I have not even got any). For my
complete satisfaction I applied two coats. And because my eyelashes are the way
they are the mascara did lengthen and volumised them. The shade is a very deep
black I guess people with fair skin or light hair may find it more suitable for
a night-time look but I think it gives that extra dimension and wow factor to
the lashes.

The formula is thick but it
does not clump your eyelashes and it dries in a reasonable time (yes we are
talking about that time in the morning when you actually do not have that time)
so thumbs up for this one as it does not leave you with panda eyes like some of
the other mascaras do. It does not flake nor it does smudge (again, thumbs up).

Finally, it is really easy to
remove. Tried and tested to remove it even with cheap stuff (not to mention how
easy it comes off with the Lancôme eye makeup remover)
Overall, do I recommend it? I
think so although I do not think I am not going to re-purchase this mascara in
the near future… A.
I tried the sample of this and quite liked it, although just slightly clumpy for me. How does it compare for Doll eyes? Howcome you wouldn't repurchase it?
ReplyDeleteGreat blog by the way!

I am simply not going to repurchase it because Doll Eyes I had previously worked better for me. The reason behind it is that Doll Eyes separated the lashes slightly better, opened up my eyes a bit more and the brush (although very similar to Hypnose Star) was easier to use but generally speaking they are both quite similar in terms of performance and looks.
