Product Review: Céleteque's 24-Volumizer Mascara

I used to think applying mascara is something I can skip in my makeup routine, having naturally long lashes. I have tried several different mascaras, and I thought they didn't really make a lot of difference on me. And after I noticed my lashes becoming thinner and more brittle, I decided to just stop using them. Until I tried Céleteque's 24-Hour Volumizer Mascara (Php645, 6.5g).

This mascara has Acrylates Copolymer  which prevents clumping and smudging, Aloe Barbadensis that has anti-bacterial properties, Beeswax and Canuba Wax to make lashes look fuller and volumized, and Hydrogenated Palm Oil to nourish lashes. I was so happy BDJ decided to include this in their box because I would have never bought and tried this on my own! I wasn't really expecting a lot from this mascara but boy, oh boy... 😊

My lashes instantly became blacker! And eventhough it says it's volumizing I still see how it lenghtened my lashes!

                              Before application

I used the long wand for the first coat and then for the second coat, I twisted the cap to make the wand shorter and the bristles more compact to get really close and coat my shorter lashes to volumize them.

8 hours after application (two coats)

My lashes went from this, to this in a couple of minutes. Amazing!

The left picture shows bare lashes. The right one shows lashes with Céleteque's 24-Hour Volumizer Mascara (one coat).

I liked how it didn't make my lashes feel stiff and heavy. I also didn't have a hard time washing them off at the end of the day eventhough it says it's waterproof. It did smudge and flake a little after several hours as seen on the photo below. 

Also, if you're not a fan of wet formulas, this may not be for you. But since it did promise to nourish my lashes in time, hopefully that means it will strenghten them or at least won't make them brittle. From now on, I will definitely make room for this mascara in my makeup routine.
