Review: Yanquina Volumizer Mascara By yamismakeup

Hey Dolls,

I bring you another mascara review~ This time, it is the Yaquina Volumizer mascara from KKCenterhk.


Price and Availability
$19.80 at KKCenterhk

When it comes to mascara, I like the ones I can apply without any worries and that will also give me nice looking lashes. I don't usually wear false eyelashes out so I want a mascara that will give me very dark and long lashes lashes. Here is what I think of this mascara.

PROS:
~It has two different options for mascara: a natural look, and a bolder look.
~Step 1 (natural mascara) gives a very subtle,  no-makeup, look. This is great for very natural and minimal makeup.
~Step 2 gives really great black and volumized lashes. Perfect for dramatic looks
~I really love the mascara wand of Step 1. It is super easy to work with
~I don't get flaking during the day

CONS:
~Step 2 tends to get a lot of extra product on the brush, so I always have to wipe it off before I use it
~Step 2 tends to be very difficult to work with. I have to be extremely careful when I apply it or else I will get tons of mascara smudges on my lid (thus ruining my eye makeup)
~Step 2 always leaves some smudges when I apply it on my lower lashes.
~This is pretty pricey for a mascara (I tend to buy drugstore mascaras)

Here are some photos of me wearing this mascara:

NO MASCARA
 STEP 1~See I quite love Step 1!

STEP 2~ Notice all the mascara smudges though...except in one picture because I cleaned them up a bit.





Verdict
Step 1 is really great for super natural looks. I don't get smudging or flaking with that one. I also like step 2 because it gives me dark, volumized lashes, but I hate that it leaves smudges on my lid. If I use Step 2 I have to be super careful. That being said, I will continue to use this mascara and hopefully I can solve my smudging issues.

Rating? 6.5/10 
Recommend? Hmmm, this is not my favorite mascara and honestly I would not be super excited to recommend it to people. But if you are the type of person who loves to spend a little more time making your lashes look awesome, and you don't mind the price then I would recommend it. I love the fact that it has two options for you to choose from.
Repurchase? No. I don't think this was the best mascara for me, so I would not buy it with my own money. That and the fact that I don't ever spend more than $9 on mascara ;D

Thank you all for reading~ Stay awesome!
