Estee Lauder Sumptuous Waterproof in Black Review

Posted by Rica at 11:44 PM
What this mascara claims from the Estee Lauder website:

"At last a waterproof mascara that gives you gorgeous lashes just the way you love them. Full, curled, sexy. And virtually indestructible. Now lashes look beautiful in all wet conditions, from steamy humidity to a splash in the pool.
Why save it for a rainy day?"

MAXIMUM WATERPROOFING
Get maximum waterproofing against all wet conditions:
  • Water
  • Chlorinated water
  • Saltwater
  • Tears
  • Perspiration
  • Humidity
  • Rain
  • Snow
THE FORMULA
  • Bold Volume™ Waterproof formula provides all the benefits of original Sumptuous-weightless volume, lift and curl-plus advanced total waterproofing.
  • Ultra light, lash-thickening fibers plump even the most sparse lashes.
  • Lashes are soft and flexible, never brittle or spiky.
THE BRUSH
  • Exclusive BrushComber™ thickens like a brush. Defines and separates like a comb.
MY EXPERIENCE:

Formula: The formula for the waterproof is very different from the original one. The original is quite wet, but this is dry. It flakes once it dried and set, and it scattered around my eyes for my one whole day of usage. Too bad for me.

Brush: The brush is a medium size (just enough) brush unlike the Sumptuous Extreme which is extremely huge. LOL. I find this brush actually quite easy to use, I can reach through it at the very tip and ends of my lashes.

Packaging: The packaging is very normal, quite disappointing with a High-End brand like Estee Lauder. It is a shiny blue (gold for the non-waterproof), plain, no design at all.

My opinion:
Okay, I must say, this is your average volumizing mascara. But not great though. I am currently using Estee Lauder's Sumptuous Waterproof and I must say, I love the original (non-waterproof) version more than the waterproof. Why? Well, one thing that makes me say, "Oh! I don't like this!" is that it flakes like hell. Oh yes, even from the very moment you put it, let it dry and set, it flakes! Your liquidy like mascara turns into dry black flakes that scatters around your eye area and for my case, it went inside my eye and I had troubles taking it out. Good thing I was not in the hurry. I am obviously not in love with this mascara and will NEVER re-purchase this again.
