Mascara from Eyeko Lush Alert.

Mascara is always available in my cosmetics bag.


In search of ideal ink, I acquired a set of miniatures from the English Eyeko brand which specializes in production of cosmetics for eyes. In Europe it is quite famous and is highly appreciated from a byyuta of bloggers.


My review is devoted to the first of three is Lush Alert.

This ink is considered day, morning. It increases not only length of eyelashes, but visually increases eyes. When in the morning we hardly wake up and eyes cannot open in any way, this ink "opens" them. Approximately such description is given by the producer for buyers.
And that the most interesting, is an honest truth!
Ink twists eyelashes upward without other devices (nippers) and the whole day raised holds them, doing a look open.
Ink quickly stiffens on eyelashes and is suitable for an instant make-up when the woman hurries.
The bottle very unusual is a soft tube. The brush is quite strange: a hook with short pile. When I for the first time opened it, did not believe that I will be able to make up it eyelashes!
And nevertheless, I could. And the result pleasantly surprised me.
Reverse side of a tube. Short information on the main ingredients of structure and the producer was located on it.
One more surprise: ink is manufactured in South Korea.
Composition of ink. It is huge! And quite in the Korean style: the main ingredients quite standard, as at any formula of ink. Different thickeners, wax, oils... Preservative phenoxyethanol. It is always 1% in structures of any means. And further the long list of everything begins that there is added! Extracts of plants! Continuous exotic. Only it is unclear what they do in mascara?... Well and it is fine. The producer called ink looking after eyelashes.
And main ukhodovy ingredients 3:
Caffeine, arginin and biotinoyl tripeptide-1.
I will tell a couple of words about the last.
This peptide is added to hair care products. According to experiences in a test tube and on 30 volunteers, substance in concentration of 2% is capable to influence strengthening and growth of hair and eyelashes positively.
There is its less than 1%. But I not against its use, in principle. Even I am glad that ink to some extent cares for my eyelashes.
However, I do not wait for strengthening and growth. It is decorative cosmetics!
That to me it is important - it is absence of an allergy to formula components, her firmness on eyelashes, without lumps, spots on skin a century, falls.
To requirements ink copes with these perfectly well.
Does not cause allergies though I have sensitive eyes and not each ink to them approaches. Keeps from morning to night, I will not wash away from eyelashes yet.
I happened to cry recently few times... Not strongly. But tears flowed. Ink sustained and was not washed away, did not react at all.
In the rain did not test it.
That admires me in this formula - it is lack of an otpechatvaniye of ink from tips of eyelashes on eyelids! I had no such ink yet.
I always never paint only the ends of eyelashes, from roots. And only in 1 layer. Otherwise any ink begins to irritate, disturb in the eyes, I begin to feel it how that - that others.
With this ink I can put also 2 layers. And it till the evening does not disturb me.
From minuses - if I paint too quickly, it can stick together eyelashes. Therefore, kind of I hurried, I make up eyelashes carefully, raising the ends.


On a photo ink in 1 layer. Day, not striking make-up. In the afternoon the main thing naturalness not to look vulgar.
NYX shadows, Cien pencil, balm L'OCCITAN, colourless for lips, the CC cream from Frezyderm and Physician formula SPF 30 powder are used.

Ink by easily any means - micellar water or usual gel for washing is washed away. Does not leave stains under eyes, leaves lumps.
About the price - I consider that I was lucky to buy 3 bottles of different ink at once (in a package there was this, then waterproof and evening) at a discount 50%. It is a great way to try means and to solve whether they suit me.
Now I see that this ink suited me also I not against purchase of the full-size.
But frankly speaking, I prefer versions on 4 ml. It is more convenient! It is not necessary to worry about expiration dates.

Here again the same ink, but I test other palette of shadows.

Thanks for attention!
