I remember one day I was seeing a review about this mascara on a UK blog and I thought like "Woah, nice... but I'll never buy it, the UK is too far away". But then the next month I was in Heathrow having one or two problems with my hand luggage (too many cosmetics) and while a very handsome English man was helping me out I heard a security guy telling a lady that she could get her medication from Boots just downstairs.
Now, if you have been to Heathrow many times or if you live in the UK that must be nothing exciting, but for me it was like going to Disneyland.
And you know the feeling you get when you go somewhere new and you like everything but can't choose anything. Then I remembered this mascara and for only £4 I picked it together with other things.
The Seventeen Doll'd Up mascara comes with a curved plastic wand that helps separate lashes very well. The formula is not too dry so it holds the lashes and allows you to apply more than two coats without clumps.
My lashes are as terrible as in the picture: short, thin, lighter than my natural hair color and this Doll'd Up provides lenght and volume without clumps. I love this as my everyday mascara and for special days I prefer using the YSL Babydoll mascara.
Have you heard about it? What's your favorite everyday mascara?

Un día estaba viendo una review de esta máscara en un blog de UK y tuve esa sensasión típica argentina de "Ay quiero, pero nunca la voy a conseguir". Lo que no sabía es que un par de meses después iba a estar en Heathrow teniendo algunos problemas con seguridad debido a mi equipaje de mano (demasiados cosméticos) y mientras un inglés (hermoso) me ayudaba, escuché a una señora del area de seguridad decirle a una pasajera que podía comprar su medicación en Boots, un piso abajo.
Para las que no saben, Boots es como un Farmacity británico y oh dios venden de todo. Me acuerdo que me empezaron a subir los latidos del corazón cuando entré! tenían de todo y a muy buenos precios! Ahí mismo recordé que quería probar esta máscara de pestañas y por 4 libras (unos 44 pesos) fue mía.
Esta máscara viene con una brochita de plástico curvada que separa muy bien las pestañas. La formula no es nada acuosa por lo cual sostiene la forma de las pestañas y permite poner mas de dos capas sin que se pegoteen. Como verán en las fotos mis pestañas son horribles: cortas, rectas y más claras que mi color de pelo natural y Doll'd up las alarga y da volumen. Me encanta como máscara de uso diario pero para ocasiones especiales prefiero usar la YSL Babydoll.
¿Cuál es su máscara preferida para todos los días?

Ohh I really must pick one of these up for myself the next time I need mascara, it looks amazing! <3

I absolutely love the brush! My holy grail mascara is the same shape but is a normal mascara brush!
ReplyDeleteQue lindas te las dejo! Ahora estoy tratando de gastar (no porque sea mala, sino porque no se termina más y me pone nerviosa!) una de Andrea Pellegrino.
ReplyDeleteBeso
What a great result! I have never heard about that mascara.

Es fabulosa! te re arquea las pestañas... me encantó.
ReplyDeleteBesotes Flo :)
I don't know why but my lashes can't handle
ReplyDeletemascara well, they go irrated and my eyes
gets swollen :c anyway!
Always nice that a handsome British man
helped you out ;)
Even though I don't do mascara, this one
sounds good for its price and the packaging
is not bad either! Xx
Aw that sucks, I don't know what i'd do without mascara... Maybe you should try the Borjois mascara for sensitive eyes.. it was nice :)
Deletecan we just appreciate the funky shape too. love you Flo!

que buena pinta tiene esta mascara de pestañas.
ReplyDeleteBesitos!
Florrrr..que mascara buena..pero compraría solo por el envase della...jajajja
ReplyDeletepero DIOS mio! Que intensidad da!!! Mis pestanas son muy testarudas tambien... no he conseguido un rimel que "holds the curl" .. sigo en la busqueda. Te queda precioso ese! Xo
ReplyDeleteTiene que ser alguno de fórmula medio seca, probaste el YSL babydoll o maxfactor false lash effect
DeleteThis mascara sounds and looks amazing! Haha the part where you compared Boots to Disneyland, I can totally relate... hopefully I get to experience that same feeling if ever I get to be in the UK! :) x

Wow! Your lashes look amazing girl! Ahaha, I can imagine myself going pretty crazy if I stumbled across a boots :)

I don't know why, but I always like seeing your lash "transformations" with mascara. Looks like a good mascara so far! I've been using Urban Decay's cannonball one for a while now, my current tube has lasted about 9 months and it's still going strong - it's not dry and it's not hard to work with either. Might seem gross, but if it still works I'm still using it :P
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you don't have Urban Decay at Sephora!! Is it like that all over Sweden?

Unfortunately we don't :( Seems that Urban Decay won't be sold in Sweden anymore :O
DeleteI love how dark your lashes look! I am loving the Maybelline Mega Plush right now for super natural, everyday lashes xx

this mascara looks amazing on you!! i can't get my hands on this here in hong kong, but will definitely remember to check it out next time i'm in the UK :) my favorite mascara is lancome hypnose drama - it's the only one that manages to hold a curl for me! a close second would be maybelline falsies mascara, which adds amazing length and definition

Wow that looks amazing!

Oh wow your lashes look amazing in the after picture! I've seen this so many times in Boots but never picked it up as the brush didn't appeal. I'd definite buy it now after seeing your lash photo!! Xx
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing change!
ReplyDeleteI love it. I never heard of this before.

I tried this a while ago and thought it was really good for the price! Especially considering I got it when it was on offer for £1.99 - crazy cheap!
