AMW Reviews: K-Palette 1Day Magic Fiber Mascara


Fiber mascaras?
I used to long for them years ago when they weren't available in the local market.  I literally hunt them on Ebay because I think Fiber mascaras are the only solution to my non-existent lashes.

Fast forward to today, I'm glad Fiber mascaras are made readily available without me having to pay for shipping fees and wait for months!  K-palette came up with their Magic Fiber Mascara from the 1Day Magic series. 

After months of trying, I'm ready to share my thoughts on this!  Feel free to comment below if you have any questions or if you tried this yourself!  Share to me how it worked for you!


 Double ended mascara tube.
Black side for Mascara in black.  White side for white fibers.

Pros
  • You get 2 products in 1.
  • Packaging.
  • Waterproof, smudge-proof and smear-proof.
  • Holds the curl.  Does not weigh down my lashes.
  • The fiber does help "lengthen" my lashes.
  • Easy to remove with regular eye makeup remover.

Cons
  • If not applied carefully, the fibers can hurt your eye!
  • Some of the fibers can transfer to the black mascara wand thus making the effect "clumpy".
Neutral
  • Price.
  • You need practice to get the right technique to make this work.  Though some can breeze through the application!  
  • If you are aiming for "wet mascaras" this isn't for you, but personally, I do not mind the "almost dry" texture of this mascara as it feels lightweight making the curl of my lashes stay longer.
Overall
Helps in keeping the curl of the lashes for the whole day, plus it lengthens even the super non-existent lashes! 

Tips

  • Always curl your lashes before mascara application.
  • Apply using the mascara side on curled eyelash.
  • Apply the fiber.
  • Re-apply mascara to build volume and length.
  • Always look down on both application to keep the fibers from getting in your eyes.
  • Always start application from the roots to the tips with a zigzag motion.
  • Reapply fiber as many times as you want to build volume.
  • If you are the type who prefers "wet" mascara, feel free to pair the fiber with your favorite black mascara even from different brand!  You will be surprised how wonderful it'll work!  My favorite combination is this fiber mascara and  K-Palette 1Day Lash Perm Volume Curl Mascara.
  • Once the fiber gets into your eye, don't fret!  Just keep your eyes close for a couple of seconds making it "wet" with tears for the fiber to naturally leave the eye.  Feel free to use wet cotton bud to remove excess fibers.
Will I repurchase?
No.  Personally speaking, I prefer K-Palette 1Day Lash Perm Volume Curl Mascara and my favorite and to-go-to mascara Fairydrops Platinum Mascara Film Type Water Resistant.  This mascara ain't bad, the other variant just works much better on my lashes.

To whom do I recommend this to?
Users who prefer to Lenghten their lashes.

Where to purchase and how much?
Priced at Php895.00 (approx $23.30).  Available at Beauty Bar and Rustan's The Beauty Source (Makati and Shangri-la)

A closer look on the Fibers and Black mascara
The want for the Fibers is straight while the black mascara wand is curved.

 For visual: 
 I applied fibers on naked lashes just to show you how they look like.  
They look just like real lash hairs but in grayish tint.
 

 Before and After:
I did the Mascara + Fiber + Mascara application and here are the results.

Front view, my lashes look extremely longer and a tad bit fuller!  Not as volumize as I wanted it but not bad for day time look.


As you can see, the length of some of the lash hairs are almost doubled!

Side View:
The curl stayed that way until removal!  I love how lightweight the mascara is and it looks very natural (like I'm not wearing mascara at all!)

Have you tried fiber mascaras?
how do you like the results of 1Day Magic Fiber Mascara on my lashes?

Have a wonderful day!
