MAYBELLINE HYPERCURL VOLUME EXPRESS MASCARA

Looking for incredible curls without the eyelash curler?Maybelline's Hypercurl Mascara promises
  • 3x the Volume instantly
  • 75 degree curl-Keeps curls for 18 hours
  • Waterproof /water washable variants
So does it deliver? Read on to find out more


The chubby black tube an chrome finish cap and the boldly emblazoned product name, instantly looks eye catching.The ingredient list comes printed on the plastic wrapper covering,with white print on transparent plastic,good luck trying to read the tiny font size.


The wand of Maybellier Hypercurl mascara is curved unlike the regular straight mascara wan,and this gives the lashes a curling effect
The texture of the product is slightly thicker than my other mascaras I have and this one gives a pretty clear lift and curl to my otherwise poker straight lashes.Now I didn't really measure whether my eyelashes were curled by 75 degree or 60 degrees?My guess is the curling is closer to 55 degrees (run off to find my Geometry box,LOL!!) :D
Though the slightly thicker texture means clumping of lashes (though the Clumpy lash look is in vogue this season!) The water proof variant that I picked stays put for 10 hours on my lashes and I had to spend good deal of time & remover to get it off.
So while I'm not 100% sure about Maybelline's claim of 18 hours of wear time, this one is surely very long lasting

Before-My lashes at thier droopy best, without any mascara on

After 2 coats of Hypercurl-I didn't use eye lash curler to give you an idea, how the mascara performs on its own.If you use a eyelash curler definitely the thicker texture of mascara ensures your curls stay intact for much longer than regular mascara.
(Sorry about the smudges, that was my doing, not really the mascara's fault!)

 9.2ml of this mascara costs INR 175/- that's an amazing 'Bang-for-your-buck'

Overall thoughts- For the price, its a great mascara,especially if you are looking for everyday use.Though I'm a tiny bit partial towards Colossal Mascara for the super dramatic lashes.But I'd repurchase this again.

  1. I have the yellow one both in water proof and non water proof. They are quite nice for the price they come in for. Try using Almond Oil for removing eye make up. It takes off the most stubborn mascaras with an ease without damaging the lashes and it conditions the lashes to help promote lash growth ^_^.

    I really want to try this one but there's so many other mascaras in the market for me to try too. Great review :).
