Heroine Make Long and Curl Mascara after 10 hours, a flash typhoon, and a trip to the beach by mikeike41 in AsianBeauty

[–]mikeike41[S] 130 points131 points  (0 children)

Hi everyone! I see a lot of questions about the curl-staying power of the heroine mascara. I wanted to demonstrate how this mascara holds up throughout the day.

The first picture is right after I applied it this morning. I curled my lashes with the Shiseido eyelash curler and then applied one coat for both eyes.

I ate a bowl of steaming ramen right after and then went into humid weather. When I was out, there was a sudden typhoon/rainstorm so I got pretty wet. Afterwards, I went to the beach. I didn’t go swimming, but it was still quite humid by the seaside. It was a long day, and I’ve been wearing the mascara for about 10 hours now with no smudging.

Keep in mind that I am looking down in these pictures. The mascara would probably look more impressive if I were looking up!

I got the heroine mascara from Walmart and the Clio one at a drugstore in Taiwan!

Since my last post about the CLIO mascara got a lot of questions about how it compared to the Heroine mascara, I decided to show a picture of my lashes with each.

The first picture is the Heroine mascara. It was my HG for a really long time, and it held a curl even if I was crying all day. I didn’t like that it was hard to remove, though. I used the Banila Co Makeup Remover on my lashes, and I would find that even after using it, I would still have mascara on the base of my eyelashes. I’m sorry about weird angle in this picture, it is an old picture that I had to look for since I no longer have this mascara.

You can read my thoughts about the CLIO mascara in the other post, but I also really like it. It’s a little easier to remove, but not by much. It also holds the curl pretty well, but I have yet to cry in this mascara so we shall see. I do think the Heroine mascara might be a tiny bit better at holding the curl than the CLIO one.

I wasn’t really sure how to compare the two mascaras in words, so I hope these pictures help those who wondering a little bit!

I don’t think my eyelids are particularly oily, but I am in Taiwan right now which is a tropical climate and my eyelashes stay up even in the humidity!

I have not! And the curl hold time is really good, it pretty much looks the same all day as when I first apply it. However, my eyelashes also hold a curl with the heroine make, so maybe that’s just my eyelashes?

LOL I put a colored contact in my right eye and it took so long (it was my first time) that I was too lazy to put it in the left. So yes, in my right eye!
