MY FAVORITE MASCARA OF ALL TIME…
has been discontinued!!!!
THE HORROR! KILL ME! WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME MAYBELLINE??????
Quick recap:
I am a mascara freak- can’t leave the house without it. My mom discovered this amazing little beauty product a few years back, and I was hooked. This baby gives you the best hold and the perfect length! They don’t sell it in Asia, so I decided to go on the mascara hunt when I went to Paris last year. Unfortunately, the closest thing I found was STAR STYLIST by Maybelline as well.
So i figured- Hey, the look the same, they must work the same, and I bought some to last me quite a while. They weren’t as great. They were a bit too wet for me, but they did the job. I was pretty satisfied. When my stash ran out, I was pretty desperate to find another one. But like I said, they don’t sell them in the Philippines. Again, the closest thing I found was VOLUME EXPRESS, which had the same comb applicator, but replaced the lengthening feature to volume.

Now, I really hate this product. I thought it would still do the trick, but I was very disappointed. The mascara is too heavy on my lashes, causing the curl to straighten. It’s very clumpy (maybe because it’s trying to achieve the volume effect) and it dries up fast. After a few months of torture, I finally decided to have someone buy my original favorite… but much to my disappointment… (and I’m sure to my mom’s as well when she finds out…)
IT’S BEEN DISCONTINUED!!!!!!!!!!! Gahh. The. worst. news. ever.
There are so many people complaining and signing petitions for Maybelline to bring it back. But I have to wonder, why did they discontinue a product that was doing so well? MAYBE it had some bad chemical in the mix, and they discontinued it in hopes that no one would find out.
That’s kind of scary. Nah, doubt it.
Anyone know where I can get some? Surplus stocks maybe?
