REVIEWS: Physicians Formula: Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Mascara Duos for Green Eyes and Hazle Eyes

By Saturday, March 13, 2010 , ,

The longest name ever for a product? Might just be. Physicians Formula: Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Mascara Duos for Green Eyes and Physicians Formula: Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Mascara Duos for Brown Eyes are two new mascaras in the Physicians Formula:Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing line.
The line in general is the concept of buying makeup to complement your eye colour and making it simpler. Liners, Eyeshadow palettes and mascaras complete the collection in colours that are 'high impact' and customizable. I find the colours all seem to match the colour of the eyes, which I find uncomplementary, but that is just my opion.

First off the mascaras have two ends, a larger end with a black mascara and a smaller end with the coloured mascara. I bought Physicians Formula: Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Mascara Duos for Green Eyes and Physicians Formula: Shimmer Strips Custom Eye Enhancing Mascara Duos for Hazle Eyes. The green eyed version has a bright green on the one end and the Hazle Eyes has a purple on the shorter end.
The packaging says that you can wear just one of the mascaras or layer them for more looks.
The black mascara has a large plastic wand that is sort of clumsy and difficult to use on the inner lashes. While the coloured end has a more modest sized plastic wand. The black mascara is nice and my only critique on it would be the wand and the back that there is so much more of the black than the coloured end.
I have been looking for a bold true coloured mascara since last spring when Red Earth pulled out of Canada. I tried Sephora and Almay, I started to become disgruntled and gave up all hope. I considered spending a fortune on Urban Decay or Benefit, but just didn't like their colours, and then it happened, I found this mascara. I am in love with how great the colours turn up.
The green looks GREEN! the purple dries PURPLE!
If you have been searching for a nice bold true coloured mascara, I recommend you check out these mascaras.
