Japanese drugstore mascaras are simply amazing, they outperform most of the high end mascaras I have used (and trust me I have had my fair share of all the expensive mascaras) at a fraction of the price. The highlight of my recent trip to Asia was that I was able to get all the Japanese drugstore mascaras on my wish list. Some of them were really hard to find but devotion conquers all ![]()
A snap shot of all the mascaras I bought *blushing* – some are my staples and some are new to me.
I have previously mentioned that the Heroine Make Kiss Me Volume and Curl is my absolute holy grail mascara. They have recently introduced a new version of it called Heroine Make Impact Frame and Curl Mascara and is supposed to be even better. Is it possible?
Majolica mascaras have become my staples since I started wearing them, people always ask me ‘are my lashes real?’.
Kate Mascara Base lifts my dead straight lashes up to the air! I am already up to my 3rd tube.
Brow Lash Ex Mascara by Sony CP - I was determined to get this mascara at all cost since my favorite youtube guru and blogger beautyQQ raves about it. It took me days to find it and I know I paid too much for it.
Sasatinnie Super Dolly Powerful Mascara – I wasn’t planning to buy this, but I gave in after I was told by the shop girl this is best selling mascara in Sasa and I was blown away by the dramatic effect after I tried the tester.
Fairy Drops Volumising Mascara – All the good reviews amongst the Asian beauty bloggers have me really wanting to try this out! I just started using it recently, review is coming up this week.
FYI I paid less than AUD $10 for the above mascara,s except for the brow lash Ex.

One of the things on my list when I get back to Los Angeles is the Kiss Me Heroine Mascara. I’ve also heard great things about the eyeliner. I’m getting tired of Covergirl Lash Blast and other drugstore mascaras…
It is the best for asian lashes isn’t it
I have tried kiss me eyeliner..I didn’t like it..I much prefer the dollywink eyeliner.
So interested in trying majolica. It’s by shiseido
Yeh..they are the best! But very very hard to get them removed..
I love Japanese mascaras too! I used to buy the pink Fairydrops from Sasa but they don’t seem to stock it anymore. Where did you get that one? (I’m from Sydney too
)
Hullo Janet, nice to know you are from Sydney too
I got mine from Taiwan, I have also seen this one in Aka..you know the Jap cosmetic shop in chinatown..quite overpriced though..
I’ve got some Kiss Me Heroine mascara on order, can’t remember if I ordered length or volume hehe ooops
Kiss Me Heroine Make mascaras are my absolute favorite! I’m glad to hear you’re another fan
I bought the Impact Frame mascara right after it was released in February, but I haven’t had a chance to try it yet. Did you happen to do a review for it yet?
I haven’t started using it yet..as I have too many mascaras to go through..
The bad news is so far the reviews I have heard is not sooo good..
I heard the same thing, that it’s not nearly as good as the originals. Cross your fingers!
I live in Canada where can you get those mascaras!?! D:
Hi I’m from Sydney too!! I would like to know where you buy your stuff online?
Reading your post tempts me to try jap brands. Which ones would you recommend?
)))))
