Fairy Drops Mascara レビュー


フェアリードロップスはドラッグストアで買えるマスカラで、その魅力的なパッケージと名前で良く知られており、ロサンゼルスの元ニュースキャスターによって開発された物です。マスカラはウォータープルーフで、固まってくっ付くこと無く豊かなボリュームとカールを約束してくれます。ブラシはユニークなをしていて、まつ毛の一本一本までしっかりキャッチしてコートしてくれるようになっています。

Fairy Drops is a drug-store mascara, well-known for its attractive packaging and name, developed by a former news anchor from Los Angeles. Waterproof, the mascara promises to provide rich volume and curl to the lashes without any clumping. The brush also has a unique teardrop-shape, designed to catch and coat every lash.


このフェアリードロップスのマスカラを使ってみると、まつ毛が繊細で可愛らしい"妖精のような"感じになりました。ボリュームを増やしてくれますが、カールをキープするのにちょうど良い軽さです。ヴィルトゥーズやイプノーズほどのドラマチックな結果は出ませんが、ドラッグストアで買える他のマスカラよりも断然良いと思います。しかし、ほとんどまつ毛を長く見せてくれない点と(長く見せるとは約束していませんが)、商品説明に書いてあるのに、結構固まってくっ付いてしまいます。マスカラを付けた日の終わりには目の下が黒くなり、合成繊維の素材のせいか目がかゆくなります。使ってみていくつか問題があったので、またフェアリードロップスを買うとは思いませんが、将来的にプラチナ・バージョンは試してみるかもしれません。税込みで1,575円です。


After using the mascara, I found that Fairy Drops gave my eyelashes a delicate, pretty, "fairy-like" appearance. It added volume to my lashes but was light enough to help maintain their curl. While the mascara did not produce as dramatic results as Hypnôse or Virtuôse, I do think it they were more dramatic than what I have seen from some of the other drugstore mascaras. However, it did little in terms of lengthening (though it never promised it would) and despite its claims, did clump quite a bit. At the end of each day I wore the mascara, I had dark circles under my eyes and my eyes itched, likely due to the fiber-like formula. I do not think I will purchase Fairy Drops again because of the problems I have experienced but I may try the Platinum version in the future. 1,575 yen including tax.

I found that this mascara dries up soooo quickly! And yes, I did close it tightly! :(

i wonder how this matches up to the Opera mascara.. I like lighter mascara that gives a good lift to my lashes :)

Old Cow,
I'm sorry to hear that. My bottle hasn't dried up yet and I've been using the mascara for about a month and half. But I do think the formula is kind of drying/flaky. (Love your username, by the way.)

Blovet Beauty,
I haven't tried the Opera mascara but I have used Fiberwig which is supposed to be similar. Fiberwig adds more length while Fairy Drops adds more volume. I personally prefer the look I get with Fairy Drops but unlike Fiberwig, it is clumpy and smudges quite a bit.

kuri♥ayu,
Thank you for commenting. It really is too bad. =(

Melissa,

Thank you for welcoming me back.=)
There are international web stores that sell Fairy Drops (including auction sites like ebay) though a few of them are charging a lot more than the original price.
