Eyelash Curler Review: FANNY SERRANO by F21 COSMETICS

I was born with short and thin lashes so it was really a "girl dilemma" to me how to accentuate my eyes (in fairness I have brown eyes, so it lacks a bit when it comes to brows and lashes).

Upon reading reviews over the net, the best eyelash curler is SHU-UEMURA's eyelash curler (it was claimed as picture-perfect lash curl that lasts)...but then again, it roughly costs USD 20-28  (that's approximately Php 1,000 or more) T_T and once the eyelash curler refill is damaged, they don't sell separate refills (there are only 2 refills i think) so you will be forced to buy a new one. OUCH!

One time I passed by one of the stalls in SM North Department Store, and luckily I found an eyelash curler at Fanny Serrano by F21 cosmetics. Been hearing a lot of raves about this so I told myself why not give it a try?

...and the best thing about it, they sell refills at a reasonable price! 

approximately Php 45.00 

So let's proceed to the test!

The curlers actually looked like (or should I say have similarities) with SHU UEMURA's eyelash curler.

Both SHU-UEMURA and FANNY SERRANO by F21 Cosmetics' eyelash curler have this feature: wide-angled opening that can cater almost all kinds of eye shapes, though with SHU-UEMURA, it's a bit better in the handle opening.  But then, it is still tolerable.  

This is how my lashes looks like when not using an eyelash curler:

This is how my eyelash look like after using Fanny Serrano Eyelash curler:

Notice how it curls naturally!

Mind you, it lasts all day long!  It even looks beautifully with Majolica Majorca Lash King Mascara! Amazingly, it doesn't break my lashes and there's no OUCH thingy when using it!!!!

My kikay verdict? (1 to 10, 10 being the highest)

COST: 10 (it was way cheaper than those high-end eyelash curler)

EFFECTIVENESS: 10 (Despite of its lower cost, it doesn't compromise its natural looking result when used properly)

DURABILITY: 9 (Fair enough for it's price)

STAYING POWER: 10 (It lasts all day)

I'm rating it 4.5 out of 5 total points.

Will I purchase one again when I'm done with it?

The answer is DEFINITELY YES!

How about you?  Do you find it reasonably good?
