L'Oreal Paris Studio Line #TXT Volume Supersizing Spray – Review

I have naturally thin hair and so I am always on the lookout for products that would add volume and bounce to my locks.

Line #TXT Volume Supersizing Spray
With texturising micro-powders the volume supersizing spray instantly creates bouffant back-combed volume from root to tip. Leaves the hair sensationally texturised and volumised, with an irresistible matt finish.

My thoughts
I am on my second can and I have to say, I am super impressed. It claims to add texture and volume to your hair – it does exactly that. It smells amazing which is a plus because usually hair sprays smell awful. Besides adding body to my hair, it also makes hair appear somewhat matte and natural-looking as opposed to looking like you’ve put something in your hair.

I like to spray it on my roots and back comb if needed. When I am in a rush, I spray it on and scrunch my locks to create volume and texture. It doesn’t have a lasting hold which is kind of disappointing. Also, I noticed that it makes my scalp oilier than usual – another downside.

All in all, I am in love with it only because it adds lots of volume to my lifeless hair.

You might like it if...

• It adds volume and texture to your hair
• You think it smells amazing
• It makes your hair matte 

You might not it this...

• It makes your scalp oily the next day
• It doesn't hold very well

L’Oreal Mega Volume Miss Manga Mascara – Review & swatches

Inspired by the unique Japanese Manga theme, this mascara promises to make your eyes appear more awake. You would know if you’ve seen Manga girls with those big doe-eyes which, as a matter of fact, make them look so innocent, no?

Mega Volume Miss Manga Mascara
Mega Volume Miss Manga Mascara creates mega volume on top and bottom so eyes look more open.

Our exclusive formula, made up of enlarging collagen spheres works perfectly in conjunction with the 360° flexible cone shaped brush to amplify upper lashes and reveal lower lashes.

The exclusive formula also contains a trilogy of polymers for absolute hold and staying power.

My thoughts
Even though I am digging the fancy concept, I am not blown away by its performance to be honest. In my opinion, the formula is nothing special because it gives me very similar results that I get with my regular mascaras that are devoid of any collagen spheres.

The conical wand features varying bristle length which tapers at the tip to target the shortest lashes. It definitely helps coats the hard-to reach and bottom lashes without any fuss. However, I don’t see any use for the 360° rotation because the wand hardly ever bends during application. Speaking of the formula, it leans just a bit on the wet side but not so much so that it's troubling. It does give noticeable volume in a single coat and lift my lashes however, I would strictly advise against doing multiple coats. Layering too much would only give you clumped-up spider lashes. There isn’t much lengthening but I can’t really complain about that since it only claims to volumize. It feels light and holds the curl well through the day.

Overall, I think it’s an okay-ish mascara. Not bad but doesn't entirely deliver what it claims, Manga eyes that is!

You might like it if…

• You expect it to give volume and lift to your lashes
• The mascara doesn’t feel heavy
• It holds the curl and stays put
• The wand ensures coating longest and shortest lashes easily

You might not it if…

• You expect dramatic lengthening
• Your lashes get clumpy with multiple coats
