Anna Sui Mascara
by carolcana
love the smell, love the design
first, I am asian, not that i have tiny eyes, but my eye lashes are short, and thin. almost look like i have no eyelashes without mascara
- this mascara is smthing i will always use bc it does the job without clumping, i don't mind reapplying 2-3 times to get the job done
- smell so good ... (all Ana Sui product has distinct rose fragrance) , i can't stress that enough. Basically opening the bottle and smelling it while putting on the mascara just make my morning bright. (putting makeup on should be smthing joyful, right???)
-get the work done. Although it said its not waterproof but its definitely more waterproof than some cheaper brand waterproof mascara i had
- i tried cotton pad with water and rubbing it really hard and i only got little products off, where the cheap ELF waterproof comes off easily and flake with i rub my eye
the only thing i dont like about this mascara is that its really hard to take it off, u really have to use the anna sui makeup remover otherwise it does require more time and patient with other brands

Anna Sui Eye Gloss
by coventry123
After trying, and loving, the Dolly Girl on the Beach fragrance by Anna Sui her fragrances soon become top of my wish list and I lusted after each and every one of them. It wasn't until a few months later I realised she actually had a cosmetics collection and after being so impressed by her fragrances I didn't have a second thought about ... buying other products endorsed by Sui.
**What is it?**
It is supposed to be an eye shadow that can be used as a lone application or to add a gloss over the top of pre-existing eye shadows. It promises to open up the eye and make you look great for the party season.
**My Experience**
Amongst my Anna Sui cosmetics haul was the eye gloss. I chose a deep purple colour as I thought it would go well with my eye shadow collection which is mainly dark greys.
The Eye gloss comes in a small black tub with a black water tight lid which has a floaty, girly pattern embossed upon it. I have no qualms with the packaging it is girly and does its job!
The contents feels quite rubbery and hard and I found it hard to apply and I tried applying this with both an eye shadow brush, a lip gloss brush and my fingers to no avail, I expected it to glide on my lids as the word 'gloss' connotes this!
To be honest I didn't particularly like the colour either it looks more like lilac when it is eventually applied which looks quite childish! I tried to apply it over a lighter grey eye shadow and this completely did not work it just looked like a child's painting on my eyelid! Just awash with colour-and not a very nice colour at that!
**Availability and Cost**
I paid a massive £16 for this gloss and it definitely did not live up to my expectations I would definitely not buy any more of Anna Sui's cosmetics but will instead stick to her fragrances! Her cosmetic and fragrance collection are available from Debenhams and other online stores.
Overall, I think this is an overpriced eye gloss-if you can even call it that. The colour is misleading and it is ever so difficult to apply I wouldn't go recommending this in a hurry!

Anna Sui Mascara
by goldenbat666
The first thing I noticed about this mascara was its scent. Anna Sui, in keeping with its rose based packaging, also seems to include rose scent in pretty much anything that they can manage and this mascara is no exception. Although I rather like it, I also must acknowledge that it may annoy the hell out of some people. However, you only ... notice it while your applying it and it either doesn't linger for long or you become accustomed to it pretty quick.
Moving on...
This mascara is great if what you're looking for is a natural look. It doesn't really build volumes so if you're looking to create the heavy lash look, this is not the ideal one for you. However, this mascara does seem to lengthen slightly (though not dramatically).
The one thing I loved about this mascara, however, was its broad selection of colour; I had been dying to get a red mascara for a long time and finally got my hands on them! The unusual colour adds an unique edge and I personally think the silver one would look great for summer.
Since this mascara doesn't have dramatic effects, may be ideal to layer over lashes that already has other mascaras applied.
