Za Perfect Action Mascara
Alongside with the 8 new eyeshadow palettes, Za also launched 2 new mascaras.
They are: (from top - bottom)
- Za Pefect Action Mascara Smudgeproof
- Za Pefect Action Mascara Waterproof


Both of the Perfect Action Mascaras are exactly the same except for the waterproof and smudgeproof formula.
Mascara formulation contains two types of fibres - long and short that gives you beautiful lengthening effect along the curve of your lashes.

Both too have the same kind of brush.
Flat top (Volume Effect) enables plenty of liquid to coat yoru lashes giving volume. It is also wider for a snug fit against the width of your eye so you don't have to worry about uneven finishing.
Tapered side (Separation Effect) has a comb on the sides of the brush so it helps to seperate lashes giving that wonderful wide-eyed look.

How to apply?
1. Use the flat top of the brush to fit against lashes and comb upwards in zig zag motions for voluminous effect.
2. Use tapered side of the brush to comb through lashes for separation effect.

When Za announced there're new mascaras included in this launch, I was looking forward to try them. I had tried their Killer Volume mascara and really really love it. (Read my review) I hope these 2 new babies will be good too!
