L'Oréal Paris Mascara, Telescopic Original Mascara to Achieve Dramatic Length & Definition, Up to +71% Lengthening Effect, Smudge-Resistant and Long-Wearing Formula for Up to 36H Wear, 8ml

I have tried many mascara's throughout the years (from cheap to expensive high end ones), and this is the one I keep coming back to. It has a nice smooth formula, does not clump, and the wand makes the application easy. While not a waterproof mascara (though there is a version of waterproof telescopic mascara too), it does not smudge or glide off unless your face gets wet in the rain. It has a neutral cosmetic smell, and is not perfumed unlike certain other mascara's out there (Louis Vuitton mascara: I'm looking at you!). If you prefer a natural look: don't be deterred by the name. While it does say "false lash"; unless you're wearing false lashes, this mascara will not make you look like you are. I think the name is more of a gimmick to make consumers associate the effect of this mascara with something so unattainable, it could only be fake. Do not be fooled, the result of your eyelashes will depend on the application technique used more than anything else, but a good formula and wand does go a long way in attaining that result! Speaking of application technique; when the mascara is brand new, it does tend to have quite a lot of product come off on the lashes with the first swipe. My solution is to keep working with the product until I reach the desired look, a good tip is to try the zig-zag technique. I noticed some Amazon users have commented on there being too much product coming off and therefore rating this product poorly, but with my experience I can say that I'd rather have a mascara with a bit too much product when brand new, than a mascara with the perfect amount of product when new, but which then dries out quicker than quick after only a few uses. The telescopic mascara lasts me 6 months, and only starts to show signs of drying out near the end of those 6 months. The wand is made out of plastic and rubber, and while not the most environmentally friendly, it does a good job of separating the lashes and applying product beautifully. If there is one change I would suggest to L'Oréal, it would be to look into more environmentally friendly and sustainable ways of sourcing products and materials used. If this were to happen, I would be more inclined to try out more of their products following the success of how happy I have been with the formula of this one. I like the fact that the wand is very thin with lots of small rubber bristles as it allows me to apply product onto the lower lashes without mascara rubbing off on the lower eyelids. The wand being a rather sturdy type of rubber with the aforementioned bristles is a nice thing for me as it means I can use it to brush through the eyelashes as opposed to just rubbing product on top of the lashes. The packaging is a nice pale gold with quite a minimalist look, but personally this does not affect my opinion as I care more about what the product does for me than how it looks on the outside. As a tip to any make-up user: I would say to keep an eye on the expiration date. Mascara's tend to expire after 6 months (this particular one expires after 6 months), which is when I would advise you to throw it out and replace it with a new one. This is not *only* because the product dries out and becomes crumbly and difficult to apply, but it is mainly to do with bacterial build-up. Any make-up product will have an expiry date, and it is important to keep track of because if you use it long past its expiration, it could lead to infections. In order to keep track of when your product expires, my tip is to take a permanent marker and write the date of when the product was first opened and used on the packaging. That way you can easily keep track of when it is time to buy a new one. I enjoy writing reviews to help others make the right purchases.

Best mascara I’ve ever used, after just one coat of mascara my lashes looked really long. Usually it takes a few coats of mascara for it to be visible from far away but after one or two coats it lifted my lashes. Once I put on a few coats of mascara and left it the day, my lashes didn’t drop and I hadn’t used an eyelash curler either! Definitely recommend, one of the best mascaras I’ve used so far.

Really good mascara! Makes my lashes really long and voluminous. The only thing is that it is quite difficult to remove! But other than that it is amazing.

Lovely item will recommend Wasn’t sealed but you can tell it wasn’t opened and it filled with all the said ML and had that new mascara texture on my eyes When I opened it, it was moist as how a new mascara should be when first opened

Brilliant for older ladies, does not clog, works with out continual batting of eyelids!

No clumps, lashes look long

I love this mascara however despite the information stating ‘NEW SEALED’ it was in fact not sealed at all. It’s a bit worrying with regards to hygiene as it could have previously been opened or tampered with. That’s the only reason I gave it 3 stars as the mascara itself is really good, especially the thin brush and if it had been hygienically sealed it would have been 5 stars.

Nothing bad to say about this one. I’m telling you—I use this thing every day. It’s affordable, functional, hasn’t leaked a bit, and lengthens my minuscule eyelashes. And that packaging design? To die for. I mean look at it! Shaped like a telescope, it’s so cute! One thing you need to keep in mind is that this mascara is not thickening so it will not make your eyelashes look fuller. It does not claim that it’s thickening though so I don’t see this as an issue. But if you want that thin and long natural look then this is your best bet! You’re welcome!

Been using this brand for years. Love the brush.

Beste Wimperntusche überhaupt! Dünnes Gummibürstchen, dass nicht zu viel Produkt mit sich nimmt! Macht die Wimpern sehr lang!

Ürünler koruma bamti üzerinde olaral geldi güvenle satın alınabilir

Prodotto veramente buonissimo, separa le ciglia perfettamente, effetto laminazione, le allunga tantissimo e ha una durata assurda! Super consigliato

Loves this mascara! 😍 Lengthens and volumizes without clots. Perfect for daily wear!
