This picture was taken late in the day after running around all day in 80 degree heat. As you can see the mascara, both top (Lancome Hypnose) and lower (Tarte) stayed put. There was no drifting, flaking, smudging, etc. I have not touched up my eyes in any way.
This mascara is billed as the first lower lash mascara. That may be true, but there are at least two others that combine upper and lower lash mascaras in the same packaging. One is Avon. The other is Guerlain Le 2. The brushes for the lower lashes on all three are comparable, but I like Avon’s the least.
My take:
I think this mascara rocks! It stays put better on my eyes than either the Avon or the Guerlain. Avon’s tends to irritate the skin around my eyes, whereas their other mascaras do not.
The mascara is quite wet. At first it tended to go on too heavily, but I was able to modify it easily using the same brush so the mascara distributed without clumping.
I like that it stays looking fresh all day.
You wouldn’t think you’d need a mascara specifically for lower lashes, but it really is easier to apply with a smaller brush. I don’t have trouble with larger brushes; this just is easier.
Have you tried this mascara or the others I mentioned?
How do you think they compare?
Meantime, if you haven’t tried this mascara, it’s worth trying. Let me know if it stays put as well on you, as it did on me.
