L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Lift Mascara, Lengthening and Volumizing Eye Makeup, Lash Lift with Up to 36HR Wear, Waterproof, Black, 0.33 fl oz

I was kindly selected to review this product as a member of the Superdrug Community.I like the packaging of the product. The holographic writing against the black text is really appealing, but also simple. The packaging is plastic, as is the wand. What makes this mascara stand out compared to many others is the shape of the wand. There is a wide curved shaped wand with small plastic bristles, and on each edge there are some longer plastic bristles acting as a comb. This makes using this mascara slightly different to other mascaras, as there is a bit more technique required.Starting with the wider curved area, I ran the mascara through my lashes. I thankfully have quite long lashes, but this mascara increased their length by almost double!!

This makes using this mascara slightly different to other mascaras, as there is a bit more technique required.Starting with the wider curved area, I ran the mascara through my lashes. I thankfully have quite long lashes, but this mascara increased their length by almost double!! Then using the comb part of the wand, I separated my lashes out. It took a little getting used to, but once you find the knack of using the wand, this mascara was so simple and effective. It does not provide the biggest amount of volume, but it is certainly lengthening.I put on two coats, and it looked great. The only reason why this is not a 5/5 review, is that by the end of the day, I noticed a small amount of smudging onto my eyelids. This might just be because I get oily eyelids as the day progresses. I found that wearing a waterproof mascara on top of one coat of this mascara stopped this smudging from happening, and that is now how I prefer to wear my lashes.Overall, I think this is a great mascara that I will continue to use!

I was kindly gifted the L’Oréal telescopic mascara by the Superdrug Community.First and foremost with the packaging, this is a sophisticated design and looks high end. I like the intrinsic wand shape. I haven’t come across an applicator like this which has a raised / curved wand. This seems to be a USP along with the bristles of the wand. It gives the mascara a unique edge.Performance-wise I am astounded by its ability to lengthen lashes and how it is multi-purpose due to the wand! The bristles separate lashes and define them without the need for a separate lash comb. Therefore I am able to carry this with me when travelling and not need any additional tools to define lashes. My lashes with one coat appeared more prominent, lengthened and curled slightly.

The bristles separate lashes and define them without the need for a separate lash comb. Therefore I am able to carry this with me when travelling and not need any additional tools to define lashes. My lashes with one coat appeared more prominent, lengthened and curled slightly. With two coats, the curl had become more pronounced as evident in the images I have enclosed. These are my natural lashes - no lash lift or extensions. I am impressed with how lifted my lashes looked.As for the formula, I have oily skin and find high-end mascaras predominantly contain oils to nourish and hydrate lashes but I prefer mascaras which don’t as it ends up transferring everywhere. Therefore I like this mascara. It didn’t transfer throughout the day and proved to have the longevity I desire in a mascara.To conclude, this mascara has a unique wand and design which gives it a high-end feel. I love how it curled and lifted my lashes with two coats and I will continue using this and repurchase!

Okay so I am 50/50 with this mascara. I'll start off with the positives: 1. This lasted all throughout the day, I wore it the other day when it was raining outside and my lashes did not deflate. No flaking or smudging or budging of any sorts. 2. I really do like the comb part of the wand, my lashes always need to be combed after mascara because they clump every time so it was convenient to have that part of the design. 3. My lashes were very dark and did lengthen with this. Now time for the negatives I experienced: 1. I'm assuming because it is waterproof that that was the reason why it took me longer to remove versus normal mascara. I usually get my normal mascara off pretty quickly but this waterproof one took a little bit of extra time. 2. The application is ... MoreOkay so I am 50/50 with this mascara.

I usually get my normal mascara off pretty quickly but this waterproof one took a little bit of extra time. 2. The application is confusing and difficult. I read the instructions on how to apply and use the mascara but it's hard to do unfortunately. 3. Although I love the comb section of the brush, that being said, you have to make sure you separate the lashes before they dry. Which is a little annoying because you have to apply a layer, brush, apply another layer, brush; it's time consuming and tedious. In conclusion I am rather conflicted with this mascara. I like it but I also don't like it. I love that it doesn't flake because that is such a common issue I have with normal mascaras but I really hate how difficult and time consuming the actual application is. So in the end, I'll continue to use this Mascara but I don't think I'll purchase myself just for the reason the wand is hard and confusing to use.
