CLINIQUE HIGH DEFINITION LASHES BRUSH THEN COMB MASCARA
TWMichello (160 reviews)

Oooooh! This is my absolute favourite mascara.......EVER! I seem to collect mascaras and foundations,as they are my two favourite makeup items. This is my most favourite mascara! Love how thick and lush it makes my lashes look. Goes on quickly and volumises and lengthens effortlessly. And thats saying something for a lash-challenged girl like me. I don't mind that it isn't waterproof,as I prefer non water proof mascara anyway. Please never stop making this Clinique! I would cry :) I received this mascara for Christmas and have been pleasantly surprised by it's performance. The brush has two sides, a flexible comb side and a traditional brush side. I find for individual lash definition and length, I prefer to use the comb side. This mascara does not flake or transfer, but it is NOT waterproof at all. I wore it while I had a cold and, and even a single tear from a sneeze left me with marks under my eyes. The tube itself is rather skinny, so you don't get as much product as others I have tried. But overall I would by it again as it is one of my favorites, especially if there was a waterproof version available. I agree with another reviewer. This coats very well without clumping and looking cheap and fake and spidery (I hate spider lashes!). Building is easy. So good day to night wear with varying coats. have tried dior chanel even drugstore mascaras, clinique seems to be my goto. I have fairly naturally lush lashes , and these dont weigh em down either. I have found defining mascaras much better than volumizing ones, less clump, more professionally done makeup look. I have very long, thick lashes to start with so if I comb my lashes too many times I end up looking borderline ridiculous. I bought this mascara because I liked the idea of being able to comb out after, which I used to just do with a regular mascara brush that I cleaned off from an old tube. If you struggle in the lash area, I bet this would be amazing, for me I am going to reserve it for night time. I bought it in brown/black. — 1 month, 3 weeks ago

no clumps even if you tried
MakeupGuru (424 reviews)

The comb style on one end is my favorite side, although it doesn't beat Lash Stylist mascara's comb. It gives you a clean separated look that's natural, not a thick dramatic effect. The formula is clean and glossy, it is just an okay mascara for me. — 4 years ago

Massively full lashes
radar626 (318 reviews)

The brush/comb applicator took some getting used to, but I have to say that this is really the only downside to this mascara. I was really happy with how full my lashes looked, and I didn't need to use a primer either. When using this mascara with a primer, friends were asking if I was wearing false eyelashes because it was about time. No one believed it was just this mascara and primer. I can't really say I noticed a real difference in how long my lashes appeared, but I really didn't mind as I suffer more from sparseness. I found for me that the comb side works best if some of the mascara is wiped off each side first. I use the brush side, then the comb, then a swipe or two of the brush side again which removes any clumps and spider leg lashes. It wore really well all day, too. Even after napping in the car after a day out and about I didn't have any circles or flakes and my eyes still looked great. I will certainly add this mascara to my makeup drawer again. — 2 years, 2 months ago

So-so
ModernDayWriter (196 reviews)

I just got this yesterday, so I am still in the 'trying out' phase with this mascara. I can tell you my initial reaction though- I'm not crazy about it. Maybe my technique in using the comb side is wrong, but it left me with horrible and clumpy spider lashes. However, the brush side was okay. But just okay, not spectacular. I've used better mascaras. I love Clinique, but I think I'll stick to their face care products for now. -Edited: I had to come back here and edit my review! I've had a few weeks to try this out now and it has really started to grow on me. I don't use the comb side at all, and stick to very thin light coats with the brush side. The formula doesn't allow you to pack on too many coats for volume, so it's best applied with a very light hand. That being said, the results are pretty fabulous once you get used to the formula. Nothing too dramatic, perfect for a daytime wear-to-work look. It isn't the most resistant formula to sweating or smudging. A breeze to take off at the end of the day too. — 4 years, 2 months ago

Clinique mascaras just don't seem to work well for me and this one is no exception. Didn't do much of anything. — 2 weeks, 1 day ago

Perfect seperation!
mafie97 (1 reviews)

I just need to say: I LOVE THIS MASCARA!!! :) This is one of the best i have, and it is almost perfect. I gives Perfect seperation, every lash gets a bit mascara on it, with out any clumps! The only flaw this product have (if you even can call it a flaw) is that it doesn't give extreme volume.. It could have given more. You can use this as a mascara ''primer'' to seperate the lashes and give them lenght, and the you can use a volume mascara as a second layer. I do that many times (most for parties). This is a must have!!! :) — 1 month, 2 weeks ago

High def mascara
amajoh (3 reviews)

This is my absolute favorite mascara ever. It lengthens my lashes and separates them perfectly, and the best part is that I don't have to use much of it at all. I would recommend this to everyone. — 2 months, 2 weeks ago

Not the best ever
mssimsthe3 (4 reviews)

I recently got this at my local drug store and used it the next day. I was greatly dissapointed when the whole bottle was dry. Then i went back, told the manager my problem, and returned it. I got a new one and opened it right there to make sure it was good and moist - it was. I went home and put it on and was very suprised when i saw how clumpy and flaky it was.. The only thing good about it was the wand. The wand is a normal wand but it works good so i cleaned it off, and threw the entire bottle a way. What a waste. — 2 months, 3 weeks ago
