Not for me

I was excited that I had received a trial sized version of this mascara in a sample gift set from the Clinique counter at the mall, and while I have had good results with Clinique mascaras that I have used in the past, I cannot say that this one is a keeper. My first impression of it was that I really love the glamorous, clean look of the package-- the white with silver is so classy looking, and you know right away whenyou see it that you are using a Clinique product. But when I opened it, I was immediately hit with a strange, medicinal odor from the product. Deciding to try it anyway, I took a look at the brush and saw that it was not really a brush at all, but more of a very short comb. Unfortunately, I didn't like how it performed, as it deposited too much of the mascara on my lashes, even though I wiped the applicator down with a tissue twice before putting it on to my lashes. The results that I got upon applying it to my lashes were very clumpy and streaky, and there was really no way to get definition through the lasheswith the brush that comes in it. The formula is way too wet in my opinion; I did not feel like it was ever going to dry. I did really like the color of it, though-- the black was very rich and deep, and that is something that I am particularly picky about. But the color on its own is not enough to get me to use this mascara again. it was just too messy and the comb-type brush just seemed like a useless gimmick. The formula on its own might actually be okay, and I intend to try it with a different, traditional brush, to see if I can make some use out of it. Otherwise, I will probably just throw this one away. — 8 months, 4 weeks ago

Beautiful Lengths

I love the brush of this mascara, the slight bent gives a nice curl while also providing wonderful lengths. I would recommend as with an mascara to curl your lashes first because that really makes the difference of making your eyes pop and stand out beautifully. — 11 months, 2 weeks ago
