telescopic dud
so i spent five days using this product and i gave up. It takes longer to apply the mascara because the wand isn't as widespread as a normal wand. It does what a regular mascara does, no explosion here. They market it being better than a normal wand because they say with theirs you can get the tiny corners of your eyes but i found its just as easy with a regular wand compared to theirs if not easier.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

okay mascara
this mascara was okay. the brush was good because it reached even the hard to reach corner lashes. it is small enough to reach the tiny corners and even the bottom lashes. the formula for the mascara was good. it lengthens but came out to be too clumpy. i think the formula was too creamy. so overall i give it a 6This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful

Refined and Defined
once you get used to the brush (it only takes a day to get the groove) it really does get every single lash - even those teeny tiny corner lashes. I didn't get a huge amount of volume, but it definitely enhanced the length and got every single tiny lash. I especially like how it defined my lower lashes. Again there was no clumping or flaking, and it's not drying on my lashes eitherThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful

10 Best Mascaras -- EVER -
great brush, bad mascara
I love the brush! It makes it really easy to get each lash and to get right down to the base of your lash line. I like to use it to flip out the very outside lashes too...gives you a bit of a cat eye with your lashes. The actual mascara formula, however, isn't that great. I found it quite clumpy and thick. I would like to see them offer this brush with a different formulation of mascara... The stars are strictly for the brush!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

So-so
Alright, so here's the dish on L'Oreal's new Telescopic Explosion Mascara. I'm going to give you all the disclaimer up front: I don't like mascara's that aren't waterproof (they make my lashes fall flat) and my eyelashes are already considerably lengthy. So...I didn't see any lengthening effect after using this product. I used it four times prior to writing this review, and I've got to say, I w...read moreasn't impressed. My lashes weren't very defined either (actually...they were rather on the clumpy side). To it's credit, this mascara didn't flake at all. Last but not least, the funky brush threw me for a loop; at first, I thought it was an innovative design because it allowed me to reach those tiny lashes on the very inside/outside corners of my eyes, however I found that the brush allowed for more clumping than I would have liked. Hope this helps!!!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 3 people said helpful

Longer Lashes
When I first opened the mascara, I was not too sure about the brush. It looked different then all the the others I have tried in the past. The mascara formula was very smooth and creamy. When I applied the mascara there was no clumping and a very smooth application. I was very impressed with how well the mascara added length to my lashes. The mascara lasted through the night with no smearing at al...read morel. The down side of this mascara is that the brush is smaller than I am used to so I had to be careful applying it. I accidently smeared a little on my lid. I would definitely use this mascara again and recommend it to others.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 2 people said helpful

Good price!
The round wand took a little getting used to...the wand is also a bit more like a comb than a brush. Although the wand is flexible, I personally had difficulty reaching the inner and outer shorter lashes, as well as the bottom lashes, which I like to apply from the underneath side. Perhaps with more practice, I will do better. It is nice to have the product wash off with soap and water rather than...read more using an oil-based eye makeup remover. The mascara clumped only slightly, and although the lashes appeared longer and pointed, the look seemed to wear off after a couple of hours. For the reasonable price, this is a good product.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Got a compliment today!
I got a compliment from a coworker today about my eyes! It takes a bit longer to apply this mascara because the wand is so small, but it does allow you to reach all of the lashes...even the hard to get corner lashes. I thought this formula got a little clumpy the more I used it, but it wasn't anything that a q-tip and some make up remover couldn't take care of.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

I Like It
It took a little getting used to with the ball on the end of the wand but it works really well extending your lashes, especially the lower lashes. I would not only use it for myself, but I do make-up and build in the price of mascara in my fee, I give each client their own mascara. The may be the new one I useThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

The wand is the pro and con of this product.
The actual mascara is very typical of L'Oreal mascara, however, the edge is the spherical applicator. The pro: this shape allows you to reach all your eye lashes and to seperate the lashes. The con: it is difficult to use and a more time consuming then the standard. I hope that with time I will become more accustomed to the shape and will speed up my morning routine.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful
