This mascara is so reliable. Separates my lashes and lengthens. Love the tubes and it stays put all day! I never have problems with it running.
This Mascara is awesome no smudging no running completely washes away in little tubes .This is wonderful for creating a big eye with its mess free formula. I like this much better that the cover girl two step mascara(Bombshell).. L'oreal makes the best mascara on the market. In my opinion L'Oreal is s high quality as Lancome , and it can be found on sale. This is a win / win mascara. I also use it to turn my husband into Santa using the white base...its great stuff
I just found this product really useless because although the mascara was good the other side of it which is the illuminator didn't do anything
i noticed no difference at all
not bad...i use thiis for a night out, the result it was there but I was expecting more
I am a lover of long lashes.. but who isn't?
For the past 10 years I have worn fake eyelashes (store bought) off and on. When I discovered Loreal's Double Extend Mascara, that all changed. This item is incredible! No more fake lashes for me, and now I have people asking if I'm wearing fake eyelashes! Can't beat this product.
I was looking for a lengthening mascara as my eyelashes are incredibly short. After looking up possible lengthening mascaras, the L'Oreal Double Extend one seemed to have good reviews and was from a good, reputable brand so I decided to try it out. It was on sale at Shoppers for $6.99 or so as opposed to the $14.99. Maybe the tube was old (since it was on sale) but I realized after opening it, the product was not really liquid like and leaned more on the solid side. However, after applying the mascara, my eyelashes did look visibly longer (however it creates a spider-like look which wasn't what I really expected but it did what it claimed). All in all, I would recommend this to someone else and I think this would be a great mascara for everyday use since it has a lash fortifying serum to protect your lashes.
I bought this mascara because I didn't want to go through eBay anymore to get my usual Fiberwig and Kiss Me mascaras, as they cost a lot and take a month just to arrive. I was hoping it would be able to lengthen my lashes while holding a curl, like my Japanese mascaras did.
The Beauty Tubes mascara is not cheap, at $11 a tube. It may be cheaper than my Japanese mascaras, but this tube is composed of two components -- one primer, one mascara -- that each holds only half the normal amount of formula. I think the packaging looks pretty nice and professional, but wish that the primer brush would be a bit shorter and the mascara brush be thinner. But this is a small complaint.
Despite the large brushes, the mascara was surprisingly easy to use. After curling my lashes, I first sweep on the creamy white mascara primer, which easily coats all my lashes, top and bottom. Without waiting for it to dry, I sweep on a coat of mascara after the primer, making sure to cover all the white spots. After my lashes are coated in mascara, I use the mascara brush to sweep through them again and again, without putting the brush back into the tube. I find that this separates the lashes very nicely without taking up drying time.
One of the main gripes I have about this product is that it takes forever to dry. I put on mascara, and while waiting for it to dry I put on blush, contour, lipstick, and after all that I still have to fan my face in order for it to dry so I can curl it. If I curl it before it completely dries it makes my eyelashes stick together and that ruins the whole look. My top and bottom eyelashes also sometimes stick together while drying and I have to separate them with a toothpick.
However, if I do everything right and curl it after it dries properly, the result is gorgeous. I get wide-eyed, fanned-out lashes that are perfectly separated and curled. I normally have single eyelids and when I use this mascara it makes my lashes so long that they push up my eyelids to become double eyelids!
Also, the staying power is excellent as long as you do not get your eyes wet. I do not have to worry about losing my curl or smudging all day until I wash it off at home, which is done easily with just warm water. However, if I get watery eyes or get my face wet then I lose my curl right away.
I will absolutely repurchase this mascara since it works phenomenally when everything is done right. I am very meticulous with my makeup and to be it is worth it.
