Looks can be deceiving though, and you never really know whether a formula will deliver until you actually put it on. Good news: As soon as it hit my lashes, I was into it. The formula is incredibly black, possibly one of the darkest I've ever tried, and the comblike brush really coated every single lash. My lashes looked defined, fanned out, and above all, long. If you're into fluffy, voluminous lashes, this probably isn't the best mascara for you since it's a little wet. I personally prefer more defined, long lashes since volume formulas tend to clump up on me, so it was right up my alley.
In terms of wear, it is totally smudge-proof. I wore it all day long with no flaking or raccoon eyes. However, note that since it's a fiber or “tubing” formula, it's not waterproof. The plus side is all it takes is a little warm water for the mascara to slide right off, no makeup remover needed, but it did come off when I teared up while chopping shallots, so it's probably not ideal for easy criers or a pool day. All in all, I think the gorgeous length is worth the risk.
Please ignore my peeling forehead and remember to wear SPF.
Bella CacciatoreDespite it being a little pricer than what I usually go for, I think my lashes speak for themselves. And for the time being, I'll just reallocate some of my lipstick budget to my mascara.
