Best mascara I have used so far. Can't wait to get another one once I finish Max Factor False Lashes Fusion.

I think black and lengthened lashes look really good on hazel eyes, because it is both graceful and daring. Black lashes compliment your eye colour. However, when the product aims at giving volume, it fails to lengthen your eyes. With this mascara, my lashes reach my eyebrow, and it does not look heavy, because I really don't esteem false lash effect for daytime.

Telescopic combs your lashes from root to tip, therefore it paints the whole lash. And you reach the wanted look without applying it twice or thrice. No mascara comb quite like it, I don't like thick combs because they don't reach the roots of the lashes.

I am a makeup ADDICT and I continue to go out and buy more and more mascaras but I have been using this since I was in junior high and as long as they make ti I will never stop. If I could suggest one beauty product it would be this one. PLEASE keep making this forever.

ive always looked for the mascara to make my lashes bold and noticable with extreme length. This mascara has gotten me numerous compliments and people actually asking if they are real! it takes a while to dry so patience is key but well worth it. Amazing!!

I bought the Telescopic original mascara (in the gold package) and I had high hopes since I've heard good things about this product. Unfortunately, this mascara doesn't work for me at all. I found the wand to be really strange (it's very thin and small) and the formula was too wet for my liking. It did add some length and volume but it clumped like crazy on my lashes. Maybe I bought the wrong one, but this one was one of the least favorite mascaras I've bought.

This mascara is a miracle. Never thought I would love a mascara this much!

I at first bought the one in the gold tube, and picked up brown black by accident. I was completely unimpressed. The product seemed dry from first application and it gave zero volume and very little length. Since it was brown you could barely tell I was wearing mascara. Did not get the hype.

The second time round, I decided to give it another try as Viviannadoesmakeup and others contiually rave about it. I made sure to get the one in the black tube (like the one Vivianna has). I curl my lashes before with just a regular lash curler and apply generous coatings. WOW. My lashes look AMAZING.

All i can say is when you first apply this, it instantly seperates your lashes, making a fanned effect. As well as volume and length, I also need a nice shape to my lashes and this mascara makes the outer lashes really pretty and fluttery which I love. It definitly adds length, my lashes are almost to my eyebrows when applying only two coats and I love how black and dark this mascara looks.

Whats more, I am a weirdo but I love how my lashes look from the side, and if the lashes are high up and curly, then the mascara is a definite winner for me (very few mascaras give that look from the side, but this manages it and actually holds the curl!)

Best mascara ever!!!! (so far)

Initially on buying this product i hated it, given that it was dissimilar to the type of mascara i'd usually use, that being very voluminous, and admittedly, clumpy, creating very big statement lashes
Since buying this mascara, i have completely changed my approach to how i like my lashes to look, that now being very long and thin, but nicely shaped and extended
When you get familiar with this product and the brush it is fantastic
Every time i use it my lashes look brilliant, so long and separated, giving them a lovely shape. However, if you like voluminous and super black lashes i wouldn't recommend this product, although it could work for day time
By far the best mascara I've ever used, surpassing mac zoom lash and some Lancome mascaras, and you can buy it on the high street! Love it

A great mascara however it is hard to work with at first. I found it to be a little watery so it was important to use a light hand. Now that I've had 2 tubes and am used to the formula, I absolutely LOVE the effect of the mascara. I love big lashes and no eyeliner and this is the perfect mascara for that effect. It costs anywhere from $8-10 which shouldn't scare anyone away from this product!

I wasn't too sure of this product until I brushed it on and really liked it. The brush is super thin so if it was clumpy as I was suspicious about you would know and the case is its not clumpy at all!

The product gets very hot during the summer so it almost hurts to touch lol

The mascara itself is great and I would definitely repurchase.

I've used this mascara for about a year, and it's easily one of my must-haves. I layer mascaras, and this always serves as my very first layer. It really lengthens my lashes better than any mascara I've ever used - and trust me, I've tried them ALL. It doesn't add any volume, but it doesn't claim to. So if you're not looking for volume, then this is perfect as it lengthens and separates fantastically. It's one of those mascaras that get better and better the older they get and once they dry out a bit. I also found that it gives eyelashes a nice curl.

The only con to this mascara that I can think of is that the wand is VERY flimsy. It can easily be bent and even broken off if you're not careful when taking it out and putting it back in the tube.

You hear a lot about this mascara clumping and/or creating a spidery effect. Both of which are true based on how you apply your makeup. If you rush through it - don't use this mascara. If you can take 3 min per eye then this is DEFINITELY A GREAT MASCARA FOR YOU! It creates a sleek, dark, lengthened look. If applied correctly, it can look like you're not wearing mascara at all. It doesn't smudge off all day, yet comes off easily with makeup remover!! It's a bit expensive but worth it for those ppl who want beautiful, dark, long, clean lookin lashes all day! When applying, clumping will occur if you rush it or wait to long in between coats. Nice even coats right after each other should do the trick! It doesn't make you look like you have more lashes - but that's what eyeliner is for!! It's pricey but way cheaper than high end brands like Chanel and creates a very beautiful elegant look!
