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!

Here we go with just another black mascara. I bought it in waterproof and it stays on and doesn't smudge or flake. It is easy to remove with makeup remover. NO big thrills here. It is difficult to build on and requires several coats. I didn't notice any lengthening. No surprise!

I like this product a lot, but i prefer it dried out as a comb more than an actual mascara. As a mascara it was amazing, it was very lengthening however there was very little volume. I have tried over 25 mascaras and i'd have to say this is my 2nd favorite. #1 is extra volume collagene. I like the 2 together. The packaging can be improved because sometimes i find it hard to take out and the price here in canada is like 13$ so it's not that cheap... But i would definitely say it is so worth the price! I love this to dead.

I'm not a big fan of mascara with thin brushes, but this product is pretty great. It doesn't clump, really separates my lashes, plus makes my lashes look longer. I really like the formula for this.. I can wear it for hours on end and it doesn't smudge. I will for sure repurchase.

Well, this is one of the products for which I hope that will never be discontinued! I've tried all other versions that came afterwards. I have also tried pretty much every single mascara within the same price and quality range (mascara-freak, I know) but this is really the best. I have long, but somewhat sparse eyelashes. What I GET is a good thick, moist layer, and the brush covers the eyelashes from the lid itself, somehow creating an effect of a eye-liner (you get it when applying this mascara from the very root of the the eyelash, it is sort of residue that creates this). Great effect, especially for those who are not so skilled in using the eyeliner (I'm the one). Nice, moist, easy gliding formula and an extraordinary brush makes the eyelashes look really out of this world.

I am an absolute fan of this mascara. I do know many other people hate this mascara because it makes your lashes spidery and clumpy. I understand and actually agree with you guys, because it does do that. However, this mascara does not do this for me. It makes my eyelashes separate amazingly, also giving me incredible length and volume. I totally recommend this mascara for a try, some of you may hate it and some may just be the lucky ones such as me. Overall, great mascara!!

This is a weird mascara. Yes, it does make your lashes longer but it also is oddly clumpy as well. The brush is so thin and small and it seems like I should be able to separate the lashes better, but it seems they clump and get spidery right off the bat. I would not buy again.

Do not like this mascara, yes it adds length but the formula is incredibly wet, creating very spidery lashes. I like how black this mascara is and the tiny wand can be helpful, but the lack of bristles makes me feel like Im Just painting my lashes with mascara. Don't waste your money and please don't believe the hype not worth it I recommend covergirl lash blast and maybelline lash steletto .

I have this mascara in carbon black,I bought it because I heard such great reviews,I must say that I am SUPER PICKY about mascara so what I think may be totally different then what others think but I think it is average,the brush for me is hard to work with and it was to wet for me. I dried it out for a day and it was a little better, it is good I guess if you are looking for a more natural,lengthining look! I probably will not buy again unless it was on sale...

I have short slightly curled eye lashes. After I finished a tube of mascara I always bought a different brand going anywhere from $10-$40. big eyelashes are my favorite part of wearing make up. That all changed once I found this mascara. It about doubles the length and volume of my lashes. I typically do about three coats without allowing it to dry in between and I don't get any clumps in my eye lashes! It's amazing I'm never buying a new mascara. I can honestly say I'm on my 6th tube. Although I don't recommend it for your bottom lashes.

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G

ok ladies - if you're not into the somewhat clumped spider web kinda looking lashes then I do not recommend this product HOWEVER, if you don't mind that and want the longest/biggest lashes of your life GET THIS!!!!

pros:
huge eyelashes
build-able
really does make eyelashes 60% longer like it claims
does not flake

cons:
clumps if you apply many layers

I will never use another mascara again, this stuff is great. I have tried many, many mascaras from high end to cheap and this is the best. Do yourself all a favor and at least give this stuff a try. =)

This is my HG mascara. I have really long but straight lashes and the liquid-y consistency really coats them well and allows me to build them. I could see how the brush might take some getting used to but I am absolutely in love with this.

DO NOT get the other versions of this... this one is the best (gold tube). So surprised people don't like this.
