L'Oreal Paris Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara, Black, 0.33 Ounces

Product Information

Editor Tip: When we tried this stuff, it lived up to its smudge-proof claims, even through a sweaty workout (although it's not tear-proof or waterproof). Yes, this dual-ended tubing mascara requires you apply two different products—an eyelash primer and then a tubing mascara—but the results are so GD impressive that I doubt you'll mind. The primer is infused with panthenol and ceramides to condition lashes, while the little tubes in the mascara cling to lashes to provide a dramatic lengthening effect.

This lengthening mascara is formulated with natural oils, nylon fibers, and vitamin E to give you the silky-smooth, mile-long lashes of your dreams. If you've given them a go before, you may already be familiar with the oddly satisfying visual of your lashes appearing to shed, like snakeskin, while your real lashes thankfully stay intact. (On the other hand, if this is your first try, don't freak out when you see lash-like, little tubes going down the drain!) If you're in the market for a cruelty-free, vegan makeup product, this here is your bb. Formulated with polymers that give a super long-lasting and lengthening effect, this tubing mascara is one of my all-time favorites for extra long lashes that don't smear or run.It comes down to personal preference when deciding which type of mascara is better per se. Regular mascara uses wax and pigment, which tends to flake easier. However, because conventional mascara is a majority of the mascara market, there are a ton of options.

Pros: Waterproof, slim brush that grips even the tiniest lashes, advanced lifting formula, smudge-proof. OK, listen up: So not only does the formula of this tubing mascara take the cake, but the wand is a close second. Made with three different types of bands, the wand lengthens and defines each and every lash. Basically, this mascara is gold. Why It's Worth It: Blinc Mascara is the original tubing mascara that started the trend and its legacy is still going strong, as evidenced by its 2023 Best of Beauty Award seal. It's since branched out into six different colors (like burgundy and navy) and features a soft, curved brush and formula that imparts a lengthening, "your-lashes-but-better" look. It doesn't budge, flake, or smudge throughout the day, and it's even tear-proof. Apply the basecoat (the white end), to your lashes, being sure to coat them completely. This step is formulated with nourishing ingredients which help to protect and strengthen lashes, effectively preparing them for tubing.Editor Tip: Lavonne recommends lightly dusting your lashes with a little loose powder before applying the mascara for added longevity, as well as a dab underneath the eyes to prevent transfer.
