REVIEW: Loreal False Lash Telescopic Mascara

When I first seen the adverts for this product with Cheryl Cole wearing NO lash inserts (kudos to Loreal for this) I knew I wanted to get my hands on it! Loreal claim ‘the innovative lengthening fibre formula builds intensity. Lashes look elongated as if beyond their tips.’ When it comes to my eyelashes I have not been gifted with naturally long ones and I love a lot of length so this mascara looked right up my street!


I’m a total sucker for packaging and this mascara really does it for me. I think it’s really unique looking with a lovely slender shape and I love the silver colour.

 
The first thing that I immediately loved about this mascara was the brush. It is plastic which may put some people off as I know a lot of girls stick to bristle brushes, but I’m not too fussed either way. The brush is quite long so one sweep and all my lashes are coated. I also love that it really grips them from the roots, helping the lengthening process. 
The formula of this mascara is very smooth and creamy without being too wet (which I sometimes don’t like) and it glides on your lashes like a dream! 
Personally, I’m never too fussed about volume, I just want long separated lashes but if you do like volume, this definitely gives depth to your eyelashes and I was surprised by how much I liked this!


As first impressions go I was head over heels for this mascara however I do have a teensie weensie downfall I feel I have to mention. I curl my lashes before putting on mascara to help keep some length and curl throughout the day and it usually works a treat with other mascaras but by the end of the day, I was surprised to see the mascara just didn’t quite look the same as it did when I applied it. My lashes didn’t look quite as lengthened but I’m not sure if this is just because the product is so smooth and needs to dry out a little bit or it’s something I’m doing so please don’t let this put you off!
Overall I’m so pleased I got my hands on this and I would definitely repurchase!

Have you tried this mascara? What’s your favourite lengthening mascara?
