I first got to try this mascara in one of clinique's gift with purchase promotions, and have since bought a full tube. This mascara has an excellent consistency and doesn't clump. It doesn't create amazing lengths but accentuated each lash and adds volume to create a natural more voluminous and feathery look. I love using it during the day, especially in the summer, since it's pretty much smudge proof despite not being waterproof.

I have a theory that Clinique made too much of this mascara wand a few years ago and has been bending over backwards trying to sample them out. It's too bad though, because it's not the best introduction to the brand that it could be.

The bristles are very shallow and slightly curved so it makes it easy to flick up and twist into your lashes, but if you have VERY fine/short eyelashes beware! I generally try to wipe a bit on some kleenex or cloth before applying and always have to blink on a napkin to set it.

The mascara adds a nice, natural look to your lashes while thickening them a bit. It's more of a subtle effect rather than an ostentatious eyelash affair. If you want a dark, thick evening look this is not the mascara for you. If you want a day look or something for work, it fits the bill. Not sure I'd buy it though.

I got a deluxe sample of this in one of my Luxe Boxes, and at first it wasn't too bad, but the more I used it the less I liked it.
First, it most defiantly does not double lashes. It lengthens okay but doesn't provide quite enough volume for my liking. I do like the style of the brush though; it's a conical wire brush and it does reach pretty much every lash. Overall, not the best choice mascara for me. Oh, and it ran really easily. Just the bit of tearing from yawning and it would smudge. Not so cute.

This mascara has a relatively wet formula. I find that with my thin lashes, it didn't really do anything. With a few coats it makes my lashes noticeably better but it never holds a curl with no more than a coat. The brush is huge yet its not a problem for me. I would not recommend it especially for the price. With one coat though, it gives me natural looking lashes that are acceptable. I noticed smudging in the summer heat but it was never anything too bad. It comes off quite easily with makeup remover. It is an average mascara overall but there are lots of better ones on the market for a much lower price.

I was really disappointed with this mascara. It doesn't double my lashes at all. In fact I see little improvement to my lashes other than the colour changing a bit. It has a tendency to clump the lashes together. Not sure if that is what Clinique meant when they promised that the lashes are thickened but it is most definitely not an effect I was after. Several coats can make the mascara look nice but it doesn't help as this mascara ends up leaving mascara smudges all under my eyes in no time. Never had a mascara run this much. I know it is not waterproof but still...I look better not wearing the mascara then have it all over my face. It is so not worth the money in my opinion.

I also got this product in a bonus gift. Clinique makes a good mascara and this one did not disappoint me. What I like about Clinique mascara is that is tends not to clump. This is a very good product. However, there are many good mascara's at the drugstore for about half the price so, while I enjoy the bonuses, I would recommend saving a few pennies in favor of a Maybelline or Cover Girl mascara that will give you better bang for the buck.

I received this mascara through their bonus event and was happy to try out the sample. It's a very light - barely there - type of mascara. I found it left my lashes almost shorter looking than normal. It was very smooth on the lashes and didn't leave them with a crusty feeling. It washes off easily and doesn't leave black marks around my eyes. If the mascara was thicker I'd definitely buy it again, but it just didn't impress me to pay full price for it.

I got a sample of this mascara when I bought Clinique's 3 step skin system a while back, and I loved it. I'm not someone who usually pays a lot for mascara...and for a student living on their own, yea its a little pricey, but it does work great.

What I love about this mascara is the length that it gives you. What I find different in this one then all the others I find is that this mascara makes your lashes look long and dark, without stiffing them together or looking fake. The wand is easy to get to the little lashes, and deposits the most mascara at the bottom where it should to create fullness.

As much as I love this product, it does still have its minor set backs. The formula for example, does go on very wet and is easy to smudge if you blink too quickly, although it does dry fairly quick. Secondly, coming from a brand known to care for its sensitive skin, if i wear it more that 3 days in a row it does give me very sore red and flaky skin in the outer corners of my eyes, which then from there after makes any makeup hurt.

All in all, this mascara is good for those with sensitive skin for a less than daily use. It looks great, but it can be tricky to get right because of its wet formula. If you have the money, and are looking for a high quality mascara I would recommend this as it gives similar results as Diorshow mascara, which in my experience is a little more pricey but just as effective.

If you have a question feel free to ask me!

I have a fair number of allergies and I am allergic to numerous brands and types of makeup and fragrances. Clinique is one of the brands that I have found I can wear. Mascara, in particular, seems to be problematic for me - some brands make me want to scratch my eyes right out of my head within 10 minutes. However, when I wear Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara, I can wear it for the whole day (about 16 hours) and not be bothered with my allergic symptoms. Hooray! The other benefit is that it can be removed well with mild eye makeup removers, and it makes your lashes gorgeous, of course! I cannot recommend this mascara enough!

The only thing I liked about this mascara was the uniquely shaped brush!! The way it comes to a point at the tip makes it easy to get the little lashes in the inner corner.

I'm glad I got it as a free sample, and didn't pay $20 for it, that's for sure. It's supposed to thicken your lashes and it didn't.. at all.. it didn't even add length. The only thing it did was make them black, not impressed at all. I'm sticking to my Lash Blast Length!!!
