Q: Does it smudge on people who wear around eye moisturizer? Thanks.

submitted by sunshine - 4 years ago
  • A: Hi Summer! The essence Lash Princess False Lash Effect Mascara has a long lasting formula that leaves lashes free from flaking, fading or wear. Hope this helps :)

  • A: I've not had that issue and I'm wearing moisturizer plus sunscreen under my eyes. I don't think you'll have any issues with this. I would suggest keeping a lash comb near by as it can go on clumpy a bit. Overall, really good for a budget mascara!

    submitted byGTO Mama - 4 years ago
  • A: it is super clumpy for me and I never wear any other makeup just mascara and it smudges for no reason and I never touch my eyes so idk what it is but yea

Q: I purchased this multiple times and it was completely sealed with a wrapper. This time there is no wrapper why are some wrapped and some unwrapped?

submitted by Lynn - 5 months ago
  • A: Me too! I came on here to try and figure out why this was the case, as both of my mascaras came without a seal. I think I will return them. I’m just not comfortable with it or convinced someone didn’t open it previously.

Q: Is this mascara longwearing? I have oily skin and dont want it to rub off under my eyes.

submitted by targetlover - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi there! This is a great mascara for length and volume but does not specifically have a long wear claim. I would suggest the waterproof version of this as it does not budge!

Q: my mascara came completely unsealed - no plastic wrapper. I have never seen mascaras to be sold this way- this seems entirely unhygenic. Is this hwo it was meant to be sold?

Q: What is the best eye makeup remover to use with this (lotion, cream, etc.)? I have sensitive eyes and find this is still on after using my eye makeup remover. Thanks!

submitted by GTO Mama - 4 years ago
  • A: Hi GTO Mama! We would recommend trying a micellar water. Apply it first to a cotton pad or round, and then use to remove the mascara. They are typically very gentle and work well. hope this helps!

Q: is this waterproof?

submitted by Scorpius24 - 5 years ago
  • A: this one is not waterproof but we do have a waterproof version. the waterproof version has blue accents on the packaging instead of the green accents on this one and should say waterproof at the end of the product title. hope that helps!

It’s just okay- I heard rave reviews on Tik Tok so I picked this up and it didn’t impress me. I already have long lashes and it just acted as a basic mascara, I can’t imagine how it would have performed for short lashes, definitely not worth the hype. It also smudges like crazy and is difficult to remove…It’s not bad for $4.99 but I wouldn’t repurchase.

It gives both volume and length, if you are on a budget it gives you all that you need. I probably will purchase the waterproof one because it does melt off onto you eyelids.

Works surprisingly well for the price point! I was a little bit worried about how well it work work, but my lashes were the longest and most clump free they'd been in a long time! If you are looking to save money, and want your lashes to be on point, you should definitely try this!!

Mine was bone dry upon arrival. It was brand new and had not expired yet so it doesn't make sense. I didn't want to risk buying yet another one to run into the same problem, because this was my first time trying it.

i saw this product go viral and was immediately interested because i’m CRAZY about big, thick lashes and i needed something for the days i didn’t want to do a full face. this mascara did that and so much more. I also started using the lash serum by grande lash MD and it’s been absolutely incredible so that compared to this mascara has changed my eyes like permanently (in a good way lol!)

I purchased this mascara based on a social media post. I thought it was worth the risk since it is inexpensive. Don’t purchase if you tend to get mascara smudges under your eyes - I had mascara creep under both eyes as the day wore on. I tried it a couple of days just to give it a chance but I had the same results each time. It went in the trash.
