Description

L’Oreal Paris' Iconic Telescopic Original Washable Mascara delivers extreme length and ultimate definition for up to 70% longer lashes and up to 24 HR wear. The specially designed Precision Brush catches every lash for instant separation. This lightweight formula coats lashes in one stroke for clump-free, smudge-resistant, and flake-resistant results. Fragrance-free. Ophthalmologist-tested. Suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.

Place the brush at the base of lashes and gently sweep up to tip. Pair with L’Oreal Paris Telescopic Precision Long Lasting Liquid Eyeliner for dramatic definition. Removes easily with makeup remover.

Never pump your mascara wand, as this adds air to the mascara container, which will make your mascara dry out faster.

  • A: I second this- I’ve used this mascara for over a decade and this is the first time I’m having trouble removing it with makeup remover. It’s irritating my eyes because I have to rub so much to get it off

    submitted byTarget123 - 9 months ago
  • A: You just have to be sure to get the Original Telescopic, the one with the black spoolie (not the pink spoolie which means you're choosing other colors and not the waterproof version of the Telescopic)

    My daughter loves this mascara because it doesn’t leave clumps, her eyelashes look long, full and beautiful. It’s easy to remove with make up remover, it lasts all day and it doesn’t leave residue. The only complaint is that it dries really quickly but other than that it does a fantastic job.

    Don't like the brush

    I bought this for the first time because it's a safe, non toxic product, but, do not care for the applicator brush. Use the flat side to apply and the brush to separate... It goes on clumpy and the brush just adds to the mess. I tried wiping some product off the brush but still and up with clumpy eyelashes.

    Bring Back the Original

    I’ve been using L'Oréal mascara for over 30 years. My mom started me on the Voluminous line when I was 16. I’ve been loyal ever since. When L'Oréal Telescopic Mascara launched, it became my absolute favorite. It lengthened, lifted, and separated my lashes better than anything else. I no longer found myself reaching for a safety pin to separate my lashes. I recommended it to everyone. Unfortunately, something has changed. The wand now feels flimsy and doesn’t insert smoothly into the tube. In addition the formula is not the same. It clumps and flakes throughout the day, which never used to happen. I’ve tried many other mascaras over the years, but I always came back to this one. My tried and true favorite. Well until now. Please consider bringing back the original wand and formula. It was perfect, and those of us who have loved it for decades can absolutely tell the difference.

    Definitely worth the hype!

    This mascara is really good!! The length is insane and it lasts all day. I also like the wand it’s easier for my personally to work with rather that a fat or curved wand I do layer it with a bit of another mascara to get some volume because it only gives length but I have no complaints. I would say it’s easy to remove just take a nice hot shower and take it off at the end when it’s loosened up. The only thing I don’t like is that I waited to long to try it! The girlies werent lying about this one

    This mascara definitely lifts and lengthens my lashes, however the bristles are too short and cause significant clumping and it’s hard to remove even with makeup remover.

    Great concept but poor product

    Really wanted to like this because the packaging is so cute it’s like an actual telescope. But the brush is so tiny and when applying my lashes were lengthened but instantly clumpy even after only 1 pass. Also instantly transferred so I wouldn’t recommend

    Hi there! Thank you for reaching out about our L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Original Lengthening Mascara. We really wanted you to love it, too! While we’re glad the packaging caught your eye, it’s disappointing to hear the precision brush led to clumping and transfer rather than the clean length we intended. Your feedback on the formula and application is incredibly helpful, and we’ll be sharing these details with our product team. Thank you for your honesty and for giving it a try!

    To thick

    I loved my first tube! Was so excited to get another. I don’t know if something changed or what but I hate it now. It goes on so thick and clumps my lashes so bad. It’s such a fight and I kept my old wand to my other tube just incase it was the wand but no. I’m very disappointed
    1 reply from LeCare team - 14 days ago
    Hello! We truly value your support and are so sorry to hear that your experience with your second tube of Telescopic Original Mascara has been so disappointing. It is never our intention for a favorite product to feel like a fight to apply, and we have shared your specific feedback regarding the thick and clumpy application directly with our product development team. While we always strive to maintain the high-quality integrity of our original formulas, we understand how frustrating it is when the results aren't what you expect! To help achieve that signature lash-by-lash separation, we suggest ensuring the brush is wiped of any excess product before application. We hope you find your next favorite lash look with L'Oréal Paris!

    I spent years buying an expensive mascara at a department store before finding little tube of mascara magic! This works every bit as good as the $34 mascara I used to buy! Lengthens my lashes and doesn't flake! The hype is real with this one!
