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.

    This should no longer be called the “original” telescopic mascara. The formula has changed. It now flakes and is not removable with soap based products. I have worn this for 10 years. Very disappointed because there is nothing else that compares to your original product.

    (waterproof black) i have very straight lashes that point downward and this is the only mascara i’ve had that actually holds the curl in my lashes and has them looking full all day until i take it off. it can sometimes be hard to remove but if you use liquid oil free makeup remover or a makeup melting balm it’ll come right off!

    Best drugstore mascara EVER

    5 out of 5 stars
    AlizaQ - 22 days ago
    originally posted on lorealparisusa.com
    I have literally used hundreds of drugstore mascaras over the years. Out of the handful I have liked, they all were discontinued not long after launching which gets very frustrating. Except this one. It has been around for decades and that says that sales are through the roof and it is no wonder why! This mascara rivals many mascaras I have used that cost five times as much. It applies easily, and quickly gives a beautiful clump free lengthening effect. It has a very little volume, but for me I only really need length. And it does not look spidery or fake, the look it gives is flawless but natural. I absolutely love it and have been wearing it for years. I wish the waterproof version was as good - but as many waterproof versions do, it lacked the length and/or volume of the original. Love, love, love this and the price!

    Everyone always hypes this up but tbh it’s not that good. If you put it on normally, it all clumps up at the bottom. When you brush your lashes as your close your eyes though it looks pretty good until it falls. My lashes normally hold a curl great without any mascara so idk just not the best

    Lexi - 28 days ago
    originally posted on lorealparisusa.com
    The Telescopic formula has recently changed making it incredibly clumpy and dry. It does not build well AT ALL like it used to. It’s not even a similar formula. I really thought I got a bad batch. This was my holy grail mascara for the past 15 or so years and now I can’t even use the mascara. I have recommended this mascara to friends and family over the years and they have said the exact same and have all discontinued using. Not to mention, this formula has made my eyelashes fall out and has irritated my skin. PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD FORMULA!!!!!!

    I really wanted to like this mascara but I did not enjoy it as much as my cheaper one. Even though the wand is skinny, it doesn’t do much for your lashes. You gotta have naturally curly long lashes for this one to work. Even though it’s waterproof, it didn’t keep my eyelashes curled AT ALL.

    Hello Just another mom, we appreciate you reaching out about L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Original Mascara. We recommend trying Voluminous Panorama Waterproof Mascara. A longwear, volumizing mascara that delivers a thick, fanned-out lash look — making eyes look so much bigger. The formula is clump resistant, flake resistant, smudge resistant and wears beautifully for up to 24 hours. We hope you give it a try!

    Such a perfect mascara, doesn’t clump and makes your eyelashes 10x longer. I recommend a darker shade for a brunette because it will make your lashes pop.
