Q: What is the difference between ‘carbon black’ and the other black shade?

submitted by Kate - 16 days ago
  • A: Hi there Kate, great question! How many different blacks does a mascara need to come in? 'Carbon Black' is formulated with an ultra-concentrated, pure black pigment designed to give you a much deeper, more intense, and dramatic color payoff. This mascara also comes in “Blackest Black”, which is a step down from Carbon Black in intensity. And then there’s our standard “Black” shade, which features a slightly softer or more classic tone and is the least intensive of the 3 black shades.

    Black residue on eyelids

    I wanted to love. Gives good length and volume but rubs off on my eyelids leaving a black residue. Also very hard to remove.
    1 reply from L'OrealParisProductExpert team - 22 days ago
    Hi there! We're so glad you loved the length it gave your lashes, but we're so sorry to hear about the residue on your eyelids and the difficult removal—that’s definitely not the experience we want you to have! Transfer onto the eyelids can sometimes happen depending on eye shape or natural oils, but dusting a little translucent powder around the eye area can help lock everything in place. If you ever find a mascara tough to remove, using a gentle, oil-based eye makeup remover makes taking it off a breeze. We truly value your feedback and will share it with our product team!

    Wow I can see why people like this mascara this one works like a high end makeup brand! Wow I’m impressed I usually use maybelline but wanted to try something different and seen the positive reviews and how it’s a best seller and I can see why. Love how amazing this mascara made my lashes and the waterproof is on point I have very oily eyelids year round cause I have hooded eye lid type so I only wear mascara if I wear eyeliner it looks bad and eyeshadow just gets hidden as well. This mascara gives the lift I need to make my eyes appear bigger and looking gorgeous. I hope this mascara never gets discontinued!

    not a fan, flakes off all day
    1 reply from L'OrealParisProductExpert team - 1 month ago
    Hello Natasha! We are sorry to hear that the Telescopic Original Lengthening Mascara - 935 Carbon Black flaked throughout the day. To help minimize flaking and keep your lashes looking fresh, a helpful tip is to gently wipe any excess product off the tip of the brush before application and apply just one or two light coats, allowing the formula to set between layers. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience with us, and we will gladly pass your feedback along to our product development team.

    Lives up to its name

    This is the most waterproof nonirritating mascara I have ever used. I got soaked in the rain and it didn't smudge. I cried yesterday 8/3/26 and it didn't smudge. it's almost TOO waterproof because sometimes it won't even come off with waterproof eye makeup remover. 10/10.

    Not it, for a Natural Look

    Covers the lashes amazingly, but clumps them together too. Doesn’t suit the natural look, that I prefer.
    1 reply from L'OrealParisProductExpert team - 1 month ago
    Hello Cyn! We appreciate your feedback and love that you enjoy the dramatic coverage of our iconic Telescopic Mascara, though we hear your concern regarding lash clumping when aiming for a soft, natural look. Because the precision brush is designed with flat sides to deposit a high amount of lengthening formula right at the lash line, it can deposit more mascara than desired if you prefer subtle definition. A great pro tip to achieve a beautifully separated, natural look is to wipe any excess formula off the comb onto a tissue before application, then use the comb's fine teeth to sweep upward through your lashes to instantly lengthen and separate every single hair without clumping.

    GARBAGE

    This is a horrible mascara. If you are one of the girls who have lashes who don't hold up when curl them and add mascara then DO NOT BUY THIS. It gets clumpy and is heavy on the lashes. It is very wet and drys slow so I can't add another layer . But if you add another layer it's too dry and won't look good. I DO NOT recommend this product.
