l'Oreal paris telescopic mascara
love this mascara, the application brush is very specific, brush side or flat side. flat side applies more mascara, brush easily covers top lashes.

Too watery, too messy, doesn't curl or do anything for me. The wand design is kind of weird too. I'm going back to Lash Paradise

Hello Ss46! It is disappointing to hear that the Telescopic Lift Mascara did not provide the effortless lift and definition you were expecting. This mascara features a unique dual-sided wand that requires a specific two-step technique to achieve the best results without the mess. We suggest first using the front hook bristles to load the lashes from root to tip, and then turning the wand to use the side hook bristles to comb through and separate each lash for maximum lift. If the formula feels too fluid during application, wiping any excess product off the wand onto a tissue before you begin can provide much better control and help the mascara set more quickly. While we are sorry this particular innovation wasn't a perfect match, we are happy to know that the plush, feathery volume of our Lash Paradise remains a favorite in your beauty collection. Ensuring your lashes are completely dry and free of any oils before starting your application will help any formula adhere better and provide a cleaner finish that lasts all day.

Won't buy again
I hate the brush. I poke myself in the eye frequently and still can’t get the look I want. Formula is so dry too

I was hopeful.
This was my first time using this product and am very disappointed. I donr care for the brush design, the back of tge brush holds goofy, dried product. It does not go on smoothly and leave think, uneven productt.

Formula change?
I’ve been using this for awhile now and not sure if I’d try it again. It’s usually my favorite but this last tube purchase was awful. It does nothing almost like it’s dried up.

Read Directions on Back
You won’t even need your eyelash curler if you follow the directions on the back and do more than one swipe.

Love how it makes my lashes long and thick and when they say waterproof it definitely is. Not like cover girl bought a few waterproof mascara from them and was very disappointed. I got water on my face and the mascara ran was all over my face. But loreal is great product always get complements on my lashes. I get asked if they are my real lashes.

Will not be buying this again
I like L’Oreal telescopic mascara, but this mascara clumped and went on thick no matter what I did to try to thin it out. I did not like the brush at all, either. It did not evenly apply the product and pulled on my lashes. It was hard to remove even though it was not waterproof. I will not be buying this again.

THE BEST TELESCOPIC VARIATION
Best volumizing and lifting mascara ever. Goes on so quickly. I have long but boneless lashes and this makes me look like I have lash extensions!!!

Sadly disappointed
Unfortunately I cannot use this. It's very goopy. I've had good luck in the past with L'Oreal mascara but not this one. I'll try to give away otherwise I'll have to throw away. So disappointed.

Utter trash
Utter trash! Do not do this. It is either clumped up or if you wipe a bunch off to prevent the clumps it does nothing. It dries in a way that is crispy and there will be no 2nd coat because of it. Not a fan!

Nearly flawless
As someone who’s tried several waterproof mascaras, this is one of the best. The wand is unique in the fact that you can apply and use the side to comb through the lashes for a brushed out look. The only reason it gets one star off is it can get a little clumpy, but still much less than other brands I’ve used.

This product delivers!
I love this product! I am 73 years old and i find that this product really makes my lashes pop and the applicator allows for so much more control in applying this mascara. No clumps or messy brushes. All my other mascaras are going into the trash. I have found THE ONE!

Waste of money
Bought this for my daughter and myself to each try one as we love the telescopic original. We were both disappointed in this mascara. Hate the wand and the mascara is thick and clumpy. Would love to have it replaced with the original telescopic. Feels like a waste of money.

Like L'Oreal Mascara
I haven't used this version yet, this 4 stars and based on my past experience with a previous version. A younger colleague turned me on to this Telescopic Lift mascara a little over a year ago and I liked using it very much. Stayed put during the day/eve and easily came off with micellar water. Hope this 36 Hour version performs the same.
