Holy hype!
I have heard about the L’Oreal Carbon Black mascara eleventy-billion times on
YouTube. So, when the coupons aligned for a L’Oreal Saving Series, I had to pick up this
mascara.
Claims:
- Dramatic looking volume
- Thickens and builds lashes
- Full lash look
- Virtually no flakes, smudges or clumps
- Ingredients leave lashes supple and soft
- Removes easily with water
The
packaging is pretty standard black and gold plastic. The brush is a natural
bristle brush as opposed to plastic. The price is pretty standard for a
drugstore mascara ($7-9).
I would say
that this mascara is worth the hype and holds up to most of its claims. It
definitely added volume to my lashes, but still looked natural. It also
lengthens the appearance of my lashes and held a curl all day long. This
mascara has fantastic staying power—14+ hours later it looks like it did when I
put it on in the morning. The formula is not to wet or too dry and there is no
fallout or flaking and minimal clumping.
The only
claim I would say it does not live up to is that it removes easily with water,
I do not find this to be true (and I don’t find any mascara to remove easily).
I also don’t know if it leaves your lashes supple and soft as I did not test
this claim. My one complaint is actually the brush, it is just too big. I find
that I get mascara on my brow bone every time I apply this mascara because the
brush is so big. Other than that this is an awesome mascara!
I hope you are enjoying Drugstore Week so far!
