   First off, I don’t try a lot of mascaras. I’ve been using DiorShow and DiorShow Blackout (they came as a combo together) for the past year or so. I can’t even remember the last mascara I owned before those. I like DS and DSBO which is why I never thought to get a new mascara, but I don’t love them. There’s nothing really wrong with those two mascaras per say, but I always felt like my lashes were missing something.

   I bought this mascara on a whim because I thought it was length that was something my lashes could use. This mascara is GREAT at lengthening! I adore this product because it does what it says. I haven’t had any problems with flakes or anything when wearing this all day. However, lengthening is ALL that this mascara does. Nothing more, nothing less. So I still use DS and DSBO to help add a little volume to my lashes. But this mascara does a great job at lengthening and at not flaking off. I use Lancome eye makeup remover so I don’t have a problem taking it off and I always close the lid tight so I haven’t had it dry out at all. I’ve been considering purchasing the volumizing version of this mascara, however I would like to find a mascara that does both in one. But I will definitely repurchase this until then!

   This mascara is amazing! I have tried and tested MANY mascaras that are out there over the years, both high end and the cheaper brands.
   What I look for is lengthening, as my eyelashes are short and very straight, and I have to say that Nars lengthening mascara is the best! It does exactly what it says, lengthen! Not only does it lengthen, but it keeps your lashes curled all day. 2 coats of this stuff is more than enough.
   It doesn’t irritate my eyes, or flake at all. However, the one drawback to this product is removing it. When I bought it for the first time, I asked the guy if it was a waterproof mascara (as I hate waterproof) and he said no. Looking back, I see he was kind of telling the truth, waterproof mascara is MUCH easier to remove than this stuff!!
   I tried 3 different eye make up removers, and nothing worked, but I have now found a great and cheap way to remove it… baby oil!! If you put a few drops on your finger tips and gently massage around your lashes for a few mins, (it can get a bit messy) then wipe away with make up wipes, you’re good to go! If you find there’s still a little bit left, repeat the process.
   One more negative is that the brush end of the tube is actually a bit longer than the actual mascara end, so you feel a bit cheated as there isn’t as much mascara in there as you thought.
   Still love this product though and will keep buying it. I’ll be devastated if it ever becomes discontinued!!! 🙁

   When i first got this i was in love, i wore it everyday and got a bunch of complements.. then after a while i started noticing my lashed were falling off while i try washing it off. I would have to peal the mascara off and it got really irritading. Now i bearly reach for it or actually i try and avoid using it. Maybe its the fact that i used it everyday, since this mascara will hold your curl and last all day it has a heavy formula. Its not horrible mascara just not an everyday thing. It’ll be great for going out looks though.
