Makes eyes pop

I have long thick lashes (thanks to LiLash serum) and this stuff is amazing, but the price of it is not.

It separates and lengthens lashes without getting clumpy, and the colour is very black which is great. It does what it says it does, but at that price I won't be buying it again (would definitely use it again if I didn't have to fork out for it).

I wasn't blown away by it and I can't justify paying that price for something that I use maybe once a week (i'm a nursing student, so nothing glam going on here). I feel that there are much more affordable products out there that do exactly the same job if not better.

Great but not long lasting

Such a nice bold colour and looks great initially, doesn't cause clumping but as the day wears on I do find it to look a bit smudged. I do rub my eyes fairly often without being aware. I like it but for the price and effect will not be racing to re purchase

Pretty foolproof

I have skittish eyes after a childhood of eye drops, so applying mascara tends to be hazardous. This isn't too bad, though! I can remove any clumps pretty easily with a couple of strokes, and it dries quickly.

Unfortunately, this isn't remotely tear-proof. If I'm going to a sad movie I can't even think about wearing it - and it's currently my only mascara. Next time I'll try to find something more waterproof.

There is a waterproof formulation of this mascara, FYI.

Alright

I was hoping this would just be a non-waterproof version of the "High Impact-Lash Elevating" mascara by Clinique (which I have and is AMAZING) but it's not quite as good. It is a deep black colour which I really like and it definitely coats the base really well but it doesn't extend to the tips the way the lash elevating one does and I wouldn't say it's volumising. It is pretty though, lengthens, separates and doesn't clump.

Tips: Clinique is a pricer brand so if you are going to splurge on a mascara I would recommend the lash elevating one over this one.

Not especially high impact

I have had several tubes of this over the years, and have just finished one now with another two in the stash. It's a favourite product for Clinque to include in their GWPs hence why I have accumulated so many.

The brush is quite big but not enormous. I find it gets a good amount of product on and distributes it well. I don't seem to get any clumps with this mascara which is good. However, once it has gone through the 'too wet' stage, as all mascaras do, it is really good for a bit and gives nice length and volume. However quite soon after that it dries up a bit more and becomes much more of a natural looking mascara which is not very 'high impact'.

Bottom line is I will keep using those in my stash but probably wouldn't buy.

High Impact Mascara

This is a consistent mascara although it is meant to be high impact I found it's density the same as general use mascaras. I had to apply quite heavily to obtain what I would call a high density look.

Tips: Apply at least 3 coats to obtain density of colour on lshes.

Lengthening, not volumising

So I already have quite long lashes but very sparse and laking in volume. This is a great mascara at lengthening, separating and doesn't clump but it simply doesn't volumise enough for me!

It's a great every day mascara and removal is super easy!

I won't repurchase though - I think the Maybelline Sky High is much better and only a fraction of the price!

Goodie Bag Sample

I got a couple of sample sachets in a Clinique Goodie Bag I received when I went to the Shaaanxo Clinique meet up event last year. I have been using this mascara for the past 2 months.

The sample size I got was 3.5ml and is so cute in its dark green packaging. The brush is a decent size. I find that it works really well at lengthening and giving my lashes volume. I always do 2 coats and am super happy with the end result.

The only reason I won't be repurchasing is due to the animal testing status of the company.

Mediocre at best

This mascara gets alot of hype and for the price you pay I expected it to be amazing but it's just average at that, the brush is nothing amazing and the formula is too wet for my liking (as is my experience with all Clinique mascaras) and is prone to leaving marks just under my brow bone and under the eyes after application, takes quite along time to dry and takes alot more fuss than I need in the morning for such a pricey product.

Not a winner for me

I received a mini version of this as part of a Clinique GWP. The brush applicator looked promising, it is of the natural bristle variety and looks like it would give you lots of volume. Unfortunately this did nothing for my lashes, gave me no volume, only a little length and didn't hold a curl very well. I also found that it flaked off my lashes somewhat throughout the day. After a couple of uses I have thrown this one out- lifes too short for a bad mascara!

This one is hugely popular but unfortunately did not work for my lashes so wouldn't personally recommend it.
