L'Oreal Paris Paradise Mascara Reviews

I got this product in the vault. I'm very good at cycling my mascara's so knew I'd be needing a new one shortly. This mascara is great at giving a dark and dramatic lash look with just one light application, and it is buildable if you want an evening/event look. It has good staying power, but I am an eye rubber, so I got a little bit of panda eye through the day. Not terrible, but it was noticeable to me.

The product does tend to dry out quite quickly - so I've found after 3 months use, it's too clumpy to use now.

A good price, and great results. It's one of the better mascara's I've used in this price range.

When first applying this mascara I noticed an immediate change in the length of my lashes, they were noticeably longer, great, it's already doing what it said it would do, however I did notice the formula was a little bit thick which resulted in some minor clumping. I tried the mascara again with just one coat and success, no clumping, but another problem appeared, my lashes were not as defined as I usually like, they looked great for an all natural look however I like my lashes to be a bit darker, so I percivared with the clumps (when I say 'clumps' they were not horrendous, probably only noticiable if you were directly face to face with me, but I could see them every time I saw my own reflection). A few minutes after application I touched by lashes, they felt hard and stiff however as time went on wearing the mascara this eventually dissipated. Over all I think this mascara 100% does what it says it will do, my lashes were definitely longer, I just wish the formula was a little bit smoother. I originally thought this would be a special occasion only mascara, however as it tends to suit a more natural look this may become my everyday office mascara.

I have short, sparse eyelashes with 0 curl so I'm always on the hunt for the best mascara I can get my hands on and the Paradise is pretty up there.

The packaging was nice, did the job, but nothing to write home about.

The wand was easy to use without smearing mascara everywhere (always a plus) and did a great job of separating lashes - I'm not a fan of clumpy looks and this definitely avoided that.

The formula did a great job of thickening and lengthening the appearance of my lashes. It didn't add much curl at all, but paired with a lash curler I was very happy with the look of my lashes - long, voluminous, and nicely separated.

It also definitely stuck to their claim of no flaking or smudging, so overall I'm very happy with its performance.

This mascara was brilliant and made my lashes look fab,

Definitely cute colours and I loved the wand that came with it

although I would prefer waterproof as I found it did flake off if I accidentally rubbed my eyes which then caused me problems.

I was lucky to be able to try out L'Oreal Paris Paradise Mascara. I love applying mascara on my lashes because I have short lashes and I want to make it longer a bit and make it standout a bit. I love the formula of this mascara because with just one layer it already looks stunning! My lashes curls lasts a day without going down which I love.

L'Oreal Paris Paradise Mascara dries faster than other mascara so it doesn't smudge to my lids when I apply it. The only thing I noticed is there's a bit of clumping when you apply 2 layers of it but that's fine with me because one layer is already enough to lengthen and volumise my lashes.

I found this mascara to be a good performer. It made my lashes thick and long. You have to be a bit careful if you do too many coats, as can start to get a little clumpy. I think that about 2 coats works really well and was very satisfied with how it looked with the 2 coats.

I didn't think I would like this for some reason but I really do.

It definitely has a Better Than Sex feel to it. The packaging and wand definitely reminded me of BTS. I think this formula is waaaay better though, it's not as clumpy or quite so wet and doesn't smudge so easily on me.

I even put this mascara on my bottom lashes thinking that it would almost certainly smudge during the day. I never wear bottom lash mascara because of this. However it managed to last the whole day!

While it stays on well, I didn't find it too difficult to remove which is good because you don't want to be scrubbing at your eyes.

I would say it is volumising and lengthening. It does everything I need in a mascara.

The only reason I've marked down sightly is because a product that is from a brand that tests on animals could never be perfect to me. It's 2019, there is no need to test on animals!

I was so blown away with this product, I have been using the Too Faced better than sex (non-waterproof) mascara, and I have heard that this L'Oreal one is considered a dupe. It gave me the exaaaact same results as I get from Too Faced, yet this one is so much more affordable! It is also slightly easier to apply, it doesn't require as much time to cover all the lashes. The thing that I enjoyed most about this product is the fact that it is much nicer to remove. I don't like using too much product or pressure on my eyes because: 1 they are sensitive and I can get eczema on my eyes from too much harsh product on my eyes, and 2 who wants to rub their eyes vigorously every night and potentially cause more fine lines around their eyes. This mascara came off so much nicer with my gentle cleanser, and didn't leave me with the dreaded panda eyes. There was no flaking, no clumping or smudging, and the dramatic effect was 100% there. Definitely buying again.

I was super excited when Beauty Review asked me to trial this mascara because mascara is one of my favourite cosmetics to use! That being said, I also have very high expectations and am very fussy when it comes mascara. I know what I like and I tend to alternate between 2 different brands which I consider my holy grails.

Let’s start with the packaging. To be honest, I thought a box inside of another form of box was a little excessive but I liked the copper/rose gold tube itself and thought it looked quite luxe.

The wand is a thick hourglass shape which I don’t normally like but this one is surprisingly easy to manoeuvre around the eye and does a great job coating every individual lash.

The first time I was used it, I was a little disappointed as I didn’t notice much difference in my lashes after one coat but 2 coats was definitely much better! However over the next couple of days as it “dried out” a little, I was pleasantly surprised by the intensity of the colour, length and volume that were added to my lashes. I still prefer 2 coats but I like my lashes to be bold and voluminous!

This mascara claims to provid intense volume and spectacular long lashes which I agree which for the most part, for me that takes two coats which isn’t too much of a hassle. My lashes look thick and luscious with no clumping which is a big tick for me. The formula also contains castor oil which is supposed to make your lashes feel feather soft without any flaking and I would also mostly agree with this. I haven’t noticed any difference in the texture of my lashes but I haven’t had any fall out when removing my makeup and the only flaking I’ve experienced is when I’ve been wearing my glasses which isn’t unusual for me as I’ve been blessed with naturally long lashes and they always rub against the lenses!

Another huge bonus for me is that this mascara DOES NOT SMUDGE on my lower lash line! Hallelujah!

All in all, I was pleasantly surprised by this mascara. Its lived up to its claims and it’s just as good as similar mascaras from “high end” brands but for a fraction of the price. I would like the formula to be a little thicker to avoid having to double coat but that’s a personal preference and I’m sure many people would be impressed with the results after one coat! A slightly slimmer wand would probably make this a ten out of ten in my book.

Definitely give this one a try if you are in the market for a new mascara that makes your lashes look bomb and reach for the heavens!

I saw this in Farmers and was drawn to the beautiful packaging - rose gold with a twenties font vibe. But it's mascara - and as we all know, they're very hit and miss. After loitering in the beauty department, reading reviews on BR on my phone I decided it was well worth a punt!

It promises length and volume, and it does deliver. I can't be bothered with mascaras that take more than one coat so I was really happy that one coat was enough for a lovely lash line. It's not too dramatic, but is a bit more than my-lashes-but-better.

I liked that the brush easily seperated my lashes, and it seemed to catch most of them in the one pass. It was easy to use the brush on both the top and bottom lashes.

I think the price is good, plus you can always find L'Oreal on special somewhere.
