L'Oreal Paris Lash Paradise Mascara Reviews

Thanks to BR for this trial :) Right off the bat let me say I am SO fussy when it comes to Mascaras, it literally needs to tick every single box for me to make it a staple - or I don't bother. Lets say I am up for trying mascaras and am on the look out for something affordable but does the jobs.

I have quite a few musts which include it must give me a natural look, it extends my lashes but not too much, easy to apply, I prefer waterproof but if its not I need to know it won't smudge under my eyes, easy to remove, doesn't clump.. OK thats alot!

This one claims to give intense extra black volume, spectacular long lashes, pleasure to apply and suited for sensitive eyes.

I like to test a product out before reading the claims to get my own thoughts on the product without any other influence and the things I noticed instantly was that yes it was easy and felt "nice" to apply, I noticed how my eyes weren't sensitive to the product and noticed it gave me a really natural look. I see on the box it has gentle oils in the ingredients.

Though it gave me a natural look, it wasn't intense as claimed on the packaging. It didn't extend my lashes too much either, I had to go over my lashes about 5times to get length.

Unfortunately I won't use this again as only after a couple of hours it left black marks under my eyes (which to me is the #1 box it must not do), it did this too on application of one layer. I noticed too that it was quite difficult to remove off my eyes with makeup oil and micellar water - my skin felt pulled from trying to remove it. Even after removal I had marks under my eyes when I woke up in the morning.

Sorry guys won't be using this one again!

First impressions - I love the rose gold gold case, very cute packaging! I found the brush to be quite thick (I prefer curved mascara brushes myself) and as a result it was hard to get super close to the lash line. The brush collects a fair bit of product which I found I had to wipe against the top of the container before using otherwise there was too much. The mascara is a thick consistency so I had to be careful not too apply too much otherwise the lashes clump together. I like to layer mascara for a more dramatic look but I think layering too much of this product would leave me with spider lashes! But the end result was fine - my lashes look perfectly nice. I did notice a little bit of smudging underneath my eyes throughout the day, so it is not totally smudge proof.

All in all I’ll continue to use this product until it runs out but I wouldn’t be in a rush to purchase it again.

This didnt take me to paradise! It was okay and not clumpy. Worked pretty good on bottom lashes as well. I have few and short eyelashes and it wasnt life changing for me. I prefer a smaller brush to ensure they all get coated. I loved the branding and packaging such a beautiful colour in your make bag. Easy to find as it isnt the usual neutral or black . The price point is ok, I think I would prefer to try the waterproof mascara especially in winter. I had no leaking mishaps however haha!

I didntnreally.like the brush on this as much as others. I'm liking more a fat brush at the moment for big lashes and this formula was bit clumpy for my liking.

This mascara does what it says it does - but I felt disappointed as I expected more definition and more volume. I used the mascara by itself and not with a lash primer - it might give more definition when used with a primer?! Mascara did not transfer onto my face or become flaky throughout the day which is a win… an average buy for me.

I was in need of a new mascara, so I decided to read through reviews on BR before purchasing. The L'Oreal Paris Lash Paradise had really great reviews, so I decided I would give it a try.

L'Oreal isn't a brand I generally reach for, but I had fairly high expectations given the reviews I read.

Prices online range anywhere from about $20 - $30.

Now I really wish that I could say I loved it, but for me, this product is just average.

I found that it can be a bit clumpy, and really doesn't do anything to give 'volume or intense length'. The 'intense black' is a nice deep black - if that makes sense. But other than that, there was certainly no 'wow' for me. I've used better mascaras in the same price bracket, and I wouldn't rush out to purchase it again.

First of all, I would just like to address a few comments I've seen online (elsewhere, not here!) comparing this to the Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara, some comments even saying it is a "copycat". The only similarity is the colour of the component. The wand and formula are both very different. Lash Paradise actually has quite a dry formula, which I know a lot of people actually prefer. I personally find it easier and less messy to work with a dryer formula. I didn't find it particularly volumizing or lengthening to be honest. I found it to be quite a light, subtle effect. I think it does a good job of separating the lashes and it isn't clumpy. I did experience the tiiiniest bit of flaking under my eyes, but not enough to deter me from using it again. I will continue to use and and I think I might experiment with using it in conjunction with my other mascaras to see if I can get more volume or length going, but still enjoy the lash separation I get from Lash Paradise. Removal was fairly easy. Didn't have to do anything extra or special to remove it all.

Thank you for the opportunity to try this. This did what it said in the sense that it did not cause itchiness of my eyes, which was a definite plus for me as I have found a lot of mascaras are now causing this with my eyes. It also offered great volumizing and lengthening and did not flake or smudge - another great plus! Unfortunately though I found it did clump on a few occasions and I believe the applicator needs a pointed tip to enable easier application of lashes in the corners of the eyes. Overall though, not a bad mascara :)

I really wanted to love this as it made my lashes look fully and long. Exactly what I hope for in a mascara!

This mascara is a mouse texture and does not start out annoyingly wet like some. I was surprised that this is fragranced so be aware of that if that’s something that concerns you.

The wand reminds me of Too faced Better than sex and since I have eyes on the smaller side I did have to be a bit more carefully then I normally would be. With only a few coats I got the desired looked I hoped for.

Sadly this did not last well for me and throughout the day I had to carefully sweep crumbles away. Over the following days I applied less and still had the same problem.

As a teacher who does not have time to fuss with my make up throughout the day this is a miss for me. I need something that stays out for 12 hours. I will keep using this for shorter make up days as I really did like the way it made my lashes look.
