Volume!

I really enjoyed using this mascara. At first I thought it was going to be a 2-step where step one is a white primer/fibre formula but it's not!

You start with a volumising formula and then use a 'booster' on the top for length. And by golly does it lengthen!

I found just one coat of each step ample, you don't need any more than that for thicker, fuller and longer lashes.

I like the tube, both wands have a good flex/resistance and easily zigzag through the lashes.

Would happily repurchase!

Volume +

I am seriously amazed by the L'Oreal Pro XXL Volume Mascara. It out-performs my favourite high end mascara in all ways, and it is undoubtably my new favourite mascara.

I've never used a two-step mascara before and was concerned I would have spider lashes, especially after coating it in the white primer which had them looking very spiky. However, after I applied the black mascara I was left with long, thick, lush looking lashes. They looked fake but in a good way.

Even better, there was no clumping, no smearing, no flaking. The volume and lift lasted throughout the day.

I'm converted.

Really good mascara

This mascara is honestly incredible. It makes me look as though I am wearing false lashes. I am especially impressed with it's volumizing effect which is way better than any mascara I have used before.

The wands are not too big so they are easy to use, and the mascara lasts all day without flaking. This mascara isn't waterproof but personally I prefer that as it is easy to remove when I want to.

Tips: Make sure you cover up all of the white volumizer with the black booster. With poor eyesight it was easy to miss a bit.

No Volume

L'Oreal's Pro XXL Volume mascara claims that it provides an instant 3D volume effect with black booster technology for an intense look. I hoped it would be true …

First step, coat lashes evenly with the white volumising mascara primer to add volume.

Next step, intensify lashes with the black booster technology mascara. The application was simple enough, wiggle the straight wand marked 1 into lashes to build volume. The white primer coats lashes, giving length and volume. Repeat with the curved mascara wand. The shape of this wand gives good coverage and makes it easier to get into the corners.

Did it work? No. The primer didn't give much volume at all, but it did add length. If I waited for the primer to dry before adding mascara, the mascara wand tugged at my lashes and pulled a few of them out. The mascara also took ages to dry, often leaving me with 'spider tracks' under my eyes and panda eyes later on in the day. My first use of the wands made me feel like the tube should have been designed the opposite way around, with the wands in the lids and the product in the body.

Overall, I'm not impressed with this mascara and won't be purchasing any, or recommending it. I dislike having panda eyes, especially when I'm seeing clients all day. I get more volume and staying power from a cheap brand of mascara just by adding extra coats. This primer did nothing for volume but definitely added length, and the awkward tube shape isn't comfortable to use. Unfortunately, this is a no from me.

Tips: Carry cotton buds with you to clean up the frequent panda eyes.

L’Oreal Pro XXL Volume Mascara

I have really enjoyed trialling this mascara. It really does give you great volume. The two step application is great and the primer goes on well, the brush isn’t too big and then the mascara has a great curved brush and application is very easy. The ends on the mascara tube are numbered so you always open the right end of the mascara, great for ease of application. This mascara isn’t waterproof, and I have had some smudges at times. I usually prefer a waterproof mascara, but that aside, this mascara is very easy to wash off at the end of the day. All in all a really good mascara and application is easy. I would buy this mascara and use it on a regular basis.

Nice

Finally recieved this after a long wait and it was definitely worth it! This is the first mascara that doesnt make my eyes red or sting when my eyes water the formula is great little to no clumps. How ever the bottle is a bit odd it will take me some time to get use to it. All in all definitely a mascara that is worth the hype.

L'Oreal Pro XXL Volume Mascara

Thanks for the opportunity to trial this mascara.

As I have never used a primer before, I was quite intrigued. The applicator has a number 1 or 2 on the end to let you know which to start with. The primer goes on white colored and slowly melts away to a clear color. The brush is really nice. It has little bristles with a curve to help with lifting. It is easy to coat every lash without it transferring to your eyelid, and seems to groom your lashes at the same time. I waited a few moments for the primer to set before using the mascara. At this point you are starting to notice the fullness and the length. It was very easy to coat the lashes, again helped by the brush. Immediately you begin to notice the length of your lashes. They looked long, full and lifted as promised.

The length stayed all day! The volume did decrease during the day. Maybe needing a touch up in the afternoon if required. The mascara stayed in placed without smudging until later in the day and removed very easily. I found my lashes felt very soft during and after.

For the price point of the cosmetic, I would say it performed really well and lived up to expectations although touch ups were needed on my slightly hooded eyes, slightly mature eyes!! The brush was a real Hero for me. It is definitely worth a try.

Tips: Wait a few moments for the primer to set before applying the mascara.

Love this mascara!

This is my first experience with a two-step mascara and I really liked it. First you coat your lashes with the primer which is a white substance claiming to lengthen and increase the volume of your lashes. Then you apply the mascara over top of that. I waited until the primer had a chance to dry off a little before applying the mascara (I wasn’t sure if you were meant to do that, there aren’t any instructions and I couldn’t see any guidance online - but it worked for me).

The end result is jet black lashes that really do look longer. I was worried that a volumising mascara would lead to clumps and lumps but that wasn’t the case. Lash definition was excellent.

It lasts all day with no smudging or crumbling and is very easy to apply with a well shaped applicator brush.

My teen daughter, who would love to get eyelash extensions, loves this product too as it’s the closest product she’s found to falsies. High praise!

Tips: Let the primer dry a little bit before applying the mascara.

L'Oreal PRO XXL VOLUME MASCARA

I had such high hopes for this Mascara for it matching up to the volume of one of the best Mascaras I ever used but is no longer available! It looks pretty glam with it's silver casing. This came uncarded, with no instructions, so if you've never used a two-step mascara before, you're on your own figuring out how long to wait between applying the primer and mascara itself. I took a gamble. At least there is a 1 and a 2 on the wand covers. 1.Primer has a straight brush wand. For those never using a lash primer before, this is white and thick, however too thick to get evenly on the brush, which made it hard to apply evenly on lashes. After several goes at gently moving the brush inside so as not to get clumps, application was sort of even, and did build a good volume base. 2. Mascara, has a curved brush wand, and the black is brilliant, which I assume is the 'black booster' technology. The curve brush helps define the primed lashes into a really good shape and separate. Together, once all the primer is covered, my lashes definitely looked much longer, thicker, and more glamourous than I've had in ages using other mascaras. I got several compliments within a short space of time on how amazing my eyes looked. However. This is not smudge proof, and I found out the hard way. About two hours after applying, I left a lunch with a charming person who usually makes lots of eye contact with me, but hadn't. I felt miffed, put my sunglasses on, and left. but then ... Upon getting in the car and removing my sunglasses, I was horrified to look in the rear view mirror to see lines and lines of black mascara above my eyes/under my eyebrows on both sides. EEEEEK. SMUDGE PROOF SHE IS NOT.

Yes, that's how long my lashes had become, but oh no, it will not work as a mascara in summer.

Bonus points: I have found many volume mascara's cause me to feel like I've got weights on my eye lashes, flake into my eyes, and leave my eyeballs irritated. This did none of that!

Overall, I absolutely love the aesthetic, the intense, glam black volume is what I have been looking for! But this was let down by hard to apply primer, and smudging. I will wear again, but not in warm, sunny or humid environments.

Tips: Forgive the friends who don't tell you your stunning eyes are spreading across your face. Check the mirror often. Don't pump and clump. Take tissues.
