L'Oreal PRO XXL VOLUME MASCARA

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!

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.

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!

I haven’t tried a 2 step mascara in years and years so was super keen to see how things had changed in that time. It was really easy to apply, I did step 1 which is white on both pages then went in with step 2 with the black. Both formulas easily coated my lashes and was very pleased to see no clumping! I don’t have long lashes but they’re not short and I’m not normally one to go for a volumising product because I’ve always swayed toward length but I felt this gave me a decent amount of length. It dried down quickly, no smudging, no panda eyes and no flaking. I found it really defined my individual lashes and fanned them out really nicely without making them clumpy or thick. I was really impressed. And to top it all off I found it lasted all day, through groceries and running round after kids and cooking dinner etc. but when the time comes to clean it off it comes away easily with my oil cleanser Definitely adding this one to my repurchase list for mascara and I tell you it’s hard to sway me from my tried and trues but this definitely gave me great results. Would be interested to try the others in this range as I see a few were released.

I was quite excited to receive the L’Oréal xxl mascara to see if it could make a difference to my lashes.

It’s quite a big mascara container as it has the primer at one end and the mascara at the other but you soon get used to it.

The first step is the primer and you apply this with a straight brush which helps to spread it evenly. It was strange coating my lashes in white. It’s very easy to put on and my lashes were ready for step two.

The mascara brush is curved and goes on easily over the primer. I was worried it would look quite clumpy but it looked really even, and made my lashes look fantastic.

I haven’t tried lash extensions but I feel this mascara is somewhere in between lash extensions and normal mascara.

It definitely made an impact as I’ve had a couple of people comment about my lashes since wearing it.

The size of the mascara handle is a bit bigger than I’m used it doesn’t take long to get used to.

I’d definitely recommend this product if you want more impact than normal mascara but not quite lash extensions.

This is a great mascara and perfect for everyday. Super easy to apply with the 2 steps. First coat lashes with the primer then top with mascara. This was easy to do and i found the applicator brushes really good to use, they're nice and firm which ensures good coverages of all lashes. It definitely adds volume and lengthens lashes without feeling too heavy or clumpy like some mascaras can be. It lasts all day without smuging and I have also found that at the end of the day its really easy to remove with a bit of make up remover.

I have lashes ! I'm excited about this product. I love that both products are contained in the one wand. Its a really cool shape and easy to grip. The apilication of white base goes on so easily even my very very fine eyelashes have hope! I do apply the black fairly quickly after the primer. This goes on beautifuly with no clugging and no blotching. When I experimented and allowed the primer to dry I found I did get a more gluggy appearance rather than nice lush lashes. I do like the curvature of the brush, I find for me it gives the lashes a little upward lift ( I never use curling tool as I just don't like them ) It's also fragrance free so this ticks another of my personal boxes.

After a long day at work , I found that the mascara hadn't smudged or transfered to my lid which I find some mascaras do. It gives me everything! Volume, length, body but still looks natural! And it holds all day long!! My last mascara was 2 separate wands , this is so much more convient and unlike other volumisers doesn't have micro lashes that flake into the eye. All in all its a fabulous product and at $24.00 this is such great value and I'll definitely be buying again....

I LOVED this mascara. Mascara's do best for me (for some reason) that have long skinny wands. I also do tend to use a lash primer beforehand so to have both of these in one product was amazeballs!

The mascara comes in two steps, so it has 2 wands on either end of it. The first one is the primer and the 2nd wand is the mascara itself. It goes on just right for me, no clumping and no mess. My lashes look long and natural. You only need one coat.

This is my new favourite mascara the fact that I no longer have to buy a separate primer is a bonus for me. I'll certainly be replacing it with the same product when i've burnt through this one.
