I was luckily enough to get a sample from a friend who works for Estée Lauder when I went in to get colour matched, I didn't even know they had mascara samples until having a consult with her.
I really like the blue and gold tubing, it looks very elegant and pricy, you could tell it was more expensive compared to the others on the market. The brush is thicker than I would expect to come out of a small tube like that, the bristles go from small to big, you can easily coat each individual eye lash with ease and when I have the time I like to get all the smaller hairs on the inner corners of my eyes. The formula is thick and there is no fall out on my cheekbones. I like to apply 2-3 coats of this and it makes my eyelashes look like I'm wearing false eyelashes. I like how the formula is so pigmented and so dark.
This mascara lasts all day untouched, it looks perfect throughout the whole day, removing this is a breeze, I can remove it while I'm in the shower and I get 90% off it off just by using a wash cloth and hot water. This is one of the easiest mascaras to remove from my eyelashes.
For the price I'm still uncertain if I would buy it as there are cheaper mascaras that do a similar job, what I really liked is how easy it is to remove at night and that it is smudge proof for the whole day.
Gives nice separate lashes and not to clumpy. Alil pricey but seems to last and is well worth it. I like the shape of the brush, it gets all those lashes in hard to reach places
