Estee Lauder Double Wear Zero-Smudge Lengthening Mascara Reviews

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.

Estée Lauder Double Wear Zero-Smudge Lengthening Mascara is the only mascara I use. I have tried many other products with the resulting "mascara run" by the end of the day and this mascara definitely does what it says - It does not smudge. It has a good size wand that makes it easy to apply to top and bottom lashes and provides an excellent lengthening effect. I find that I can wear it all day and it remains intact on my lashes. I believe it is absolutely worth the price and would recommend it to anyone who has mascara smudging issues

I first tryed this product when getting my makeup done by estee lauder I was instantly in love with the effect it gave me and through out the day no matter what at the gym etc no smudging! it is a high end makeup but in my case I think its worth it, the brush on the mascara seperates my lashes making my eyes pop!

I was SO sad when EL discontinued the lash XL, but I had high hopes for this one as it was a replacement for the lash XL. I was not disappointed. I would say the formulas are quite similar, it's quite a thin consistency and there is no clumping whatsoever (except when the mascara is starting to dry out and getting towards the end of its life). Staying power is great and the brush is skinny and easy to control. Doesn't do much for volume, which I've realized is quite important for me as I have really sparse lashes. This mascara definitely isn't one of those that can do a fake lash effect, but is great for a day time look.

I really like this mascara, its easy to apply although you have to be a little careful of clumping. If you have a lash comb or old mascara brush to remove clumps, this mascara is great.

Pros: - Wears all day with no smudges - Easy to remove - Gives great length and separation

Cons: - Can clump if not careful - Needs fast application as it dries quickly and doesn't like being recoated once dry

I love this mascara! It separates your lashes so well and isn't too over-the-top so is perfect for day wear. It's very long lasting and doesn't clump. It doesn't dry that fast so, if you blink or have longer lashes can smudge slightly. Since it separates so well, it also makes my lashes look very long!
