The brush is this product's selling point. That said it is a spiky little hard-rubber ball and can pretty easily stab you in the eye when you're trying to get those baby lashes in the corners of...

Ok always on the search for the false eyelash look...the wand is great. I can reach every lash. The mascara itself? Bleh...the black has a slightly greyish cast. It's not a true shiny black and...

I liked this mascara when I first purchased it. It did a really nice job of fanning out my lashes. However after owning it about 1.5-2 months... there was still a ton of product left but it was...

I figured I couldn't go wrong buying this product since the regular Telescopic is my HG mascara but I was wrong. The first use was awesome. It seperated all my lashes perfectly and gave me both...

I'd say the best thing about this mascara is its wand. I use it to get into the corners of my eyes, since a normal wand doesn't really reach that far (and my hand eye coordination is horrible). I...

I actually really like this mascara despite all other reviews saying it was hard to apply. I apply this with the wand tip facing my eye and that method is pretty easy for me. This little applicator...

i was not overly impressed with this mascara. the wand is good for getting to some harder to get lashes,but other than that it didn't do much for me. i feel like it made my eyelashes look thin.

I think this wand is a dream for Asian girls with shorter lashes who need help with separating and coating individual lashes. It really made my eyelashes pop and it doesn't bleed or smudge. I also...

I used this for the first time today, I was impressed by the finished look, but it doesn't look any different than the original telescopic mascara, which is one of my fav's. This is difficult to...

If I had written a review after the 1st use, it would have been 1 lippie, not a repurchase. To me a mascara should be easy to use, just go on, wear nicely - that's it. The brush is very unique,...

I also hate this mascara. It's far too messy to put on for less that amazing results. It agree that is does clump and make your lashes look awful. I will definitely not be purchasing this again!

I found this just SO hard to apply! It takes sooooo long to apply and the result isn't really any better than the normal telescopic mascara. The wand gets thinner and dips in just before the brush...

I would not buy this odd shaped brush mascara again. Reason being, it puts way too much product on the lashes and doesn't look at all natural to boot. My lashes have that awful, too much mascara,...
