I really like this mascara, and use it frequently. For such a thin, barely-there applicator, it does provide some impressive lengthening. I often pair it with L'oreal's Double-Extend for best...

I love this mascara. It really lengthens, and unlike some of the fiber mascaras, does not flake off in little black bits during the day. I can't really speak to the volume since that's not really...

I picked this one up for a little over $7 at Shoppers when it was 40% off. First of all I love the telescope shape of the bottle, very cute! I was a little surprised when I saw the wand because it...

This is one of my favourite mascaras. It does everything I need in a mascara:lengthens, volumizes, defines, curls and doesn't clump. Love it. The only mascara that I liked better than this is a...

Okay ladies this mascara is for designed for length only! If your looking for a mascara which adds any kind of volume don't even bother with this one. Also your lashes become very dry and brittle...

There is nothing really special about this mascara. It lengthens and curls but is not very dramatic. This review was originally written for L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Mascara - Carbon Black

I didn't *love* this mascara when I first got it, the comb type brush took a little getting used to. If you put on a few coats and wiggle back and forth at the base it provides major fullness and...

I'm a huge fan of the rubber brush/comb-style mascaras--this one in particular gives me incredibly long lashes with fullness at the base. Wiggle the brush at the base of your lashes and sweep down...

I have short lashes and Telescopic really lengthens them. I really see the extra length when I apply on the tips of lashes first, then wriggle from root to tip. It separates, defines and holds...

This mascara didn’t really *do* anything for me. On the plus side, no smudging, clumping or flaking! But then…. No length, definition, volume, or holding a curl. Made me say to myself, what’s...
