So, this weekend I tried out the new L’oreal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara – and I loved it!
I have to admit, I was a bit skeptical at first. As, i’m not usually a huge fan of the ‘tubing’ technology or the ‘white’ base coat – until now!
According to their website - L’oreal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara helps you get the look of “lash extensions” by “visibly lengthening your lashes up to an astonishing 80%.”
Here’s how it works:
Step One: Is a nourishing base coat that is infused with Ceramide R and D-Panthenol to protect and strengthen your lashes while creating the perfect base for the tube application.
Step Two: Is the “ultra-lengthening” tube top coat which is said to take your lashes to “amazing new heights…beauty tubes will not run, clump, flake or smudge and will stay on all day.”
Step Three: Beauty tubes mascara “removes easily with just warm water – no makeup remover or rubbing required!”
Beautytubes.ca says that it’s:
- Clump-free length.
- Smudge-proof.
- Flake-proof.
- Long wear hold.
- Ophthalmologist and allergy tested.
- Suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.
- Removes easily with plenty of warm water.
- Fragrance-free.
Overall, I think this mascara is definitely worth the extra step – it honestly doesn’t clump or flake and it really does help to lengthen your lashes while giving it some volume at the same time. Plus, it’s super easy to remove!
But, here is the big question – Will it replace my all time L’oreal favoutrite – Voluminous? No.
However, I think it will definitely have a place in my top ten favourite mascara’s!
And, ladies don’t forget to wake.up & make.up!
I don’t feel like it did much “extending” of my lashes. But it was really nice to wear! It didn’t irritate my eyes at all and it does come off very easily. Not sure its worth $9 though.
