Lancome Mascara (All Varieties) Review

Yep, that's right ladies. Vibrating mascara is here!! Actually Lancome's oscillates at 7000 revolutions per minute. I first heard about this mascara some months ago from a magazine article in which professional makeup artists were talking about it. At that time this brand had not yet been released and was being anticipated as the most exciting makeup product since the invention of lipstick! I was definately intrigued....

This mascara delivers what they claim it does. You can do light application for day wear or go dramatic for evening wear. It's applied by holding the wand at the base of your lashes, press/hold the button on the side and slowly move it up to the tip of the eyelash. You can even do a zig/zag motion to get more volume. It's a very unique and fun product.

The mascara itself is just ok in my opinion. I don't think the black is a rich black and it does wear down after a few hours. I believe that's because it's the applicator and not the mascara that creates the volume and dramatic length. Either way, it's not something I would most likely buy again at $34 a tube! I say this mainly because of the price and I'm perfectly happy using my old faithfull non-battery operated mascara.

I do however, highly recommend this product over the other brands which only vibrate back/forth instead of oscillating like Lancome's. Also, you can control the power on Lancome's which has an on/off switch whereas the other brands immediately start vibrating as soon as you pull out the applicator and don't stop until you close up the tube. This leads me to believe the batteries will run out before the mascara does!
