Blinc Amplified Tubing Mascara, Ultra-Longwearing Washable Mascara, Soft-Glam Volumizing, Lengthening and Defining Mascara, Gluten-Free and Cruelty-Free, Dark Brown, 9mL / 0.30 Fl. OZ

As a hairstylist constantly dealing with blow dryers and the daily hustle, I’ve struggled with mascara that just doesn’t stay put. After spending so much time perfecting my makeup, it was frustrating to deal with raccoon eyes halfway through the day. Traditional mascaras would smudge or flake off, no matter how many primers I tried.Switching to tubing mascara led me to try the Blinc Amplified Tubing Mascara, and it has truly been a game changer for me. This mascara stays put all day long, even with the heat and humidity I deal with. I love that I can finally apply mascara to my lower lashes without worrying about smudging or fallout. It also comes off easily with micellar water and a cotton pad, which is a huge plus.For anyone who struggles with mascara smudging or fading, especially if you’re in a high-heat environment like I am, I highly recommend giving this mascara a try. It has made a significant difference in how I look and feel throughout the A Game Changer for Long-Lasting Mascara.

Finally found a mascara that doesn't smudge my glasses. I really can't stand smudges on my glasses and I have searched for mascaras that might darken and thicken my lashes but not lengthen them so they wouldn't sweep against the lenses and smudge them. I had never tried tubing mascara before and I am now sold on this! This stuff doesn't smudge! I think it makes my lashes look about as good as other mascaras I've worn (no better; no worse; ie. pretty good) Its a little tricky removing it as it only comes off with water and gentle rubbing and sheds little black bits in the sink. Then I still have to use eye make up remover to get rid of the liner/mascara. But its well worth it to me to finally find a mascara that doesn't require the cleaning of my glasses 8-10 times a day!

I have terrible problems with raccoon eyes- even with waterproof mascara. I almost never wear eyeliner because of it. I read about tubing mascaras, and according to good housekeeping this was the best overall. I will say, if you're looking for volume and bulk, this is not it. Yoru lashes will look very long and fluttery, which is the style now anyway. I find while applying, I wish the brush was smaller. Trying to get that brush into the corners on either end of the eye is hard, and i end up getting some on the skin. If you don't wipe immediately, it will be glued there all day. I wear this and go to a HIIT work out, it doesn't run, which is really great! I find I do need make up remover or micellar water to fully remove it. I will also say, at the 3 month mark, the mascara starts to dry out and it will start to flake by days end, and these flakes will irritate your eyes and make them scratchy and leave little tubes all over your undereye area. I know you're supposed to chuck mascaras after 3 months, but i have never had a mascara age out quite like this. That, and the brush issue lead me to 4 stars, but overall, i would use this mascara again, i would look at buying travel sizes for it. It doesn't run, I don't have raccoon eyes, and I haven't found that in a mascara since i started wearing makeup.

I used to swear by Blinc tubing mascara and recommended it whenever I could. This new "amplified" tubing mascara is awful though. It flakes away throughout the day and every time I look in the mirror I see little bits of dark brown mascara around my eyes and on my cheeks.

Pro: This is fun for when you want to have a glamorous look and length for evening without looking like a raccoon two hours later. I like the fact that it's easily removable with warm water and doesn't break my own lashes. I prefer softer brown rather than black as I'm a senior with very fair skin. Recommended.

This got so much hype and doesn’t perform better than other tubing mascaras I’ve tried. It is a true tubing formula but I’d rather buy L’Oréal tubing mascara for the price and performance. It does stay put and doesn’t flake much, comes off easily with water.

This is the only mascara that I will use. I had bought it before in the black and not the Amplified formula, so I was a little bit worried about the Amplified formula perhaps smudging or flaking, but my fears turned out to be unfounded! Just like the original formula, it is virtually smudge and flake proof. There are so many other mascara is out there that claimed that and I have tried just about every one of them, and they always end up flaking and smudging! Not Blinc! I like the color of the dark brown just because I have very fair skin, red hair and green eyes, so it looks more natural, but both the black and the dark brown are great colors depending on the look that you would like. The brush also does not get messy or clumpy and it really does coat every lash. Nothing crunchy or clumpy on my eyelashes, and if you gently take your thumb and forefinger over your lashes, you won't feel any flakes or stiffness oh, it is a very flexible formula. Removal is easy, all you need to do is lightly wet your thumb and forefinger, gently press over the eyelashes for a few seconds and the eyelash tubes come off right in your fingers. Easy peasy! :-)

And esthetician recommended this mascara years ago and she has never steered me in the wrong direction. Not having mascara run and smudge during the heat or sad moments is a bonus and it never looks clumpy!
