Blinc Kiss Me Mascara Doesn’t Tube Your Lashes

I could not wait to get my sample of Blinc Kiss Me Mascara in the mail. I was excited by the new concept of tubing lashes rather than painting them. This product coats lashes by combing a tube of black mascara over the lashes like a pipe so that the waterproof formula will not run, fade, crumble or rub off. It sounded too good to be true and sadly, I hated it.

The Blinc mascara was glossy and dark, and did coat my lashes by adding length and volume. It looked great and felt awful. The weight on my eyelashes seemed heavy and I found myself picking at it to make it more comfortable. It bugged me all day and I could not wait to take it off. With traditional mascara you can rub your lashes to adjust the clumps and correct any blemishes.

The Kiss Me Mascara is glued on tubes around your real lashes so there is no wiggle room on adjusting it once it is dry. The tubes wrap around your natural lashes so well that you have to use lots of warm water and gentle pressure to pull the mascara off. The lasting power and look were stellar, but I could not enjoy the feel. If you are looking for eye lash color and volume that takes serious effort to remove, this could be your ideal choice. If I had spent $25 on the full size mascara I would be crying, and I can assure you my tears would not make the product fail.
