The Volume Mascara, Black: Precision detail brush. Tubing tech. Long wear. Clump & flake-free. Pro makeup artist go to that thickens, separate & lengthen lashes. Easy removal with water.

Let's talk lashes—specifically, the kind that turn heads and spark envy. As a former lash extension addict, I've tried my fair share of mascaras promising the world. Yeah, yeah, there are other tubing lashes with more hype, but trust me when I say, Kevyn Aucoin - The Volume Mascara is the secret to effortlessly beautiful lashes that don't break the bank. What's more? This unicorn formula will garner you just as many compliments and queries about who does your lashes as you received when you used to get them done professionally, which, as a former lash addict, means the world to me. **Effect and Performance:** From the first swipe, this mascara works its magic. The brush coats each lash with precision, adding instant volume and length without clumps. Whether I'm going for a natural look or full-on glam, it delivers every time. People still stop me on the street, asking about my "lash tech," not realizing it's all thanks to this little tube of genius. **Tubing Technology:** Let's talk about the tubing formula—life-changing. Unlike traditional mascaras that smudge and flake, this one forms tiny tubes around each lash. They stay put all day (and night) without a hint of raccoon eyes. Removal is a dream—warm water in the shower and gentle pressure, and the tubes slide off effortlessly, leaving no residue behind. It's like shedding a layer of confidence-boosting armor, gracefully. Despite not being waterproof, I swear by it to keep me free from raccoon eyes. **Personal Journey:** As someone who once couldn't go a week without a fill, discovering Kevyn Aucoin - The Volume Mascara was a revelation. It gives me the same lush lashes I craved from salon extensions, but with the convenience and affordability of applying it at home. No more salon extensions, no hassle of applying your own false lashes, and no more scheduling nightmares—just beautifully defined lashes whenever I want them. **Overall Impression:** In conclusion, Kevyn Aucoin - The Volume Mascara isn't just another mascara; it's a game-changer in my beauty routine. It's relatable, effortless, and delivers on its promises with style. Whether you're a lash enthusiast or a mascara newbie, this little tube holds the key to lashes that speak volumes—literally. This review captures the essence of what makes this formula a true unicorn amongst a crowded market. It's not just about makeup; it's about confidence, ease, and embracing your natural beauty effortlessly.

This is a tubing mascara. And it is glorious. Easy to apply (wipe the excess off the wand before applying--this is Mascara 101, and a necessity for tubing mascaras because they are always wetter than traditional mascaras)--the wand has a lot of fine bristles that do a good job of separating and coating each lash, and the small diameter makes it easy to reach the inner and outer corners even if your eyes are small. The formula dries quickly, and doesn't clump unless the tube is old or you wait too long between coats. I use two coats--the first coat I wiggle for volume, and the second coat I look down and pull the wand up and out to create curl and length. I prefer bold lashes so two coats is perfect for me (I don't see any gains by adding more than two coats), but for a work/day look most people will be fine with one coat.The formula is a true black, it does a good job of adding volume without creating spiderlashes or weighing lashes down, and the length and curl lasts all day in all weather. It stays put perfectly all day without flaking. It holds up to rain and tears well, but does come off my lower outer corners when I rub my eyes during allergy season. It removes easily with water and very gentle rubbing--I have not lost any lashes from this mascara and I don't find remnants of it the next day. For reference, other tubing mascaras I have tried that have not performed nearly as well as this one are Blinc Original (didn't seem to do much other than make the lashes black), Blinc Amplified (flaked off during the day), DHC Perfect Pro (hard to remove; I lost lashes with this one), and Trish McEvoy High Volume (clumpy formula that got even clumpier if it got wet).

Amazing product first week but kinda clumps more and more as opened. Really like the brush though so I dip the brush in different mascara brand and that seems to work well for me.

I love this mascara. I switched to tubing mascara about a year ago after having too many smudges with traditional mascaras. After reading many recommendations and reviews, I tried many highly rated tubing mascaras, but each one still left some smudges after about 6-8 hours. This one has lasted all day without any issues. It adds a lot of length and creates a big impact. Plus it comes off really easily when I'm ready to remove it. I also have chronically dry eyes, including occasional eye inflammation. This mascara hasn't aggravated my conditions at all. I highly recommend it.

I heard this was the best tubing mascara. Maybe I got a really bad tube (??). It was dry. It flaked into my eyes when putting it on. It managed to smudge beneath my eyes many times during the day. I only use tubing mascara. This was easily the worst I’ve ever tried (hopefully it was a bad batch). This one was even hard to put ON. It would basically impossible to just even darken my lashes with color (my lashes are light). The end result was really sickly looking, somewhat sticky/ tacky eyelashes. I am thoroughly disappointed with this mascara after hearing so much about it. Due to the pandemic, I wasn’t smart enough to return or replace it before time ran out. Certainly it’s not always like this?? I’m so sad. I wanted to like it sooo much.

This is hands down the best mascara I've ever used. Yes, it is kinda pricey, but here's why it's worth it... 1. It NEVER smudges. EVER! I live in a tropical climate and had never found a mascara that wouldn't embarrassingly smudge in the heat and humidity until I read reviews of this and decided to try it out. It lives up to the hype. 2. It is easy to take off completely without leaving any residue. 3. It doesn't flake, which is important to fellow contact wearers. 4. When I apply, it doesn't clump! 5. It doesn't give me spider lashes, which I dislike. 6. It makes my real lashes look thicker, longer, darker, and better than they ever have.
