Clarins Truly Waterproof Mascara (01 Intense Black)

I can't live without waterproof mascaras, washable mascaras makes my lashes super straigth even with the help of a good lash curler. So I was happy to hear that Clarins released a new waterproof mascara this summer, the Truly Waterproof macara! This review is for the shade #01 Intense Black, a beautiful blue (#02 Curaçao, limited edition) is available too!

Truly Waterproof mascara lengthens my lashes slightly and add volume. For me, one coat was enough and it was perfect for everyday use!

Like most waterproof mascaras, it hold the curl all day! It doesn't flake and doesn't transfer pigment on my brow bone due to my oily skin, which is a problem I have with most mascaras during summertime. So I give a big thumbs up for that! Oh and yes, it's very water resistant and looks good all day (more than 12 hours)!

I love the brush because it's not too big and is easy to use, and the formula isn't too wet or too thick. It does feel a bit heavier than most mascaras though, but it's nothing compared to wearing falsies. It doesn't bother me, honestly, I only noticed it because I applied it on one eye and a different mascara on the other eye!

One coat

My lashes are already curled in the 'before' photo, because it would be useless if you couldn't see the natural length of my lashes!

By the way, don't be afraid of waterproof mascaras, I've been using these almost every day since the past 10 years and see, my lashes didn't fall out! You DO need a good makeup remover though, an oil-based one (dual-phase formula). I like Lancôme Bi-Facil, Bourjois Express Eye Makeup Remover, Elizabeth Arden All Gone Eye and Lip Makeup Remover and Marcelle Gentle Make-Up Remover.


My only complaint is that it is a bit pricey for me, I rarely spend more that $10 for a mascara. But hey, I  know some of you don't mind the price tag!

The Clarins Truly Waterproof Mascara retail for $27 CDN for 7ml.
