A peek inside my cosmetics bag won’t produce much in the way of shadows, blushes, powders, or glosses. My sunscreen-spiked tinted moisturizer and an oft-used bottle of Benetint
(it does everything) mingle with six different types of mascara. Why?
Because up until last Friday, I’ve never found one that does everything
I want it to—lengthening and thickening to result of doll-eye peepers.
On any given day, I’d apply up to three different kinds—Dior Show for
thickness, Cliniuque Naturally Glossy for shine, and Lancome Definicil
for length. I’ve also got wands by Jane Iredale, Benefit, and MAC that
are at times rotated in.
But, thanks to Le 2 de Guerlain, I’m ready to commit to just one. This is by far the best mascara I’ve ever tried in my life. For one, it has two wands. A long skinny one for coating the top lashes and a tiny wand for reaching the little hairs at the inner and outer eye and or coating the bottom lashes. And the actual mascara is just amazing—so lengthening, thickening, and glossy that someone asked me if I was wearing false eyelashes and truly smudge proof.
