I have always had a hard time finding mascara that works for me. My eyes water a lot so with most mascaras, I look like a have really been beaten down by about mid-afternoon. I recently tried a mascara that I found at my nail salon called blinc. blinc is the original mascara invented to form tiny water-resistant “tubes” around your lashes rather than painting them like conventional mascaras. It is kind of scary the first time you wash your face and see all these tiny tubes in your sink, but after you look in the mirror and see all your lashes still full intact, everything is okay again!
I love this mascara because my eyes can water, and I can even cry (usually when Ellen gives away huge prizes to people on her show that change their life) without having any mishaps with my eye makeup. According to blinc’s web site:
Once applied, these beauty tubes bind to your lashes and cannot run, smudge, clump, or flake, even if you cry or rub your eyes. blinc mascara will add volume and length to give you a radiant natural look that lasts all day. blinc is better than waterproof mascaras. All it takes is the combination of lots of warm water and gentle pressure, from your fingertips; a washcloth or water pressure (i.e. shower) and the tubes will slide off your lashes effortlessly. blinc mascara has been clinically tested to be non-irritating making it ideal for sensitive eyes, contact lens wearers, and active people in search of a mascara whose look, hold and ease of removal is without compromise.
I can attest to the promise blinc makes about their mascara being able to go “from the office, to your sweaty workout and then out to dinner,” because I put it to the test yesterday. My eyes looked the same at dinner as they did before I left for work.
If you don’t like the spider web lash look and you need mascara that will last you through the day then should definitely try blinc. It is $25.oo on blinc’s web site or you can get it at Amazon for $19.99. For makeup tips and news on new and existing products you can follow blinc on Twitter or fan them on Facebook!
Have you tried any mascara with the tube technology? If so, what did you think about it?
