Best thing ever
I used up one non-waterproof version only for bottom lashes. However when I got this waterproof one, I tried it on my top lashes as well and could not put it down ever since. It is not the type of mascara that gives you drama on your lashes. But if you're like me and you enjoy enhanced eyelash look for everyday then this is perfect! It makes very noticeable difference but still looks natural, and that's exactly what I love. Will repurchase for sure.
The skinny brush is like no other
I just got this mascara yesterday. I don't know about the primer aspect because so far I have not applied another mascara over this one. I can imagine that it would work well. What I like is that for a very natural look which is what I want most of the time, this works very well on its own. I love the skinny brush because it allows me to apply this to my lower lashes without the clumping that sometimes happens with other mascaras.
Unique Wand
My lashes are precious to me. Having done chemo, I lost my hair but it was losing the lashes that really bothered me. I have babied them ever since they grew back; I tend them like a newborn baby. They are skimpier than they used to be, with gaps here and there, and they're also shorter, so mascara is a must. I also have hooded eyes so have to be very careful with the liner. I was fascinated by the idea of this skinny little wand creating the tightline look without liner. I was more fascinated when it actually worked! No, it doesn't look like you put eyeliner on but it does create thickness at the base of your lashes, giving that illusion. You can get closer to your lashline with this mascara than any other I've ever tried. This skinny wand lengthens and separates your lashes, giving you a great look -not clumpy at all. Because it's a primer, if you want to use a thickening mascara over it you can, and with ease, not tugging through already dried, clumped mascara. Because my lashes still have noticeable spaces, I do often use a thickening mascara on top but I always start with IT's tightline so I can hit the base. I think it is a must have in any makeup drawer.
Bottom Lash Mascara Yes! Priming.. No
The Tightline Waterproof Mascara is really amazing for the bottom lashes and to lengthen those bottom lashes with detailed application. This product claims to be waterproof and while it is very water resistant I am able to remove this product in the shower with face wash and water which tells me it isn't that waterproof. If you want something for waterproofing your eyes I prefer Estee Lauder's Little Black Primer over this one however I love this for bottom lashes!
