The brown is a proper deep brown shade. Although, hold the tube towards the light and it has a deep purple/brown sheen. It’s a very flattering shade, unlike Benefit’s They’re Real! Mascara in Beyond Brown which is too red and makes my eyes look sore. The cone-shaped brush is carefully developed to assure the ideal load on each lash, even in the inner corner of the eye ( Agree 100%) Place the brush on the centre of the lash fringe. Let the brush glide over the lashes from root to tip in a zigzag movement

I usually fall in love with a mascara immediately and then find two weeks later that it clumps or smudges, so far though, this one hasn’t let me down. My eyes are sensitive, but I’ve had no adverse reactions to this mascara. I should point out though, that it’s highly fragranced with a definite flowery perfume/very slightly chemical scent.

About

The exclusive Fibershine formula, enriched with nylon powders, offers perfect load ( Yes) and beautiful curve ( Curve, not so much) for seductive fanned out lashes ( Yes again) The formula, enriched with nylon powders and offers an ideal coat and beautiful curve for seductive fanned out lashes. A must-have mascara for a volumised, extended, lifted lash look. You should however, allow a few minutes for it to dry. I found that it lengthens my top lashes so much that when I blink, it sometimes transfers the product to under my eye.

A must-have mascara to create beautiful lashes that look extended and lifted, Hypnôse Doll Eyes evenly coats lashes without weighing them down. As I’m going into week 5 with Doll Eyes, I’ll be interested to see if it starts to dry out or clump. For now though, this really is the one and I’m happy to spend money on a quality mascara that actually delivers.

Shop With Confidence

I think I may have finally found THE ONE! I’ve been using Lancôme’s Doll Eyes mascara nearly every day for a month now, which I think is long enough to write a fully rounded review.

The cone shaped brush is carefully developed to assure the ideal amount of formula on each lash, even in the inner corner of the eye. I found the ‘zig-zag motion didn’t work as well as just simply applying it straight from root to tip. I’m not convinced the wand curls lashes sufficiently, I still need to use my Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler (worth the money, because it’ll grip even the shortest eyelashes without pinching your skin) to give my lashes a strong curl. The ‘doll eyes’ effect doesn’t translate to over the top ‘spidery’ lashes. Instead, lashes are separated and defined in a natural doll-like way. A lot of people apply false eyelashes just to the outer corners of the eyes, with Doll Eyes, you’re able to fan out lashes just using the wand to give a subtle ‘false eyelash’ effect at the corners to widen eyes.The mascara isn’t waterproof, but it lasts a good 7-8 hours without smudging. That said, for the first time ever, I applied mascara to my bottom lashes – the brush really does catch all the tiny hairs. It lasted about 4-5 hours before I had to wipe away some slight smudging with a damp cotton wool bud. It’s absolutely worth this little inconvenience though, because mascara applied top and bottom dramatically opens up the eyes. I also found that because my lashes weren’t stiff after the first coat, I was able to apply a second coat without any clumping, which is rare for me. Our unique cone shaped brush ensures the ideal load with each application, even in the inner corner of the eyes.
