Review: L'Oreal Voluminous False Fiber Lashes Mascara


Mascara is a must in every makeup routine. Not only does it make your eyes pop but it also help define your lashes! I have tried lots of mascara and by far I am loving the Maybelline The Falsies and the Kiss Me Heroine Volume & Curl Mascara. 

I was given the opportunity to try out a new mascara from L'Oreal. I have never try L'Oreal mascara before so this will be my first time. 

Want to hear my thoughts on it?


L'Oreal Voluminous False Fiber Lashes Mascara
Suggest Retail: $8.95
I saw lots of reviews on different blog and this mascara is either a hit or miss for some people. This mascara has a fiber formula that adheres to lashes for a volumized, sculpted effect. It claims that lashes will appear fuller, longer, sculpted and curled at every angle.

To me, this is a bit of a miss product. The formula of this mascara is much drier than most mascara formula I used before.  L'Oreal Voluminous False Fiber Lashes Mascara dried pretty quickly after one coat so you have to apply the second coat right after the first one. I still think that after two coats, my lashes start getting clumpy and I am definitely not happy about this.

As for lengthening, it does an okay job but not too much. I love how this mascara make my lashes look fuller and volumized. I think that's the only thing I love about this mascara.

(Sorry for the terrible mascara application)
I experienced flake fall out when you try to  touch the lashes after mascara application and I am not happy about that. As you know, I wear contact and once a while I have to reapply eye drop to keep my contact moist especially when the heater is turn on. Since this is not a water-proof formula, it does smudge a little when eye drop touches the lashes. 

The packaging is definitely very chic and modern for a drugstore mascara! It has an angular shape tube and the brush is pretty long. If the brush was a bit shorter, it would be much easier for me to apply the mascara.

This fiber mascara is really dry and even though it didn't smudge much during the day I am wearing, which is around 5+ hours. 

I don't think I will purchase this and would consider using back my two favorite mascara, which has a better formula.

Rating: 2/5

Would I recommend? No

 L'Oreal Voluminous False Fiber Lashes Mascara is available is most mass retailer and drugstores across the country.

  3. Aw, that sucks it didn't work for you :/ I haven't tried this one before, but I have the original one without the fibers. I normally like Loreal mascaras, but I noticed their mascaras are getting huge LOL

  5. Wow, that's a shame. The packaging looks so pretty but I don't like dry mascaras, I prefer mascaras that look glossy and leave me enough time to apply a second coat. Won't bother trying this one, thanks for the warning! Glad I found you through the Tuesday Beauty Blog Hop :)

  6. I didn't like this very much either. I will use up my tube but I won't repurchase or recommend this mascara. Very disappointing, I think the Voluminous Carbon Black actually does a better job than this one!
