(I think many would agree since it won a 2020Readers' Choice Award.)
My lashes always look elongated, fanned-out, and yet surprisingly natural.
One thing’s for sure I’ll take all of the oomph I can get.

Flash forward to after a few test wears and I think I’ve found my new favorite going-out mascara.
So far, so good.
Sarah, just get to the part about what the mascara actually looks like.
Hello, lashes! So nice of you to show up.
Here are the classic before-and-after comparison shots:
Hello, lashes!
So nice of you to show up.
In case you needed a reminder from a few paragraphs ago, I have naturally veryshort, straight lashes.
On camera, they’re barely discernable at all (see above left photo).
My issue withallhourglass-like brushes is that the thicker end isn’t able to pick up a few outermost lashes.
But the two clearly serve different purposes and I’m here for both.
Other than that, I’ve absolutely warmed up to Fullest Lash.
Even during one of my most objectively stressful weeks in recent memory,I look alert and wide-eyed.
This mascara doesn’t budge, flake, or streak like most mascaras do after a few hours.
And, as with waterproof mascaras, I do find it easiest to remove with acleansing oil.
My current favorites areCurelMakeup Cleansing OilandManyo FactoryPure Cleansing Oil.
Otherwise, it takes multiple rounds of micellar water, which is too harsh for my liking.
Whatever saves time is a winner in my book.
