L'Oreal Paris Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara, Black, 0.33 Ounces

Product Information

This three-in-one tubing mascara gives your lashes lift and length, keeps them shiny and healthy thanks to ashwagandha (a plant-based ingredient rich in antioxidants), and strengthens your natural lashes with a peptide complex too. The effect? Lashes that look instantly gorgeous and better with time. Editor Tip: It shares the same anti-smudging and easy-wash-off characteristics as other tubing mascaras.

On the other hand, tubing mascara uses a polymer that wraps around each lash to create a tube, hence the name. The tubes flake less, last long, are water-resistant, and are great for those with sensitive skin. Tubing mascara is also so easy to remove—just soak a cotton round in warm water, and the little tubes will slide right off. (FYI, they are water-resistant to cold water, but not to warm, hence the easy removal.) If you're in the market for a cruelty-free, vegan makeup product, this here is your bb. Formulated with polymers that give a super long-lasting and lengthening effect, this tubing mascara is one of my all-time favorites for extra long lashes that don't smear or run. If you’re going for a doe-eyed, va-va-voom look, this tubing mascara is a smart choice. The bristles have wavy brush fibers, so you’re able to catch, coat, lift, and curl each lash. For extra curl and volume, focus on applying your mascara to the base of your lashes to lift them up. It comes down to personal preference when deciding which type of mascara is better per se. Regular mascara uses wax and pigment, which tends to flake easier. However, because conventional mascara is a majority of the mascara market, there are a ton of options. This tubing mascara will give you some major Bambi eyelashes. Seriously, you’ll have people wondering if you’re wearing fake lashes. The teeny-tiny bristles grip your lashes for intense volume and length, while the jojoba oil in the formula keeps ’em soft and shiny.If you've given them a go before, you may already be familiar with the oddly satisfying visual of your lashes appearing to shed, like snakeskin, while your real lashes thankfully stay intact. (On the other hand, if this is your first try, don't freak out when you see lash-like, little tubes going down the drain!) Your new go-to product? This tubing mascara. Not only do the short, dense bristles grip and lift every lash, but they also work to separate and coat ’em. The result? Lashes that are defined but still look natural. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{ One time, halfway through a date, I went to the bathroom and noticed that my mascara had completely smudged underneath my eyes. Not a cute look, and I definitely could have avoided it if I had used this tubing mascara. It's on the pricey side, yes, but the formula doesn’t budge, so it won’t give you raccoon eyes (bless), but it will give you long, wispy lashes, thanks to the brush.

If you want your lashes to look great every day without an extensive routine or eyelash extensions, you need to swipe on this tubing mascara ASAP. The brush helps separate and coat your lashes, giving you a beautiful, your-lashes-but-better look. It’s perfect for a night out (or, like, any time you run into your ex and want to look amaze). Editor Tip: You only have about 60 to 90 seconds to apply this stuff before it dries down and becomes un-buildable, so it's not ideal for topping up during the day. Another way to determine the type is to remove your mascara. If you wash your face and are left with the dreaded raccoon eyes, it's conventional mascara. FYI, this is a good option if you already own the mascara. Think about the brush size and shape Editor Tip: When we tried this stuff, it lived up to its smudge-proof claims, even through a sweaty workout (although it's not tear-proof or waterproof). Why It's Worth It: Caliray's Best of Beauty-winning Come Hell or High Water Volumizing Tubing Mascara is formulated with conditioning argan oil and tubing technology that is water-resistant yet easy to remove. Not to mention, there are film-forming agents in it, too, so lashes look extra long and voluminous.While waterproof mascara may offer longer staying power than its traditional counterparts, many require a full-force scrub-fest to remove — and even worse, they often claim a few lashes as collateral. Tubing mascaras tend to be gentler: Instead of rigorously wiping your eyes with makeup remover or thoroughly massaging mascara away with cleansing oil, these "tubes" slide off with warm water and some gentle pressure. "Think of it as the saran wrap on your lashes," King says. "They add some bulkiness and are flexible enough to stretch for an eyelash extension look." Siena Gagliano is a contributing beauty editor at Cosmopolitan and has three years of experience writing about beauty, fashion, and lifestyle news. She’s an expert at researching and writing beauty stories, like the best lip plumpers and the greatest cream blushes on the market, and feels especially knowledgable in tubing mascaras, because she is always on the hunt for long-lasting, water-resistant mascaras that come off easily (hence why she loves tubing mascaras). She regularly tests and analyzes mascaras on her own lashes for efficacy, while working with the industry’s top makeup artists and cosmetic chemists to assess new formulas and brands. The spiky, tapered wand on this tubing mascara will take your lashes up a notch. The bristles grip each and every lash (yes, even the teeny-tiny ones) at the root, giving them major length. Why It's Worth It: Too Cool for School's Dinoplatz Escalator Mascara has a particularly special feature: a twistable cap that expands and contracts the wand's bristles, so you can totally customize this mascara to your precise lash preferences. An extended brush gives you length, while a contracted brush zones in on fullness and volume — or combine both tactics for va-va-voom lashes.

I had a feeling, which is why I tested and reviewed tons of tubing mascaras to bring you this list of the 15 best options—from brands such as Tower 28, Tarte, Essence, and more—along with expert tips from Los Angeles-based celebrity makeup artist Jenna Nicole. Why It's Worth It: Estée Lauder Double Wear Zero-Smudge is a glossy, intensely pigmented mascara that has gained a following for its volumizing and lengthening formula, which keeps undereyes smudge-free — no raccoon eyes here. The brush features both long and short bristles for double the chances of coating every last lash. Editor Tip: Lavonne recommends lightly dusting your lashes with a little loose powder before applying the mascara for added longevity, as well as a dab underneath the eyes to prevent transfer. Yes, this dual-ended tubing mascara requires you apply two different products—an eyelash primer and then a tubing mascara—but the results are so GD impressive that I doubt you'll mind. The primer is infused with panthenol and ceramides to condition lashes, while the little tubes in the mascara cling to lashes to provide a dramatic lengthening effect.Why It's Worth It: Blinc Mascara is the original tubing mascara that started the trend and its legacy is still going strong, as evidenced by its 2023 Best of Beauty Award seal. It's since branched out into six different colors (like burgundy and navy) and features a soft, curved brush and formula that imparts a lengthening, "your-lashes-but-better" look. It doesn't budge, flake, or smudge throughout the day, and it's even tear-proof. Why It's Worth It: Tarte's Tartelette Tubing Mascara is the brand's very first tubing formula in its beloved, award-winning mascara category. Made with conditioning shea butter, moisturizing castor oil, and carnauba wax to lengthen and volumize, people will question whether or not you have lash extensions with just a few coats.
