L’Oréal’s Age Perfect Lash Magnifying Waterproof Mascara

When I apply this mascara, I see some definition, even coverage, a bit of lengthening…but zero waterproofing. The text on the tube seems to say it all: “Easy to remove waterproof” which really means “not really waterproof.” The two coats I applied just came off on the back of my hand when I wiped laughter-tears away from my eyes. The cost of this, combined with how (in)effective it was for me, made this an easy “will not buy again” decision. I can buy other mascaras that both cost less money, and work better for me.

The company seems to agree, because between the time I purchased this tube (late 2020) and the time I got this review up (October 2021) the waterproof version of this mascara was discontinued.

A montage of three images: top left, close-up of the eyeliner tube or pencil barrel; top right, the eyeliner applied over bare skin, to better show the shade and properties; and below, the eyeliner applied on the eyelid at the lash line. Lashes with one coat of mascara, viewed face-on. The mascara tube with the applicator laying across the tube mouth, to show the brush detail and relative size. The brush applicator tapers at the far end, but does not come to a point. The applicator-wand for L'Oréal's Age Perfect Lash Magnifying Mascara. The bristles are shorter close to the wand, and gradually get longer up towards the tip.
