FormulaWashable

L'Oreal Paris Extensionist Mascara is a lengthening and volumizing formula designed to mimic lash extensions. The wand features a flexible bristle brush that separates and lengthens individual lashes while building modest volume. The washable formula resists smudging throughout the day but may flake slightly on oily lids. Best for users seeking dramatic length without the commitment of extensions; works well on naturally full lashes. Mid-range drugstore price with consistent performance.
