Well Groomed Lashes with Clinique’s Naturally Glossy Mascara
The overall image of beautiful lashes is those glamorous thick voluminous lashes that evoke an overall image of glamor and seduction, celebrities like Gwen Stefani are never seen without it. That however doesn’t mean automatically that bigger is better all the time, there are those who already have a set of gorgeous lush lashes and don’t need to coat them in a volume creating product and only would like a slight hint of color and a bit of shine so that you’ll look far more groomed without any added drama.
I have light brown hair and although I have a generous amount of long lashes but they are quite light and therefore rather invisible so I decided to shop around for something that would just add color.
I was a consumer in the past of Jean Paul Gaultier’s Tout Beau Tinted Brow and Lash Groomer but it became clumpy quite quickly and I wasn’t happy with the overall shade selection.
While the results with Chanel seemed too artificial and Helena Rubinstein’s most subdued mascara proved to be beyond dramatic, I was happy to hang the gloves when I decided to browse the Clinique counter. That’s when I saw “Naturally Glossy” and decided to give it a go and I must say it immediately achieved Holy Grail status.
I consider this rather just a tinted lash groomer, it gives your lashes a nice curl, doesn’t clump and they remain perfectly natural and if by any chance a couple of lashes stick together give hit a whisk of a lash brush to separate them.
This mascara also gives a slightly glossy finish (available in Jet Brown or Jet Black) to your lashes making them look groomed and lustrous, remaining soft throughout the day without flaking or drying. This is a makeup item that will be remaining in my makeup bag for the next months.
For the completely opposite effect, check out my review on Helena Rubinstein’s Lash Queen Mascara.
