Clinique Claims that its Lash Doubling Mascara-
Magnifies lashes to twice their size. Thickens them to maximum volume. In minimum time. Unique tapered brush finds every lash. For bigger, better lashes. Ophthalmologist tested.”

 Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara Review: Eh!
For me, i rarely ever invest in high end brand mascara’s. See, mascaras are like flings, they last a short time, they are fun when they last  but try and stretch them post what theyr intended to last and they turn dry in lesser than a second. Hence- my advice in mascaras is usually to go cheap. I got this one as a sample pack (Big size for a sample !!!!!) when my aunt when to sephora- they give these goodies away at sephora in sample sizes apparently .


 Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara Review: Eh!
Anyhow, i had read great reviews about this so i was quite excited to try it out and this is what i thought:

What i like about the Clinique lash doubling mascara
  • Does not clump at all!! 
  • Does not dry out easily. I mean this was good for a year almost !
  • The wand is nice- great thickness of the bristles and easy to apply with a sturdy handle


What i dont like about the Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara
  • It doesnt do anything on the volume front. Zilch. 
  • All it does is elongates the lashes and that to not to a great extent. Definitely not lash doubling at all.

 Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara Review: Eh!
This is with Mascara…err…Theyr still puny!

Overall Verdict: 2.75/5


Price: Rs 900/- or 14.50$


Will i Repurchase: Nope.It doesnt do what a mascara is supposed to


Recommendation: I dont know if its just me, but i dont get the big deal about this. Yes it lengthens the lashes but it adds zero volume. Definitely not a keeper for me

The wand looks very good. but I had used a Rimmel mascara which has a wonderful wand. True, even I feel investing in high end mascaras are nothing but waste. but to get them as free samples is always welcome ;)
