L'Oréal False Lash Superstar X Fiber Mascara Review

I've always wanted longer lashes, but sometimes the fuss of applying false lashes isn't worth your time. Don't get me wrong, I love a good pair of falsies, but on a daily basis it's just not do-able. What would you do if I told you that you could have a similar effect everyday without messing around with clue and a pair of applicators? L'Oréal Paris have released the False Lash Superstar X Fiber Mascara (£10.99)* to create the ultimate false lash look without the hassle of putting on falsies everyday, or having your weekend appointment for eyelash extensions.

I've never used a fiber mascara before so went in expecting the worst; fibers falling into your eyes and clumpy lashes that reminded me of the spider lash trend about ten years ago in school. This is not the same as the fibers stick to the lashes to extend the length whilst keeping the look natural. L'Oréal have brought out their most 'x-treme' false lash mascara to help you build up length whilst increasing the volume for your own desired look. Because of their two step method, you can repeat the steps to build up the look. They say that it's "so excessive, it's obsessive".

The first step is using the volumising black primer to thicken the look of each individual lash to build up the volume. After using this the lashes still look natural and fluttery, but if you were looking for a more dramatic look you can keep building it up. The second step is using the mascara that has a formula enriched with 20 times more fibers than the original Superstar Mascara for extreme length. This step aims to make the lashes appear longer and lifted, for the most 'x-treme' false lash look. This is done by pressing the wand into the lashes to help the fibers stick, increasing the length and volume.

There has been a ton of hype around this product, as it launched this month. I was keen to try it out for myself, seen as 8/10 women they surveyed agreed that it was as dramatic as wearing false lashes. I'd say it was just as good as wearing a pair of natural fluttery lashes, but again I've not built it up to look like I'm wearing full-on lashes yet. So far, so good. No fibers in my eyes, no clumpy lashes and plenty of compliments that my lashes look amazing.
