L’Oreal Voluminous Full Definition Mascara Review

L’Oreal Voluminous Full Definition is the mascara designed to boost volume in the eye lashes. It contains Vitamin E, Pro-Vitamin B5 and Ceramide- R. According to the label, the mascara does not create flake and clumps. L’Oreal has also promised that it is okay for those have sensitive eyes and wear contact lens. 

The brush is said to be technology advanced. It should work like a comb to separate the eyelashes.  So many features in one mascara? It sounds too good to be true. But does it really deliver these features to the user? Let’s know it from the review.

Benefits:

L’Oreal Voluminous Full Definition comes in a bigger tube and its price somewhere between $5 to $7. So buying it can be a win-win situation. You will be getting more mascara in lesser price. L’Oreal Voluminous Full Definition is perfect for all those who prefer natural makeup less look because it brushes the lashes nicely to give them a natural fuller look. The most interesting fact about this mascara is that it contains Vitamin E. This little ingredient actually boosts lash growth and prevents it from falling off. Perhaps, that is why, when I wore the mascara I did not see my lashes coming out.

Full Definition also seems to dry off in the lashes quicker. So after wearing it, there is less to worry about getting stained lids. Another important thing is that such feature makes the mascara touch proof. I actually have a habit of touching my lashes. But interestingly, after wearing this mascara, every time I touched them no black stain came on my finger. It felt as if there was nothing in my lashes. Last, the mascara does give them a volume.

Problems:

There is no way, it is possible to use second or third coat of this mascara on the lashes. The result of doing it is quite terrible. The lashes become over clumpy. Add this with the volume feature and you will get theatrical eyes. No, this term has no connection with being sexy or dramatic. The association is actually with Broadway shows where actors have to wear fake lashes to make their eye expressions more visible to the audiences.  If you have never been to Broadway shows think about moulin rouge ladies or show girls. Yes, the mascara ends up making the lashes like theirs.

The wand or brush of this mascara can be taken as a pain in the neck. It simply has no interest in giving a curled up look to the lashes. Instead, it leaves them straightened. The next problem is that the mascara gives some kind of irritation near the lashes. I am not sure whether every user noticed this problem. L'Oreal mentions that Full definition is okay for sensitive eyes and that they found this result from testing. The test i ran says the opposite.Every time I wore this mascara, I felt a burning sensation around my eyes. However, it was short lived. Yet I will say that Full Definition is not for the sensitive eyes. The irritation simply cannot be ignored. 

Verdict:

L’Oreal Voluminous Full Definition is a bit too ordinary. It performs an average job in embellishing the lashes. Yes, it does give volume, but again the clumps are a bigger problem. Since more than one coat of this mascara cannot be used people who want just a touch up and natural look will find it beneficial. I am having trouble digesting the fact that it gives irritation in the eyes. This makes me little suspicious about what is really in this mascara. For all this, I give it 2 out of 5 stars.
