My very favorite mascara! It has a small brush which I love. Doesn’t clump and comes off easily when it’s time.

Absolutely the best mascara I have ever used. The brush is amazing. It enabled this 72-year old lady to get to each fine eyelash without getting mascara on my face! No clumps on my eyelashes either. Just the right amount comes out each time. I chose to go back and put a second coat on.
Used to be the best mascara ever…

I’m so sad to give this one star - I’ve used this mascara for over 20 years, but recently the formula was changed and it’s 100% different - clumpy, too thick, and difficult to remove. Please bring back the old formula! Thank you.
Love this mascara

This has been my mascara for about a decade and I can tell they changed the formula because now it makes my lashes itch and my eyes burn. Doesn't last as long and clumps more.

This should no longer be called the “original” telescopic mascara. The formula has changed. It now flakes and is not removable with soap based products. I have worn this for 10 years. Very disappointed because there is nothing else that compares to your original product.

(waterproof black) i have very straight lashes that point downward and this is the only mascara i’ve had that actually holds the curl in my lashes and has them looking full all day until i take it off. it can sometimes be hard to remove but if you use liquid oil free makeup remover or a makeup melting balm it’ll come right off!
Best drugstore mascara EVER

I have literally used hundreds of drugstore mascaras over the years. Out of the handful I have liked, they all were discontinued not long after launching which gets very frustrating. Except this one. It has been around for decades and that says that sales are through the roof and it is no wonder why! This mascara rivals many mascaras I have used that cost five times as much. It applies easily, and quickly gives a beautiful clump free lengthening effect. It has a very little volume, but for me I only really need length. And it does not look spidery or fake, the look it gives is flawless but natural. I absolutely love it and have been wearing it for years. I wish the waterproof version was as good - but as many waterproof versions do, it lacked the length and/or volume of the original. Love, love, love this and the price!

Emma - 1 month ago, Verified purchaser
Everyone always hypes this up but tbh it’s not that good. If you put it on normally, it all clumps up at the bottom. When you brush your lashes as your close your eyes though it looks pretty good until it falls. My lashes normally hold a curl great without any mascara so idk just not the best

The Telescopic formula has recently changed making it incredibly clumpy and dry. It does not build well AT ALL like it used to. It’s not even a similar formula. I really thought I got a bad batch. This was my holy grail mascara for the past 15 or so years and now I can’t even use the mascara. I have recommended this mascara to friends and family over the years and they have said the exact same and have all discontinued using. Not to mention, this formula has made my eyelashes fall out and has irritated my skin. PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD FORMULA!!!!!!

Can’t go wrong this this mascara. It holds up better than most of the expensive mascaras out there. No clumps. Applies smoothly and dries quickly. It also doesn’t get stuck on my eyelash curler like other mascaras. A must have in my makeup routine
Been in love with this for years!

Great product for the price. But the tube is also way too tall, so it doesn’t fit in my makeup bag.
