I have a confession…I am not the best at doing eye makeup, which is why Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara has become my beauty BFF.  When I refer to doing bad at eye makeup, I want to clarify that I am referring to eye shadow, so I rely heavily on my lashes.

Since I rely so heavily on my lashes to bring my makeup look together, I am a complete freak about making sure whatever mascara I use doesn’t bleed and create raccoon eyes.    I have tried all brands, formulas (waterproof and regular), and colors.  Enter Clinique’s Bottom Lash Mascara, $10 at Sephora.  This is a formula that doesn’t budge – I have never used a formula for my bottom lashes that worked so incredibly well.  The mascara gently sculpts your lower lashes, lengthens them and even though your lashes will be stretched to maximize their effect, the color doesn’t flake onto your lower eyelid.

A couple of things to note – this is a tiny tube.  When I first received it I was shocked at how tiny it was.  Also, the brush is teeny, tiny, itty bitty.  It is great to work those lower lashes, but it is so tiny I was surprised when I saw it so I thought I would mention that as well.

In a nutshell, I freaking love this stuff!  It is not often that I buy 2 tubes of an item to make sure that if they do discontinue this item, I have backups – however I did just that with this product.  Those amazing Pinterest pins featuring breathtaking eyeshadow looks are not something I have been able to master yet, but that will come (I hope.)

In the meantime, I am getting older and I need all the help I can get, so I am LOVING this mascara and definitely recommend trying it.
