My Daily Mascara
By Honey Coffee on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2020
Apparently I've bought 9 tubes of this on Amazon, and I am about to buy another! I've used this for about 5 years and it's my go-to mascara. I love the small brush and performance. There are no smudges under my eyes at the end of the day and I have normal/oily skin. (My other sometimes-used tube mascara L'oreal Beauty Tubes, does smudge a little). It provides good volume and length, but it's not dramatic - for that rare occasion I use L'oreal Lash Paradise or something like that. One thing to note is when you open a new tube, the formula is a bit thin. But after a couple of weeks the formula thickens and then it's perfect! I still use it from day one but I wanted to let people know that if they initially don't like the consistency. Removal is SO EASY with just water. Some people are using eye makeup remover, which has oil and I think that will prevent water from directly contacting the tubes, that's why they're having trouble. Water softens the tubes (let them soak 15-20 seconds) and they fall right off with light sweeping with my fingertips. In the shower I just wash my face as usual and it comes off easily. If I'm washing my face at the sink, I'll hold the warm damp washcloth to my eyes for about 10 seconds and gently wipe away. I use cleansing oil and foaming wash, and neither have gotten in the way of removal.

Not worth it
By ThornyRose on Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2023
I love tubing mascaras and have been using tubing mascaras by many brands. My favorite ones are by tart and Thrive cosmetics (TC). I’m going to rate the 3 main things the DHC mascara claims to do (smudge proof, easy to remove, lengthen) + Overall review of the mascara as a whole compared to the tart and Thrive cosmetics: 1)Smudge proof: Yes, 100%. It is toe-to-toe with TC in this aspect. The Tarte also doesn’t smudge until you try to wash it off 2)Easy to remove: Average. It sure does come off after a bit of massaging with water but takes for rubbing than the thrive mascara. It doesn’t smudge under eyes (raccoon eyes) like the Tarte does when washing off. Problem is it comes off as tiny little pieces that can get stuck in your eyes rather than larger pieces that can be picked off easily (as is the case with thrive cosmetics). 3) Lengthening The DHC product is absolutely useless in this aspect. I mean I was not expecting volume as the product doesn’t make any claims to that, but I did expect length, which it did NOT give as you can see clearly in the pics I attached compared to my natural lashes and the other two brands. It just made my lashes look spidery 4)Overall Review: Waste of money. While it is smudge proof and easily removable which is the bare minimum you’d want from a tubing mascara, it just doesn’t look good. I mean you be the judge based on pics (same application technique was used for all 3 brands, no lash curler or primer used, and 3 coats was applied for each brand). Here’s my recs: All three rands are smudge proof. Other qualities ranked from best to worst Volume: Tarte>Thrive>DHC Length: Thrive>Tarte>DHC Easily removed: Thrive>DHC>Tarte Price points only vary a little : DHC ($19), Tarte ($24), Thrive ($25)
