Physicians Formula Organic Wear Lash-Boosting All Natural Mascara, Lifts, Lengthens, For Sensitive Eyes, Dermatologist Tested - Natural Origin Black

I was not at all sure about this when I first pulled it out of the box - the flat top, where you hold onto the wand felt weird and awkward the first couple times I used it. It only took a few tries to get used to, however, and the mascara is totally worth the effort!I have been very frustrated by "clean" mascaras (organic/all natural) because so few of them are actually dark! They tend to have a "natural" effect... i.e. they do very little of the volumizing or emphasizing of one's lashes that is so appealing in standard mascara! This one actually is an appreciably dark black, and adds both volume and emphasis. It takes more than one coat to the get look I want, but after two or three layers it looks just as good as the (sadly toxic) stuff I used to use.It does not irritate my eyes at all, and comes off completely cleanly and easily with a little bit of coconut oil. When smudged, it is also easily cleaned up and retouched.It DOES smudge - do not even think about rubbing your eyes or crying with this stuff on.I did not take off any stars for that, however, as it is apparently (and unfortunately) unavoidable in clean mascaras. Extensive reading of reviews for every mascara that gets safe ratings in the Skin Deep database sadly supports my own experience - easy smudge is just part of the price paid for not putting nasty chemicals near your eyes. *sigh*That said, as noted above, at least this mascara actually creates the look I have so missed being able to create and never irritates my eyes. Also, you can't beat the price! I was paying more than twice this much for another clean brand that smudged just as much and wasn't as dark.This is a good deal and a good product - definitely the best I've encountered so far, and I plan to stick with it!

For a long time, Neutrogena Healthy Lengths mascara has been my go to, but of late, I can't get seem to get it, always OOS on line and in physical stores. I realize there are some supply chain issues, but I really needed to replace my mascara. I am not into paying a lot for mascara, as I find it is important to replace at least in a 3 month period for eye safety. So, I decided to try this product. So glad I did! I love the mascara wand-it is exactly like the wand in a sample of Dior mascara I got from Sephora. I loved that wand-mascara went on beautifully. So, when this wand appeared, I was sooo happy. This mascara is great. Goes on beautifully, and does NOT irritate my sensitive eyes. I am a contact lens wearer as well, and and it does not bother eyes with lenses in either. So glad I gave it a try, think it is a winner, and I am no longer saddy face about not finding the Neurtrogena product!

I do really like this mascara. It does a good job of separating the lashes and giving good length. My only complaint is by the end of the day is does start to flake some.

I bought this before I ran out, and return window was one day over closed. My fault, but went to use this morning and there was no stopper inside to run your brush through. So it is thick & yucky trying to apply. Almost impossible unless you want it in your eye. Not sure if it's this lot or just a freak deal!! There is no way to transfer to another tube. Be cautious in ordering, thank goodness it wasn't expensive.

I tried this because I'm supposed to wear falsies for dance gigs, but sometimes it's just not worth the trouble (& I liked the original formula too). So I use this & it's effective in giving the look of falsies with 2 layers.It'll clump with 2 layers & smudges even in about 1/2 hour before we start dancing (but moisturizing & no waterproof type claims anyhow).If you wear mascara just for daily use, 1 layer's plenty. Just have qtips or something around. I'll still use this before long-lasting stuff with chemicals.If I had my way I'd never even wear mascara, but removes easily with olive oil & my lashes feel healthy & fine.Choose the battle that suits your preferences& needs best I guess : )

I really wanted to love this because of the clean, non-toxic formula, which is the main reason I bought it. Unfortunately, the results just weren’t what I hoped for.It tends to go on a little clumpy, and it doesn’t really give me the length or definition I get from some other mascaras I’ve tried. It’s okay for a very natural look, but if you’re looking for big lashes, this one probably isn’t it.The tube also never closed all the way, which made it dry out a lot faster than other mascaras as well. I do appreciate the non-toxic ingredients, but I’ll be trying a different brand next time.

I miss the formula that was offered prior to 2021; however, I have adjusted to this similar product. It does not smear even when it is a long and hot day. The formula does not have a strong scent which is a requirement for me. :) The mascara applies evenly and it's easy to tell when the bottle has run its course - the mascara will no longer apply evenly and leaves clumps.

I love that this is organic, it didn’t burn my eyes like conventional mascara. The brush style isn’t a kind that I like, it didn’t elongate eyelashes the way others do. My only real complaint, though, is that it’s not very held together, it’s clumpy, doesn’t stick well to the lashes and flakes off. Like, my eyelids and under eye are covered in pieces of mascara after application, it’s wild. Origins was the brand I used to use and their’s was AMAZING. I miss it, and unfortunately they don’t make it anymore.
