[Etude House] Dr. Mascara Fixer For Perfect Lash 6ml #01

As the title suggests, I bought this because I ran out of my wonderful Ulta Raincoat Mascara and was looking for an affordable dupe. I have long, healthy lashes but they’re very straight and often resist holding a curl. I’ve tried SO many waterproof mascaras over the years and just haven’t been happy with their curling capabilities. I’m happy to say that this Mascara Fixer has been a perfect replacement and is now a staple for me! It’s easy to apply, holds curl beautifully, is very waterproof, and is slightly lengthening. One thing to note is that it leaves a small amount of white cast on the lashes, which makes wearing it alone really... strange. I personally don’t mind the white cast because I layer colored mascara over it and it helps bring out the vibrancy of the pigments. I have also tried using it on top of mascaras but this never yielded good results for me. For removal, since this is a heavy duty waterproof mascara, I would not recommend using just a plain oil nor a cold cream. It just won’t be strong enough to fully remove this and you may damage and loose lashes trying to get it all off. Instead, I’d opt for a dedicated oil cleaner like the Hadalabo Gokujun Cleansing Oil, which I personally use and it works wonderfully. I’ve seen a few reviewers stating concern about the amount in the tube being minimal; I can’t personally comment on this because I don’t apply mascara daily, but I’ve used this quite a few times since purchasing and I seem to still have a lot of product remaining. All in all, I think this is a great mascara. It does what it’s advertised to do and does it well without charging you an arm and a leg. I will definitely be a repeat customer and I highly recommend it! *This is not a sponsored review. I bought this item with my own money and I’m leaving this review of my own volition.

For the reader's reference, I am Korean with straight and short eyelashes. Therefore, it is difficult for me to find a mascara that is able to keep my eyelashes curled. However, a friend suggested me this product, so I tried it out. This product claims to be transparent and waterproof, while volumizing and helping the lashes stay curled. Below, I will describe each of its function and result. Transparency: Yes! It is completely clear. Waterproof: Yes! (Because it is not water based, this is what enables it to keep the eyelashes curled) Volumize: Yes! Although, I might add that the volume of my eyelashes weren't drastically changed, there was still a noticeable difference. Curl: Yes! It was able to keep my eyelashes curled throughout the entire day. Instructions: use as a base before applying actual mascara Overall, I love this product. It does what it claims to do and it comes at a very affordable price. However, my only warning is that it is VERY difficult to take off; if you use face wipes or oil, it may take a while for it to actually come off. Thus, I suggest a cleansing cream; one that I absolutely love is the Banila Clean It Zero.

I have been using this mascara fixer and it does a solid job keeping my lashes looking good all day. After I put on mascara, I swipe this over my lashes, and it helps hold the curl without making them feel stiff or crunchy. It also stops my mascara from smudging or flaking, which is a big win for me. The brush is small and easy to use, so I can get right to the roots and tips without messing up my mascara. It dries pretty fast too, so I don’t have to wait around before doing the rest of my makeup. I like that it is clear, so it works with any mascara color or style. One thing I noticed is that it does not add volume or length on its own, but that is not what it is supposed to do anyway. it’s just a fixer to keep your mascara in place. Also, the tube is small, but you only need a little each time. Overall, this is a nice little product if you want your mascara to stay put and your lashes to keep their curl without feeling crunchy. It’s simple, effective, and a nice step to add to my makeup routine.

My problem is my lashes touch the top of my cheeks and also my eyelids, so my mascara is always coming off there.. even waterproof leaves marks.. This works great for keeping my mascara on without making my lashes longer. I just used the regular mascara, not waterproof and.. no marks!

It fixed your lashed curled and lifted. Use it after curling your lashes well first, then the lashes stays up and curled all day.

This product is amazing at making ur mascara non smudge and also keeping eyebrows in place. I have to fill in my eyebrows and when I dab a bit of this stuff on it will keep my eyebrows on for like 3 days. It also makes them nice and fluffy

Dieses Produkt ist unfassbar genial ! Ich habe asiatische kurze Wimpern, die nach unten wachsen. Bisher hat keine Wimpernzange, keine Wimperntusche, konnte meine Wimpern oben halten. Ich habe sonst Schwierigkeiten, dass man meine Wimpern überhaupt sehen kann. Durch dieses Produkt bleiben meine Wimpern den ganzen Tag oben und haben einen sehr schönen Schwung. Mit diesem Produkt kann ich auch jede Wimperntusche benutzen, die ich will. Ich habe vorher so viel Geld für verschiedene Wimperntuschen ausgegeben und bin froh, dass es vorbei ist. Der Trick ist auch das Produkt erst trocknen zu lassen und dann die Wimpern zu tuschen. Probiert es ruhig aus, es ist das Geld auf jeden Fall wert! Und benutzt danach make up Entferner mit Öl, dann kriegt ihr es später besser von den Wimpern ab.

Just received. Totally empty tube.. there's a very little amount of the fluid which I could realized after squeezing the whole tube. waste of money.. please don't buy it.
