   I’ve used tubing mascara for many years. I hate raccoon eyes, and removing waterproof mascara is a true pain; I can never get it all off and no matter which remover I used, I ended up with irritated eyelids.Tubing mascara has a tendency to dry out faster than regular mascaras, at least in those I’ve used. I’ve used the iconic Loreal Double Extend Tubing mascara, No. 7, NYX, and Elf. All will dry out quickly. All clumped to a certain extent, and all flaked a bit.I want a tubing mascara that flows on, doesn’t start to dry out after the third use, and doesn’t flake. It may be the native formulation of tubing mascara that it starts to dry out quickly; I’ll accept it. But, I really dislike flaking.I’ve just received the Blinc, who BTW, pioneered tubing technology. This is day 5 of use. By day 5, the other tubing mascaras started drying out slightly. So far, Blinc has not. That’s a huge plus since the little clumps are caused by drying out. So far, so good.I’m 62 1/2 years old. My eyelashes are blond to begin with, but they aren’t replaced as quickly as they fall out as you age. My lashes used to touch my eyelids (a pain in the arse, because they always left mascara on my eyelids). They’re sparse compared to my youth. Without mascara, they’re invisible. I need a mascara that will add volume as well as length. So, I chose this formulation of Blinc.What you see in the photo, is 1 coat of Blinc on my upper lashes, and a very light, quick, swipe, of the tip of the applicator, on my bottom lashes. I have a very minimal underlining of shadow under my lower lashes, and no eyelining or shadow lining on my upper lashes. This is my daily makeup routine. It’s a minimal look with just enough makeup to make my eyes show up.The Blinc goes on smoother than any tubing mascara I’ve tried. It certainly lasts, although like other tubing mascaras, if I get wet and it’s warm, the tube will come off. Expect this with all tubing mascaras; they’re formulated to be removed with warm water. The tubes started coming off when I wash and sealed the clear coat on my brand new car, in 82° heat. I was sweating, and it started sprinkling. So, warm + water = removal! I’m not docking stars for this. It’s what we all want, albeit preferably in the shower.I’ve not noticed any increase in clumps since opening the tube. So far, it’s not starting to dry out. By this time, even though I’m always careful about replacing the wand and closing the tube very quickly, I’ve noticed the beginning of drying out in the other brands I’ve tried.The only thing I’ve noticed is a small amount of flaking. While I really dislike flaking, especially while I wear contact lenses, so far Blinc has the least amount. It’s probably in direct proportion to the dryness of the formula. I’ll update if this changes.Compared with the other tubing mascaras I’ve tried, Blinc is far superior. It earns a 4 1/2 star rating (docking 1/2 for minimal flaking). I’ll round up to 5 stars.UPDATE: Well, I’ve just written the initial review and I’m updating to a full 5 stars. I’ve been dragging 20, 40 lb bags of soil in and out of the cat, then blocking out the place for my eventual garage. I’m hot, tired, and sweating a ton. It’s good and warm outside. Note that the Blinc, which I applied 5 hours ago, hasn’t budged. There are no tunes laying on my face, nor is it flaking. I honestly didn’t expect this. I would have tubes all round my eyes from the other mascaras.This is a definite keeper.

   I like the fact my eyes don’t get irritated. Easy to apply and they come off easily with water!

   I have been wearing this mascara for years! Mostly because it never smudged, and I didn’t have to spend the day looking like I had raccoon eyes.I don’t know what happened to this product but my latest purchase which I’m using is awful! I have raccoon eyes every day, and I couldn’t figure out what happened. And then I recall when I’m cleansing my face at night no little tubes are in the sink which was the case for the other, original mascara. I’ve emailed the company and I have not heard a word. Now I’m looking for another tube mascara. If anyone he has any suggestions, recommendations for another, that would be great. I will never buy this again! I would love my money back, but I’ve used it for a couple of weeks before I realized it wasn’t the same. I actually hate this mascara now. And for the money it costs, this is horrible. I do not write reviews like this ever, but I’m very disappointed. It’s just another disappointment in the quality of products today no matter what it is. When they say they really don’t make things like they used to, that’s no joke.

   Want long, luscious eyelashes, try this. Works and tube lasts a long time.

   I had high hopes for this mascara. I have hooded eyes and my eyelids are oily, so regular mascara wasn’t cutting it anymore. I would always get racoon eyes, even if the mascara was waterproof. I stumbled upon tubing mascara, and this one has been highly recommended by several sources. While I love tubing mascara, this one fell a little short. It goes on well, separating each lash, and the brush is great. I was pumped the first time I used it because it went on so well. The problem is that the formula flakes as the day goes on. Several hours into work, I have to get a q-tip and clean off all the flakes. If they could fix the formula to prevent flaking, I would be a customer for life! But, until then, the flaking is annoying and I don’t plan to buy another tube.

   Maybe Blinc mascara is not as good and maybe there are more competitor lash tubing products than in the past? I used to LOVE Blinc. Now I think Thrive coats and extends better. This is still a good mascara.I do love how easily Blinc comes off with water.

   This tubing mascara is the best I’ve used so far. I have never been a fan of the silicone wands because they always make my lashes stick together. I looked for one with a traditional brush and found this. This mascara separates my lashes and they look full. It also does not flake off or smudge under my eyes through the day and I sweat a lot at work with all my PPE on (dental hygienist). So many people have asked if they’re my real lashes since wearing this mascara.

   I have oily eye lids and regular mascara will transfer to my lod throughout the day, not this!

   Best for sensitive eyes – no racoon eyes!
   Tubing mascara is the ONLY solution I have found to avoid racoon eyes. It never runs, so it also never gets in your eyes which is great for sensitive eyes. It is waterproof without requiring make-up remover to remove (also great for sensitive eyes). A little warm water and a light rub with fingertips is all it takes to remove. And yet it it can stand up to a little cry, or rain/snow (as long as you don’t rub at it). Highly recommend. The amplified mascara gives thicker, better coverage than regular blinc mascara.

    Eccellente
    Miglior mascara cha abbia mai provato per effetto e tenuta.Comodissima la possibilità di toglierlo semplicemente tirandolo via con acqua calda.Ormai uso solo questo indipendentemente da avere necessità dell’effetto waterproof.
