L’Oreal recently sent me the newest addition to their line up of mascara’s: Telescopic Explosion. I will start off by telling you that I do indeed like this mascara, but I will burst your bubble if you think your lashes will look like Penelope Cruz’s on their website (around these parts, we call that PhotoShop and/or eyelash extensions.) Aside from that, let’s talk about why I loved Telescopic Explosion and how it made my lashes pop…
First let’s take the wand. It resembles Givenchy’s Phenom’Eyes, except it is more wallet friendly. The round tip and bristles also have the lash separating effect that we have come to know over the last 2 years as mascara wands have evolved.
Second, this mascara captures every lash, big and small, from the inner point of your eye all the way over to the outer point. In combination with covering each lash and separating the lashes, I found that my lashes looked flirtier and added that POW to them.
For only around $7, I have to say that L’Oreal definitely delivers great results that are worth more than the purchase price. Have you tried it?

i had high hopes for the “elongated torture ball”
but unfortunately found that this clumped horribly. i should say that i COULD get a good result but it took too much patience and wiping off excess with a tissue. mine went back to cvs. oh well! still on the prowl for the HG. thanks for the review!
lol to torture ball.
Have you looked at my encyclopedia of mascara’s on the facebook fan page? Sometimes I think I get close to HG, but then nope!
This mascara sounds great! I might go out and get one to try! Wonder if it is as good as the vibrating Mascaras?? I am loving them at the moment!!
