Unlocked Instant Extensions - Mascara

Absolutely Not

If I could give it zero stars, I would. Bought through the sale and expected good results. Immediately it was so clumpy on the brush, you couldn’t even see the bristles. I shook it, reopened, and still, so clumpy. I did try to apply it but obviously couldn’t get clear separation, and it ended up flaking throughout the day. Save your money, save the trauma, avoid this at all costs.

Clumpy & flaky- get caution instead from hourglass

It’s super clumpy and product as soon as it gets a bit dry in the tube, flakes easily. I love caution much more.

Pros and cons

Pro: super easy to remove at end of day and doesn't flake during day Con: product is wet, and when applied doesn't produce the magnitude/volume I am used to mascaras

Terrible

Turns to a sticky, liquid texture that can’t be applied.

👍🏼

Lashes look long although it dries up very fast before applying second layer. One thing I would say, when removing my makeup that the lashes come off very easy. No smudging or lash fall out.

Ridiculously good

I get compliments all the time because of this. Comes off like a dream since it is a tubing mascara, doesn’t flake, doesn’t rub onto under eyes, and isn’t clumpy if you don’t put too many layers. Makes me look like I’m genuinely wearing fake lashes. No mascara on the market right now beats this. look

Worldwide unique mascara don’t hesitate to buy it

Every time i use a new mascara i would say this is the best but this time this is the only unique forever mascara, the trick though to have the best long lashes is to be patient as the first coat does not give any wffect as it is water based then wait a 15 second and put the swcond coat and you would be inpresed, i am an obsessed of mascaras and Hourglass killed it really please doon’t ever change the formula

Holy grail makeup product

I’ve gotten compliments on my eyelashes when wearing this mascara which is crazy! Easier tubing mascara to get off with water but literally stays on for 12 hours. 10/10 mascara absolutely my holy grail.

Worst Mascara Ever – A Horror Story in a Tube

I cannot explain how much I hate this mascara. My sister, on the other hand, swears by it—she’s the one who convinced me to buy it. For context, she has very short eyelashes, while mine are long and thick. Maybe that explains our different experiences, but wow, I wish I had never listened to her. I was getting ready for my 25th high school reunion, and my makeup was literal perfection. Then I put on the Hourglass Instant Extensions Mascara, and everything went downhill. Clumps. Spidery lashes. It was like something out of a horror movie. I had to spend ten minutes combing through my lashes with an old mascara wand just to salvage my look. No mascara should be this difficult to use in 2025. My sister later claimed I “opened it in the wrong direction,” which apparently caused my disastrous experience. But honestly, if a mascara is so high-maintenance that you need a tutorial just to open it properly, I’m out. I hated it so much I threw it in the trash immediately. Never again.

Love it!

I will keep buying this mascara. It doesn’t smudged at all. When removing it, no residue.

Eats!

This eats L’Oréal up for breakfast, lunch and dinner! However, I hate how pricey it is… 😩

People are sleeping on this mascara! It literally makes me look like I’m wearing falsies, doesn’t rub off or crumble, doesn’t get clumpy, and keeps my lashes standing up all day
