MY 2 CENTS
Before I talk about all the things that are terribly wrong with this mascara, I would just like to point out the packaging. It’s a squeeze tube! I really love this about this particular mascara.  It’s innovative and feels less wasteful.

On to what I find awful about the mascara…

The formula is very wet and very clumping. No if, ands, or buts about it. Yes, it lengthens the lashes but it turns my lashes into spider legs.
I think the brush plays a role in it’s clumping factor. It doesn’t do a good enough job of separating as it lengthens.

I also have a difficult time removing this mascara. Even oil based makeup removers doesn’t do the trick. It rolls off the lashes and leaves little balls of mascara all over my face. At the end of the day/night, the last thing I want is the extra hassle of vigorously rubbing and tugging at my eyes to get it off.

Eyeko Skinny Brush Mascara get’s a big MEH! from me. It’s not something I would consider purchasing at it’s $23 price point.

Have you tried this mascara? Leave me a comment with your thoughts!

    Great review. I do think the tube is a neat idea also. I have a mascara from Hard Candy that is in a similar tube. I haven’t tried it yet because I am a mascara hoarder and am trying to use the ones I’ve already opened first! Kat

      I do the same! I don’t open another tube unless I’ve used up the one I have.

      Thanks for your reply, Kat!

    Hi, I havent tried the mascara but have tried the skinny eyeliner which is pretty good, I would say average or the price. Interesting idea for the mascara but I have enough struggle with regular!

      I’ve tried the Eyeko Skinny Eyeliner as well, it’s good but dried out way too fast!
