  • “My immediate thought is that it looks like it is wanting to define everything. It's not applying tons of product right out of the gate, but it's not clumping anything together at all, which is kind of nice to see”20:35–20:40
  • “I'm seeing a lot of length. I'll get close in in a second, but wow. That second coat is giving me a lot of additional length over here. I don't feel like it's dropping my curl”21:40–21:46
  • “If you get this and you go on with that first coat and you feel like, 'Ah, it's just one of those natural religious defining mascaras.' Please continue on with another coat because that's where the magic starts to happen”
  • “I just feel like compared to Elf Lash Extender, it's giving me a little bit more of a big lash look, you know? It's definitely more lengthening”22:15–22:22
  • “Honestly, the mascaras really jumping out at me. I love how lengthening that turned out to be. Um, just really tremendous length. Did not totally drop my curl”23:52–23:58
  • “I feel like perhaps what impressed me most in this video and just immediately knocked my socks off most was probably this mascara”25:54–25:59

  • “It's very buildable, so you can get more of a natural look, but you can also get a lot of drama, volume, length”4:29–4:33
  • “You can apply this one, do the rest of your makeup, and if you're like, 'No, I want a little bit more.' you can go in and add more afterwards, and it still layers”4:43–4:46
  • “It doesn't flake, it doesn't smudge, or removes like a tubing mascara”4:52–4:55
  • “This is my top recommendation for sure. I guess I should say my top tubing mascara recommendation lately”4:53–4:59

  • “It's just like an all-around good mascara. You get length, volume, drama, but it doesn't necessarily look super clumpy”
  • “I feel like it lasts on the lashes really well”33:51–33:55
  • “I think this one probably stays in place a little better and it's not as heavy, so I feel like my lashes are not as prone to falling when I use this one”
  • “I definitely plan on repurchasing that at some point”

  • “I weirdly like this on my bottom lashes”9:47–9:51
  • “It kind of like works to define them really well”

  • “My gripe with this one is that they changed the formula, I feel like, and this flakes by the end of the day”34:46–34:54
  • “This used to be the only mascara I would use. I kind of want to use it for nostalgic purposes, but it just got so dry”35:02–35:08

  • “If you like this and you're a fan of this and it's a little wetter than this, I do think it's a good mascara. If you're not going to wear it for longer than eight hours, it's a good workday mascara, but longevity is not there anymore”36:05–36:08

Brand note

Essence is the drugstore brand that keeps surprising creators with how good the formulas are for the money. The Super Peptide Glossy Lip Treatment comes up most often — a non-sticky, high-shine gloss with a smooth, hydrating feel that people compare favorably to high-end options. The Soft Touch Butter Bronzer also gets consistent praise for its soft, blurring, easy-to-blend texture. The main trade-off across the line is limited shade ranges, which creators note can exclude a lot of skin tones.
