Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara
SUMMARY OF REVIEWS
e.l.f. Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara is a reliable tubing formula that several creators confirm will not smudge or run, even on lower lashes. Professional makeup artist Nikki La Rose notes it has a creamy, easy-to-work-with consistency, while others praise the compact, controllable brush for neat application. It gives length and a fluttery look, removes easily with water, and is affordable, though the formula is on the drier side and more subtle than dramatic.
