Hi Darlings, today’s post is going to be the review of the L’Oreal Unlimited Mascara.
This mascara has recently come out and I mean, it looks quite intriguing, so although I’m still obsessed with my Maybelline Total Temptation and I wasn’t planning on switching mascara anytime soon this one really caught my eyes.
It usually takes me awhile to decide whether I like a mascara or not so it took me about a week to figure out this one and today I’m sharing with you what I think.
You can get it here for 14,62$
PACKAGING
The packaging, of course, is what intrigued me the most, it looks like an ampoule (not sure why) and the handle bents, it kind of reminds me of the Lancome Grandiose Eyeliner.
I don’t like it because the handle is too short so it touches the cheek when you are applying the mascara and it makes it kind of awkward so I’ve been using it straight which defeats all purpose of it.
The actual brush is made of silicone and it’s really flexible, I always manage to get dirty no matter what I do, so not a fan of that either.
FORMULA
The formula is quite liquidy and very black, if you are not careful it tends to transfer on your lids when you apply it. But once it dries it doesn’t smudge or flake off.
EFFECT & APPLICATION
I do two coats to get the best results.
This mascara is very lengthening but it doesn’t volumize much, which doesn’t look good on me. I also find that it’s not the best at holding a curl.
It’s quite clumpy which sadly makes my lashes look spidery.
LASTING POWER
This mascara lasts all day on me without flaking or smudging.
I find it fairly easy to remove with micellar water, I don’t have the black halo around my eyes when I wake up.
RATING:
- Colour: 10/10
- Longevity: 10/10
- Application: 6/10
- Packaging: 4/10
- Effect: 5/10
- Formula: 7/10
GRADE: C
Sadly, I don’t like this mascara, it looks too clumpy on me and it makes me feel like I have ten long lashes but no definition at the roots. I also think the packaging is quite awkward and overall pretty useless. That being said my sister likes it so I wouldn’t consider it a flop, it’s just personal preference.

Uh oh, I had a look at this one and was intrigued but doubt I’ll pick it up now. I’ve seen your other post on Maybelline Total Temptation; this might be the next one I try. Good review! 🙂

Thank you so much for reading both, I seriously swear by the total temptation ahah xx
This stuff is the worst stuff I have ever bought!!!! Right from start clumps everyone I used it horrible
Are you talking about the L’Oreal unlimited or the Maybelline total temptation? I’m sorry you had this bad reaction either way
I am always on the lookout for a good mascara; thanks for the info on this one. I think I will take your word for it and stick with what I am currently using for now.
It’s a bit risky, you either love it or you hate it! Xx
I’m thankful for the review. I hate purchasing make-up only to use it once and don’t like the outcome. I love the Total Temptation too!
Best mascara ever! ?
I have this still waiting to be used. Mascara backlog at the moment! That’s a shame that it wasn’t for you x
Ohh let me know how you like it, my sister loves it so I guess mascara is really personal preference xx
Invece a me non dispiace…sono abituata a mascara un po’ più consistenti devo dire, ma questo non è malaccio. Mi piace moltissimo anche il packaging. Si leva con un po’ di fatica, quello sì.
Si hai ragione, mia sorella lo ama è su di me che fa un effetto bruttino!
I’m so glad I read this…bummed it didn’t work out. Thanks for an honest review!
Thank you for reading xx
I’m not sure I like L’Oréal mascaras either. I’ve tried two, but I feel Maybelline really has my heart when it comes to drug store eye makeup haha
Ahahah totally agree, Maybelline mascaras (or makeup in general XD) tend to do wonders for me.. I don’t think there’s one I don’t like
what an interesting shape, the handle DOES look a bit short though, you’re right! your bare lashes are gorgeous girl ?? i feel like clumpy mascara is such a preference!!
Not too clumpy but I totally agree, thank you xx
I haven’t seen this mascara yet, but it’s so interesting that it bends. It makes such a different to your lashes, can’t get over how volumised they look Xx
Such an interesting product. I don’t really like that effect on me but it’s definitely there xx
