Clinique Lash Doubling Mascara
This mascara is bottled into a deceptively small tube, weighing in at only .14 ounces. Let me assure you, however, that it lasts quite a while. I have been actively using Clinique’s lash doubling mascara for roughly four months, which is the same amount of time that I use …

Boscia No Pores No Shine T-Zone Treatment

Clinique High Impact Curling Mascara
This one has an arched wand. I don’t believe that an arched wand brush can give you improved lashes after you apply it. However, I tried using one. Clinique provides cosmetics which really helps you in achieving fragrance-free formula and anti-allergy formula.
