I was looking to buy an eyelash serum and came across a set that included both a clear and a black serum. I thought using them together would be beneficial, so I decided to purchase it. What attracted me most was that the black serum could be used as a mascara alternative. I was hoping it would be less irritating than regular mascara while still helping my lashes grow longer. First off, I experienced no eye irritation whatsoever, and it was easy to remove. My eyes felt very comfortable throughout use. Even after long hours out and about, it didn't smudge at all. Using both the clear and black serums together, I noticed my lashes became stronger and less prone to falling out!
ConsDue to my straight lashes, the curling effect wasn't as strong as I'd hoped. After curling my lashes and applying the black serum, they would droop not long after. I found a workaround by curling my lashes, applying the black serum, letting it dry slightly until my lashes stiffened, and then curling again. This improved the curl retention, but it still didn't match the effect of a regular mascara. Since it's essentially a serum, I didn't expect it to curl and lengthen as well as a mascara would. Knowing this in advance, I was quite satisfied with its performance.
TipI think this product would be perfect for those who've had lash perms or extensions! It's also great for a natural look, light makeup days, or for those who find traditional mascaras too heavy.

I use this instead of mascara after getting a lash lift. It doesn't irritate or sting my eyes. The price is fantastic - I've repurchased it several times after using it up or losing it. It comes off easily with foam cleanser. When I got my lash lift, the salon owner recommended using this black lash serum instead of mascara, and it really doesn't damage my lashes. Especially after a lash lift, using an eyelash curler + mascara + eye makeup remover can really break and damage your lashes when you rub them off.
ConsYou can't see how much product is left. I wish the brush was thinner and more precise.
TipWhen applying additional coats, let it dry a bit between layers like you would with mascara.

When my eyes are tired, I don't feel like applying mascara even with a full face of makeup, and I certainly can't be bothered with false lashes. This has left my eye makeup looking a bit lackluster, but this product is perfect as a low-maintenance mascara alternative. First off, it's essentially a nourishing serum, so it's much less irritating than mascara. I wear soft contact lenses and experience no eye irritation whatsoever. It's also much easier to remove, which is a big plus. Of course, you can't expect the same intense fixing or curling power as a mascara. What it does is coat your lashes with a black color, making them appear more defined. And trust me, the difference is noticeable compared to bare lashes! That's why people with permed lashes will probably see more dramatic results than those with natural lashes. There's a similar product from the Coxx brand that I've used and liked, but this Holika one feels a bit more intense. The black tinting is more pronounced, and the brush feels more like a traditional mascara wand. If we rate bare lashes as 0 and meticulously applied curling mascara as 10, this product would be about a 4 or 5. Considering how comfortable it feels on the eyes and the peace of mind knowing you're nourishing your lashes, I'd say it's definitely worth recommending!
ConsIt can't be a 100% substitute for mascara. Naturally, it falls short in terms of staying power, fixing ability, and curling effect compared to regular mascara. I don't personally see this as a drawback, but I'm mentioning it for reference.
