Advantages: Dual purpose brush

Disadvantages: The price

This is a wonderful product from Clinique.
Clinique as a brand do have a very good reputation in the cosmetic industry for producing quality products. Their packaging, in general, is simple yet stylish and this mascara is no exception.

It comes in a long black tube with a silver top and has its product name and description written in silver, on the tube itself.
It costs 12.50 and can be bought at any retailer that stocks 'Clinique' products. It is available in brown but I am describing the black mascara for this review.

This mascara is described as 'High Defintion' and it achieves this claim due to, I believe, the quality of the actual mascara itself and also the brush design.
The brush is split into a normal mascara brush and a separator for the lashes. Thus, when you remove the wand from the tube, both parts of the brush head have mascara on them.

This would not occur normally if you were to use a separator prior to applying mascara and I believe it gives the lashes that extra bit of definiton.

You can choose to separate the lashes first and in so doing place over the lashes one coat of mascara followed by a second coat applied with the regular part of the brush.
You could reverse this process and separate after the initial application or indeed only use one side of the brush.

Thus you can create different looks with one brush!

The mascara is thick enough to give good coverage and definition but not so thick that it causes 'gloops' (that's a technical term by the way) on the lashes - very unattractive.

It does smudge quite easily I find, but then I do have a tendancy to forget Im wearing mascara and rub my eyes when Im tired.
All in all this is a quality product with stylish packaging, but its not cheap.

Summary: Great product, giving good definition to lashes
