In light of airport security reducing the amount of liquids and gels allowed, this gem of an invention should make a return to the shelves. It doesn't fall into either category and women who really need to take make up on the plane would do well to consider the cake mascara.

I used to use this in the 70s but had a hard search this year trying to find any company that makes mascara in this form. Thank goodness for La Femme! I bought the brown and black and know it will last me a nice long time. I use a an eyelash curler and the combination of that with the cake brush, it makes for lovely long, unclogged lashes.

I USED to love this mascara. It gave me totally separated and long lashes, very natural looking. The brush was key. NOTE: THEY CHANGED THE BRUSH!!! Now they include two brushes that are nothing like the little toothbrush-like one that is so wonderful. They now include 2 mascara spoolies, like you would get in a tube of liquid mascara. THIS DOES NOT WORK with cake mascara and I intend to return the item ASAP. What were they thinking???

Very happy to have found a cake mascara after all this time - it works just fine, and does not become contaminated as all my tube mascaras have done, on a regular basis- leading to sore eyes. Since using La Femme's product, no eye problems at all. Hurrah!

Actually, I bought this mascara for the brush. When I got it, it was a different brush - not the one pictured, but a standard mascara wand - so it kind of defeated the purpose! The mascara itself is fine.

I stumbled across this little item while browsing, decided to try it, and I have to say, I don't think I'll ever go back to the tube. For those like me who are not familiar with this type of mascara you should know you have to first moisten it with water. It takes a little bit more effort, and no, you can't put it on fast in the car like you can tube mascara, but that's a minor criticism because the quality is excellent. I use it as a liquid eyeliner and it works great. Like having two products in one. It doesn't clump, comes off easy, and I no longer have to worry about my mascara running out. It's worth all that extra international shipping that I paid for it while ordering overseas.
