Amore Mio 24k Gold Black Mascara (Suitable for Contact Lens)

I received this mascara from an auction app that I have recently become addicted to. It is a fiber mascara that is one step, not two. I absolutely love this. It makes my lashes super long, while still looking more natural than other mascaras that can be clumpy. It allows you to keep working on building length and volume as long as you don't allow it to dry between coats - even if it does dry, it's still somewhat easy to work with. It's waterproof and holds up very well. Unlike many waterproof ones, it washes off more easily and doesn't dry out my lashes. It also doesn't flake or smudge. This is one of the only mascaras I've used that is actually true to its word. My tube dried out a little more quickly than I expected, but I also keep it in my purse and subject it to constant temperature changes. I believe that if I kept it inside (but not in my bathroom) that it would last a lot longer. This is definitely my new favorite mascara.

Best mascara I have ever used and I have used them All. The formula is the perfect middle between wet and dry, and great to layer with other mascara. Stretches my wimpy, straight lashes to impressive lengths. I use it alone for a natural long look or paired with a volumizing mascara (Lorac Cobra this week) for thickness. For as cheap as it was, it's definitely worth trying. (Under 4 bucks on ebay.) Don't know about water proof but doesn't smudge or budge a bit and I have the dreaded oily lids/skin. I just use a bit of coconut oil for removal and it comes right off. It is by far my Holy Grail mascara.. this week ;) btw, tried adding a photo with this review but not working so well. I'll keep trying.
