Sometimes, it’s good to be like everyone else – everyone likes L’Oreal Voluminous® Mascara, and you will too! Uniquely formulated to resist clumping, soften lashes, and build incredible volume, this formula leaves lashes so soft and full; all eyes will be on you! Safe for sensitive eyes and skin, this formula is suitable for contact lens wearers and is ophthalmologist tested and fragrance free.
Who It’s For: Recommended for all lash lengths.
How It Works:
- Panthenol protects lashes, locks in moisture, and promotes cell renewal.
- Ceramides are necessary for water retention in the lash’s hair cells to prevent dehydration and for proper cell regulation, which helps restore hair’s barrier function.
- Cera alba is a natural emollient to soften and hydrate lashes.
- Stearic acid is a thickener and an emollient to soften and hydrate lashes.
- Acacia detangles lashes and reduces buildup.
- Dimethicone imparts emolliency and is a water-binding agent to keep lashes soft and smooth.
Suggested Use: Place brush at the base of your lashes and gently sweep up to the tip. No need to pump the wand. Washes off easily with soap and water.

Complexion: FairLancome Definicils, only cheaper!
"As you may or may not know, L'Oreal and Lancome are owned by the same corporate parent, Cosmair. Oftentimes L'Oreal will come out with a "drugstore version" of a high end Lancome product. Sometimes, the cheaper version is just as good, sometimes not. Definicils has been my favorite Lancome mascara for decades. Other Lancome mascaras just don't do it for me. I am especially appalled by the newer formulas that include FRAGRANCE (yes, I'm talking to YOU, Definicils Precious Cells and Hypnose Drama! I don't need lashes that smell like roses and mascara that makes my eyes water). L'Oreal's take on the original, classic Definicils is Voluminous, and it's just as great in my opinion. Let's just hope some brainiac in Corporate doesn't muck it up with PERFUME!"

"This is a great mascara. It honestly looks like you're wearing falsies. L'Oreal Paris has the same superior quality of other French beauty brands but at a more reasonable price. Thus, I recommend that you select from this brand when shopping for drugstore beauty products. This mascara gives you great volume and still adds significant length to your lashes. I usually use this volume mascara to the base of my lashes and wiggle back and forth. Then I will take a lengthening mascara and apply from the middle to top of lashes. Its will make a great combo of thick and long. Everyone should have this mascara in their makeup bag! "
