Full details
This Maybelline Mascara - Extra Black is designed for anyone seeking a dramatic, fuller lash look with conditioning benefits. Its key advantage is the multiplying lash effect combined with a nourishing oil-infused formula that prevents dryness.

FAQs
What makes this mascara 'Luscious'?
The 'Luscious' refers to the oil-infused formula containing Rose Hip, Safflower, and Argan Oil, which conditions and softens lashes, contributing to a luxurious feel and appearance.
How does the fanning brush work?
The patented fanning brush has ten layers of bristles specifically designed to fan out lashes, separate them, and reach even the shortest ones for a full, multiplied effect without clumping.
Is this mascara waterproof?
The product information provided does not specify if this mascara is waterproof. It is described as a 'liquid ink' formula, suggesting good color payoff and adherence.
Can I use this mascara if I have sensitive eyes?
While the formula is enriched with nourishing oils, the intense black pigment might be a consideration for very sensitive eyes. Patch testing or using a gentler formula might be advisable if you have extreme sensitivity.
How many coats can I apply for maximum volume?
You can apply multiple coats for increased volume and drama. For best results and to avoid clumping, allow each coat to dry slightly before applying the next.
What are the key oils in the formula?
The key nourishing oils are Rose Hip Oil, Safflower Oil, and Argan Oil, which work to soften and condition lashes.
Will this mascara make my lashes fall out?
The formula is designed to condition lashes. When used correctly and removed gently, it should not cause lash loss. Proper removal techniques are important.
Troubleshooting
Mascara appears dry or clumpy in the tube.
This can happen if the cap is not sealed properly. Try adding a drop of saline solution or contact lens solution to moisten the formula. If it remains dry or excessively clumpy, it may be time to replace the mascara.
Mascara smudges easily after application.
Ensure you are applying it to clean, dry lashes. Allow each coat to dry for a few seconds before applying the next. Avoid touching your lashes immediately after application. If smudging persists, consider using a waterproof primer or a different mascara formula.
Difficulty removing the intense black color.
Use a dedicated oil-based or micellar water makeup remover. Apply a generous amount to a cotton pad, hold it over your closed eye for 10-15 seconds to dissolve the mascara, then gently wipe downwards. Avoid harsh rubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
This mascara requires no setup. Simply twist the wand out of the tube.
Compatibility:
This mascara is compatible with most makeup removers. For best results, use an oil-based or dual-phase makeup remover to fully eliminate the intense black pigment.
Care:
- Storage: Store the mascara upright at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.
- Hygiene: To prevent contamination, avoid pumping the wand in and out of the tube, as this introduces air and can dry out the formula. Always close the cap tightly after use.
- Lifespan: Mascara should typically be replaced every 3-6 months to maintain hygiene and performance. Discard if the formula changes in smell, texture, or color.
