really love IT tightline and Hello mascaras. I'm older and lashes are thinning greatly. while peruding on Ebay, noticed Hello Lashes Extender mascara. I don't watch much of the Q anymore and have never heard of it. Tried looking it up here and just seemed to be the 'normal' Hello?? Can anyone give me some insight about this. I've ordered from the bay for the free s/h and price (sorry Q) yet I come here for advice from your BRILLIANCE!!!! Thanks for any input.

Hi! I believe that mascara came in a past TSV kit, A262259. I really liked the mascara but it had these fibers that would occasionally get in my eyes. My lashes looked great and really natural however these fibers were sometimes bothersome. I returned the kit for other reasons so I'm not using the mascara anymore.

Mascaras with extension fibers seem to have caught on, there are several brands on the market. I tried the one from Tarte that was a OTO awhile back. For me, my everyday mascara is great, but these fibers add a little more oomph for certain occasions. Like Cardamom, I have experienced some of them falling in my eyes and being annoyed by them. If you don't apply it correctly, it can feel like you're putting lint on your eyelashes. The trick in using them is to apply a base coat of your regular mascara, add the fibers while the mascara is still moist, then seal with a top layer of mascara. That really helped them to not fall off and into my eyes.

thank you, card and glf...this sounds a bit complicated but sounds like it would be lovely. I think I'm just a wee bit beyond that stage. I don't have much to work with and the 'fuzzies' falling doesn't sound very good. For now I've used the Tightline (which I love) and then put either the Halo (are those small mascaras??) OR I've used Voluminous False Lashes and that works really well. Also by mistake once, I put the Tightline on my FOUR lower lashes (which I normally don't even bother with) and THEN used liner and it worked wonderfully!! to my surprise. The Tightline really did make a base for a liner. thank you again for your replies.

I have the mascara, and really don't care for it. I find it to be somewhat clumpy, and not lengthening. I'm using Benefit, Their Real, and that's alot better. My daughters like Bare Minerals mascara, so I'll try that next.
