What the gurus are saying

The experts found the dual-sided brush design genuinely novel and appreciated the formula's restraint, describing it as more wispy and gentle than heavy. The verdict splits on what that means in practice: those after a soft, natural lash look find it hits the mark, while anyone seeking dramatic volume may find it falls short of the "bounce" the name promises. The mascara builds gradually rather than intensely, which suits a more everyday aesthetic.

"It's a hybrid brush, so you have a more comb side on one end and then a more brushy, fluffy side, which is interesting to me. It seems like a nice formula. I haven't used it yet but it seems like not too wet, which I always appreciate. I like the split design, it's literally one half of the wand is a comb and one half is a brush, which is intriguing to me. I'm always skeptical of mascaras because of my lashes, but I've been embracing the fact that my lashes just don't hold a curl."

"It does give a very fluffy lash effect. I'm not sure if I would say bouncy, but it is pretty. This definitely gives fluffy lashes. It does not build up like crazy, though, which is actually surprising. I thought with this brush it would be like a really beefy mascara, but it's actually pretty wispy. It's really gentle, natural. You're not getting extreme volume. It's actually giving a very natural effect. I like it though. I really think this effect would suit somebody who wants more of a soft natural lash look. It's not going to give super beefy lashes like at all, but I think that's actually pretty cute. That brush is definitely different than anything I've tried before. Very innovative."
