What the gurus are saying

The split brush design (half comb, half fluffy bristles) delivers a soft, natural lash look rather than dramatic volume. Gurus found it gives a wispy, fluffy effect without heavy buildup, making it best for anyone who prefers a gentle, natural finish over extra thickness. The formula itself is not overly wet, which many appreciate, though the mascara does not hold curl as strongly as some might hope.

"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."
