What the gurus are saying

Gurus who tried it found this mascara delivers genuine length without the chipping and flaking common in drugstore mascaras, and it wears well throughout the day while staying easy to remove at night. The thin, curved brush gets consistent praise for smooth application and grip on lower lashes, making it a reliable everyday option. That said, those wanting dramatic volume or intensity for a full eye look may want to pair it with something heavier, as this one skews toward a classic, lengthening finish rather than build-able drama.

"This L'Oreal Extensionist mascara was my next favorite makeup find. I tried this one without very high hopes because I have not been happy with any drugstore mascaras for a long, long time. They always chip, flake, smudge. And guess what? This one actually delivers. The marketing on this is that it makes your lashes 5 mm closer to your eyebrows, and I put it on one eye and then compared, and my eyelashes sure were closer to my eyebrows because it made them look much, much longer. I really like this and it stays put all day and it's not hard to take off at night."

"The Extensionist from L'Oreal. This is a good one. This is a good everyday mascara. I feel like it's going to give you more length versus volume. In my experience, you'll still get some volume, but it's definitely more of a lengthening mascara for me."
The Products That Actually Stuck (Mostly Drugstore!) 🤍
"This is the L'Oreal Extensionist Mascara. It's what I'm wearing today, and it's a really nice everyday mascara. I personally can't really build it up the way that I like to when it comes to an eyeshadow look. I like to have something a little more intense for an actual eye look, but for everyday, this has really been doing the trick. I love the curvature of the wand. I love how it applies. I love how it just lengthens. I would definitely say this is more of a lengthening mascara versus a volumizing, but there's a time and a place for that. And it's great. I really love it. It just gives kind of like fluttery lashes, but it feels very classic. It's easy to apply because of the applicator. I've just really been enjoying it."
Unexpected Holiday Makeup That Looks Expensive ✨
"I have been hearing really good things about this new L'Oreal Extensionist mascara. It has a cool, very thin curved brush. That was very easy to use. It's a nice mascara. The curvature of this brush is so nice to just kind of grip onto those lower lashes. I like this. I love having this teensy curved brush."
