What the gurus are saying

Gurus consistently praise this mascara for exceptional lengthening and the ability to create defined, spidery lashes. The wand design is widely loved for its ease of use and effective separation. Volume delivery is strong and reliable across multiple applications. One minor drawback noted is the drier formula, which can clump if too much product loads on the brush; reviewers handle this easily by being careful with application. One reviewer found it too lightweight for their preference, but this reads as personal taste rather than a product flaw.

"This is far and away a top mascara. The L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara. This is really good. Such amazing length. And I'm telling you, 2026 is going to get off to a good start lashwise. I've been loving that combination overlaid on the voluminous base."

"I'm currently wearing this mascara, the L'Oreal Telescopic, and it is really good. It lengthens and lifts."
My Go-To Everyday Makeup 💄 (and Skincare Tips You Need to Know!)
"I'm back to the L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara in the gold tube. This is not disappointed at all. I've been using this particular one for a couple of weeks now. It really gives a nice length to the lashes. I mean, it really will give you a nice long skinny lash. It is a drier formula. So, if you happen to get a thick glob of it on the applicator and get it on the lash, then it's going to be like this dried piece of dung stuck to your eyelash. But, as long as that doesn't happen, it's really a really good formula. I've been super happy with it."

"This is amazing, this has really impressed me. I'm a huge fan of the Maybelline colossal mascara and this rivals that. It really is lengthening and gives a nice long lash. The wand is really easy to use. It's got a few different combs to it on the different sides that help with lengthening and then separating. It's just a lot easier to use than the telescopic lift mascara one was, which was a little aggressive about it, like I almost poked my eye with that one, whereas this it's not that way."

"The L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara has become like a drugstore mascara favorite because this is really good for those long spidery lashes. It's kind of all in what you want, but I have really really liked this a lot."

"I tried the L'Oreal Paris Telescopic Lift mascara and it was so disappointing, and you guys were like no no no you need to try the OG Telescopic mascara. So I tried it out, first impression this morning, I am loving it."

"I'm going in with L'Oreal Telescopic. Now this is a waterproof mascara, which isn't necessary for this look. I could use a regular mascara, but to be honest all of my drugstore mascaras are waterproof for some reason, so use what works for you."

"Now we're going to go in with the L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara on the top and bottom lashes and I'm going to do a few layers of this because I like extra volume on my lashes too even when it's an everyday type of a look."

"I will use L'Oreal Telescopic to get a good blend. I find that looks really good. They are also pretty comfortable. It's almost hard to tell when I'm wearing eyeshadow, but I almost feel like these would be wearable even without mascara."

"The L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara, I don't know why I remembered it not giving volume, but it does, it really really does. The volume that it gives is actually really great, and I really like the applicator. It's just been shocking to see how much I've been using this."

"I also know a lot of people love the L'Oreal Telescopic. For me that's a little too lightweight, but if you're wanting something that's really natural looking and not super bold, I think the L'Oreal Telescopic is great."
