Hi!
I have read so many raves about Blinc mascara I am seriously tempted to give it a go. I have a couple of questions though.
Does it look natural? I am so fair I look weird if I have that obvious 'mascara' look, I tint my lashes but like a little mascara just to add a bit more definition and too hold the curl.
Is the brown a dark black/brown like the brown Dr H or is it a lighter colour, like milk chocolate?
Many Thanks in advance for you help!

I'm currently using the brown shade, my hair is dark but I'm light skinned and my lashes are blonde. The brown shade is really light, not a dark brown at all. It is more like milk chocolate. I haven't tried Dr H though. I can take a pic for you, so you can see the brown shade. brb. |

Thanks! That's brilliant!
Is it quite subtle when on?

You're welcome! I forgot to give my opinion regarding the mascara itself, yes, it is a subtle, natural mascara. I don't notice much volume or lengthening with Blinc, just colour. |

I use this in the violet color and it looks nice and natural on my lashes also. |

Yea, I love this stuff...the only make-up I wear on a daily basis is mascara (and maybe a little light lippy) and this stuff is soft enough looking to get away with it on its own. So many mascaras look wierd unless you have on a full face.. |

Have the brown-very natural. Took me a night to get the removal down w/o pulling out lashes. I was oversimplifying the process-duuhh!! |

I didn't think Blinc was very effective until I started using the Blinc Primer first. Now that's a horse of a different color! |

I have a difficult time with mascara (it tends to give me black eyes!) but this one works so well I had considered selling it. I wear the black/brown for a more natural look. It's not very dramatic so I like Lancome Hypnose in black for a more "made up" look. |

This mascara is the best I've ever used, I have both the black and the brown and they both give the definition I want, without the horrible flaking you get with almost any other mascara (except those ones that take three days to remove from under your eyes). I have allergies and this mascara has been my saviour!!
Love it |
