CLIO Kill Lash Superproof Mascara, Waterproof Lengthening Mascara with Slim Curved Brush for Straight Lashes, Smudge-Resistant Long Wear, Lifted Curl and Clean Separation (001 Long Curling)

I’ve been using the Kill Lash Superproof mascara from CLIO for a few months now, and it’s honestly the best mascara I’ve tried. For context, I have straight lashes and deep-set, hooded eyes, so most mascaras either won’t hold a curl or end up smudging under my eyes after a few hours. Even tubing mascaras, which I’ve had some success with, don’t really keep my lashes lifted and tend to come off too easily. This one is completely different. It actually holds the curl I put in at the start of the day and keeps it there. I’ve worn it for 12+ hours, and my lashes still looked lifted, which is something I’m just not used to. Normally my lashes drop within 30 minutes no matter what I do. It’s also truly waterproof. I didn’t have issues with smudging or transfer, even with long wear. At the same time, it’s not overly heavy or clumpy. The slim curved brush makes it easy to get good separation and reach smaller lashes without making a mess. Removal is better than I expected for something this long-wearing. I do need to use an oil cleanser and let it sit for a bit, but it breaks down without too much effort after that. I’m planning to try a dedicated mascara remover to make it even easier. I don’t wear makeup every day, but when I want my lashes to actually look long and lifted, this is the one I use. If you have straight lashes that refuse to hold a curl, this is absolutely worth trying.

I really love how smooth the mascara brush is and how it lengthens my eyelashes. It goes on effortlessly without clumping, and the brush separates each lash well, giving a more lifted, elongated look. I also like that it makes my lashes look longer and more defined while still feeling lightweight and natural.

This mascara is the absolute best. It literally lasts all day, and even pretty much all of it stays on through a nights sleep. It's almost still prefect when you wake up with it on, only a few spots to wipe off that it smudges from putting you face in the pillow. Besides that through is lasts the whole day. Not only that but it curls your lashes as well. It also is the perfect amount. The bond is just skinny enough to be able to get it on every lash well, and also the amount that comes out is not too goopy. You can keep adding layers and it still won't be too much. It's just the right amount. It's worth every penny.

I’ve been using this mascara for a while now, and overall I’m really happy with how it performs. One of the biggest things I noticed is how much it helps my lashes look longer. Even though my lashes are naturally quite straight, this mascara does a great job of defining and extending them so they don’t look flat or short. It works especially well with a lash curler. After curling my lashes, the mascara holds the shape nicely and makes the curl look more noticeable and lifted. I like that it coats the lashes evenly without clumping too much, which helps keep them looking separated and more natural while still adding length. That said, I did notice that after a few hours, the mascara tends to fall a bit. It’s not a complete deal-breaker for me, but it’s something to keep in mind if you’re looking for an all-day mascara. Overall, it’s a great mascara for length and for straight lashes, especially when paired with a lash curler. If it had better staying power, it would be perfect.

Where has this mascara been all my life? I really like it a lot. I have light colored, very fine lashes that are short and straight. (Lucky me. Lol). I really like this for giving length without my lashes looking spidery or clumpy. My lashes look natural and a lot longer than they do when I use other mascaras. There’s no flaking or smudging. The waterproof formula is a bit harder to remove but I found these soft little silicone eyelash brushes (from Amazon) and use that with an oil based cleanser and that does the trick for me. I think this mascara would stay on and look perfect even if I cried a river. It’s non budging and does not weigh my lashes down either.

Great mascara! Holds a curl and doesn’t weigh down lashes. Hard to remove so recommend using an oil based remover.

This is the best mascara if you curl your eyelashes and need to keep them in place all day. I also have oily skin and I never get raccoon eyes with this stuff. I also love the precise brush that helps me from getting splotches all over. Absolutely the best mascara out there and a great bargain too.

Bought this after seeing Korean beauty raves about it. I've been wearing it daily for three weeks now, and it's been through everything - hot yoga, beach days, and my sister's outdoor wedding last weekend (85°F heat + happy tears). My lashes still looked perfect at 2am. This stuff genuinely doesn't move. I ugly-cried during the vows, danced for 4 hours straight, went swimming with it on by accident - zero smudging, zero flakes. My friend actually asked if I was wearing falsies. For $14, this performs better than my $35 Lancome and $28 Too Faced mascaras. The brush is super skinny which seemed weird at first, but it grabs every single lash including those annoying baby ones in the inner corners. Gives you that separated, fluttery look like you got a lash lift. One coat looks natural, two coats gets you noticed, three coats and it's still not clumpy. The black is TRUE black, not some wimpy gray-black. Yes, removal requires oil cleanser - but honestly, that's WHY it stays perfect all day. I learned this the hard way with micellar water (didn't work). Now I use Banila Clean It Zero, let it sit for 30 seconds, slides right off. Small price to pay for bombproof lashes. The formula is a bit wet at first - just wait about a minute before blinking hard. No weird chemical smell. I curl my lashes first because this holds curl amazingly. The silver text on the tube rubs off but who cares when the product inside is this good? This isn't dramatic volume mascara - it's better. It's "your lashes but impossibly perfect" mascara. When I want more drama, I just add another coat or layer with primer. But honestly, most days I don't even bother because this looks so good on its own. Perfect if you have oily eyelids (everything smudges on me by noon usually), wear contacts, live somewhere humid, or just want to apply your mascara once and forget about it. At $14, it's basically stealing. Already bought two backups because I'm never going back to mascaras that melt off by lunch. Will update in a couple months about formula longevity, but honestly at this price I don't even care if it dries out faster.
