Longterm foreigner 2 I don't know why I thought that this would be a good idea. The serum doesn't come off with just warm water nor a gently cleanser, so I have to use just as much eye makeup remover as with normal mascara. But unlike normal mascara, this one doesn't give any hold to curled lashes.The applicator is also a flattened comb, which makes my lashes stick together. I basically need to comb through with a lash spooly to separate the lashes, which also removes product.Used it only twice so I can't speak for the serum's effect.
