Formula overview

This water-based formula is built around a blend of waxes, including beeswax and carnauba wax, which help coat and condition lashes for a smooth mascara application. It also contains Dimethicone, a silicone emollient, and Ascorbyl Palmitate, a stabilized form of vitamin C.

Compatibility

This water-based, wax-rich formula is well-suited for all skin types, as the combination of carnauba wax and hydroxyethylcellulose provides a smooth, non-greasy base for mascara application. Those with extremely sensitive eyes should note the presence of triethanolamine, though the overall silicone-inclusive blend is generally well-tolerated.
