EFR rating: Bronze
While this mascara includes nourishing ingredients like aloe, jojoba, and vitamin E, it also contains fragrance and essential oils, which can be irritating for sensitive eyes. The presence of beeswax and carnauba wax makes it unsuitable for use along the waterline. It's a naturally formulated lash enhancer, but best avoided by those with dry eye or MGD concerns.
Benecos Long Lash Black Mascara, your questions answered
Q1. How does a lengthening mascara differ from a volumising one?
A lengthening formula coats and extends the individual lash tip using a finer wax and brush design, rather than building thickness at the root the way a volume formula does.
Q2. Who suits a lengthening formula best?
Naturally short or fine lashes benefit most from lengthening, since the visible improvement is length and separation rather than density.
Q3. Does the Deep shade give a completely black finish?
Yes, formulated for a rich, classic black rather than a softer tinted shade.
Q4. How do I apply it for maximum length?
Start at the base of the lashes and pull the wand upward and outward in one motion, rather than wiggling side to side, which suits volume more than length.
Q5. Is it suitable for sensitive eyes?
Benecos formulates within its BDIH natural cosmetics standard, avoiding a range of commonly sensitising ingredients. As with all mascara, remove thoroughly each night regardless of formula.
Q6. How do I remove it?
Oil-based or micellar remover on a cotton pad, held against lashes before wiping, rather than rubbing directly.
Q7. What is the best mascara for naturally short lashes?
A lengthening formula with a fine brush that reaches to the very tip of each lash gives the most visible length improvement. Benecos Long Lash Black Mascara is built specifically for that lengthening effect.
