I've been a fan of the first Tartlette formula so ordered this new version as soon as I could. I always just order the mini as I don't wear mascara everyday and can't get through a full tube before the six-month mark when tubes start to dry and clump. Anyway...this version is GREAT! The formula does create longer, thicker lashes than the original. It goes on smooth and easy, dries quick, and lasts all day without flaking. And it does come off in tubes just like the viral videos show...it's so great how it comes off so easy without tugging, rubbing or creating raccoon eyes! I just knocked one star off because this version does seem a bit "heavier"...when I put it on after curling my lashes, they got pulled back down to almost straight before setting.

But then I did a double-curl after the mascara was dry (I know some people freak out at this saying your lashes are going to stick to the curler and get pulled out of your eyelid but they don't!) and then my lashes stayed upright in place all day and looked great!

I bought this mascara when it was on offer a while back and have only started using it now as I had another Tarte mascara on the go and wanted to finish it first. It looked very impressive with expensive-looking black and gold packaging and sumptuous gold detailing on the mascara tube itself, and the wand had an evenly loaded amount of product when taken out of the tube. Unfortunately, I found it didn't live up to my expectations! I'm afraid like another reviewer, I found it clumped really easily when applying and you had to wait to apply the second coat. I then let it dry and tried re-applying and it looked dreadful so I took it all off, which was clumpy. I re-applied and again I found it difficult to get a reasonable result but by then I was running late and had ...

If you want drama & have some time to adjust, go with Tartlette XL. They are both great.I wore the mascara for a total of 12 hours, 9am to 9pm. There was no smudging or flaking, no raccoon eyes, and my lashes stayed lifted and curled for the most part, which is pretty remarkable because as I'd mentioned, I have straight, thin lashes and did not curl them in order to test the true hold and lifting properties.Overall, I would have to say this is the best mascara on Sephora that I have found in the last 5 years or so. I used to be married to Lancome and Dior, but it seems as if their formula has changed and I have not been happy with any mascara for many years at this point, until this one and the second brand in the photo that I am comparing this to.

The best part about this mascara is it is pretty rub-resistant for girlies who struggle with hitting their brow bone. I still do get SOME rubbing, but nowhere near as bad as regular mascaras. My issue is that for me, I MUST use a lash curler, otherwise my eyelashes are like totally straight. I also find that this mascara really reduces the quantity of eyelashes I appear to have... it doesn't separate them very well, instead it clumps them together quite a lot. Finally, as you can see from my pics, the tips of my eyelashes are like.. crooked? It kinda reminds me of how it looks when people use those fillament mascaras or what have you... I do not know WHY it's causing my eyelashes to go absolutely bizzerk on the ends, but that's not an issue I have with other ...

I find that really bothersome, I just want the lashes going straight! Probably that is my biggest complaint... whatever is going on at the very tips!
it took me a few weeks, but I've finally figured out this mascara. there is absolutely a learning curve.you MUST warm the mascara before application for best results. I put the tube between my thighs or boobs while I do my face make-up.once warmed - hold the wand steady and blink your eyelashes over the wand. I start at the ends and work my way down to the middle of the lash length. You want to use as little product as you can to keep them from clumping and falling. This is the only way I can get it to hold a curl. the only way I can get my lashes to look this nice and curled is when I use lashify cluster extensions.the first time I tried this I was blown away at the results 6 hours later.

As someone who HATES waterproof mascara and doesn't like the grip it has on my lashes, not to mention the whole process of removing it, I have switched over to tubing mascaras. I was very impressed with the way the formula and brush held my lashes up without having to use so many coats. Formula was not thick at all, not too wet, but the perfect texture to coat around lashes. I had a tiny bit of flaking which doesn't bother me. That is a normal reoccurrence with mascara. I also deal with medium length, straight, and sparse lashes. Everything I have tried is either too wet, clumpy, too big of a brush, not enough volume, etc. I was very impressed with this mascara and it's ability to give me what I need. Plus, you get an easy removal. Who wouldn't want that. I also had ...

Best Tip I can give to y'all is, go through one coat, wait at least 45 seconds for it to dry down a bit but not fully dry and go back and recoat, and then BAM, you've got lashes. :)
I have oily skin, and have always struggled with mascara smudging around my eyes, even waterproof. I tried tubing mascaras years and years ago but they weren't so great back then. THIS mascara shows me tubing mascaras have come a very long way.This mascara does last all day without any issues for me. no flaking into my eyes. no smudging around my eyes. no eye irritation. I even wore it in Mexico while at the pool. it stayed put all day for the most part. as long as I didn't repeatedly touch my eyes with wet or sunscreen hands.applying this had a bit of a learning curve.

I still struggle with getting mascara on my eyelids when applying to my lashes due to the spool. for best application, you must WARM the mascara. I usually put it in-between my boobs while I do my other make up. Sounds silly, but the mascara glides on easier once it is warmed and has a finer finish that fans the lashes vs clumping. I do not find a second coat to be necessary. if you like to separate your lashes after applying mascara you must do it quickly with this one.this mascara is definitely lengthening, and it does hold a curl a little bit better than other mascaras I've worn in the past, but throughout the day the curl will fall over time. For max length apply a second coat but this can be tricky. You've got to wait until coat one is tacky before you apply coat 2. if you apply too soon, you won't see much lengthening. if you apply too late, it'll just make your lashes clumpy.I would certainly buy this again.
I, like some others said, am shocked at the bad reviews. From those reviews it appears some are doing numerous coats. This mascara is the best I have found for my lashes and I have tried tons. I have longish but on the thinner side these days lashes. They get slightly unruly. I can curl my lashes and give them one quick coat with this and they are picture perfect. I might dab on little light coat to any missed spots and then I am done. I have been asked what mascara I use since I switched to this. That's unusual my age lol. Also if you have sensitive allergy eyes like I do, this fuesnt skear ir get in eyes and I just remove with very warm water on cotton pads in an instant. The eye makeup removed always irritates my eyes. And I have tried quite a few tubing mascaras ... MoreI, like some others said, am shocked at the bad reviews.

I feel like this one just perfected it!
I ALMOST hated this until I realized you can't treat it like regular mascara. I think the bad reviews are coming from people who didn't take the time to learn how to apply it and just did a coat, let it dry, did another coat, everything clumped together, didaster arose.Don't put that much thought into it.Get it a little warm, apply one coat, IF and only if you REALLY want another coat, do it while its still tacky but no where near dry. Give it 15 seconds tops. Honestly though, I haven't needed more than one coat once I learned the ropes.Removal is fantastic. Get it wet and wipe your eyes. Don't use a remover pad or wash rag, it makes things more difficult than they need to be. Wipe down your eyes gently with your hands. Rinse a couple of times, boom gone. No ...

I was underwhelmed with this variation of the tartelette tubing mascara. I’m a ride or die for the original formula and so when I saw this I was so excited to try it. I love the volume from the original and I was hoping this was just going to be a more length focused version. I honestly didn’t even get that far. I noticed that unlike the original that the XL was really really thin. Then when I tried to wave the wand around and dry it out a little upon application I found that it didn’t build on itself very well at all. I love and prefer tubing mascara but this reminded me more of Milani’s tubing mascara rather than the tartelette line. I’m going to finish my tube, it’s not terrible hence the 3 stars, it doesn’t flake and the dry time is good, better than milani. ...
