Trés Chic Vegan Tubing Mascara – Black, Waterproof, Smudge-Proof, Long Lasting – Easy Removal with Warm Water – Cruelty-Free, Natural Look – No Panda Eyes - Made in UK, 8 ml

My wife has tried countless mascaras over the years, but the Poppy Sloane Tres Chic Reformulated Tubing Mascara is in a league of its own. This tubing mascara delivers on all fronts—smudgeproof, flakeproof, and truly waterproof without the harsh removal process. It gives my lashes amazing definition and length without clumping or weighing them down. What she liked most is how it holds up all day, even through humid weather or long workdays. No panda eyes, no flaking—just clean, lifted lashes. The black pigment is rich and dramatic, yet the mascara feels lightweight and natural. Removal is a breeze too—just warm water and a gentle rub, no need for oil-based removers. Plus, it's vegan, cruelty-free, and made in the UK, which makes me feel even better about supporting the brand. If you’re looking for a long-lasting, gentle, waterproof tubing mascara that actually lives up to its claims, this one’s a must-try.

I have bought Blinc for a while now but the usual place I buy from couldn't dispatch in time, so I tried the reformulated version of this. I love it. Blinc was great, but towards the end of the day I found it was flaking. This doesn't look great, but more importantly it meant that my lenses were becoming unbearably uncomfortable by about 7pm and I had to take them out every evening. Cruelty free is very important to me so I came to Amazon to buy the Blinc one through them and happened on this which was also cruelty free, and the tubing type which I've discovered I prefer to normal. I thought I'd give it a go and I'm really pleased I did. This stuff doesn't flake *at all*, and it goes on beautifully. This was the other issue I had with Blinc, that it seemed very dry after only 3 or 4 weeks. I've used this for a month now and it's still going on really well. It's also cheaper, so really what's not to like! In short, if you wear lenses definitely get this over Blinc. I've taken off a star on the easy to remove bit because this stuff stays put unless you (gently) work at it with warm water and pressure. This is a plus point I think as it means it won't come off if you just rub your eyes without water, but it's definitely not your normal 'give it a quick wipe and it's gone' mascara.

Maybe it's me, but this definitely did not do what it said on the tin. Had black eyes within an hour of application. I tried it for a couple of weeks and gave up in the end. Years ago I was a make up artist and used the original "tube" brand for brides and myself and it NEVER let me down. This brand claims to be better but simply does not measure up. It removed easily, but that's about it. Worth paying the extra and getting the original brand.

I bought this mascara after much reviewing for the best smudeproof formula & this mascara, I have to say, has been the best I have ever had for that! It really does stay put with no panda eyes whatsoever. So I was really pleased on that front. But would I buy it again? Sadly not I'm afraid! I was so disappointed that I would be having to apply goodness knows how many coats to get any kind of definition, length or thickness or volume to my lashes (& even then I still dont get the big eyes I like) It just doesn't go to the end of my lashes at all well & just leaves them looking clumpy because of having to put so many coats on. It's even harder to apply to my bottom lashes & doesn't want to stay there when I'm applying it. My lashes aren't that short particularly, but are quite fair, so mascara is a nessecity to bring my eyes to life. If time is tight, it is frustrating that it takes so long to get the result I'm after. So sadly I wont be buying again I'm afraid which massively dissapoints me as I really thought after a bit of working out how to apply it properly to get the look I like I'd be a big fan. Hence why the 3 stars. That's purely for the smudeproof formula but not for overall effect & ease to apply.

Great product. Waterproof indeed - after application, I rubbed my face in the water, and had no 'panda eyes' whatsoever. I'm happy as I specifically bought this product for my holidays by the sea. It is definitely smudge- and flake-proof, with a 'clean' and lengthening effect on the lashes. This mascara definitely makes them pretty. My only 'let down' would be that the mascara does not make the lashes extremely voluminous or 'thick', which is what I'm used to with my other mascaras - but the product was not explicitly supposed to do this anyway, so I can't really hold that against the manufacturers. I'm pretty impressed with the lengthening effect.

It really is smudge proof, flake proof and water proof. It will flake a little after having slept in it tho. Then it lasts the whole of the next day too. It stays put literally all day. The area below your eye stays spotlessly clean, no smears under the eyes. In addition this mascara adds length and really opens the eyes. And finally, this mascara really coats the bottom lashes beautifully. My hunt is over. I'll never use another mascara unless they change this formula. PS. It's a really intense black too. I just love it!

Very disappointed in this mascara. I tried to give it a good try for a few days. Not only did my lashes not appear any longer or thicker. Applying more than one coat made it very clumpy and spidery. It doesn't smudge, but it will flake. My (not usually sensitive) eyes were irritated after wearing it a few hours. Taking this off was a nightmare. I have tried water, hot cloth cream cleanser and oil based cleanser. It takes rigorous rubbing and pulling to shift it. It left me with lashes missing and sore lids from the removal process. My eyelashes are in a far worse state than if I had never bought this. The only points it deserves are for being vegan and cruelty free. I don't understand the positive reviews. Was I given a non-genuine or stale product? Buyers beware.

If like me, you are tired of every single mascara leaving you with dark shadows under your eyes by the end of the day - you must buy this! I was so embarrassed with my panda eyes that I stopped using mascara altogether, now they are a thing of the past and I use this mascara every day. It gets better! Not only is this completely smudge proof once dried, it actually separates and lengthens your lashes, and get this: when you come to wipe it off (using warm water and a cotton wool) there is no black under your eyes, just tiny flakes that are easily brushed away! I can’t rave about this product enough, it is the best makeup item I have bought. I only wish I had discovered it sooner. Go on, buy it, you will not be disappointed!!
