What it is: A volume-creating and curl-sculpting mascara. What it does: Experience astonishing volume and staggering curl thanks to a high-performance polymer trio. The first one wraps the lashes in extremely adherent oils to thicken the lashes. The second one, made with supple waxes, acts like a conditioner, softening the lashes so you can sculpt them into just the right shape and style. The last one acts like a finishing hairspray to set the amazing curve.

Questions & Answers for Guerlain Maxi Lash

Question
Does this flake?
I've read great reviews about no smudging, etc, but I find too many mascaras flaking even though I don't touch my eyes, doesn't seem to matter the price. Anyone use this have flaking problems? Thanks!

I haven't had a problem with flaking. It seems to stay really moist and almost not fully set, even the day after when you try to remove it. It's a little difficult to remove in the shower with just water, but I guess that's the price you pay for a no smudge, no flake mascara.

I've never experienced flaking with this mascara. It feels almost more gel-like and I think it sticks to your lashes a bit differently (and better) than other kinds of mascara. It's light and just feels like it's one with your lashes!

This product and Guerlain's Noir G de Guerlain both flake a HUGE amount. I had to return both. Best product with no flaking at all is DOLCE and GABANNA and LANCOME's newest mascara. Chanel flakes slightly but it otherwise superior.

I have not experienced any noticeable flaking. When removing the mascara under the shower, what would be flaking or clumps with other mascaras, is more of a fine powder-size debris.

Question
Is this mascara scented?
I think it would be great if you guys included info on mascara scenting. For example, for some reason Dior scents their mascara with a rose fragrance. Those of us with allergies find ourselves sneezing mid application which ruins the application smudging mascara all over the lids. Not sure why cosmetics companies think scent is necessary for make up, but it would be great to find this out in the description.

Question
Does this mascara smudge??
I read a few reviews and some people said it doesn't smudge, but I have oily skin and oily eyelids. Many of the mascaras that I've used claimed to be smudge-proof, but I would still end up with racoon eyes. If anyone knows if this stays put on oily eyelids, please let me know..thanx!

No there isnt any smudging at all! I bought this back during christmas break and from that day on smudging mascara was no longer my concern. Although i would say that it does how ever flake if you over dose like i do but not alot or right away after the application. Like after 8-9 hours itll start.

Hope this review helps!!(:

I have a smudging problem too. This mascara smudged for me, under my eyes. I have had good luck with Clinique's high impact mascara - no smudges yet. I have been wearing it for a couple of weeks, it is significantly more natural than this Guerlain product, but you can apply mulitple layers if you choose.

I have oily lids and it has only smudge once but that was because i went swimming with it. However, throughout the day and night I have not experienced smudging.

I've never had a problem with this mascara smudging, even after a 12 hour travel day across the country. It really lengthens your eyelashes, so I would reccommend applying it to your bottom lashes first and then your top lashes, since we tend to open our eyes really wide when applying mascara to the bottom lashes. This will help avoid your top lashes touching your eyelid and creating a smudge. Hope this helps!

If you curl your lashes first, it holds the curl very well.

I usually curl my lashes but haven't since I got this mascara. The definition is really nice and it does't seem to flatten out the natural curl in my lashes.

Similar but even better! I LOVE this product after trying many mascaras that I ended up hating. I am really picky about them not taking too long to dry, NOT CLUMPING, but really giving definition and length. I was really pleased with this!
