Is the the Christian Louboutin of Mascaras? Well it certainly looks like it, Maybelline's newest mascara Lash Stiletto Ultimate Length Washable Mascara is housed in a sleek black tube with a dash of red at the end of the tube. In the CVS display the brush is also red, but when I opened up my tube it was coated with mascara so I couldn't tell if it was or not. Just looking at the in-store display popped images of the Christian Louboutin Rolando Hidden-Platform Pump, otherwise know as my dream shoe, into my mind and although this was not a shoe I knew had to purchase it. Thankfully, I've been a bit blessed in eyelash department. My lashes aren't super long, but they have curl for days and just one coat of this mascara separated and lengthened just about every one of my lashes without any clumps. I was looking for a particular area on my left eye towards to outer rim of my eye to clump (it always does no matter what mascara I use) but it didn't! I was taken back a bit, then I was eagerly applying a second and third coat, but that's were I went wrong. With this mascara you really only need 1-2 coats, anymore and you'll have clumps. But overall, I was impressed with the separating and lengthening abilities of this mascara - bottom line it's a keeper just limit yourself to 2 coats, tops.
