Increased durability, matte finish
The first thing I noticed was that it really needs to be shaken well before use, otherwise the result is not good at all. Once you do that, it works really well. I find that my makeup lasts longer and stays more in place throughout the day, which is exactly what I want from a setting spray. The finish is a bit more matte than I personally prefer, I usually like a bit more glow. But it's not a big downside since the durability actually gets better. So I will definitely continue to use it, especially when I want my makeup to last extra long 😊 The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson – the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.1 product in post Increased durability, matte finish3 views - The post was made 2 hoursRating: 5 out of 5verified customer
Awesome primer!
I was really positively surprised by this primer. It is moisturizing while also having that really sticky feeling that makes the makeup really stick well on top. My foundation applied beautifully and stayed in place all day without feeling heavy or cakey. I also like that it feels comfortable on the skin and doesn't clog. For my combination skin, it worked beyond expectations, and I can clearly notice a difference in longevity when I use it. This will definitely become a staple in my routine 💕 The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson – the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.1 product in post Awesome primer!4 views - The post was made 2 hoursRating: 4 out of 5
Coverage with a matte finish
This foundation actually suited my combination skin really well. I like the finish, which is somewhere between satin and matte, it looks natural without getting too shiny. It also held up nicely throughout the day, which is a big plus. The only thing I noticed was that it could cling a bit extra on dry areas towards the end of the day, especially around the nose. So it's important to moisturize properly beforehand. But overall, I am very satisfied and think it gives an even and nice result that works both for everyday and slightly more dressed-up occasions ✨ The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson – the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.1 product in post Coverage with a matte finish3 views - The post was made 2 hoursRating: 3 out of 5
Great color, poor applicator
I had pretty high expectations for this, and in some ways it really delivered. The color was super nice and lasted impressively long, which I love because I don't want to have to touch up all the time. But unfortunately, there were a few things that brought the overall experience down. The tip dried out pretty quickly and became hard to work with, and I found it a bit too flexible, which made it hard to get precision. So the result wasn't always as pretty as I wanted. If it had better durability in the applicator itself, it would have been a favorite.

Nice moisturizing shine!
I really liked this gloss more than I thought. It gives a super nice shine and feels moisturizing on the lips without getting too sticky, which I really appreciate. I tested the transparent shade "01 Just Jelly", perfect for a simple everyday look or on top of a lip pencil. The only thing that brought my rating down a bit was the applicator, which is plastic. It didn't feel as soft or flexible and made the application a little less smooth than I had hoped. But the formula itself is really lovely, and I will definitely continue to use it 😊 The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.1 product in post Nice moisturizing shine!4 views - The post was made 6 monthsRating: 4 out of 5
Length and durability at top class – but a bit tricky to remove
I have tested the L’Oréal Paris Telescopic Waterproof Mascara Black for a few weeks as a test pilot at Smartson. I must say that I am really impressed – but it’s not completely perfect. First of all, I love the brush, it’s narrow and a bit flexible, which means it really reaches all the small lashes. I usually have quite straight and short lashes, but with this mascara, they look significantly longer and get a nice curl that actually holds all day. The result is very defined, and the lashes are separated without clumping, which is a big plus. The consistency is light and not too dry, which allows you to build up with several layers if you want a bit more intensity. What brings my rating down is primarily the removal. Since it’s waterproof, it really sticks like glue, which is of course good at the beach or a night out – but in the evening, it can feel quite tedious to get it off completely. You need a good remover; otherwise, it can be a bit of rubbing, and that doesn’t feel very gentle on the lashes. I also noticed that it doesn’t give much volume, so if you like really full lashes, you’ll need to combine it with something else. In summary: perfect for you if you want long, separated, and durable lashes that can withstand both rain and tears. Less good if you want dramatic volume or dislike fighting with removal. For me, the rating is 4/5 – a really good everyday favorite that I will definitely continue to use!1 product in post Length and durability at top class – but a bit tricky to remove2007 views
