Why I love it
Round Sea Urchin Brush
This Givenchy mascara has the world’s first 100% round brush. I would describe it as a “sea urchin” head, which I think is quite intelligent. The round head enables more freedom and precision. Because I can use it in all direction, the roots of lashes (the most difficult to reach part) and some very fine lashes can be reached easier.
Organic Formula
The black pigment is formulated from organic carbon pigment. The color is more concentrated and more easily stays on each lash.
Bad Points
Though Givenchy claims there is no clumpings and caking, I do find a bit clumpings after application.
I love the round head but I have to say it can be difficult to control for new mascara users.

Detailed Test
The round brush really looks like a sea urchin and is quite elegant.
The black color is fine and concetrated. It stays well with just one application.
The curling of eyelashes is only OK, not surprising. But it is quite natural.
I think the volume maximizing proprty is on average, not bad. But, there is a little bit clumping as you can see.
The water-proof propety is not really good. It smudges quite a bit.
The overall effect is quite noticeble and natural.My eyelahes looks much longer with natural curling after application.

~ Thanks for your wonderful post!
I love all articles about eyelashes, mascara, as I have really straight lashes and when properly curled makes my eyes look bigger, amazing and gorgeous..
I so love sharing with others about great products.~ The best ever“ heated eyelash curler I have ever found is the Hot Lashes eyelash curler, makeup Artist kit. Loved the reviews on Amazon and was impressed. There is also a site of the same name Hot Lashes.
This curler is exactly like the Shu Uemura curler with a 24K gold plated curler and this small heater base. Keeps my lashes curling till the next day. and my eyes really pop… Happy New 2012…HTH~
