    4 Stars The High Impact Review with images 10/05/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Thicker, longer lashes

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Bit awkward to get the corner roots of the eyelashes

    Clinique So who are Clinique exactly? Clinique was originally founded in 1968 by a single dermatologist who began with an assumption that hygeine and cleanliness was the beginning to treating all skin conditions e.g. dry, oily, normal or breakout skin. Since then Clinique has been self motivated to customise their products to individual types of skin to suit an individual persons needs. Clinique thus created a three step skin care system which consists of cleansing, exfoliating and moisturizing the skin. If you go into Boots and get a free skin care consultation they can point out for you what ... more

    4 Stars Cheap IMPACT..! 29/10/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages It was free! - Worked quite well - Easy to remove..

    Disadvantages Disadvantages I didn't feel it lived up to its claims..

    ~~ Clinique High Impact Mascara ~~ * PRODUCT DETAILS * I do love a bargain. I was therefore delighted to discover that a recent copy of a glossy magazine was giving away some freebies with each copy of their magazine. As the freebies were from the "Clinique" cosmetics range, which is a range I really like, I decided to purchase a few assorted copies of the magazine to take full advantage of the small selection of cosmetics on offer. One of the freebies at this time was a small, 3.5ml tube of Clinique Mascara. I believe there was only one colour or shade choice available at the time, which was ... more

    4 Stars High Impact! 15/04/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages good all round product

    Disadvantages Disadvantages not as good as lash power!

    As anyone who has read any of my previous reviews will know I am a big fan of Clinique, so when a magazine was offering this mascara free with the purchase, I decided I had to try it. I am normally a fan of the 'Lash Power' mascara by Clinique, so was wondering how well this mascara would compare and whether it would convert me to buying this one in the future. ~~What is it?~~ This mascara was designed by Clinique to add volume, alongside definition and length. Therefore it is there sort of 'multi purpose' that claims to do everything, whereas some of their other mascaras are specially ... more

    5 Stars Medium Impact Mascara! 14/05/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Even coverage, no clumping or flaking, natural effects

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not 'High Impact'

    As a mum of three young kids, I don't usually have the spare cash for premium make up brands such as Clinique (let alone the occasion to wear them anymore!) The one item of make up that I wear on a daily basis is mascara, so when I discovered that Glamour magazine were giving away Clinique products with each copy, it was the mascara that I really wanted. I bought several copies and managed to get hold of a small tube of black mascara for the cost of the magazine. A full size tube of this Clinique High Impact mascara usually costs around £15 from their counters in stores such as Boots and ... more

    2 Stars "Dr, Dr, the whites of my eyes have gone black!" Review with images 19/07/2005
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Rich colour

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Clumps, lumps and irritating bits in your eyeballs!

    When it comes to make-up for a good look you should only ever choose to play up one area at any time; for me, it's always the eyes. If there was one make-up product that I could not live without, it has to be mascara. I can (reluctantly) go the day without any other make-up item, but I feel naked without mascara as I have been cursed with miserably short, fine, barely there eye lashes. When it comes to my choice of mascara, I love to have that exaggerated, very defined, over-the-top-lashes look. So I always choose a thickening mascara. I actually didn't buy this particular mascara, it was one ... more

    5 Stars Give way for High Impact lashes. 23/02/2010
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Excellent brush and it really seperates my lashes whilst giving good volume.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None for me!

    I tend to try and hold off buying my Clinique skin care until they have one of their frequent free gift offers on, and when they do, this mascara often seems to crop up in them. Just yesterday I was buying products from Clinique in Debenhams for the current free gift, and yet again this mascara was included inside. I seem to have several of these mini ones lying around, and only around a month ago did I actually start to use them. Clinique is an upmarket brand and whilst it isn't cheap, it really delivers high quality products. I started off treating myself to a product from the anti-blemish ... more

    3 Stars Flutter those clumps (sorry, eyelashes) 26/09/2004
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Very black

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Price, clumpy eyelashes

    ''Wear it once and you'll feel naked without it.'' That's what I read as I was flicking through my magazine and stumbled across an ad for Clinique High Impact Mascara. Hmmm...intriguing. I love my mascara. Being half Asian, I (oh so unluckily) inherited my mother's short eyelashes, so I could empathise with this claim, as I do tend to feel a bit 'naked' without my mascara brushed onto my pathetic little lashes. My Maxfactor More Lashes mascara (excellent, in case you're wondering) was just running out, and I was on the search for a new one. Soon after, I found myself in a Boots store, and ... more

    3 Stars Lovely mascara but doesn't live up to claims 12/03/2011

    Advantages Advantages Lovely to use, great colour payoff, easy to remove, no racoon eyes, moisturises lashes

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Price, doesn't live up to claims

    Why I want the product Like every woman in this world we are always on the look out for the next best mascara and with hundreds to choose from the task can be a daunting and expensive one if you get it wrong. You can purchase a cheaper brand and find it dries your lashes out and eventually they will be damaged and fall out or you can purchase a high price tag one and find it is perfect but too expensive to keep purchasing. But for a one off it is good to see what you like and if it is the best thing since slice bread then shopping around will be for you. About the product The name High Impact ... more

    4 Stars This mascara makes an impact 01/03/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Looks good, versatile, good staying power

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can smudge on occasion

    A while ago, the Clinique counter in Boots was offering free samples of mascara if you brought in an old mascara to exchange. I obtained both samples available, including the High Impact Mascara which this review is about. I was never previously bothered about Clinique products – I’d always seen the brand as rather ‘clinical’ and dull, and had a bad experience with the 3-step skincare system several years ago, but I’ve had good experiences with the products I’ve tried recently. This mascara comes in a simple tube, which is dark green (almost black) with simple gold writing. It is supposed to ... more
