- Q
Can this be used on eyebrows too as a primer for tinted gel and/or an overnight conditioner?
- Asked by Alexis
- Verified Reply - Brand ExpertHi! You could use it as an overnight conditioner, but it has a white cast, so it is not best used during the day. Clinique does offer a brow mousse. It is called Just Browsing Brush On Styling Mousse and is a great option for taming brows in the daytime. Thank you for your question and have a great week!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Since the ingredients are not listed, I'm wondering if this is basically a "tubing primer" that, when applied before mascara, essentially turns any mascara into a tubing mascara? I have sensitive eyes and can only wear tubing mascara ( like the Clinique Lash Power) but there are so many other mascaras I would love to try! If this is basically a "tubing primer" then it would be an eyelash saver for me!
- Asked by Mandy
- Verified Reply - Brand ExpertHi! This is not a tubing primer. We do have tubing mascaras in our lash power formulas that you are currently using. This primer is a conditioning primer that lengthens and thickens the lashes. It is very gentle and most people with sensitive eyes have had great luck using it. I am noting the ingredients below for your review. Thank you for your question and have a wonderful week! water\aqua\eau / copernicia cerifera (carnauba) wax\cera carnauba\cire de carnauba / stearic acid / polybutene / glyceryl stearate / oleic acid / aminomethyl propanediol / acrylates copolymer / panthenol / glycerin / ethylhexylglycerin / hydroxyethylcellulose / chlorphenesin / sodium dehydroacetate / phenoxyethanol / sorbic acid < iln33962>Was this answer helpful to you

Best mascara ever!
I use this mascara with Clinique's lash doubling mascara and it is AMAZING. It makes my lashes extraordinarily long and they never look clumpy. I receive compliments all the time about what long beautiful eyelashes I have and I owe it all to this mascara. I use it every day and my mascara looks the ...

OK product, not a must have
I got for free, not having really tried a lash primer before. It's OK, not terrible, but not amazing. I thought it'd be a clear sort of primer, but it actually adds a white coat. I'm not sure about the whole "polymer" thing. To be honest, I think it's just adding a white, soft mascara. I didn't noti...

I absolutely love this lash primer!
I was introduced to this product over 20 years ago and when I use it, which is any day I use mascara it makes my eyelashes really pop! Who needs false eyelashes if you have the Clinique brand lash primer.
The best!
I have used this product for years and it is the very best lash primer. I've tried several others over the years and nothing compares. It applies easily, its not sticky, I like that its white so I can see it when applying, and it makes a real difference under mascara.
Amazing Primer!
This primer is amazing. It really coats my lashes and brings new length to them. My regular mascara sticks to it well and lasts all day. So glad I found this! Highly Recommend it!
Works well
This lash primer works well and once you apply mascara, it doesn't show at all and doesn't irritate my eyes (unlike some other lash primers I've tried). You do need to be careful to brush the primer through your lashes, though, as it can clump a bit.
Awesome product!
I wear contacts and don't have to worry about mascara flaking into my eyes. LOVE IT!
