Longcils Boncza by Vitry Cake Mascara, Black

I bought this old fashioned cake mascara as I was fed up with the clumpy false lash effect mascaras that are on the market today. It took a little bit of practice to get the hang of using it, you really only need a small drop of water on it. It colours my lashes, and leaves them separated, with absolutely no clumps, wich was what I wanted. I found the brush really easy to use. I love it will definitely buy it again.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Completely ineffectual. Not fit for purpose. Not at all the product we bought in the 60s. Overpriced for what it is. Cannot return for a refund.

At first tried using it with the brush it came with and thought it was awful then tried a cheap beauticians disposable spoolie and wow, so much better. Best results were 1 coat with a saturated spoolie, a dusting of translucent powder then a second coat. Once dried my lashes were curled, think and black to rival any high street mascara with good staying power and no clumping. Like a very good lash lift and tint. The product works great but the brush provided is awful.

Amazing mascara, no clumping no flaking fantastic colour and no streaks after a lovely long soak in a hot bath. I find the brush super easy to use, much more effective than the usual mascara brush. The first time I used a drop of water, which was fine but not great and since then I’ve been using a drop of micellar water and WOW! I work the drop into the cake to wet the brush and then apply, it couldn’t be easier.

Disappointed with this product lovely big compact like container but the mascara block is about the size of a ton pence piece lovely big brush though

This was just a very hard block of I don’t know what. Even after soaking virtually no colour could be removed. Shameful rip off of £15+.

Have used these block or cake mascaras for many years. The advantage is that you can easily control how much mascara you want to use and add layers, as necessary for different looks. Help avoid clumping together of lashes, especially if lashes are sparse. The disadvantage is that it takes a bit of time to familiarise yourself with how to use and apply it, but the end result is worth it. Also kinder to lashes. Thoroughly reccommend.
