Welcome back to Beautyistic! Have you ever looked in the mirror halfway through the day and thought, “Wait… where did my mascara go?” Smudges under the eyes, flakes on your cheeks, or lashes that look weighed down instead of lifted—it’s a frustration we’ve all been through. That’s why I wanted to test out something that claims to solve those exact issues: the Too Faced Ribbon Wrapped Lash Mascara. This is an extreme length tubing mascara designed to give separation, lift, and hold without smudging, clumping, or flaking—plus it’s cruelty-free, which is always worth noting.
Now, tubing mascaras are a little different from your traditional formulas. Instead of coating your lashes with waxes or pigments that can smudge, tubing mascaras create flexible little “tubes” around each lash that lock in place. The promise here is 24 hours of wear with length and definition, while still being easy to remove at the end of the day with just warm water. That’s already appealing, especially for those who want both performance and convenience.
When I tested it, the brush immediately stood out. It has a sleek design that makes it easy to coat even those hard-to-reach corner lashes without making a mess. On application, the formula felt lightweight—not sticky or heavy—and it gripped the lashes in a way that stretched them longer without clumping them together. I wore it through a full day of errands, meetings, and even some unexpected humid weather. By the evening, I had zero smudges under my eyes, no flaking on my cheeks, and my lashes still looked lifted.
That said, I did notice it leans more toward length and separation than bold, dramatic volume. If you’re someone who wants full, thick lashes, this might feel a bit understated. But for those who want a clean, defined, fluttery look with serious staying power, it really shines.
Let’s pause for a second—if this review is helpful so far, don’t forget to hit like, subscribe, and tap the bell so other beauty lovers can discover Beautyistic too. Your support keeps these honest reviews coming.
Now, the pros are pretty clear: it delivers on its tubing technology, the longevity is impressive, it removes easily without harsh rubbing, and the brush design works beautifully for precision. The main con is that if you prefer a voluminous, dramatic lash look, you may need to layer it with a volumizing mascara or look at other options.
In terms of value, Too Faced sits in that mid-to-high price range compared to drugstore mascaras. But considering the performance—especially the no-smudge promise—I’d say it justifies its price for those who struggle with raccoon eyes or wear mascara for long hours. Compared to something like L’Oréal Double Extend Tubes, which is more budget-friendly, Too Faced feels a bit more refined in brush design and lash separation. But if you’re on a tighter budget, those alternatives do offer a similar tubing effect.
The packaging feels sturdy and true to Too Faced’s playful branding, but it doesn’t compromise on function. Longevity-wise, as with most mascaras, I’d stick to the standard three-month window after opening for hygiene reasons, but the performance holds consistently during that time.
To wrap this up, the Too Faced Ribbon Wrapped Lash Mascara lives up to its main claim: long, separated, smudge-free lashes that last all day. It’s ideal for anyone who values length and definition without the hassle of touch-ups. If you’re after a dramatic, full-volume lash look, you might want to pair it with something else—but if smudging and flaking are your biggest frustrations, this is absolutely worth trying.
