Not easy to apply

I love the idea of a no-waste mascara but I find it difficult to apply, the clay-like consistency is too hard (unless I'm missing a step? Am I supposed to wet it before applying?) I also wish there was more information with the packaging, like how-to-apply directions and bristle cleaning instructions would be great.

Wish it was easier to apply. I want to love it but it’s not super user friendly. Going to try to add some olive oil to it to make it easier to apply

LOVE the brush

I bought the brush only and LOVE it! It feels like it is amazing material and I feel like an artist using it. It glides my eyebrow pomade on perfectly with no clumps or mess!

Did not stay on

I wanted so very badly to like this product. I am trying to switch all household and personal care products over to more sustainable options. I decided to try this mascara. Packaging and shipping materials were great. I tried to apply the mascara by wetting a spooly wand, rubbing it in the mascara and then applying. It would work fairly well, providing light coverage, but in about 10 minutes time, the mascara would start to run from my lashes leaving large black swatches under my eyes. For light coverage on top lashes it may work, but I am disappointed to say it will not work for more buildable overall cover.
