Clean Lash Lengthening Mascara

4.8 • 9 Reviews

I ordered the clean lash mascara and signature lip liner during a Thingdrop. That packaging itself is really lovely - I really like how sleek the mascara tube especially is. I try and keep my makeup bag on the small side so I hate when structures are bulky or odd shaped - this one is sleek and lightweight. I wanted to try the mascara because I prefer tubing mascara (no smearing and easier to remove) and was thrilled that Merit's is. I do wish the applicator brush was a little smaller so I could be more precise but like the mascara otherwise - it stayed put all day. This is the first time i've ventured into trying lipliner and this one seems great. It goes on super smooth and because it's sheer it's nice and subtle - exactly what I was hoping for. Also want to note that the customer service is incredible! I had an issue with the color of the first liner and they were so awesome helping me get an exchange for a different shade.

This review comes from my wife: As a busy mom of two, and someone who has always preferred a more natural look, makeup is usually one of the first things to be cut out of my routine when I'm low on time. However, the Merit 5 Minute Morning actually has me looking forward to putting a little bit of makeup on. I love the idea of being able to feel like a more polished version of myself in just (actually) 5 minutes. I've never been good at makeup, but I feel like these products are really forgiving in that regard. In the kit, you can find: -The Minimalist Perfection Complexion Stick (I've always hated foundation because it's such a full look; this is like a more blendable, more versatile concealer that also has some foundation coverage powers), -Flush Balm cheek color (there are so many pretty shades, and they give off such a natural blush), -Day Glow (gives that dewy look), -Brush No. 1 blending brush (so easy to use and works seamlessly with the complexion stick), -Clean Lash (I previously used Ilia.. this might be my new favorite mascara), and -Brow 1980 volumizing pomade (gives a soft, fuller look to eye brows) These products have made it so that almost all the rest of my makeup is collecting dust. My Merit products are my go to when I want to look like a more polished (or sometimes, even a little glammed up), put together version of myself.

The branding is what originally sold me, their packaging is so gorgeous and aesthetic, I mostly wanted it for my bathroom counter. But then I tried to products and was blown away. I love the pigment in the blush and the gloss. The brush is sooo soft and blends great. And the concealer stick is super creamy and so far it hasn't creased too much! Overall, I am loving my new products and can't wait to explore more of their products! Very curious about the skin care.

As part of Thingtestibg, I ordered 4 products from Merit- the signature lip liner in coupe, lipstick in millenial, mascara, and the uniform tinted sunscreen. Based on what I know, I’m a huge fan of this brand. It’s considered a “clean” brand, which is nice but honestly doesn’t matter to me as much as if it works - which this brand does. Both the lip liner and the lipstick are a pretty, natural pink that are very easy to apply. The mascara is excellent - it lasted during an entire summer day without smudging/flaking, but wasn’t impossible to take off. And the sunscreen was easily applied with my fingers, with a nice light tint - if you prefer light coverage, this + some concealer is all you need. Highly recommend! It also came in a unique corduroy bag that I will definitely reuse!

I love the Merit mascara! I was looking for a clean mascara that would hold a curl in straight Asian eyelashes and also not lead to raccoon eyes from oily lids. The Clean Lash Lengthening Mascara is it! I don't typically wear anything on my skin besides sunscreen, but the Complexion Stick is really good for spot coverage (i.e., as a concealer). The Blending Brush is also useful to blend out the Complexion Stick when I wear it as a foundation, but I typically just use my fingers to blend because I'm lazy. Overall, Merit creates some great products, and I would definitely try some of their others in the future!

Tried the Clean Lash and loved it - made my lashes super long, clean formula and didn't flake. Overall, the minimalist branding and products feel like an elevated, grown-up version of Glossier. Update: The Flush Balm is my go-to blush! Layerable and gives you that beautiful dewy flush. Just set it with a spray to minimize fading throughout the day.

I REALLY like the blush and I get a ton of complements when I wear it. I find it easy to use. I also have had a great experience with the highlighter. The mascara I found to be good, not great. But I would wholeheartedly recommend the blush and highlighter, no question.

This is a really nice brand that I enjoyed trying out for the first time. I really liked how the mascara felt lightweight on my eyes, compared to others that felt very heavy and weighed them down or made my lashes look too bulky. When leaving my home I felt that I looked like I was natural, all while still looking put together.
