“I didn’t believe it, but my eyelashes grew 5mm”: this SOS mascara available at Sephora contains treatments that stimulate eyelash growth from the first use

Repeated extensions, almost daily eyelash curling or inappropriate makeup removal… Your eyelashes can end up losing their beauty. Less full and weakened, they perhaps deserve something other than a new coat of classic mascara.

Behind its Caramel color hides a product that doesn’t just want to make up your eyes. Its interest also plays out over the applications.

SOS Lashes Serum Mascara Clarins, a mascara designed for damaged eyelashes

Clarins presents its SOS Lashes Serum Mascara as a makeup treatment intended in particular for eyelashes damaged by extensions, frequent use of an eyelash curler or improper makeup removal. The objective is therefore not limited to the result visible just after passing the brush.

The product promises volume, length, density, curvature and definition, while maintaining a natural result. Clarins especially announces eyelashes three times more voluminous after 28 days, on bare eyelashes. This data comes from a clinical study carried out on 30 women. The brand also indicates revitalization of eyelashes in 28 days of use, according to a consumer study conducted with 104 women.

Castor oil, oats… what Clarins put in its serum mascara

The secret lies partly in a formula inspired by hair science. Clarins uses organic castor oil, mainly known as a hair strengthener, to magnify eyelashes.

It is associated with an organic oat sugar extract which helps to naturally coat them and a mastic pistachio extract intended to contribute to strengthening them from the base.

The SOS Lashes Serum Mascara also contains the Lash Boosting Complex formulated by Clarins Research. Composed of sphinganine and panthenol, it aims to visibly lengthen eyelashes and strengthen them. Application after application, the brand announces visibly longer and thicker eyelashes.

At 44 euros for 8 ml, Clarins is banking on a two-in-one product

The SOS Lashes Serum Mascara is priced at 44 euros for 8 ml in Caramel shade. A price that takes on another dimension when you look at the product as the meeting of two beauty gestures: immediately applying makeup to the eyelashes and simultaneously providing them with care.

Its interest therefore mainly targets those who no longer want to choose between the appearance of their eyelashes once made up and the care provided over time. Instead of stacking serum then mascara, Clarins combines both functions in the same tube.

And it is probably on bare eyelashes that its promise is most interesting. Because behind the immediate effect sought in the morning, the SOS Lashes Serum Mascara aims for a visible change after 28 days, with eyelashes announced as thicker, longer and three times more voluminous.
