If you’ve ever spent five minutes trying to grab the three little lashes from the inner corner of your eye, you know how much a bad brush can ruin your eyes. Too big, it ends on the eyelid. Too rigid, it doesn’t catch anything. And when we insist, hello packages (all that for that).
This is precisely what Maybelline’s Sky High Very Black seeks to avoid. The famous pink tube has become known for its very long eyelash effect, but its interest does not stop there: its particularly fine and flexible brush will seek out eyelashes that we thought were almost non-existent.
This little brush will pick up the lashes that your mascara usually leaves alone

No need for an XXL bottle brush to obtain volume. Here, Maybelline has chosen the opposite: a narrow, soft and flexible brush that glides easily from root to tip. And frankly, on short or thin eyelashes, it changes a lot of things. It can grab those from the inner corner, separate the bangs and stretch the lengths without covering the eye with a huge amount of material. Maybelline also indicates that 9 out of 10 women who have tested Sky High recommend it. Not bad for a mascara at a low price.
Fibers to gain length without transforming your eyelashes into spider legs
The formula contains fiber and bamboo extract. The former contribute to this very lengthening effect while the texture seeks to keep the lashes light. Because yes, wanting more length doesn’t have to mean piling on four layers until the lashes start holding their own. The right move with the Sky High Very Black? A first layer from the roots to the tips to stretch the lashes, then a second only where you want more volume. On the outer corner, this also allows you to give a nice more open eye effect without taking out the false eyelashes at 7:30 in the morning.
Very Black: when you want black, real black
The Very Black lives up to its name quite well. This shade creates more contrast around the eye and works particularly well when natural lashes are light or you want a more pronounced look. Another detail that matters if your mascara generally ends up making you cry before noon: the formula is tested under ophthalmological control and advertised as suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.
Is Sky High mascara suitable for short lashes?
Yes, its fine and flexible brush is especially interesting on small eyelashes. It allows you to approach the root without holding a huge brush in front of your eye. It also catches the eyelashes located in the corners. The formula then provides length and volume. One or two coats are generally enough to modulate the result.
How to avoid clutter with Sky High?
Above all, avoid ironing fifteen times on a layer that is already dry. Place the brush at the roots then stretch it towards the ends. A second layer can be added as long as the first is still soft. It is better to work on a few areas rather than systematically covering the entire fringe. The eyelashes thus remain more separated and lighter.
Is Sky High suitable for sensitive eyes?
Maybelline indicates that the mascara is tested under ophthalmological supervision. It is also touted as suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers. This obviously does not guarantee that no person can react to the formula. If irritation occurs, it is better to stop using it. Make-up removal must also remain gentle to avoid weakening the eyelashes.
