The Bottom Line

Believe it or not, Physicians Formula OrganicWear Jumbo Lash Mascara is the very FIRST Organic Mascara!  Even its brush is an 100% Recyclable Eco-brush.  Its large packaging and jumbo brush reminds me of CoverGirl’s Lashblast packaging.  However, don’t let its bulkiness fool you, this wand is super easy to apply.

As for performance, Physicians Formula OrganicWear Jumbo Lash Mascara in Ultra Black darkens and lengthens my dark lashes, giving me an overall pretty and natural look.  Surprisingly, it didn’t clump or smudge on me.  It doesn’t quite give the same oomph as CoverGirl Lashblast, but for work wear and for FREE (below), it’s worth a shot!

FAB TIP: Try this mascara for FREE (yes, FREE!) with Physicians Formula Mail-In Rebate!
