You know how people talk about their hair being thick or fine? Well, I believe that the type of hair you have can also affect your lashes. Just like my fine, flat hair, my lashes lack volume and fullness. It's disappointing to not be able to achieve those va-va-voom lashes with just a few coats of mascara like many others can.
Sure, mascara can darken, lift, lengthen, and volumize my ultra-light lashes, but it usually takes multiple coats to achieve that dramatic effect. Unfortunately, this often weighs them down, causing them to fall flat or smudge by the end of the day. So, I've come to accept that my lashes are what they are.
But what if there was a mascara that could deliver remarkable pigment, length, volume, and separation with just a swipe or two? That would be a dream come true. And guess what? Thanks to the Huda beauty 1 Coat WOW! Extra Volumizing and Lifting Mascara, $23, that dream is now a reality.
My Honest Review of Huda 1 Coat Wow! Mascara
What I love about this lash masterpiece is the hot pink tube it comes in, along with its unique hourglass-shaped brush on one side and slightly domed shape on the other. This brush makes it incredibly easy to coat every single lash effortlessly. The dual-sided brush also allows for precise application on both upper and lower lashes, preventing any overwhelming of the lash line.
Because of this innovative design, I found that the mascara didn't clump up at the base of my lashes, resulting in beautifully lengthened and defined lashes without excessive product build-up. Moreover, I only needed to dip the wand into the tube once to coat each set of lashes. No more constant re-dipping and re-swiping required, which was truly impressive.

Overall, I believe that this easy-to-use mascara is a fantastic choice for those looking to achieve noticeable length and lift with minimal effort. If you desire extra volume, applying more coats will certainly do the trick. However, I did notice that when I layered it on excessively, my lashes felt more brittle and looked more spidery. Removing the mascara also became more challenging. Therefore, I prefer using just one or two coats, as the name suggests.
One thing worth mentioning is that while this mascara significantly lengthened and lifted my lashes, it didn't curl them as the clinical results of the formula claim. However, that's not enough of a deterrent for me. I'll simply use my trusty Tweezerman ProMaster Eyelash Curler ($24) before applying the mascara next time.
In conclusion, the Huda Beauty 1 Coat WOW! Mascara is a game-changer for those of us with thin, ultra-light lashes. With just one swipe, it provides a stunning transformation that will leave you feeling confident and ready to conquer the world. Say goodbye to multiple coats and hello to effortless beauty!
