Subject: New Gray-Brown Mascara Test — Etude Curl Fix

• 7:02 AM — Applied one coat (don’t forget: right eye always clumps more).

• Formula: still sticky in the first 30 sec, but not heavy.

• Color: 10/10. Gray brown is my new love language. Less harsh than black, more defining than brown. Subtle but not invisible. Ideal for “no makeup” days that are actually high maintenance.

• Curl hold: this mascara is holding on to my lashes like it’s got abandonment issues. It survives subway humidity, awkward crying in the office bathroom, AND windy crosswalks. Respect.

• Brush shape: why is it always trying to stab my inner corners? Must train hand.

• 8:12 PM — still curled. No flakes. One small smudge on lower lash line (left eye only — again, LEFT. Always.)

Conclusion:

Don’t toss the receipt. But also… buy a backup.
