I’m picky about pretty much every single item in my beauty routine (it’s my job to have a strong opinion), but I’m extra particular when it comes to mascara. I expect zero clumping, no irritation (chronic dry eye and allergy sufferer), no running, long-lasting results, volume, length, and definition. It shouldn’t be too much to ask for (!!). And yet, I find fault with almost every single one that hits my desk. They either look heavy and thick, give me raccoon eyes the second my eyes water, or flake off onto my under-eyes by three pm. My gripes with the mascara market, however, are exactly what make Merit’s new drop so beyond exciting.
On June 25, the brand will release Clean Volume Mascara, a volumizing, tubing mascara that promises extreme length, mega volume, and no clumps. To make the launch even more exciting, our incredible friends at Merit are letting Marie Claire readers get early access. So instead of praying that you get off the waitlist like the rest of the world, bookmark this page, and check back on June 23. We have a special link that lets you check out 48 hours early, so you can get this formula on your lashes before everyone else.
