High Impact Mascara
Product details High Impact Mascara is a multi-benefit mascara that adds maximum volume with definition and length effortlessly. Specially developed brush and formula work together to dramatically thicken lashes while combing for separation.

Our Verdict
Looking to get in the party mood? We love this range from Clinique; the products are beautifully produced in a glamorous silvery packaging. The blusher and the Eye Shadow Quad also have mirrors, essential for make-up on the go. The eye-shadows are rich deep and sultry, perfect for party eyes. The mascara really does add immediate definition and impact, the blusher adds subtle colouring, but our favourite has to be the range of lipsticks and lip colours, stunning colours and perfect for creating fabulous lips!
