A unique micro-pulsing effect allows the brush to penetrate deep into the lash bed when you twist the cap, and comb lashes, giving three effects; volume, length, and separation in one product.
Anne Carullo, Senior Vice President of Global Product Development and Innovation at Estee-Lauder, says: 'There is no need for perfect application technique, because the brush works on its own separating and fanning lashes beyond brushstrokes by-hand could ever achieve.'
