When I was reached out on Instagram if I wanted to try Younique mascara, I didn't have to think twice. I've heard great stuff about this product! If you don't know about Younique, it's about...

"Feel Beautiful. Look Beautiful. Be Beautiful. Inside and out! Our mission is to uplift, empower, validate, and ultimately build self-esteem in women around the world through high-quality products that encourage both inner and outer beauty and spiritual enlightenment while also providing opportunities for personal growth and financial reward."

I got this from the website. They said it better than I ever could! Unfortunately, Younique products are not sold in stores. You need to purchase through a team member from Younique brand. I'm fortunate to work with a great one, Jamie McIntyre, that I highly recommend!

Ingredients:
Thoughts: When I first received the package, I was pretty impressed. It came in a fancy case that reminded me of cases for your glasses/sunglasses. It's definitely not a cheap one but one I can see myself using in the future.
Here's how it looks open. After I finish using the mascara, I'm going to remove the black straps from the case and use it for other things.
Here are the Transplanting Gel, right one, and Natural Fibers. Before I talk more about the product, let me give you the direction from the website.

"To prepare your eyelashes for optimal results, first apply one thin coat of your own regular favorite mascara and let it dry. Then, apply Moodstruck Transplanting Gel to your lashes.

Immediately following, while the gel is still wet, apply the Moodstruck Natural Fibers.

Reapply the Transplanting Gel a second time to secure the natural fibers onto your lashes."

Jamie recommended I don't use my own mascara. Just start off with the Transplanting Gel, Natural Fibers, and then end it with Transplanting Gel. She said she had better result this way. I followed her recommendation.
Here's a closer look at the Transplanting Gel. In my opinion, it looks like a normal mascara. This is the first product you apply onto your lashes from root to the tip.
While your lashes are still wet from Transplanting Gel, you apply the Natural Fibers. I highly recommend doing one eye at a time. You will see the fibers attaching onto your lashes. It'll grow and thicken. Then to seal the fibers, you coat your lashes with the Transplanting Gel.

Now for how it looks on me...
Step 1: Transplanting Gel
This is my lashes with Transplanting Gel only. It just coats the lashes and prepares for the Natural Fibers.
Step 2: Natural Fibers
It's not the best picture but you can see the fibers.
Step 3: Transplanting Gel
I sealed the fibers with the Transplanting Gel.
Comparison of mascara vs none:
Look at the difference! I went from non-existence lashes, right, to fuller gorgeous ones.
Here's an overall look. Unfortunately, you cannot see the lashes but I've been getting a lot of compliments. It's very noticeable in person.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, I find everything high-quality. I'm impressed with the case, as well as, the mascaras. The packaging of the Transplanting Gel and Natural Fibers are not cheap. It's sturdy, well-made, and best of all travel-friendly. If you do take the case, it can be kind of bulky. I also think you can put extra stuff inside the case to save some space. For example, you can put small brushes and even lip products. It's just a suggestion. If you don't want to take the case, the mascaras will not break or leak. Secondly, the steps of applying the mascaras might be a little bit time consuming compared to applying normal mascaras but you will not get this result with any normal mascaras. What can I say other than it's amazing! I've gotten so many compliments. My friend even asked if she can get it from Sephora. Third, I was most worried if the mascaras would weigh my lashes down. From my experience, a lot of non-waterproof mascaras make my curled lashes fall straight down. It's not a pretty sight. This mascara didn't completely held my lashes but it definitely did not weigh it down. It probably fell about 5-10% which in itself is amazing! I am happy with that. Lastly, my lashes looked full and longer the entire day until I removed it.

Pros:
* High-quality packaging.
* Sturdy case that you can use after finishing the product.
* Travel-friendly.
* Holds curls.
* Lengthens.
* Makes lashes fuller.
* Easy to remove.
* Lasts all day.

Cons:
* Cannot purchase in stores.

Would repurchase: Yes!
