ZAO Mascara - Aloe Vera

Yes, the ZAO Aloe Vera Mascara is specifically formulated with gentle, natural ingredients like organic aloe vera and is described as hypoallergenic, making it suitable for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers.

First, work the upper lashes by holding the brush horizontally closer to the root. Then, sweep upwards with a zigzag motion. For an enlarged eye effect, insist on the outer corners. For a more open look, focus on the center.

Refillable means that the inner mascara cartridge can be replaced once empty, allowing you to reuse the outer packaging. This reduces waste and is more environmentally friendly.

The mascara has a Period After Opening (PAO) of 6 months. It's recommended to use it within this timeframe for optimal performance and to prevent any bacterial contamination.

The Dark Brown shade (091) offers a softer, more natural definition compared to the Black shade (090). Both provide volume and length, but the brown is often preferred for a subtle enhancement or for those with lighter hair colors.

Yes, this mascara is certified vegan and cruelty-free, meaning it contains no animal-derived ingredients and has not been tested on animals.

While long-lasting, it can typically be removed with a gentle oil-based makeup remover or micellar water. For best results, hold a soaked cotton pad over your closed eye for a few seconds before gently wiping away.

Ensure the cap is sealed tightly after each use. Avoid pumping the wand in and out of the tube, as this introduces air. If the formula is consistently dry, consider if it's past the 6-month PAO. Ensure proper cleaning of the wand.

Allow each coat to dry slightly before applying the next. Ensure you are not applying excessive amounts of moisturizer or eye cream near the lash line before application. The formula is long-lasting, but heavy moisture can affect wear.

Apply the brush closer to the lash root and use a zigzag motion while sweeping upwards. For more intense results, build up layers gradually, allowing each layer to set slightly. Ensure the lash-by-lash brush is clean and free from clumps.

While hypoallergenic, discontinue use if irritation persists and consult a healthcare professional. Ensure the product has not expired (check PAO). Clean the applicator thoroughly.
