These are it’s claims:
Primes lashes.
2 in 1 primer, that boosts mascara volume and length and cares for lashes.
Lashes have the appearance of being soft and feather like, and be stronger and more conditioned.

Jojoba oil to nourish.
Vitamin enriched.
Panthenol to encourage lashes to grow.
Rose canina oil for vitamin A and E to nourish, strengthen and smooth texture.
