Last week, I got a sample of Mirenesse Secret Weapon mascara in a goodie bag. Mirenesse is an Australian cosmetics line that can be difficult to track down in the States; like Imju Fiberwig, Secret Weapon coats lashes rather than painting them.

Using Secret Weapon is a little different than working with traditional mascaras. You're supposed to apply it from the outer lash to the inner lash, jiggling the wand from root to tip. Although the formula is tear-proof, it can be removed with warm water alone—which makes this a good product for frequent travelers, since you don't have to pack separate eye makeup remover.
