KATE Mascara Lash Former EX BK-1 — curl-locking black mascara from Japan.
About this product
KATE Lash Former EX BK-1 Black is the black-shade iteration of KATE's curl-setting Lash Former EX mascara, built to lift, lock, and define lashes in a deep, striking black. The EX formula offers upgraded long-wear curl retention over the base version, keeping lashes raised and shaped all day — making it the go-to choice for those who want maximum curl hold with bold, classic black color.
How to use
- From the lash root, sweep the wand upward in one continuous motion, holding briefly at the tip to set the curl.
- Apply a second coat for bolder definition before the first layer fully dries.
- Allow to dry completely before touching eyes.
Ingredients
- Beeswax — forms a flexible curl-locking film around each lash that holds upward shape from morning to night without drooping.
- Iron Oxides (Black) — deliver intense, high-contrast black pigmentation for bold, defined lashes with maximum visual impact.
- Carnauba Wax — reinforces lash structure and provides a smooth, separated finish that prevents clumping.
FAQ
Does the curl really hold all day, even in heat and humidity?
The EX formula is engineered for enhanced curl retention in long-wear conditions; pairing with a mechanical lash curler before application gives the best all-day result in high humidity.
Will this smudge or transfer onto my under-eye area?
The formula is designed to resist smudging under normal wear; if you have oily lids or work outdoors, applying an eye primer beforehand helps prevent transfer.
How do I remove this properly without losing lashes?
Use a gentle oil-based or micellar cleanser — hold a soaked cotton pad against lashes for a few seconds before wiping, rather than rubbing.
Is this authentic and shipped from Japan?
Yes — 100% authentic KATE product sourced and shipped directly from Japan to hot, humid climates.
