Product details

Clinique Lash Building Primer is a moisturizing undercoat applied before mascara to condition lashes, improve mascara hold, and prep sensitive eyes for longer-lasting definition.

Designed to sit beneath your favorite Clinique mascaras, this lightweight primer adds a smooth, hydrating base that helps mascara cling more evenly while remaining gentle on delicate eye skin. Ophthalmologist-tested and fragrance-free, it removes easily with standard makeup removers and is formulated for contact lens wearers and those with sensitive eyes. Note: it is not recommended for use with tubing mascaras such as Lash Power or High Impact Zero Gravity.

How does this primer improve mascara performance?

The primer creates a thin, conditioning film over each lash so mascara applies more evenly and grips better. That means fewer clumps, improved separation, and a foundation that helps mascara last through the day.

  • Smooths lashes for even mascara spread
  • Improves mascara adhesion and longevity
  • Minimizes clumping and flaking when layered properly

What makes it safe for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers?

Clinique formulates this primer without added fragrance and subjects it to ophthalmologist review. The gentle, allergy-tested formula reduces the risk of irritation while remaining suitable for people who wear contacts.

  • Ophthalmologist-tested for eye safety
  • 100% fragrance-free and allergy-tested
  • Compatible with contact lens wearers

How do I use Lash Building Primer in my routine?

Apply one even coat to clean, dry lashes before your mascara. Let the primer set briefly—just a few seconds—then follow with your chosen Clinique mascara for best results. Remove at the end of the day with your regular makeup remover.

  • Brush on primer first; allow to set slightly
  • Layer mascara over primer; avoid tubing mascaras
  • Removes easily with standard Clinique makeup removers

Will this add volume or length on its own?

The primer is formulated to condition and prepare lashes rather than dramatically thicken or lengthen by itself. Its primary role is to improve the look and wear of the mascara you apply on top.

  • Conditions lashes for healthier-looking application
  • Enhances the performance of your mascara choice
  • Not a standalone volumizer—best used under mascara

Who is this for: Clinique Lash Building Primer suits anyone seeking a gentler way to boost mascara performance—especially those with sensitive eyes, contact lens wearers, and people who want smoother, longer-lasting mascara application without added fragrance. If you use tubing mascaras, choose a different base product; otherwise, this 0.16 oz conditioning primer is a lightweight, clinically minded step for everyday lash prep.
