In this episode of Beauty Talk Confessions, Kati is back with another Hot or Not / Trend Thursday, testing the Smoochies Long Lash Mascara in a real-time, no-filter review.

With Northern Arizona’s dry climate causing many mascaras to flake, smudge, or dry out, Kati puts this viral mascara to the test to see if it truly delivers on its promises. From its lash-enhancing serum ingredients to its all-day wear claims, she breaks down how it applies, how it feels on the lashes, and whether it lives up to the hype.

She also shares esthetician insight on lash health, why proper lash cleansing matters, and what could be holding your lashes back from growing—serum or not.

Kati walks through texture, clump factor, wearability, and overall performance, then shares who this mascara may work best for and gives her final Hot or Not rating.

Where to Get It

The Takeaway

Just because a product is packed with skincare ingredients doesn’t mean it’s right for everyone. Lash goals are personal, and finding the right mascara is about knowing what look and feel actually works for you.

Beauty Talk Confessions is a podcast that goes beneath the surface of the beauty industry. The stories, the struggles, the identity shifts, the healing, and the grit behind the glow.

 

Hosted by Kati Wasserman, esthetician, business owner, and product developer, each episode features real, raw conversations with beauty professionals, founders, healers, coaches, creators, and clients who have lived the truth behind beauty.

 

We talk about:


•⁠  ⁠identity and reinvention

•⁠  ⁠confidence, comparison, and self-worth

•⁠  ⁠the emotional and unseen side of beauty work

•⁠  ⁠entrepreneurship and the messy middle

•⁠  ⁠aging, wellness, hormones, and internal beauty

•⁠  ⁠success, failures, pivots, and the lessons that shape us

 

There’s no filter here, just honest conversations that remind us beauty is personal, powerful, and deeply human.

 

Whether you're in the industry or navigating your own relationship with beauty, Beauty Talk Confessions will make you feel seen, supported, and inspired to show up as your most authentic self.
