The reviewer, Cristelle, purchased the Bye Panda Eyes mascara and was impressed with its performance considering its affordable price. They particularly liked the brush and found that the mascara coated their lashes well. Although it required a couple of layers, Cristelle acknowledged that most mascaras do not provide perfect coverage on the first application. They were pleased with the lengthening effect on their normally short lashes and expressed a desire to repurchase the product. Overall, Cristelle found the Bye Panda Eyes mascara by .essence. to be a worthwhile purchase, offering good results at a reasonable price.
