    I am so obsessed with Besame Cosmetics! Being a massive fan of Old Hollywood it's no wonder I adore their concept! 1930s Mascara (as it is now being called, they have dropped the 'Gingerbread' in...

    HOLY SMOKES, THIS PUPPY IS BACK IN STOCK. I'm stocking up. OK, I'm buying two tubes, and keeping fingers crossed that they keep it around this time. I love this mascara. It smells divine, gives...

    I don't get all the hate of this product. I love it. I love the gingerbread scent although it isn't strong. This mascara does not clump and makes my lashes super long. It is a mascara that gives...

    The one I have is simply "1930s Mascara". I like that there are only 7 ingredients in this. This is not meant as a volume or thickening mascara-it is based on vintage mascara. I enjoy the...

    As I don't live in the USA, I ordered this online on a whim when Besame were changing their stock around and I needed to stock up on some of their other products. When my package arrived I was...

    No smell, very black in coloring, but didn't do anything for my lashes even after using 3 coats. With one coat of other mascaras, I have long lush lashes so I know it's this mascara. Loved the...

    I bought this because I'm a whore for anything vintage or vintage-esque, and because I have a horrible time with mascaras irritating my eyes (flaking and fibers). I love the red and gold metal...

    Not impressive, too natural looking for my taste--not enought length or volume. I gave this to my mom. What a waste of money!

    Awhile ago I ordered from Besame, but never tried this mascara. Now that I'm on a no buy, I can't rebuy my fav (Clinique) and instead shopped my stash. This is a very lightweight mascara that...

    I'm very reluctant to pan this mascara because the packaging is sooooooo darn pretty, but unfortunately, thats about as far as I can go with this one. I find the initial effect underwhelming at...

    I love this product! Like a lot of us I bought during the sale so it was much less expensive than normal price, but I like it so much I might consider buying at full price in the future. I'm...

    Ah, Besame. I love this stuff. However, gingerbread? What gingerbread? Mine smelled vaguely old (that paint thinner-ish smell) and I thought, perhaps I had received an older tube. I think...

    This is a very good mascara for it's simple ingredients and "natural" preservative system (the "parfum composition" in the ingredients list). It's not as thick or waxy or clumpy as typical...
