My sister bought this for me last Christmas and it's only recently that I've opened it and started using it on a regular basis. I think it's a great mascara. I have sparse, stubby excuses for lashes and it really does give them added oomph! Applied after using my curlers, the before and after is amazing. Such a difference. The only things I'm not too keen on is the price and that it doesn't seem to work as well on my lower lashes. I have to use a wetter mascara for them, which isn't too much of a hassle.
I'd buy this again if I had the money to splash out.

This is quite expensive at the cost of £11.00, but it's so worth it. It made my lashes super long and defined, and it held curl easily. I had long, noticeable eyelashes throughout the day, so the staying power is awesome. There is no clumping at all, but the formula is surprisingly wet and takes forever to dry. Smearing is very likely, so if that's your biggest mascara pet peeve, don't invest in this. I have thin, short, and dark lashes, so wands that look similar to this one are key for extreme length and average volume.
I love this mascara. If you have my issues when it comes to your lashes, do get this!

Worst mascara I have ever used. I love the Body Shop products in general, their shampoo and conditioner are the only type I buy- well worth the price, unlike this mascara.
It takes SO long to dry, makes a complete mess, feels sticky up to 15 minutes after applying, and goes clumpy by the end of the day. Once you've removed the excess mess around the eyes, it does look good- but this doesn't last.
I bought it as I trusted the brand and thought that with the price tag, it would be at least reasonable, but I was wrong.
Bought it a week ago, and am so fed up with it that I have now discarded it. Definitely would not recommend it!

I've used this mascara 3 times and I will continue using...because it was a gift.
This mascara makes my lashes long, defined and it makes my eyes bigger BUT it is sticky on my lashes and it takes a while to dry and I just have to keep my eyes in one position or I will have mascara above and underneath my eyes. I still get dirty but I clean it fast with a q tip.
Plus after few hours, it gets underneath my eyes and I look like a racoon!
I don't know if I will repurchase when I will finish it.

This is just an average mascara- not great, not terrible. It applies nicely with a comb-like wand and does live up to the claim to divide your lashes. You end up with a nice natural look. However, it takes a long time to dry and as I'm rushing out the door in the morning and take a quick last glance at my makeup I keep noticing that it's already smudged under my eyes. It holds up okay during the day, but definitely lasts no where near as long as other (cheaper) mascara's I have tried. I'll probably use it up but no repurchase.
Considering it costs almost as much as a high-end mascara, I would expect more.

This mascara was the 1st TBS mascara i ever bought and honestly, I do not like this mascara at all. It does not divide my lashes... My lashes were all clumpy after application. And every time I blink I get this sticky feeling because the top lashes will slightly stick to the bottom lashes. However, it did extend my lashes a little bit.

I had high hopes for this product, because I normally love it when mascaras have a plastic brush, but it is one of the worst mascaras I've ever tried out. It doesn't dry completely after application. Your lashes keep sticking to your lower lashes throughout the day. Very annoying. The brush isn't that good either. It gives you very clumpy eyelashes. Doesn't lengthen them or whatsoever. Would not buy this again. I'm just going to stick with my max factor - masterpiece mascara. It is my HG mascara.

This is a extremely average mascara. It it is liquidy and goes on with a rubber like brush. It separates lashes nicely and holds a curl just like any drug store mascara.It doesn't run or flake, but it doesn't last all day. After about 6 hours I find myself putting more on. This like all body shop mascaras comes in a true brown that doesn't go black very nice for the gingers. If I had paid $6 for this, I would buy it again, however, it is not worth the $16 CAD I paid for it - it's just so average. I'll use it up because there is nothing wrong with it, but there is nothing great about it either.
EDIT: after a few weeks, it starts to turn and smell REALLY bad!

This mascara leaves my lashes natural looking and not clumped together, just the way I want them to be. There really isn't so much more to say about it. Personally I like this kind of rubber mascara brushes the best, it keeps the lashes apart and paints them one by one (at least thats how it seems to me).
I'm still looking for that mascara that will give me a strong "wow"-feeling, but if I get bored searching for it, I could consider going back to this one.
