i was hardly expecting anything from this mascara but it impressed me very much.

the packaging was very high quality and the product was not too sticky or clumpy.

it gave my lashes a natural look and i love that as i have quite long lashes that tend to look fake with most mascaras. it gave them nice volume and was easy to get off and smudge proof (AMAZING as i live in a desert) i love it <3 continued >>

This mascara does live up to its claims and gives dramatic volume. I just do not like what it takes to get there. Application is VERY messy and I cannot put this on without getting it all over my undereyes and lids, which is such a hassle trying to fix without messing up my eyeshadow and concealer. NYC does make some decent cosmetics (mascara among them), but I do not recommend this product nor would I repurchase.

awsome smudge free non waterproof basic mascara. does not irritate or burn my sensitive eyes at all! this thickens and adds look of fullnes but does not lengthen so i first apply instant lash , curl then a coeat of showtime...PERFECT! its just like the max factoe 2000 calorie i loves so much till they discontinued it :( however i believe this combo is actually better at holding my curl on my short asian lashes and is more smudgeproof. im very happy. got this %40 off reg price of 3.99 at rite aid and the instant lash at walmart for $1...STEAL!

I wasn't expecting much from this mascara, but it's become one of my faves. For the price (£1.99), it's pretty decent quality. My short, sparse lashes seem to love it. Used in conjuction with my curlers, I can really see a difference in terms of volume. It does what it says it will do! I'd recommend this mascara, and I can see myself buying it again once I run out.

I give this 4 rating because it does everything it claims. I was surprised by the price: i got it extremely cheap. It's quite black and makes your eye-lashes as long as Diorshow, though it is not as buildable. I like that it is extremely black.
[UPDATE]
Pros:
Extremely black
Not scented
Cheap
Volumizing

Cons:
-The brush. i switched with Diorshow brush which I already had and the results were much better. The brush you buy is just standard and not good for much.
- Prone to flaking

I had to give the packaging a 1 because it makes a mess outside the tube and because of the wand. I wouldn't repurchase unless I was on the same budget I am at the moment.

This didn't work. It was basically a black tint on my eyelashes. But it does have super cute packaging. And the price is awesome for this. I gave it to my mom, maybe she can use it haha.

I wear this mascara everyday! I apply NYC High Definition then add this over it to really thicken my lashes. The High Definition separates my lashes, and this mascara adds more drama to my eyes which I really like, plus the price is excellent. It also lasts all day which is really important to me since I'm a student, and I like make up that I can apply in the morning for classes and still looks good at night when I meet friends. I really like the combination of mascaras, and I don't mind applying two different ones in the morning so I'll probably stick with this combination for awhile.

These just recently came out, I believe for the Halloween Limited Edition collection. SAVE YOUR MONEY! This is a nothing-new mascara. Separates, all right, but does nothing for lengthening. Just an ordinary mascara - hell, even Maybelline's Great Lash is better! I was severely disappointed!
