I bought this in waterproof by mistake and I really like it. The wand is large and fluffy, which I really like, and it gives me a really natural look. It adds a decent amount of length, but what I really love about it is that it holds a curl well (which I've had trouble with in the past), it doesn't smudge (probably because it's waterproof), and I can add many layers without worrying about clumping! Overall, I'm pretty happy with this product. It's not HG, but it's decent and it makes my lashes look quite nice.

Its a nice mascara, the wand feels delicate hard to apply the mascara with a heavy hand almost flimsy. Its gives me the look I like which is natural and separates my lashes. If your looking for big lashes with coats and coats of mascara then this might not be for you.

I was so excited to try this mascara. I'm so sad that I ended up not liking this one at all. The brush was really big and fluffy but it was too flimsy. The tip of the wand bends and I found that to be very annoying. I didn't feel like this mascara lived up to what it advertised. I didn't like it :( I'll be sticking to my Falsies.

I love the formula, (it is,however, on the wet side which doesn't bother me) but hate the wand! (as another poster mentioned, the "flex feature of the wand".) I will use a different wand & not purchase this particular Maybelline mascara again-only for that reason. Maybelline makes some of the best drugstore mascaras. Wish this had a different wand! (I purchased the regular, not waterproof formula, I never use waterproof mascaras) And I got it in the very black) continued >>

Gives nice soft defined full lashes. washes off easily. Cheap. The formula is on the wet side but it gets better after using it a few times

My mom handed down this mascara to me after using it one time and hating it, I didn't really understand why she would hate it so much (she's generally picky) so I decided to take it from her anyway. Her complain was that here eyelashes were falling off when she tried taking it off. Still, I took it. As soon as I used it the product was super flaky it went on really dry and had to apply at least 4 coats to get SOMETHING out of it. I felt like I had a piece of trash in both my eyes the whole entire day. I will never buy this product again, my eyes felt irritated and I still can't get the residue off since yesterday even after washing my face 3 times with face wash and showering. Horrible product.

I've only used the Mega Plush (Waterproof) for about 4 days so far. I'm all about the natural look when it comes to mascara because my lashes are already long and full. I love Maybelline mascaras like the Great Lash and the One By One, but I hate the Colossal or the Falsies because they just deposit too much product and my lashes look spidery and so fake. The Great Lash gives me the best natural lashes while the One By One gives me nice full lashes. I think the Mega Plush is kind of in between the two. So far, it gives me a fairly natural look that I really like. It's also the only mascara I use on my lower lashes. It doesn't smudge and my lashes don't look clumpy or overly black. I like the gel formula. Not a huge fan of the bending brush but it's easy to deal with. I'm not sure if I'll repurchase yet because I really like the One By One and want to buy that one again. Not sure if the Mega Plush is worth it when I have my other two favourites, but I still like it very much nonetheless and I don't regret buying it. This stuff does not flake or budge (the waterproof version, anyway). Very good!

I love this mascara. I'm all about the natural look. My eye lashes are long and stick straight. I find this mascara to be perfect in holding my curl and keeping my lashes looking natural. Love love love :)

Product: It gave me lots and lots of volume, but not enough length to match it so I looked like i had spider lashes ahaha...it wasn't very flattering. Throughout the day it also started to flake and smear, and the little flakies kept getting in my eye, which was amazingly uncomfortable. With 1 coat, my lashes looked really feathery and a bit more black, with 2 coats, the clumping galore started and from then onwards, it went downhill...dum dum DUMMMMMM

Packaging: I love the colours on the packaging, I think its so cute ! It's very typical maybelline volumn express with the bright colours and slightly fatter tube. However, I didn't like the brush, actually I HATED the brush. It would get stuck in the base of the lashes and then fly off my lashes because im trying hard to get the brush through =.=; Yeah it was pretty difficult to get it evenly applied.

Overall: It's decent, jk, No I don't like this mascara. Maybe if i wanted a natural lash look, but thats rarely, wait no, it doesnt happen ! Just knowing that I'm wearing this mascara and the chances that it might flake into my eyeball horrifys me (contact lens user).

The only thing I loved about this product was the packaging. Maybelline really downgraded with this stuff. It's VERY clumpy and doesn't really give much length- it also flaked alot. Im sticking to the rocket and one by one.
