i had heard many good things about this product so I was excited to try it, but sadly I was disappointed. it does a terrible job of separating my lashes and doesn't give enough volume. I also do not like the wet formula (fortunately it does dry a bit after a couple weeks) and find that it tends to clump. however, it does lengthen my lashes pretty well and it is waterproof but not extremely hard to get off. overall, I don't think this mascara is terrible but there are better mascaras out there (including ones from the drug store)

I have probably repurchased 5 tubes of this mascara within the past years. I absolutely love it. With my short asian lashes, this seems to be the only mascara that will hold a curl and lengthen my lashes so they are at least visible. It doesnt flake or that difficult to take off with a make up remover. However, it does smudge a bit at the end of the day. I wouldnt say this is my HG mascara, but I am satisfied with it.

My new HG mascara. I have long and bone straight lashes. It holds my curls perfectly, no other mascara can beat it. It's not clumpy, really gives my lashes a feather look. I prefer non -waterproof mascaras but will tolerate it .
I said goodbye to my long time HG mascara from L'oreal . Thank you L'oreal for all these years but we have to grow up and move on to our lives.

HG mascara! What I look for in a mascara is that it will hold my curl and not smear since I have straight Asian lashes and heavy monolids. This mascara is the best one I've ever tried in terms of holding my curl (keep in mind that I have only tried drugstore mascaras). My eyelids covers my lashes so that they point downwards rather than upwards, but this mascara holds the curl all day long, even after an intense workout at the gym. I must, however, admit that it slightly smears/transfers onto my upper lids, but having oily and heavy monolids, I think that a bit of smearing is very hard to avoid. But I must mention that it doesn't smear on my lower eyelids, nor is it at all flaky.
I would have liked the packaging to be a little prettier - the purple plastic tube makes it look very cheap, but I suppose that's what you can expect from a drugstore brand, right? Anyway, I adore this mascara and will never be without it. However, I think some day I would like to try the Hypnose Drama WP from Lancôme.

I love this product to death! If you love big brushes then you're in luck. Although it is an overall nice products I did have a few problems with it:
1. lashes were brittle after usage
2. the mascara kind of breaks or whatever, I don't know!
3. the mascara may clump if you don't REALLY know how to apply it

You have to try it to really get the picture.
on the bright side, IT BUILDS INCREDIBLY WELL

This stuff flakes.. which is disappointing. I don't know if it's because I got an old bottle and the formula's dried up a bit.

I was expecting a lot more out of this mascara, because I've seen some people's photos of them wearing it and their lashes look amazing. On me, not so much. Initially it seemed to lengthen, but in terms of volumizing I prefer the L'oreal Voluminous line of mascaras (in the gold tube) because it holds a curl (and hence, the volume) better. My lashes seem a little floppy wearing this mascara. I wouldn't repurchase.

No volume. Not waterproof in my experience. I have very long but very thin lashes, and this mascara basically made them look darker and that's it. Very disappointing! This might be a nice mascara for someone who just wants to define their lashes a little, but there are much better mascaras for that purpose. In conclusion: Nope.

I bought this to wear to weddings this summer (yep, I'm a crier), but didn't end up wearing it to any because I was so disappointed in how it made my eyelashes look. The one good thing I can say about this mascara is that the color I purchased, "Black Drama," is very dark. Unfortunately, it does nothing to curl, lengthen, or add volume to my naturally underwhelming lashes. With a name like The Falsies Volum' Express, I was expecting a dramatic look and what I got was a darker version of my natural lashes. Now it just sits in my bathroom, a waste of money and space. I would obviously not repurchase.

I guess like most products, on your first try it works wonders. My eyelashes were evenly spaced apart just like how it looks like normally, except the color is intensified. I might have been practicing poor mascara-care, so after a month the formula is quite clumpy now. But I'd say for its price, it's not bad at all. But I'm still on the look out for something better.
