I loved this mascara! When I wore it, it looked like I had false lashes on. I've always used multiple mascaras, but this did the job of all those lengthening, volumizing, etc. mascaras in one! I will definitely continue to purchase this, although I can't say that it did it's intended purpose of making my lashes grow it's a great overall mascara! The only downside and reason I took off one lippie is that my packaging cracked. I went to screw the wand back in and the green cap literally cracked apart and the mascara could no longer be sealed and therefore became dried out, filled with germs, and useless.

This stuff is very smudgable. If you sweat or rub your eyes it will not only raccoon, but will also burn like he'll. You must be very careful applying it because a smudge is near impossible to remove without making a bigger mess. The applicator is classic and I love it. Applying twice leaves crumbs, but you only need one coat. It does the job of several mascaras in one. It separates, colors, and plumps. I do not think it lengthens though. I can't imagine wearing it every day to test that because I lack diligence and the patience required to apply it.

I'd definitely recommend this. It's great for going out in the evening

I passed by this a hundred times before deciding to try it. I was looking for something that would make my lashes grow or at least a mascara that would make them look longer. Wearing waterproof mascara on a semi regular basis in the summer left my lashes looking shorter and more sparse. I didn't think it would make my lashes grow to a noticeable degree but that's why I also bought the Ardell Lash and Brow growth treatment to wear at night and this to use during the day. I'm not sure which product (or maybe it was both) worked but my lashes are looking much healthier. The real reason I like this mascara though is because of how nice it makes my lashes look. It takes a couple coats but my lashes come out looking long, soft, full and fanned out. Even hours after application its still black and holding a curl. I will definitely repurchase this more than once.

I can't tell you how many people ask me if I have on fake lashes. I have been using this stuff, daily for about 1 year. And I do see a difference, I could afford to go a little cheaper and my lashes still look great! But, I am sticking with this stuff--because it has my lashes looking FAB-U-LOUSEEEEE!!!!

This is a good, cheap mascara. I can't attest to its lash-growing abilities--I don't think any mascara will help--but the formula doesn't flake or smudge and the brush makes it easy to get every lash without clumping.

So this did absolutely nothing for my eyelashes. Nothing. Nada. :(

BRUSH. The brush is a subtle diamond shape, with lots of little bristles. I actually like the brush a lot.

FORMULA. In the beginning it was really wet and gloppy and clumpy. It was awful. I stashed it away in the back of my drawer, and came back to it a month later. It's pretty nice now, but still prone to clumping.

LASH ACCELERATING POWER. This did nothing what so ever for my eyelashes. A bit of a disappointment, but now they are nice and thick thanks to my Ardell Brow and Lash Accelerator.

PACKAGING. The tube was nice and the cap a nice gold-green color, but all the writing wore off within 3 months!!

So, this was an okay mascara. Some people really like it, but I'm definately going to continue my search.

I got this as a gift, and I like it. It feels light on my lashes, unlike other ones that drag my curls down or feels like your wearing a lot, you know what I mean? It last all day and looks natural. It doesn't clump up on me.

Surprisingly, I grab this more than any of my high-end ones (Dior, Laura Mercier, etc). Not bad for a drugstore mascara.

Only downside, it's not waterproof. They do made one that's WP, but I haven't tried that one yet.

Also, I'm not noticing any difference on my lashes so I'm not going to say yes, this lengthens my lashes. But will definitely buy again.

I really, really liked this mascara. The wand was long and got into corners and hard to reach places, and the brush did a very nice job of accentuating the curl of my lashes. The colour I got was the blackest black and it wasn't too thin, wasn't too thick and covered my lashes nicely. The reason I didn't love this mascara is because I like to layer my mascara and when I went to do that with this mascara, it made my lashes clump together. Definitely though, one of the nicest drugstore mascaras I have used. Unfortunately I will not be repurchasing this product due to animal testing.

At first I was very optimistic about this product. However, after a 3months of constant use I noticed more & more of my eyelashes were falling out. I didn't notice any length growth which it promised & It didn't necessarily do anything for my lashes either. When I've washed it off I noticed residue (string) from the formula that remained in my eyes. continued >>
