i really like this mascara but i dont use it by itself. i use this as a first coat to lengthen my lashes and then use maybelline collossal to volumize my lashes. they make my lashes look amazing :) the bristles on the wand do start to get a little clumpy but it still works for me

I bought Lycra Lash Extender, Sexy Curves & Extra Super Lash all on the same day. I found them all on sale for $4 each so wanted to compare as I had read lots of reviews and was still undecided.
I have your typical Caucasian eyelashes, brown with medium length & medium curl.
Lycra Lash extender is probably the worst of the 3 mascaras in terms of length or volume. I didn't find this product to do anything other than tint my lashes black and coat them lightly giving a very natural look. I think the problem is that the actual mascara is a bit too thin. Perhaps I will leave it open overnight & see if it thickens up to a nicer consistency.

I found Sexy Curves to be the best for me out of the 3 by far, it actually gives not only a bit more length but also a good amount of volume & it holds the curl.
It's not messy & the brush is actually really easy to use.

If you are trying to decide which one to get, I suggest Sexy Curves as it's the only one that works. continued >>

YES I LOVE THIS PRODUCT! Best mascara ever! It doesn't clump up, and it only takes a few swipes to get your eyelashes longer and improved! It has a fairly cheap price, and it has the best brush. Definitely, recommend this.

I love this stuff! It's gorgeous on and doesn't clump easily. My only problem is I have to wipe off the wand every 3 uses or so because it gets too gummy.

Didnt like the brush, the bristles are too spikey. The formula is almost sticky and my lashes stick together very easy. Makes spiderleg lashes. Lengthened about10% no volume.

Incredible mascara. Makes my lashes longer, and goes on beautifully with zero clumping. Doesn't flake. Gives a small amount of curl, but nothing to get excited about. the brush is long, the bristles are great for my lashes and my lashes look wonderful with this, but not too overally made up. Just long, full, separated, black lashes. Dries quickly.

(I have no problems with this clumping at all as others have stated...however, i have a long time habit of wiping ALL my wands before application, so that may be why. )

I would recommend this mascara to anyone. Love the tube too :)

Don't bother with this mascara! Didn't do anything. I kept putting on layer after layer trying to thicken it and it didn't work. Waste of money.

Normally I like volumizing mascaras, but I thought I would try this one due to the promise of 60% longer lashes.

I got no extra length, zero volume and my curl drooped. Such a waste of time and money.

Skip this one!

This mascara claims to lengthen and curl. I got straight, heavy, unnatural lashes similar to a previous poster. I also did not get any added volume. The wand was bad as well - the sparse bristles were fussy to work with and left clumps galore. The formula is pretty wet, so I had to wait forever to try to comb the clumps out. The one pro: it doesn't smudge too badly. Would not repurchase.

This is one of the few mascara that I've tried that is actually pretty 'wet'. I've tried so many different mascaras and most of them are pretty thick or dry up quickly. The wet ones, I find, are easily to apply on the lashes. This partiular one have thin bristles on the brushes.
