I don't feel like this mascara added any additional length to my lashes versus my normal Lash Exact mascara. It doesn't clump at all and it comes off pretty easily but I don't feel like it does what it advertises as saying it will do.

Well, I bought this mascara when I was in San Francisco last year.
This mascara is GREAT!! I'm a big fan of spiky brushes, but these were a bit softer :)
If I curled my lashes, the mascara looked great on my eyes!

Pros:
-Covers every lash, even in the corners
-not too thick
-no clubs
- etc

Cons:
-not available in some other countries
-gets empty quickly...

I like this mascara, even though I'm not a fan of spiky plastic brushes. But this one is thin and longer than average, and I find it relatively easy to work with. The Brownish Black gives me defined and lengthened lashes that are noticeable, but not over the top. It's just water-resistant, though -- it doesn't smudge, but I don't need an oil-based remover -- it comes off easily with my micellar water. [PS. Dried out in a month, alas.]

I saw a lady at Target holding this mascara. She had rockin lashes, so I asked her if this product (the yellow tubed, water resistant CG Lash Blast) was good. She said it was... took it home, applied it (was another nufangled plastic applicator - I am afraid Im never going to get used to these) but I gave it a try anyway. It was very dry, and difficult to get any product on my lashes at all. I probably would have to do 10 layers to have it show up at all. The two nearly invisible layers I put on were very hard to get off as well. I used the generic of the Neutrogena eye makeup remover and it didn't come off at all. Used DHC Oil cleanser after that and after a lot of elbow grease it came off. FAIL!

I had high hopes that I could get a good day of "curl hold" with a water resistant, but no. My lashes went straight within minutes after using. The brush is great for lower lashes, but doesn't leave enough product on the upper, but since it doesn't hold the curl anyway, I too will only use it on my lower lashes. I often skip my lower since I have dark brows & lashes anyway (just not the tips) so I wouldn't buy it again just for the lower lashes since I can just use less with my regular CG Professional Waterproof.

This is the strangest mascara. It does nothing for my upper lashes at all. It does not build up enough to make my long, yet light-colored lashes show up. However, I like the mascara on my lower lashes. It makes my lower lashes look nicely feathered and darkened. I prefer L'oreal million lashes false fiber waterproof for my upper lashes, but hate it for my lowers.

I like the tiny brush -- great for getting every lash. Or it would be, if the product weren't so dry and pointless. MANY coats eventually looks like something (and the tiny brush does do the job of keeping lashes from clumping, as well), but weighs the curl right out. So, not for me. If you like quite a natural look but maybe with a touch of lengthening, this might work for you -- especially with small eyes or small lashes.

One coat is a natural effect that is hardly observable, you have to apply two coats to get some existence, but still, this is way too natural. It gives you (especially the lower lashes) a look that you weren't wearing anything on it at all.

Doesn't hold a curl very well, especially for my straight Asian lashes, it straightens my curl after using a eyelash curler. CG's clump crusher gives you much better effect, although not great with holding a curl, either.

Also, it's dry. I don't know if it's the one I bought really dry, or the formula. I tried soaking the tube in hot water but it doesn't help either. Won't buy again.

So i decided to buy this when a bunch of my friends were raving about it @ school. So i got all psyched and practically sped home to the local CVS. Might i say, i nearly cried when i realized it didn't live up to it's fame. I got waterproof because i'd just ran out of my regular waterproof mascara. So my lashes are pretty thick and pretty blond, so i mainly just need darkness and length. I believe my friends used the regular formula, and maybe that's what's wrong with it for me. It's definitely not waterproof... well sort of. It came off in the shower but if i cry/eye water... it's fine. So no blasting your eyes with water. I tried a few different ways of applying it because sometimes that really helps. I decided to keep it and use it as a base mascara for all my other mascaras. (i'm a lash junkie ;) ) If i swipe it along the back of my lashed (downwards) it covered my blond roots nicely. It dries pretty quick for me so then i'll curl them and apply another mascara. It hides the roots nicely and lengthens the wear time for my other regular mascara. Not a total loss.. just a little disappointed.

I am in love with this mascara. I'm normally not a Covergirl fan, just because I feel like their products are cheap and sort of overrated, but this is by far the best lengthening mascara I have yet to try! The brush is a soft, flexible plastic that doesn't pick up an overload of product. I love the finished look I get when I curl, apply, then curl again. Long, lush, pretty lashes! I will continue to buy. The waterproof holds a curl and color better than the non.

Love this mascara! Holy Grail! Love it!! Love the brush. Love the texture (not too wet, but not too dry, either). Able to use just a little or build length. Doesn't dry out. I think the brush really makes the difference for me. It's not a big, fat brush... Thin brush with short plastic bristles. For this price, I love this mascara.

I think this Lash Blast is a pretty good mascara. I have been using it for a while and it does flake or clump like some others I have tried. It's also pretty well priced too.

This product definitely does its lengthening job! My lashes looked so long after two coats, and after putting on 5 coats (a lot, i know) my lashes looked very long and volumised. It say this product is 'water resistant' but i wore it while i was showering and it all came off (i didn't use face wash).This product did not clump even after 5 coats. I was hoping that i could wear it while i was in the pool or at a beach (summer holidays) but i guess i'll have to find another product for that. But for normal everyday use its GREAT!

Wow, so many negative reviews. I think this mascara isn't that bad. I have good lashes to start with so on me it gives the right amount of color and length for a daytime look. I don't curl my lashes so I cant speak on its ability to hold curl. I purchased this in very black. I havent experienced any smudging and it removes easily. There is mild flaking around week four of use. I like the long thin wand and for me it is easy to work with. I agree with the other reviewers that it looks best if built up. I would reccomend trying it to see if it works for you. I would say yes to repurchasing but I like to try new things so I probably won't.

so I would rate this product at the same level as the original orange cover.
after putting this on before work... I looked like I really bad under eye circles by lunch =(
like the original lash blast, this didn't stay on at all...it smudged/ smeared & its supposed to be waterproof... sad...
what a waste of $8.99... I will not buy again.

Works great on my short, spare, straight Asian lashes! Lashblast length defines, doesn't clump (I do 3-4 coats), and lengthens. No volumizing, but it DOES hold a solid curl! My eyes look awake and natural, with shiny dark long curled lashes. It is a great every day mascara for me. I would use the Falsies when I want a smokey, slightly clumpy dramatic look, but for daily use Lashblash Length Water Resistant is my new fave.

It leaves pretty eyelashes... natural look. The overall product dries very fast... Don't like the long stick, it could be smaller for better control.

Love this mascara!! I have extremely sensitive eyes and this is the first mascara that doesn't irritate and make them itchy. I actually gave up on wearing mascara at all for a few year because the problem was that bad. I also love that it doesn't go on all clumpy. So you don't have these gobs of mascara on the lashes.... just nice long defined lashes. Also my lashes tend to be really straight and if I put this mascara on right after I curl them, it hold that curl in the lashes all day. Lastly, it doesn't give me black smudges below my eyes by the end of the day -- it stays on the lashes where it belongs!

This mascara stinks. No really it is seriously staaanky. I'm not sensitive to smells, i don't really care but even after I put it on I can smell it and it gives me a headache. It does make my lashes longer and it doesn't make them crunchy. Very soft.
