My favorite mascara I have ever used. It gives lashes the long, dark and dramatic look. I don't even need to use a lash curler!

I thought Maybelline's full and soft would be great, lovely product but I was wrong. When i apply this mascara, you can BARELY tell it's there, even if i put layers and layers or just a single layer. Also, it smudges immediatley after I blink, and i cant help when i blink can i? After a full day at school, i take a look in the mirror, and jesus christ!!! I have black circles underneath my eye, thanks MAYBELLINE (full'n'soft) for making me look like a PANDA at school.

Worthless junkie- not worth it

This mascara didn't do it for me. It did not flake or smear (which is good) but, it was VERY clumpy. It went on with a lot of product on the brush. All my eyelashes attached to each other, and I had to brush them with a lash comb a couple times. This won't replace my HG mascara (CG Triple).

In general, a good daytime mascara. I have a hard time layering coats for a dramatic effect, but it is good for a more subtle daytime and doesn't weigh down my curled lashes :) Very happy.

This is a really nice mascara, it doesn;t give a really dramatic look but it does give nice definition and is not clumpy at all, and my lashes do feel soft. It's my favorite regular mascara, I do like the Illegal Lengths mascara for a more dramatic evening look, but this is great for every day.

I was a fan of Maybelline's "Great Lash" for years. I am glad I tried Full and Soft. Works great, no clumping, full coverage.

So far so good. This is the first mascara in a while that lengthens and thickens my lashes, doesn't smear too bad and looks natural while accenting my eyes.

This has quickly become my favourite mascara. I like that it looks very natural and gives me lush lashes instead of spidery ones. Also, you can't beat the fact that drugstores such as Ulta have these on special so often, making them an even better deal for a wonderful product.

This mascara is really terrific. I have all these really expensive ones here from chanel to MAC to who knows what else - must have spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on mascaras. This one is my favorite and I use it everyday. It does dry up rather fast as someone else mentioned in a review, but it's so inexpensive it's definately worth replacing. I hear the waterproof is amazing as well but I hate all the time it takes taking off waterproof mascara so I stick with the regular one.

An over all good mascara, but it does tend to flake and smudge.

This is one of the best mascaras I've ever used. It layers well, letting it allow looks ranging from natural to intense. It only smudges if you rub your eyes a lot (and if you do, try using the waterproof kind), and the few clumps that occur can easily be fixed by patting your lashes (gently!) with your finger.
The packaging lasted longer than the mascara, which was nice. It wasn't exactly a work of art, but I'm more concerned with the makeup's look than the container's look.

I use it in waterproof! I use it for a more dramatic, yet not over the top, look. Can be slightly clumpy, but nothing that can't be fixed with a lash comb.

[Packaging]

It comes in a blue tube and silver cap (i think). It's the same no fuss packaging of drugstore brand (think L'Oreal puts in more effort in the design of the mascaras)

[Quality]

As like most, it comes in the wet formula. I tried this in BLack & Dark Brown. As a washable formula, i think it's rather good but of cuz it still smears for those with oily skin, tears easily or uses contact lens solution frequently like me. It does build decent length with 2-3 coats, clump-free but first wipe with tissue.
[Overall]
a cheap product that does delivers. To my opinion, Maybelline makes the best mascara when u compare prices with quality but the waterproof formula is my fav!

[Latest Updates]
i'm in a dilemma. frankly, i uses masacara on a daily basis and for that, i do not want my lashes to suffer for the daily regime of removing tough waterproof mascara off them (all that tugging & all. i know i should be gentle but inevitably i'll cause some 'damage'). in addition, i'm too lazy to use a oil-base remover prior to my face wash. Yet, i will prefer a functioning waterproof mascara so as to last through the whole day. sigh. frankly, i haven't found one yet. but other than waterproof. this mascara to me is the best. it allows me to build up volume (not much of curl) yet remain soft. no funky smell either. can be cheap (slightly off $10 if you buy it when there's sale discount at watsons, etc.)

I love the soft feel and especially the BRUSH SHAPE!!! This is what a mascara brush should be a football, so that you can really get at all the lashes all the way from root to tip. It definitely thickens and is a good color (Black). The only thing I will say negative is that EVERY single tube I have bought (at least 5) has dried out within 1 month of using. So, if you consider it's about $6.00, you'll need to buy a new one every 4 weeks.

This is a decent everyday mascara. I haven't had any problems with clumps or flakes, and it doesn't smudge. It looks very natural, so I wouldn't recommend it to someone looking for dramatic results.

I tried this a few years ago & didn't like it for some reason. Seeing as I couldn't remember why, I decided to give it another go. I'm very glad I did because it seems to be a good substitute for my dearly departed (discontinued) Lash by Lash. It's natural looking color with no clumping or smudging. This will definitely be my new mascara.

THIS MASCARA WAS TOO LIGHT, DIDN'T EVEN LOOK LIKE YOU PUT ANYTHING ON REALLY. AFTER PUTTING IT ON I HAD TO PUT ANOTHER COAT OF A DIFFERENT BRAND OF MASCARA(VOLUMINOUS BY LOREAL) TO MAKE IT LOOK GOOD, THEY WOKR GREAT TOGETHER!BUT I GUESS IT DOES WHAT IT SAYS IT WILL DO, THEY ARE SOFT, ONLY B/C ITS WAY TOO LIGHT!

The greatest mascara ever!! I have been using it in black for years. I have tried other mascaras but always go back to this one. A great price and lasts long enough (Sometimes I spritz mineral water on the wand to make the tube last longer).

This mascara is fantastic as far as not clumping, but it was just a little too natural for me. It also flaked a lot, and irritated my eyes.
