I only use mascara during shows with my marching band (I'm in the colorguard - flag spinning, rifle/sabre throwing people) and that requires quite a lot of makeup. This mascara has held out through 6 competitions, 8 parades and countless other performances. It doesn't smudge and it doesn't make my lashes look and feel "trantula-ly". It defines and holds true until you want it off your lashes. I love it!!

My holy grail. I have one other tube of Volum' Express, for when I want thicker lashes - this doesn't thicken my fine lashes that much, I find. But it absolutely Does Not Clump and make my lashes look silky and natural--or as natural as black/brown lashes can look on a fairskinned redhead. And at $5 a tube, I can repurchase every two months, which is what I prefer to do with mascara. I'll never pay high-end again in this category.

This is a great mascara for volume. It builds well with minimal clumping and flaking. Comes off semi-easily, needs makeup remover sometimes, depending on how thick it was layed on. Great price, too.

I have to eat some crow here I think! I haven't used Maybelline mascara since I was in high school. I guess I was kind of a drugstore makeup snob for a while. I have been using Lancome's Defincils and Ampicils and was having problems with clumping and smudging after several hours. Also wasn't too happy with anything else I tried, including Clinique and Estee Lauder. I started reading the reviews and comments on the MUA board and decided to give it a try. It's great and I love it! Bought the waterproof kind and it definitely stays on til you're ready to take it off. I've got long thick eyelashes anyway, but this stuff really makes them stand out. No more clumping or smudging. Great stuff!
Update: 1/24/04...Had to quit using this a few months ago because it started to smudge underneath my eyes! It's waterproof, so I don't get it. Tried it again last night and it still smudges so..I've changed my rating and will not buy again.

i got this after reading great reviews on it! AND since i got an eye infection i had to throw out my regular GWP estee lauder more than mascara....
so i picked this up at walmart for only $5CAN!!! it was a great deal...and it's not bad! does sortta dry out my lashes more than the MTM from estee lauder...but a GREAT drugstore mascara...worth the price! =) i would pick this up again...if i can't get a hold on another GWP MTM!

This is great Mascara! It made my skimpy short lashes look full and beautiful! I really like the wand on this, it really separates the lashes. No clumps! Also, I have the waterproof version. I would buy again, and again!

Who would have believed that this wonderful mascara would perform better than the high dollar ones on the market - glad I came across this mascara after hearing all the wonderful MUA hype - makes my lashes look so lush and full!

Absolutely FABULOUS mascara. I have short, puny lashes and have forever been in search of a mascara that will not just lengthen them, but plump them up as well! This mascara does all of that, and by far surpasses all others in my book (and I have tried all the others...Lancome, Chanel, Clinique, MAC, etc. etc...). All I need is to curl my lashes, swipe on some of this, and voila! Beautiful lashes, and I don't always feel the need to put on liner, either!

I have very short sparse lashes and have tried every mascara MUA gals have recommended (grand curl, lash out, voluminous, volum, coup de theatre, definicils, 2000 calories) and NONE of them gave me natural long, volumized lashes but Full N Soft! Big fat rave here! My lashes aren't clumpy, brittle/hard and it actually lengthens and volumizes! It doesn't volumize dramatically so this is a great everyday mascara

I definitely recommend this, it's my holy grail mascara now! :)

This product did not make my lashes stiff nor did it flake off. However, it went on clumpier than I expected and it did not thicken my lashes as much as I hoped.

My fault for not getting the waterproof formula, but this stuff did make my lashes look great. But, it also flaked a lot and bothered my eyes. I think I'm going to try the waterproof formula next.

This is such a great mascara! It really does make your lashes look fuller and longer, without smudges or clumps. I have this in Very Black and I think it looks great. Also, I prefer the waterproof version.

This used to be my holy grail mascara. It still kind of is, I like using it for everyday, but I don't generally wear mascara during the day so I end up not wearing it that much. I like a more dramatic mascara for night time as my lashes are nonexistent. I still like this mascara though, and I always have one around. Get the waterproof version, it's much better.

this was an o.k. mascara. i really like Lash Discovery much much better.
--------->UPDATE : i tried this again in 5/2005 and i just love it!!!!!!! lash discovery just didn't give me enough ooomph, but Full and Soft is a great thickening mascara without any clumps (up to 3 coats with no clumps) also...no racoon eye smudging which is a big plus in my book. it lasts all day without flaking...and most importantly, it looks *so* natural! very soft to the touch, which my DH loves. my HG mascara. (much better than Max Factor or covergirl or l'oreal!)

I really like this mascara. Mabelline mascaras are so great. The only bad thing was that I had a hard time getting it off my lashes. Perhaps it was the eye remover??

This is a great mascara. I also wear contact lenses and experienced no irritation. This mascara made my medium length, medium thick lashes look great and I experienced no clumps. Huge rave!

Works great on my lashes and usually doesn't clump much. I have sensitive eyes and wear contact lenses. This doesn't irritate my eyes.

This is good stuff for the price. It doesn't clump too much, and I can control how much goes on my poor, sparse lashes. Nice balance of length and volume.
