I heard maybe this product was discontinued?... I used this mascara before I started using HE brands and it is one of the only "drug store" mascaras I can recommend. It didn't clump, didn't flake, and didn't bother my sensitive eyes (I wear contacts and lack oil production from my glands). The brush is nice, too. It is not a common bristle brush, but one of those plastic/rubbery kinds. I think that helps it not clump as much product onto the brush. The only complaint I have is that it dried out relatively fast.

I was surprised that this product is discontinued. I bought this last week from a larger supermarket in Portland. The one near my home doesn't have this brand. I really love the flexible brush, and it make applying fun. There really wasn't much of a difference between the Glam Eyes Mascara and the Sexy Curves one. Both give me volume with some curl, and smears a bit on the bottom of the eyes if I blink while the mascara is wet. However, the brush on Glam Eyes is easier to deal with. The tiny bristles really gets all the lashes. I will miss Glam Eyes, and will have to look for a good volumizing drugstore brand.

I've only used this once and MAYBE I'm a little too quick to judge this mascara, but this...is...AMAZING! I saw someone on YouTube say that it's a really great mascara and so I saw it at Target and bought it. The packaging definitely attracted me- it's SO pretty! xD. But overall, it's a really good mascara for lengthening (not so much thickening).

I bought this bc I read that it works well for short lashes bc of the bristles. At first, I liked it and thought it worked well but now I don't think so anymore. The one thing that turns me off the most is this is a really wet mascara. It takes longer than usual to dry. I am a very speedy person and want my makeup to dry asap. This product gave me mascara dots near my eyes once I close them after applying. I think the bristles do work but I just have really short lashes and it doesn't work too well. I think this would go well for those with long lashes though. I would not repurchase but I would recommend if you're looking to try a good drugstore mascara.

This is an aweful mascara. The wand is a brush/comb that seemed promising but it was a huge disappointment.

I bought this with a gift voucher I had. It came with the black khol pencil which is great. The brush came separate and was displayed in the package (like the Covergirl Lash Blast). I had it about 5mths before using it and I never opened the mascara. I just opened the package to use the pencil and it taped it after.

When I decided to use this mascara I was gravely disappointed. It was the driest formula ever. I'm sure I got a bad batch because that couldnt possibly be the formula. The color seemed almost charcoal when I purchased black. When I tried applying it to my lashes they could barely pick up the mascara. I had to throw this out after one use. It made no sense.

Stay away from this.

I personally didn't have a problem with this mascara, it's actually better than others I've tried. The packaging is cute, I'm not a fan of pink but I love black *black goes with everything* ;D It separates my lashs, lenghtens, and adds a bit of volume. It depends on how you master the brush, here's a tip: when applying it, rotate the brush. There are two different sets of "spikes", long separated ones for length, and short close ones for volume. I was kinda impressed with this mascara, I was playing basketball with some friends on a really hot day (I live in Vegas, it gets pretty warm here), and I noticed that the mascara didn't smudge or flake, even though I was sweaty from the heat XD I think that a mascara flakes depending on people's skin type or something, cuz some people have complained about flaking and I never have that problem :p anyways, this mascara is pretty good if you are looking for a neat natural look. The cons I have for it is that it doesn't thicken my lashes much, and I'm not too crazy about the brush either. But I think it's still considered a good product :)

*to cut down on clumps, try to wiggle the brush from root to tip when applying mascara
*to help your lashes look bigger and help them grow, try putting vaseline on your lashes (don't let it get in your eyes) at night and wash it off in the morning and you should see a difference ;)

I adore this mascara because it lengthens and separates my lashes wonderfully. Doesn't give much volume though. I'm not going to buy it again because it doesn't gold a curl. If it doesn't hold the curl then bleeh.

Right into the trash. The dry formula and ridiculous dinky brush made it impossible to even get the product onto my eyelashes. The brush was some sort of floppy silicone with exactly four rows of bristles that were about a millimeter long.

I thought with the design of the brush it would really deliver volume and definition, but it failed miserably. I found that the formula was oddly dry, which is strange for mascara. As a result of the dry formula it caused severe clumping, and didn't help with volume or definition at all. The packaging looks cheap because the pink printing on the tube fades. Will not buy again.

Really dry formula creating tons of flakes and clumps. Maybe it was past its expiration date and Duane reade was trying to get rid of it, but regardless, it shouldn't be THAT dry coming out brand new and air tight.

Opt for something else, ladies...

Like a lot of other people, I bought this mascara mainly because of the packaging.

I was looking for a good "regular" mascara for days when I care, but dont care too much. My normal mascara is pretty heavy duty and can be a pain in the behind to take off after a long day.

This isnt the best, or the worst mascara Ive ever used. you definitely have to work at it to get noticeable effects (2-3 coats). Its just a regular mascara. Its black and it makes your lashes a bit more defined. Ill definatley purchase again, because its a good regular mascara to have around.

This is a dry mascara, somewhat like Maybelline's Full 'n Soft but it does not thicken the lashes as well. Although, I purchased the Blackest Black, it took several coats to get a noticeable effect. Pros: During an extended outdoor painting session in muggy weather, this did not smuge or flake. It is easy to remove, too. Con: Way too subtle for me.

I got this mascara as a birthday present from one of my friends, it also came with the Rimmel kohl pencil- a must have!
The thing that I noticed was how amazingly cute it was! The black and pink case made it seem very girly and *glam* so I loved it at first sight.
I'm not sure about the exact price, but I've heard its around 5-7 $.
Onto the product.. the mascara wand was thinner, and had a little curve in it, so it applies pretty well.
The mascara combined with the wand made my lashes look longer, not so much voluminous. I really do love the mascara, but I bought it because it was supposed to bring volume, which I didn't see in it. That was about the one down fall for this product for me. But I will for sure buy it again! :)

No volume whatsoever. If you want spidery lashes, pick this up. If not, don't be sucked in by the cute packaging and nice sounding description.

I used this in the past and must have liked it since I snatched it up when it was 75% off at CVS. This tube was terrible. It was so dry that barely anything came out. My lashes WERE nice and separated, but how can there be clumps when there's practically no product? I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and say it must have been really old, hence the sale price, and I seem to remember liking it before. I wouldn't repurchase though just to find out.

This mascara didn't work at all for me! It failed to give me volume and it was a flaky mess! The brush would scratch up my eyes and it would barely even reach the outside corners of my eyes. When I applied it to my bottom lash line, I was left with cakey,smudge lines and I carefully applied it. I only bought the mascara for the cute packaging and the hype. DO NOT be deceived by the ads and the hype! This isn't worth your money.

Love the brush-small enough to get even the smallest lashes on my eyes. Felt it was good for long time wear. Really made my lashes look longer. Would buy this again.

I like it -- skinny little prickly wand that doesn't clump and separates, good for length building, not as much for volume, and doesn't flake on me. It's easy to grab when I'm in a hurry and need something fool proof -- when I don't have time to stand there and be meticulous about the application.
