I had such high hopes and visions of batting sex kitten eyes at my husband. The mascara was great, for about 3 hours. By lunchtime is had smudged under my eyes and not in a good way. It is not worth the money as there are many better , cheaper drugstore brands.

I had high hopes for this, but it didn't do anything special for my lashes. The reason I gave it such a low rating, though, is because it flakes so bad!! My eyes were stinging like crazy, because of that. Not happy with this mascara at all.

Oh how I wanted to like this mascara. However, the name is misleading to say the least. I get no length and very little coverage all around with this mascara and it is in no way worth the price. Even the packaging is a disappointment.

Does wonders for making my lashes appear fuller however, for some reason, as this mascara ages, I get a terrible eye reaction, they swell big time so tossed it. Never in my life has a mascara made my eyes react like this one so unfortunately, it's a thumbs down from me.

Ugh, this stuff is terrible. I have bought it twice, and hated it both times. I agree with the previous reviewer that the BRUSH looks like it will be great, but then i go to apply, and it's just so not great. Even when it brand new and visibly wet on the brush, it applies like 6 month old, crusty, dried out mascara - applying a chain of tiny little flakes on my lashes. Then an hour later those flakes are all over my face. And I cannot get an even application. And it doesnt create a nice fan, but rather the lashes look just...bad. Bad. Hate it.

Blekh. Did nada for me...I gave it several chances in hopes that perhaps it would improve after a couple of months. Sometimes when a mascara dries out on me, it actually performs better but this was not the case this time. The brush looks like it would be one that would work so perhaps it's the formula but I like to see pretty immediate results after one coat of mascara- this one you barely notice it with one coat and ironically with 2-3 coats, it made me look like I had 5 lashes clumped together. L'Oreal's Voluminous is much, much better.

I bought this mascara on QVC a while back. It was a two pack special, so I thought "why not? I'll use one and send one to my Mom". Well, it was my first Prescriptives purchase...and my last. I tried the mascara one time. I loved it! Loved the brush, loved the voloume & thickness, but I didn't love the fact that it was under my eyes in less then an hour. I quickly packaged it up and sent it back. So disappointed!!!

Love, love, love everything about this mascara! Gives me really long, full lashes and lasts all day long. Doesn't flake off and get into my eyes like many mascaras do. It's on the pricey side, but I love it so much I don't care! I'll give up a cup of coffee a day to pay for it.

Like everyone else I am constantly looking for the perfect mascara. I have very long lashes, but they are lacking in fullness. This mascara definitely helps them look fuller, and natural, but I have to give it 3 lippies because I do find that it dries up quickly. Also, I feel you can get the same results from Max Factor 2000 Calorie at a much cheaper price. I do like this better than Definicils

This mascara gives a very natual look. I hope the color (Black) could be a little more intense as it is not black enough for me. It does smudge, but to a lesser degree compared to most other mascaras I tried. I does not weigh down my eye lashes.

I love this mascara! The brush is really full (the way I like them), and the formula isn't too wet, either. I tried Lancôme Definicils, and it was so wet it uncurled my eyelashes. I don't find this mascara to flake off at all. It stays put for me until I take it off. I highly recommend it.

I bought this as part of a set on QVC. Awful mascara- I'm going back to Maybelline Great Lash. It does give great fullness, perfect for a night out... IF you're only going out for a couple of hours that is! I find it really flakes off badly. So badly in fact that it made my eyes red and irritated with the flakes irritating my contact lenses. Terrible... I'll never purchase prescriptives again.

I was very pleased when I received this mascara after ordering a prescriptives "package" off QVC. I consider my eyelashes to be my very best feature and yet I have searched everywhere for one that actually lenghtens, defines, and doesn't clump or flake. This is it for me!! This mascara works beautifully, and I really have tried everything. This is a good product for people who want to accentuate lashes. Not heavy (like great lash) or flaky. I have not tried the waterproof (and don't know if they even have it) But overall, very highly recommended. I took off one lippie because it doesn't seem to change the overall fullness of my lashes, just lengthen and define, but that was what I wanted. It gives your lashes a deep, wet, black look that really almost looks like false eyelashes!

i was in ♥ with the discontinued eyelash curling mascara that Px made, so i thought this would be the next best thing. boy was i wrong. while the packaging is pretty and i like the no-slip-grip on the applicator, the mascara itself sucks. it clumped like crazy, and even while i was applying it on my top lashes, it clung to my bottom lashes as well! how weird, that's never happened. and on top of that, it smudges like crazy. anyway, i'll use it till i can't stand it anymore, and i'll never buy it again.

This mascara definatly make it look likr I've got false eyelashed on. It looks really good. I'm not sure the cost justifies repurchasing though. I'll try other mascaras and possibly repurchase if I don't find one I like.

I only gave this product three lippies although I would probably buy again. Perhaps it was just the particular tube I purchased, but I think that it dried out rather fast and you need to be quite careful with application. Overpriced. However, the first few times I used it, I loved it--which is why I would consider re-purchasing somewhere down the road. From reading the MUA reviews about mascara, I am curious about doing the Sheseido curler/Shiseido lash primer/Pout mascara technique.

Prescriptives (Px) False Eyelashes does lengthen, albeit not much, and it does volumize, too. It gave a very pretty look for the first five minutes. Then, like what happened to me with MB Sky High Curves, I developed awning lashes!! Px FE totally wilted my ShuShi curl, to say the least. By lunchtime, it was like I hadn't curled at all.

That was when I also noticed the blanket of little flakes under my eyes. Now, in all fairness, either the formula is verrry dry, or my tube must have been sitting around at the makeup counter for AGES before finding its way into my hot little hands. I had to work it like crazy before getting any action on the brush. The brush itself is very nice; a "typical" pinetree volumizer, but the bristles are dense, closely spaced, and not too bushy. It worked very well on the bottom lashes and was very easy to use. I loved the packaging, too. The plastic tube the tube comes in (LOL!) is also a nice touch, and I especially loved the contoured, rubberized handle.

I'm tellin' ya, I really wanted to love this. And I did, for five whole minutes. LOL! Unfortunately, later attempts did nothing to change my opinion or the performance of this mascara. After trying all three Px mascaras, I can safely cross this brand off my list. :P
