I have had good luck with this mascara. It gives me nice volume and length without looking fake. I have had no problems with clumping, this formula is very smooth. It lasts all day on me with no flaking, smearing, or chipping. I wouldn't call it spectacular, but it is the best mascara I have found so far and I will continue to buy it.

for some reason, this one *really* worked for me. It really pumped my lashes up, and I didn't have to use a whole lot, either! My one complaint is that it seemed to dry 'em out a little...

This was OK....personally I didn't notice much lengthening! The only good thing about this mascara is that it doesn't make your eyelashes stick together---hence, you don't have to use a lash comb to separate. This is good for a VERY natural look. Personally I like a little more ooomph!!

I am a huge, huge makeup snob. I spend money I don't have on products I don't need, just to be able to pull the latest thing out of my purse. However, this mascara is one place where I drop all of my bourgeois pretensions. It works as well as anything I've ever found and at a nice, nice price.

I love this mascara! I find it similar to Prescriptive's "Fake Eyelashes" mascara except it doesnt cost 20 bucks. It REALLY lengthened my eyelashes almost double! I find it sooooo much nicer than L'Oreal or Maybelline which hardly lengthened my eyelashes at all. Its definately my favorite low-end mascara.

I used this for a while but then I switched to something else and switched back and it didn't work as well as before. It was my fave mascara, too!

This is the only mascara that I'm satisfied with. The package may say "one coat", but you'd have to apply more than one coat to get the desired thickness. Since I wear contact lenses this mascara is perfect because it doesn't irritate my eyes like the other brands. It's long wearing and doesn't clump.

One Coat is an outright lie, but this will do a good job of building length and thickness. Fair. Mascara is a very important item to me so I will prefer my faves over this item.

This is a great mascara at a great price! To me, this compares to Clinique's mascaras (which are also a favorite). It does take about 2 coats to get the results I want, but overall, this doesn't clump, provides great color and shine, and really does lengthen the lashes!

Fairly good thickening mascara that doesn't irritate my eyes and stays on. THe only thing is that it doesn't take 1 coat for me to get my lashes as thick as I like them to be.

I bought this on sale for $3 and at first wasn't crazy about it, but lately i just love it. Non clumpy, good at seperation, and very good at lengthening. good deal, i would definitely buy it again. Not as dramatic as some, so i wear it during the day.
