This is my favorite mascara ever. It is the first brand I ever bought and have tried many others in the past few years, (Stila,Lancome, MAC, L'Oreal, Lise Watier, etc.)and while there were a few runner ups, this one will always be the best mascara for me. It really lengthens your lashes, can be built up (you can add on many many layers) and stays put, with no globbiness or flaking. The brush is perfect.

This mascara gives me a wonderful natural (but not too natural) look. I never get any clumps or flaking with this mascara. By the end of the work day there is very limited smudging.I'm the type of person who doesn't check the mirror the whole day and feel safe with this mascara. This is inexpensive and when on sale I can get it for $4! Also when I'm looking for more thickness in my lashes I coat this over greatlash.

I'm always on a quest for the perfect mascara and get hoodwinked into trying each new formula. But this is the best drugstore mascara available. It lengthens and plumps my lashes perfectly and is not clumpy or flaky. You must try it.

This is one of my favourite mascaras! It builds awesome length and thickness. I always end up coming back to this one. It sometimes begins to flake, but only after a very long day. Overall I find this to be one of the best mascaras.

In my opinion, this mascara is just as good as, if not better than, higher ends such as Lancome Defincils! Illegal Lengths has become my basic every day mascara.

I LOVE this mascara! It really makes my lashes look alot longer and thicker (with only one application, some times I go back and put a little extra on the end of my eyelashes). I would recommend this to anyone! =)

I like this mascara, but I think that it doesn't make my lashes any longer than any other mascara. Lancome Definicils lengthens it more than this one, but I guess if you want something with a drug-store price, that won't put a dent in your purse, then this one is not bad if you want some extra length and definition to your lashes.

This is the best mascara EVER! Most mascaras are too thick and weigh down the curl of my lashes or wears off during the day. This does not and keeps my lashes curled- amazing! I also love the lighter brown colors that this comes in. I buy the washable waterproof kind.

I've never been too crazy about Maybelline mascaras as I found them too drying for my eyelashes. Well, I was very pleasantly surprised! I have very short sparse eyelashes and this mascara went on very smoothly and lenthened them impressively. It also makes my lashes feel soft and not hard/dry as they can usually feel when the mascara dries. I will purchase this product again.

Yeah! I like this mascara! I hated Great Lash, so I was a little reluctant to try another Maybelline mascara. But I'm so glad I did - this is going to become a staple for me.

The mascara really lengthens and nicely separates with no clumping or flaking, and minimal flaking. It's not a thickening mascara, but wow - what long lashes!

I've been trying mascaras for ever, and this is the only one I think I would ever buy again. It makes my lashes way longer than they actually are, and it stays on. Plus, there's no real clumping.

Wow, what a great mascara! I got this in 'Sapphire Blue' for my navy mascara, and it's brilliant! Really makes my lashes stand out and itsn't stiff or clumpy. Also, the color is great.

This used to be a staple for me, but I found that when I tried it recently, it was clumpy and didn't go on smoothly at all! Maybe I've been spoiled by my Px False Lashes, but for a drugstore mascara, I wouldn't use anything but L'Oreal Lash Out.

This does an excellent job of lengthening my lashes! I have worn other mascaras for a while, but this is the one I always come back to. Great one!

This has become my new favorite mascara. I replace my mascara often, so I have a hard time spending more than $10 a tube. This formula lengthens my lashes wonderfully! It doesn't thicken very much, but I prefer a lengthening formula to a thickening one.
