I too stocked up and bought like 6 of these at the dollar tree some time ago. I've been rationing them out, lol because I'm pretty sure its been discontinued and I do love it! It's a great everyday mascara (it doesn't give me a falsies look), it lengthens and volumizes, the lashes don't get hard after the mascara dries, and it doesn't smudge. The brush is very full and has a lot of soft yet flexible bristles. The formula is not too wet or dry, just right in my opinion. It has been well worth the dollar I spent on each tube, and I'm going to be sad when my stash runs empty!

Great affordable mascara, nice big brush, the packaging fades quickly but who cares

I purchased this in Black from Dollar Tree many months ago. This mascara is perfect for me. It's light weight and doesn't weigh my lashes down. It doesn't clump, especially after a few coats. My lashes are straight and kind of slant downward, they won't curl using a typical lash curler but this mascara, after only a coat, gives them a nice lift and curl! Like I said, this mascara is perfect for me! I just wish I had purchased several more of these while my local DT still had them.

Ok, this mascara is AMAZING! I found it at the DOLLAR TREE and was expecting something dry perhaps - but it was fresh, and how it made it's way to the dollar tree is beyond me but I'm so glad I snatched this up. It curls and seperates and just makes my lashes look super long and thick. I love this stuff -this is probably the 1st tube of mascara I've finished in it's entirety and I am purchasing this pronto before I run out. LOVE IT!

Amazing! Found mine at Target for around $9. I don't always use this mascara,because I usually use Tarte or my Lash Blast but this is amazing! Lengthens well and it looks stunning on my lower lashes which are short! Awesome!

Best mascara I have ever used and keep repurchasing, because it gets every single lash.

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME. It's definitely my HG. It's better than my Lancome. I'm Asian, but I don't have short lashes, however, they are very straight. I prefer natural looking lashes and this one separates my lashes beautifully and lengthening my lashes sky high. It holds curls well. It doesn't clump at all... not flaky! The formula is not too wet, not too dry. I just haven't found any problems with it. I hope they will not discontinue this. Honestly, I only saw it at Walgreens. I don't know why I never saw it at Target or Walmart. I will repurchase this (tomorrow)!!!

This is a nice mascara, well worth the dollar I paid for it at the Dollar Tree. In fact, I went back for several back ups. As the name implies, it gives a pretty natural look. One coat just darkens, separates, and defines lashes. But….multiple coats leave my lashes looking noticeably longer and thicker, but still soft and fluttery. I usually apply 3 coats (allowing for no drying time in between) and it never, ever clumps. The wand is ‘clean’ with well spaced bristles. I’m currently using ‘Blackest Black’ and it makes my lashes look dark, lush, and just pretty. It’s non-irritating, doesn’t flake, smudging is minimal, and it removes easily with my regular cleanser. Probably not a holy grail mascara for me (still though I'd repurchase, but probably only on sale) but I’m pretty satisfied with it, since I can use it for a variety of looks depending on how much effort I put into the application.

Edit 1/9/12 Upped the rating to 5! Been using this going on 3 months now, and I reach for it nearly every day (and I’ve got lots of mascaras to choose from)! It just gives me consistently beautiful, full & defined lashes without clumping. Best of all, it doesn’t smudge, even after a run. I stocked up on 5 tubes at the Dollar Tree, but I’m pretty sure its being discontinued (its on clearance at all the stores by me)

I'd run out of my Lash Blast and was in dollar tree when I spotted this. It was a total impulse buy but I figured for a dollar I couldn't lose. I was amazed by this mascara! It's one of the few that does just what it says. My lashes looked long and almost twice as thick but without looking clumpy, fake or spider leggy. It really was the perfect amount of volume and length. It's a fantastic everyday mascara because it's not overly dramatic, just really pretty and natural. It didn't flake or smudge either. I went back and stocked up the next day so that I'll have some on hand for a long time.

Better than false eyelashes! I love this mascara. The name suggests you would get a natural looking eye, but after two full coats, I have incredibly long lashes that have loads of volume. A few cons: my eyelashes feel heavy, the product is very wet and takes some time to dry, also the applicator brush has extra long bristles which makes getting it down to the lash root a challenge. I just won't repurchase this mascara, I plan to clear the shelf.

Buying this product 2 years ago and never finding again was devastating to me but I finally found it and I was relieved to see it on the shelf again BUT after 2 weeks it started to clump which did not happen before. I think the brush was too feather-like to handle the liquid and overall it started to make my eyelashes clump and had to throw it out after spending $11NZ it wasn't such a loss money wise but it was more of a shame because remembering 2 years ago it was natural and seperated my eyelashes perfectly. What a shame is all I have to say.

Well, natural sure is right! It defines my eyelashes just enough. No real volume, or length. Just bare bones, separation and softness. It gives decent color, and kind of holds a curl.

For the money though, not that great.

I bought this because I liked the idea of a mascara without parabens and other nasties, and it is actually reasonably priced (around $10-$11, I think) and locally available-I found mine at the grocery store. It comes in Black, Blackest Black, and Brownish Black-I have been using the Black. The consistency is rather dry, not too gloppy, and is easy to build up with a couple of coats. The brush is a typical long and straight variety. It made my lashes look very feathery and soft, without any stickiness-I didn't even have to comb through to separate them as I usually do. If you would like a daytime look that isn't too over the top or dramatic, this is the product for you. The only fly in the ointment to me is that I wish they had a waterproof option, but the other side of that is that it is very easy to remove. Worth the trial, and I would definetly buy it again.
UPDATE: I've been using this for a few days now, and the pollen count has been very high during this time. This mascara has stayed put admirably, even on the worst days when my eyes were literally overflowing with tears. Though it is not waterproof, its lasting ability is above average, even given my oily eyelids and allergies, and it is still working well for me without a lot of sticky buildup. I will definetly repurchase.

PROS: VERY natural. Pretty inexpensive. Washes off easily when removing.


CONS: Flaked kinda easy. A little too natural for me.


APPLICATION TIPS: Shiseido's primer (even the new one) helps this stay on MUCH longer without flaking. I am a recent convert to using Shiseido's popular curler too.


ALTERNATES: Jordana's Volumizing mascara and Loreal's Voluminous Million Lashes give me volume and length that lasts a long time without flaking. If you already have a good amount of lashes or good length of lashes, you may like CoverGirl Last Blast Fusion.

This mascara is pretty nice. It doesn't dry out my lashes, making them brittle, or irritate my eyes. It's not amazing, as I haven't used it, or gone back to it in a while, but it was nice at the time. It's probably expired now, and I doubt I'd buy it again.

Very happy with this for a d/s item, it really does length & volumize the lashes. The blackest black is best for that smoky eye, it does get rather clumpy quick and smelly fast. By that time you should be getting a fresh one , so I still have gone through 6 tubes.

I was really impressed with this mascara at first. I was surprised at just how amazing the color looked. I was somewhat impressed with the length it provided. It really does stretch the lashes, but that is where it stops. This gives absolutely no volume. I liked that the mascara looked ok for the first few hours, but then it started to flake. I have never had that issue before so I was kind of surprised. The biggest disappointment was in taking it off. This left me with horrible raccoon eyes. I had such a hard time with getting this mascara off. Just not worth the trouble. I spent more time getting this mascara off then I did getting the rest of my makeup off.

Of the "healthier" mascaras I've tried, this one is my favourite. I got mine in blackest black and this nicely separtes the lashes and coats them with noticeable colour. My lashes look moist, lifted and defined. This is the only of the more natural mascaras that deosn't smudge and leave me with racoon eyes at the end of the day. Guess that might mean maybe it's not so "natural" afterall ..... ;)

My big complaint is that they've discontinued the item here in Canada! :(

this gives you a natural look, which is fine for me. however what I do not like is that it flakes, and by the end of the day I have no mascara on.

Idk if it's because I first started using this in the summer, but it flaked insanely when I used it the first time for school.
