I love UD eye shadows and I decided to try this mascara. I regret deeply that I paid this almost 25 €. I like packing, it`s not look luxury product, but it feels good in your hand, because rubber surface. I also like rubber brush, it`s easy to use.

Mascara in itself is just terrible! It`s dry and clumping easily. You cannot put this many layers, because clumping. It`s didn`t made my lash longer or thicker. After put this my lash looks terrible dry and clumping. To top it all, it not stay. After ten minutes it rustled on the cheeks. Just terrible product and too expensive.

Does well in terms of lengthening, adds some volume as well.
However this is a very heavy mascara and doesn't curl my lashes at all.
It also drips and flakes, but I apply a mascara top coat over it and it's okay.
Not great though, won't be buying this again.

I thought this would be awesome but it was NOT
I got it for like $32 and it was not worth it at all! Disappointment!!!!!!!!
It didn't lengthen or curl. The onlty thing it sorta did was thicken. But my lashes were plenty thick then ... so :/

Ok, so I'm going to keep looking for a worthy mascara. This is just average and I can't justify the price. I mean I'm not cheap and willing to pay big bucks for make up, but I want it to live up to that price then. I will keep using this for a couple months then look for something better. :(

It was a little clumpy, didn't do much for lengthening or thickening my lashes and my lashes are average. Maybelline Great Lash is probably better than this and a ton cheaper. boo

the one good thing is that it didn't make my eyes itch. So that is a plus.

This was just really average to me and not worth the price. It clumped a little when I put it on and flaked after about 4-5 hours of wearing. It also didn't add much drama to my lashes. I would not buy this again.

After years of avoiding mascara because drugstore mascaras disappointed me too much, my friend introduced me to the Skyscraper mascara and I've been using it since. I don't need dramatic looks - just wearing it for everyday and to enhance my thin lashes. It is expensive but I don't mind the splurge.

This mascara is one of favorites. I have short, naturally curled lashes but this formula lengthen and at volume.

I do use a lash primer with all my mascara(Estee Lauder Lash Plus Primer).

I'm basing this review of a deluxe sample from Sephora, so I'm not sure if this has anything to do with my negative comments about this product or not. The formula seems incredibly dry, almost as if the tube is old. I'll give it the benefit of the doubt, this may be due to something with the sample packaging that isn't a problem with the regular size. The brush is a little difficult to get in and out as well. Apart from that, it's a good every day mascara. It doesn't do anything amazing for my lashes, but it does add a little length and volume to them, just enough so that my lashes don't look too bare against my eye makeup. I adore the look and feel of the packaging, the purple-on-black design and the rubberized feel, but that has nothing to do with the product performance.

Awesome mascara! I got this in a duo package with a 24-7 glide on pencil at sephora for 14 dollars which is great! Although I got a mini side of this, I could obviously still tell what it's like. I really like it. It gives me doll-like lashes that are long, non-clumpy and thick. I already have pretty long lashes but this just enhances them and makes them look so great! I know its expensive but I am still working on the sample and I will be for a while. If you are willing to invest in a great mascara I would highly suggest this!

I feel in love with this mascara because I do not like mascaras that volumize so much to where you have spider lashes. Gives major length & doesn't clump. Works wonders for me & I work @ a makeup counter that sells all brands that you would find in Sephora/Ulta.

My favorite mascara of all time

Overall, GOOD...but did not impress me much as it has others.
I think this mascara is great for those who are looking to define their lashes with lots of control. The brush is awesome, the mascara is great, it's just not for my lashes personally. I find myself applying this mascara twice, as the masacara goes on a thin because of the short, stiff bristled brush. It goes on really close, and it's just a really well-made product. I just doesn't give me the thickness I'm looking for. It does provide more for definition and length.

I like it for now. I just wish I wouldn't have spent so much money on it because I sadly prefer my Lash Blast by Cover Girl over this.

I would try it in the store if at all possible before you buy it. Maybe it will work wonders, but save your money and find out before you buy.

I really love this mascara, It makes my lashes look very long and well defined. It doesn't give a huge amount of fullness to the lashes so i tend to apply two coats but it lasts for ages. The packaging is very pretty and i love the brush.
I would buy this again.

Eh...this stuff is pretty average to me, so given the price, it's just not worth it. I think it's good if you are mostly looking for length, and not much volume, and maybe if you are looking for a more natural, and less dramatic look. I chose to return this, since I can get the same results from several drugstore mascaras.

Firstly, I don't understand why this mascara got such low ratings here! It's my favourite mascara so far!!! It does what it claims. It's very easy to control and doesn't clum my lashes.

I don't usually put mascara on my lower lashes because it tends to smudge at the middle of the day. However, with this UD mascara, I do both upper and lower lashes and the result is AMAZING! They are lengthened, thickened and separated very nicely.

I love it very much! The only downside is that it's pretty expensive. I usually prefer drugstore mascaras. It apparently exceeds my price range. Having said that, it's still my favourite mascara I've ever tried!

I got this mascara as a gift about a month ago and have been using it on and off since. I really love this mascara. I like to use a lot of mascara for differing effect and this gives me good lash definition and fullness. I'll probably purchase it again.

Good product that does a decent job with darkening the lashes. Fair job at volumizing and lengthening. Doesn't separate as much as I'd like it to, but the formula is easy to work with. Espeically good when used on the bottom lashes.

Won't purchase again just because of the price. Some drug store finds are comparable.

i picked this one up at the request of an ulta sa who was wearing it and her lashes looked great. so i took a chance on it even tho i have major baggage where it comes to op dept store mascaras., most are so obscenely priced and acceptable equivalents can be found for much cheaper usually. it did work well for me the for about the first two weeks i used it, but then it started flaking like mad....that was the dealbreaker for me, but don't let my opinion deter you from trying it. i may have gotten an older tube - who knows., but for the $ they charge for it i'm not willing to try that crapshoot and go buy another tube to only to get 2 weeks out of it again.

Terrible mascara. So sad I wasted money on this. Clumps and flakes. Now only spending money on drugstore mascaras.

I never really like buying higher end mascaras. I don't see the point in investing my money in something that might smear or flake right when I put it on. I got this in a sample size, and I really liked it! The brush is a very unusual shape, but it gave me great length, volume, and curl, the latter being what I look for the most in a mascara, since my lashes are pretty much stick straight. The only things I didn't like about this mascara were that it would flake after a while, just a bit, and it dried out fairly quick. However, I would still repurchase, as it made my lashes look like falsies.

Since choosing to go cruelty free last year my mascara options have been somewhat limited (not a bad thing) and Urban Decay became the obvious brand to turn to. Skyscraper has a good dark black colour, lengthens my lashes nicely, builds up a nice volume without too many coats and doesn't flake all over my face like most other mascaras. I don't notice the curling effect they promise but aside from that I do love it. I used to have a number of mascaras on the go for different effects but this has become a one stop shop and is the only mascara I now use; to enhance lengthening and separation I make sure to thoroughly wipe the excess from the wand and if I want volume for a night out I don't wipe the excess until I'm doing the second coat and I get real va va voom lashes.

It takes some manipulation and I still need my lash curlers but this is certainly the best mascara I have tried.
