description

This breakthrough bestseller reveals lashes you never knew you had! The specially designed brush features staggered bristles that grab close to the root, boosting length and volume beyond belief. The custom-domed tip uses precision bristles to lift, define, and curl even your tiniest lashes. With a glossy, jet-black, long-wearing formula, you’ll flaunt luxurious, silky lashes that won’t smudge, clump, or dry out.

I am surprised to see mediocre and mixed reviews here (mostly poor ones near the top). I'm on my 4th or 5th tube of the brown "They're Real" mascara color. I totally love it - it both thickens...

I got a sample of this and tried it several times. Just not a mascara for me. I found applying it hard to do without it looking clumpy and messy. (I like defined and separated lashes.) For the...

I have been using this mascara for years and it is one of my favourites make-up products. Really great when it comes to lengthening the eyelashes and the product doesn't flake off too. A little bit...

I loved the brush when I took it out of the package and it did lengthen and add a little volume quickly. But my problem was it clumped while applying and then once dry it flaked horribly. No...

I believe that mascara is very personal and that what work for one will not work for another. I have slightly curly lashes and find that my lashes can hold a curl really well unless the mascara...

First the good - it does give length to my sparse lashes and it holds a curl reasonably well. Makes my lashes look lush and natural, not fake. It also doesn't clump or smudge too badly. However,...

This wasn't the worst mascara I have used. I rarely dislike any mascara because I do have naturally long lashes, so a lot of mascara looks really nice on my lashes. This mascara was a little clumpy...

This is one of my favorite mascaras. I have trouble with mascaras smearing under my lower lash line-the dreaded "racoon eyes". This one NEVER does that! It really gives me great definition,...
