Oh my dear God - NO. This is for the Super Sizer Fibers mascara. (there is no CG mascara called Fiber extensions mascara.) I couldn't even apply one coat of this crap to my eyes, it was that bad. I have no idea where the good reviews for this mascara are coming from, but the wand isn't even like a normal mascara wand. It has like, 3 little angled sides to it with very, very sparse fibers. When I pulled the wand out of the bottle, I honestly thought there was some mistake and that my wand was missing the applicator. It was like using a mascara wand without any brush tip - it just gobbed the mascara straight onto my lashes. It was so awkward and bad that I couldn't even finish a swipe, or else I knew I'd have to completely wash my eye makeup off. This is probably the first mascara I ever bought that wasn't even used once and it's going straight in the trash. What a waste of money. I still have the mascara sitting here next to me inside it's packaging because I feel that bad just throwing it away. But there is no way I can apply this without getting mascara all over my eyes. So weird. Stay away.

Other than my HG L'Oreal Telescopic, this Covergirl is also my favorite! I love this for its length and volume, also the blackness that it provides. My lashes look full but at the same time, they are natural. The con that I have with this one is that I have to build quite few layers before I get the lashes that I am looking for, while Telescopic provides me length and volume in a single swipe.

Wonderful DS mascara ! Don't look for any "fibers" though, you won't see any (remembering back to "fiber" mascara's in the 70's!) This unique brush both coats & separates lashes as you roll it on. Since this brush is so thin, you can really get to the roots of your lashes and get good curl application there, making your overall lash line longer and thicker and separated. Several coats gives me decent volume, but if I want more I just hit lashes again with another mascara. HG, especially for the price!

This is one of the few mascaras that actually "super sizes" my lashes like it says it will. You can layer it more and more for drama but I like the effect of only a few coats. I have very straight lashes and this doesn't do much to curl but once I've curled my lashes this really does hold the curl all day. I see a lot of length, volume, fan, but no clumps. It's one of my favorite mascaras because it quickly takes my lashes from oww to wow without a million coats. I wouldn't say the end results is like falsies or eyelash extensions but this is definitely the most dramatic mascara I've tried yet, drugstore or otherwise. You do have to layer a lot for more volume but it does give me volume, maybe not as much on the first coat as "volumizing" mascara like the lash sensational from Maybelline. Only cons is that it doesn't look as natural as others. However if your eyelashes are naturally nonexistent like mine, this is fab.

This is a beautiful mascara if you like drama but you have good lashes to start off with. It won't miraculously give you jlo falsies but what you do have will be winged out, separated, thick (without clumps) and gorgeous. My new HG!

This is the worst mascara I've tried in recent years. My favorite mascara is Benefit They're Real! I still purchase others just to see if any come close or exceed the results I get with my HG mascara. My natural lashes have great curl. The ends aren't very pigmented though. I like a mascara that lengthens and amps up the volume. This CG mascara gave me no added volume. I used it two or three times before discarding it. The formula just does not work for my needs.

I haven't been this impressed by a mascara in a long time! I transforms my lashes completely, and it does it all. Length, volume, curl, deep dark black, applies well (I love the brush and the formula doesn't clump). And the price is right. I hate paying over 30$ for a mascara only to find myself not entirely in love with it. Don't you? I'll report back about how it handles tears and flakes after a few weeks, but so far, it's a huge winner.

I like this mascara a lot. It lengthens and adds volume to my short and sparse lashes. Doesn't clump and doesn't smudge which is awesome for oily-lid chicks like me.

Love this mascara. I received this for testing purposes through bzzagent but I will purchase with my own money as soon as I run out. It makes my lashes look so long. It doesn't make them fuller but does hold a curl all day. Doesn't flake or smudge. The wand is different and there is a bit of a learning curve with it but once you get the hang of it your lashes will look like falsies. This is quickly becoming my favorite drug store mascara

This is my favorite mascara! It performs just as well as Benefit's Roller Lash and They're Real!, and Tarte's Tarteist mascara. It separates, lifts and elongates eyelashes. The black is a deep, dark black. The head of the brush is unusual, two sides (left and right) are almost flat but for one horizontal line of short, stubby bristles running across it. The other two sides (top and bottom) have somewhat longer bristles. The idea is to coat the lash with the "flat" side and comb through with the other. Amazing mascara.
