A Classic Favourite

This has been one of my favorites for a long time and it's one of those great mascaras that have been around for years!

I first used this product years ago and then began experimenting with other brands and different formulas and completely forgot about this one until recently.

I now use Great Lash in “Blackest Black” on a daily basis. The funky pink and green tube makes it easy to spot in my make-up bag and the tip of the brush is perfect to use when applying mascara onto lower lid lashes.

I find it glides on smoothly, without flaking and adds length and volume (if enough coats are applied). It also washes off easily, so I don't lose lashes like I do with waterproof formulas.

The narrow brush prevents mascara from accidentally ending up on your eyelids (above your lashes) and makes it easy not to stick the brush in your eye. I tend to do this often with larger, rounder mascara brushes.

Tips: To get more volume on your lashes, simply apply a few more coats of mascara. For best results, always do one eye at a time and don't let the mascara dry between coats as this will cause it to clump. Start at the base of your lashes and wiggle the wand upwards, towards the tips. Continue brushing through and wiggling the wand until you are satisfied with the results. If your mascara does clump or flake, it means that probably starting to dry out in the tube and needs to be replaced.

Great everyday mascara

I use this mascara for day to day use, its light and easy to apply. It has a great consistency when first opened but after it has been open for a while I find it goes clumpy. The brush is unique and easy to use for optimum results. The packaging has been the same since I can remember, I like it the bright green and bright pink.

Tips: Its not waterproof!

One of the BEST around

This is my go-to mascara when the others I've been trying run out or just become meh. This is one of my absolute favourite mascaras and I think everyone should try it at least one. It's not clumpy, it's super dark and gives great length and volume.

Tips: It isn't waterproof but that's good as it means it comes off easily :)

a good ol classic

This is one of the first mascaras i have bought for myself, i always seem to have some in the back of the cupboard or deep in my makeup bag. I tend to use it more when i have run out of another brand as i find its quite thick and hard to get off with just water or a cloth and will take eyelashes out if i try this. Other than that theres nothing wrong with it , i like the brush shape its quite easy to get into the corner of your eye and gets evenly distributed .

Tips: i sometimes after its gone use the brush with other mascaras that have brushes that are tricky

Great Mascara

I love this mascara it is the best I have ever tried. I have naturally long eyelashes and this is the only mascara I have found that covers them really well without making a mess. I have tried numerous other expensive mascaras and have been so disappointed with them as they end up rubbing off under my eyes but this mascara doesn't do that. Maybelline Great Last dries quickly and is easy to apply. It lasts all day long but is also easy to take off at the end of the day. And the fact that it is very reasonably priced is a bonus.

Old Fav

Love this mascara and have for a long long time. It is great value for money and make my eyes look amazing! It is nice and dark without getting smudgy throughout the day. If you want dramatic eyes for a low price then this is for you. It also doesn't run when it gets wet, so no stinging panda eyes! It is a great everyday mascara but, just like a little black dress, can be used to dress you up for the evening too.

Old Faithful

I used to use this a long time ago, and then I decided a more expensive mascara was really what a nearly 30 year old should have... only to be disappointed. After spending $50-$90 on tubes of mascara that promise the earth but are smudgy, don't do much in the way of coverage or just aren't lovely and inky I went back to my cheap and cheerful pink & green tubed wonder. This mascara is a winner because it goes on easily, stays on, is nice and dark but still comes off at the end of the day without a fight. The fact that it is easy on the pocket is just a big bonus!

Tips: Uncle Bills and Postie Plus regularly have this as a parallel import in twin packs for less than the price of a just one else where and if you have one in the cupboard and compare the ingredients they are the same!

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara

This has got to be my all time favourite mascara. I've used many different mascaras over the years, all different brands and all claiming to do something amazing, but this is the only one i have found to do what it says it will! I've been using it for years now, and don't plan on stopping anytime soon, the fact that it's so cheap is an added bonus for sure!

Tips: I do find if i apply a second coat straight after my first that it does tend to clump my eye lashes together, i wait a few minutes for the first coat to dry (even though they say not too) and then do the second coat. Gorgeous lashes in no time :)

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara <3

I love this mascara.This would have to be one of my all time favorite mascara.I find this works really well for my eye lashes.

Easy to apply on the lashes and the corners. Give my eye lashes great length & its super dark which is really good.

I would definitely recommend maybilline great lash mascara. Sometimes there's make-up sales going on & you could get the twin pack for a bargain.

Best colored mascara

Fine, so that is the only colored mascara that I have been using. I'm so happy that I tried it because I didn't wear mascara often. But after using this, I wear it almost everyday. The blue color is really light, you won't be able to see it unless you look closely or you are under the light. Best thing is it is waterproof, I sometimes accidentally wash my face but it stays. It is very easy to apply and remove. Just gently wipe it with the makeup remover, it comes right off. Unlike other mascara I used to use, some were really hard to come off. If you accidentally have some on your skin, you can just gently clean it with you finger, it will come right off. Unlike other, you have to powder it to fix it.

Tips: Gently curl your eyelashes before putting on mascara.
