Maybelline Colossal Mascara

This was my go to mascara for some time. Now I normally like plastic bristles but this mascara is an exception. Isn't too thick and doesn't clump up. Gives a "fake lash" effect without looking too fake. At this price, gotta love it! =D

Tips: Use the smallest area of applicator to get into the inner and outer corners of the eye.

A top fave

A good mascara is a definite must have for me, and this one fits my musts in a mascara: volume, lasting, easy to apply and value for money. It does give quite a full look and I must say if not applied properly (as with everything) you can end up with clumpy lashes. Its fantastic to wear both day and night, the brush isn't so bendy so its easier to get all the lashes. I especially love the diamonds one which gives your ladhes an added sparkle.

A mascara that I actually think works.

Love this mascara. I'm quite picky when it comes to my mascaras. Although I wasn't a fan of the Define-A-Lash by Maybelline, I love the Colossal. I have used it for a few years now, and it is still one of my faves, and my most used mascara. The formula isn't too wet, and therefore doesn't weigh my lashes down, which I hate because my lashes don't hold curls well. This mascara is my go-to mascara when I want defined and curled lashes, and I absolutely love the waterproof formula. The brush head is big, and distributes products nicely, and I find it can be used to either sweep straight upwards, or slightly to the side for a more doe-eyed effect. I think the 9x volume is a bit of an exaggeration, but I still think this mascara is amongst my top 5. Definitely a product worth trying, especially the waterproof one.

one of my fave

i love this mascara its one one the best ones i have ever gotten. It gives my eyelashes so much volume as well as making them long and without looking clumpy, which is exactly what a mascara should do:)

Meh.

While I was using this mascara I thought it was fabulous! - However when I went to repurchase I bought Rocket instead and have since realised how clumpy and flaky the colossal mascara was in comparasin. Definitely not a bad mascara! and if I was given a new one I would definitely use it, but for the price there are better mascaras out there!

Fantastic!

This is one of the best mascaras available today the brush is amazing and it gives great volume. The formula is non-flaking (unless the tube is getting a bit old) and is easily removed at the end of the day. This is my second fave mascara after Revlon's Photoready which I have only recently discovered. I have used about 5 tubes of this mascara so maybelline should definitely keep this around as it's a winner in my books.

Love this mascara

I love Maybelline mascara's they always deliver on claims..... Even though I never end up looking like the model on the advertising campaigns (they are obviously wearing false eyelashes). I am still happy with this product, it seperates my lashes and adds length and definition to my lash line. I have naturally jet black long, slightly curled lashes, so I don't need mascara for colour or length, it's really the definition I want. Maybeline never disapoints. Love this mascara and would definately trust this brand.

not for my lashes

this mascara wasn't as good as i wished it was for my lashes particularly. I have very straight long lashes and they are quite volumous to begin with i guess so maybe asking for more volume back fired?? because of my straight stubborn lashes the wand wasn't as flexible as i now realise works best for me. Found this a bit clumpy but could be fixed with an eyelash comb if you wanted a more natural look. not for me, but could be for you?!

Really good

I used this awhile ago and loved it! I haven't repurchased it since and I'm not really sure why. It gave me awesome volume and length, it was just everything you would want in a good mascara really. It also separates your lashes really well which is something I always look for, can't stand them to not be well separated. It also builds up layers very well without being clumpy.

Super.

Obviously this mascara was going to be great. I mean come on, not many can beat Maybelline at mascaras. I've had this since January last year an it is only now just starting to run out. It's non clumpy, gives lots of volume, separates and gives plenty of length. What more could you want in a mascara?? Oh and the packaging is adorable as always, Bonus ;)

Tips: To get right into the inner and outer corner lashes, use the tip of the brush by angling it to point towards them. The brush is quite big but any problems are easily combatted,
