Best mascara ever

I usually use mac make up as I like the colour selection and the way the make up feels on my skin .BUT there will always be a bright yellow collosal mascara rolling around in my make up bag somewhere . I naturally have long eyelashes but am missing the volume . After I use this product I have the package deal !

Tips: This product also contains beeswax so it feels a lot nicer on your eyelashes and you don't get that cloggy feeling . To maximize your volume when applying the mascara move your brush in a vibrating motion from side to side then up the lash rather than just repeating strokes up the lash

Went lumpy

Right from the start my Maybelline mascara seemed quite lumpy, so I was always needing to wipe a bit off with a cotton bud when I was done. I have since changed to a different brand which is miles better but does cost a bit more- worth the extra expense though.

Tips: Buy MAC mascara instead, if your budget allows.

Absolute favourite!

I'm a sucker for Maybelline mascara - it might not be the most expensive brand, but they sure know what they're doing! I've been using Colossal Volume for a few years now, prior I would use Maybelline Falsies but this is so much better.

I love that it doesn't dry stiff and crunchy, my lashes stay softer and it doesn't all clump together. You really only need 1-2 coats.

I prefer the non-waterproof so I can wash it off easily in the shower. I've recommended this product on my blog before too!

Tips: Definitely curl your lashes before applying, apply right from the eye-line, wiggling side to side to the very tips. Don't do a second coat after it's dried or it will turn in to a clumpy mess - this is a one step wonder!

Maybeline

I liked this mascara but didn't love it. I love the brush though. I didn't find it made my lashes appear thicker but did add length and separated them too which I liked

Tips: Let coats dry in between applications. I found my lashes went quiet lumpy with product and the mascara went crumbly if you pile it on without drying in between.

One of my go to products

Definitely love this mascara. Love the cute yellow packaging and also like that this mascara doesn't clump, alot of mascaras that I have tried I do have that problem with them. I also adore the wand it makes it really easy to apply the mascara which is always a plus. Both this mascara and the falsies mascara are in my good books. Maybelline has definitely done a very good job with this product.

Most loved mascara!

I really love this one from the maybelline range. After using my eye lash curler, my lashes are ready for applying, it looks popping after applying the mascara and really stands out. I felt like I really didn't have to use false lashes just because it works the way it says.

Tips: Don't plump it too much, or be prepared to have clumpy eye lashes! and also curl your lashies before applying mascara!

Good mascara, even better brush.

This mascara definitely gives volume. The brush is fantastic, I love big brushes as it makes application less tedious. One layer of application is enough for me, I feel anymore and my lashes would clump. I do however get product transfer under my eyes after a hour or two. So I have to make sure I check my eyes after awhile.

I use this in tandem with lash stilleto :)

The colossal does exactly what is says, delivers colossal volume, which is great if you have long beautifully curly lashes which I, much to my dismay do not have. To combat this I first curl my lashes, apply a couple coats of maybellines lash stiletto followed by the colossal, result? Fab doll lashes. This combo works wonders for me bear in mind I have stumpy straight lashes and it may look a little ridic on better endowed girls.

Pumps up the volume, affordable price. Happy camper

Tips: May want to pair with a lengthening mascara.

As far as mascaras go.....

I like this mascara but I didnt feel it created collosal anything with one stroke. If I apply several brushes worth it gave a great look, but nothing that I would say stood out from the ordinary. As far as mascaras go this is a great every day wear, but If your looking for an evening WOW look then for me this wouldnt be my first choice.
