Maybelline Define-a-lash Mascara Review

I loved this mascara for the design of the wand. The formula itself was also good but didn't hold my eye lashes in a flick all day.

I really liked the look of the tube and the brush of this mascara. My lashes are more defined but clumping can still occur especially with more than 1 layer of mascara. The mascara is easy to apply and not too runny. Generally, a good beginner's mascara, nothing fancy.

I have thin sparse but black lashes that are longer than they look (very little pigment at the tips) so I was really hoping that this would volumize my lashes and help them to look as long as they are or longer. So the pros... My lashes are visibly longer, darker and separated Yay! Ophthalmologist approved (for those that have sensitive eyes or are wary about what they use around their eyes this is a big plus)

Cons... No volume! not water resistant (although mine didn't smudge and I didn't shed a tear I could see it being an issue)

I was a little disappointed with this mascara as I thought that because it was called 'define-a-lash' it would have defined my lashes more than it does. It is clump-free which is a good thing as clumps are the worse thing you want while applying mascara. I didn't like the applicator as it wasn't a brush as such and I felt like it made my eyelashes still together rather than separate them. When in Farmers, I brought some disposable mascara wands by Manicare and used these to apply the mascara and it gave better definition of my lashes and lengthened them a lot more. One thing I do like about the formula is that it is very easy to remove with a bit of face wash or soap.

I found that this was a good everyday or back-up mascara but I don't think that it really did what it claims to. I hardly got any volume on my lashes and I felt that it didn't define them singularly either. It didn't leave clumps per-se but I felt that my lashes tended to stick together a bit. It definitely wasn't a bad mascara, I will use it all up no doubt, but I think it'll be more of a back-up rather than a front runner.

Just got this mascara for free when i signed up at ilovebeauty.co.nz. It's just a generic, save, every day wear mascara. It didn't make my eyelashes jump off of my face, but it was smooth and there are no lumps!

I'm very fussy about mascaras as almost everything smudges on me by the end of the day - I think it's having oils skin that makes it smudge where your lashes touch your face. This mascara I got as a freebie and it's the best cheapie I've tried. It makes my lashes look great and only smudges a little by the end of the day. As long as you can check on it every few hours to get rid of smudges it's pretty good.

This mascara is great for length, volume, and density. It's a great, dark colour, and the formula isn't too sticky. However, I think the brush would be better if it were a bristled instead of a plastic wand.

lovely texture and applied well but id rather use as a base layer before applying a second layer of a better brand or range.

this was good for my lashes altho when it was first used i found it went on quite heavy onto my lashes, once i had used it for awhile it wasnt as heavy, it didnt smudge which is good, and washed off easily. it did make my lashes look lovely and long. i would use it again, just remove some of the excess stuff when i first use it.
