Great Lash? More like One Lash (for me!)

The name 'Great Lash' is quite appropriate for this mascara, I feel, because that's pretty much the result that this mascara gives: one (okay, a few more than one) big ol' clumpy lash. Seriously, the clumping is awful with this. I don't know if it's the brush, the formulation (which is SUPER wet) or just me (possibly all three!), but the only way I can get this mascara not to clump is to apply it with a separate spoolie wand. Not a fan of this product, at all.

It does lengthen my (medium, fairly thick) lashes pretty well, and doesn't smudge or flake throughout the day. It's just the clumping and lack of, well, anything!, that ruins this mascara for me...

Doesn't meet my expectations

I started using this mascara about 2 months ago, and while it does a beautiful job of making my eyelashs long and black, I have found that it very easily leaves clumps of product on your lashes. However this can easily be removed by using a clean mascara brush... I like some of my other mascaras a lot more, but this is good enough for the small price.

Tips: I recommend using a clean mascara brush after applying to remove clumps, or use a clump free primer or clear topcoat before/after using maybelline great lash mascara

For perfect lashes!

I have been using this mascara for over a year now, and absolutely love it! It makes my lashes fuller, and longer and I have had various compliments since wearing it. I have recommended it to friends, and they also love it!

Tips: It is quite hard to get off, you will need a good eye makeup remover but it's worth it!

Wasnt 'great'

I bought the waterproof version and I had horrific panda eyes after an hour! It did give a little length... but definitely not worth walking around looking like mess all night.

Maybelline Mascara

Not my favourite mascara from maybelline, I dont like the brush as it left clumpy lumps and my eyelashes were sticky and clumpy and felt heavy. As for the mascara its self it is a mission to get off! Would recommend maybelline collossal

Tips: Use with loreal gentle eyes make up remover!

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara

Mascara is definitely a staple piece in my makeup bag. I will never leave the house without wearing it so I am generally quite critical with what mascaras I use. The Maybelline Great Lash was a reasonably good purchase, however I wasn't expecting much from my quick supermarket bargain in the first place. One thing I noticed straight away was its clumping, which is something it claimed not to do. Reading through the comments I'm not the only one who thinks this. Saying that, clumping isn't a major issue for me as I have quite thin eyelashes and prefer the extra bit of volume, unless it is excessive which the Maybelline one isn't. My main issue with the product is the struggle it is to get off. I found myself with black smudges under my eyes at the end of the day which were a real difficulty to remove. However I LOVED the length it gave my eyelashes, which was what made me wear it several time!

Tips: If you don't like clumping make sure all the clumps are off the wand before applying by wiping them on the sides. Apply lightly and build up.

Not worth the $20

I bought this as a cheap alternative after reading some good reviews of it in a magazine but it wasnt as good as other mascaras of a similar quality, really its worth spending $10 more to get something a bit more decent. A lot of it comes out and its really hard to get a nice even coat without it smudging somewhere. If you apply it very patiently you can get good results but its really not good for everyday use (as someone that loves using mascara - it would just annoy me). It has a weird brush too...kinda wish I bought another mascara really

Tips: Good when you're on a smaller budget

Mascara cheap alternative

This is okay during the day for a short time, as it smudges under the eyes and leaves black mascara. Would use heaps, better when applied lightly an less. Would rather buy a better quality even if you have to spend more.

Tips: Less us better.

Good colour but a bit clumpy

I liked at first how this went on and with really light coloured eyelashes it was a distinct improvement but unfortunately I made a bit of a mess and lashes became rather good friends with each other

Tips: Have a few cotton buds on standby to clean up with!
