Good product. Definitely does what it says but is a wee bit clumpy and smells quite strong initially but that fades. Lasts well and didn't end up on my face.

Reviews
Tips: Comb through at least a couple of coats to get rid of the clumps.
Love this mascara, I’m not a fan of waterproof as it’s too hard to get off at the end of the day, however this is a great and affordable mascara that does not transfer and stays all day. I have trouble with many brands melting into my lower lash line and eyelids but no issues with this! Can be clumpy and lashes will tend to look thicker rather than longer.
I have used many Mascaras but this is the perfect one I was looking for. I have naturally long Lashes but I needed one which gives more volume and This maybelline The colossal is the best. Now I use it on daily basis. Thanks Maybelline
Tips: For daily wear single coat is perfect and for partying or any event I like double or triple coating.
My go-to mascara. This is a very wet mascara, so if you like your mascara more on the dry side, this product may not be for you, however it does a great job at giving volume and giving a luscious looking lash look.
Tips: Use a lengthening mascara first, then apply this mascara to give you the best looking lashes.
Good mascara, a bit clumpy sometimes and doesn't smudge. Lasts me through the day and doesn't come off in school air. I prefer to use the sheglam one but this one is my sub. Pretty good!
I am normally THAT girl that can't put on mascara very well. I normally end up with mascara on my brows from messing it up (which looks like I tried to do a special polka dot feature on my face and failed miserably) and I have a strange application technique that involves batting my eyelids to move my lashes over the brush to apply mascara = moving my lashes rather than the brush. Perhaps I have a phobia of mascara? That's a discussion for another day I'm sure.
I do however LOVE this mascara. It's my daily use mascara and only takes 1-2 coats to get really long, thick lashes.
The Unit - The brush is well shaped and easy to manuvere, the container is easy to use and hold in your hand. It's also HOT yellow so easy to spot in the bottom of your handbag or make up bag. Especially when your in a rush.
The Application - Using my "special" technique the mascara glides on easily and one coat of the brush will do an entire eye - top and bottom lashes. Go another coat to thicken your lashes. Don't forget - Let. It. Dry. for multiple coats. If you don't you will end up with a hot mess of clumpy lashes like dying spiders on your face.
The Finish - Long, thick lashes. Go the black for really stand out night time lashes, and the black/brown for day time. The black really pops! I teamed the black with a bronze shadow for night time with black upper eyelid liner and my lashes looked amazing.
Tips: One coat will give you long lashes, two coats will give you long, full lashes. So do three coats if you dare and go large!
Make sure you take it off at the end of the day (or night) - I can personally recommend "Total Clean" Maybelliene eye make up remover as this mascara can be a bit trickier to get off - water or a make up remover wipe will not cut it here. If you don't take it off, expect to be Napisan'ing your pillowcase every morning!
I used to buy this mascara all the time, not sure why I stopped! Maybe it's because I received so many freebie mascaras recently. I always found this mascara to be great at volumising my lashes, especially good for when you are going out at night. I'm currently using another maybelline mascara at the moment but when this runs out I'm going to be buying this one again!
This mascara definitely does what it claims to do. The brush is large which is perfect for creating lots of volume. It is easy to remove as well. All around great mascara!
I don't use mascara often but the next time I buy/use one it would probably be The Colossal. I love that the brush is big- it makes it a lot easier to put on and it allows you to cover your lashes easily. It allows you to create really good volume. I like that the formula doesn't get clumpy. I usually do not wear mascara because I find it quite uncomfy, especially because I wear glasses. I like that when I wear this mascara I don't get the uncomfortable feeling. It goes on nicely and comes off nicely.
Tips: Build up your mascara to get them really long and to get them to be really voluminous. Add one layer, wait until it dries and add another layer if you wish to.
This is a really good Drugstore Mascara. The formula is very wet making it easy to apply and it really lengthens the lashes without clumping up. It doesn't thicken the lashes that well so I would say this is good for a more natural everyday look. It doesn't flake or smudge off during the day. It is also good for my sensitive eyes.
